Experience with Nessus

It helps reporting missing critical patches that can cause security flaws. It helps security analyst to find out vulnerabilities and gives solutions, criticality score and where that vulnerabilitiy exist.
What do you dislike about the product?
Scan plugins are not customisable and it is difficult for the teams to write new/adapted plugins to detect or scan for vulnerabilities the product doesn't cover. When we get the report from Nessus most of the vulnerabilities are false positive and we need to re-verify them manually.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Nessus is the finest tool for vulnerabilitiy scans, in fact it provides discoveres and more importantly correct findings, because it is focused on scanning the system's and application and it doesn't perform pentration testing or exploit vulnerabilities with thousands of pulgins updated on a regular basis.
