Tenable's response to folks upset at AWOL features: A 150-emails-a-minute spam storm

There are many options

Either you work for Tenable or you don't know about vulnerability scanners. Qualys is a lot bigger than Tenable and it sells an excellent vulnerability scanner (with more features than Nessus and with less false positives than Nessus), Rapid7 also sells an excellent vulnerability scanner, Outpost24 also. Just Google it or maybe you won't even try it because you already knew and are here on "damage control". At least, try to know the industry before you open your mouth.

We are done for good with Tenable

We were planing to buy new licenses and renew several licenses, thanks to these news we won't do it. Simply put, Tenable cannot be trusted even if they reverse the decision to remove the API and multi-user support. On top of that, we were tired of chasing false-positives with Tenable but we still used it because of the API and multi-user, now that we won't have those features we are done for good with Tenable. To add insult to the injury, Renee's post only makes thing worst because or they don't know how to mask their intentions of they are simply treating the customers as if the customers are naive. Good riddance, Tenable only made the competition a lot stronger and more reliable. An advice to Tenable: Don't even try to reverse your decision, it will make things only worse and you know it.
