Alternatives Considered	Microsoft No answers on this topic	Tenable We decided to go with Tenable due to its robust reporting capabilities and competitive pricing vs its competitors. While all tools are very similar in regards to scanning capabilities we prefer Tenable SC's user interface. We also like the option to have both on-prem and cloud with theirs. Tenable io product as well. Incentivized Joevanne Velez Senior IT Security Engineer Read full review
