Verified User Anonymous Chose Vulcan Cyber (discontinued) I wasn't here at the time when the company compared different vulnerability management platforms so I'm not sure on the reasoning and difference between the 2. It could be that the team went through different choices and found Vulcan to be the best fit. It's hard for me to say … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Vulcan Cyber (discontinued) My role is not in charge of selecting more services or products like Vulcan. I just use them as part of my daily responsibilities. Maybe other roles can give more feedback about this. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Vulcan Cyber (discontinued) Nucleus Security was missing some connectors and was more focused on risk prioritization than ticketing automation. Seemplicity had a different billing method that may have ended up being more expensive. Also a younger app. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Vulcan Cyber (discontinued) Vulcan Cyber has a more mature platform catered for enterprise customers compared to Nucleus.

User Testimonials
	SecPoint Penetrator Vulnerability Scanner	Vulcan Cyber (discontinued)
Likelihood to Recommend	No answers on this topic	We use Vulcan Cyber to help with the technical debt accrued over time with systems that were not maintained as well as they should be. To combat this, we use the campaign feature to keep a running tab on every system to ensure it is brought up to standards and maintained. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	No answers on this topic	The user interface makes it very easy to use. It provides a clear picture and helps us to make decisions. It offers automation and risk visibility. Incentivized MC Michael Cerruti Data Analyst Read full review
Cons	No answers on this topic	Deduping of assets could be better. The weighting of vulnerabilities is hard to describe to non technical executives. The Business Groups and Tagging needs improvement. Or at least allow tags to be removed if not needed. Now they are static from the API feed. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	No answers on this topic	Vulcan was easier to implement with our existing Security environment. The UX and UI were more intuitive and user-friendly. While SOAR is a super solid product, for our business Vulcan made more sense. It was more of a natural fit for a rapidly-expanding company in a hyper-growth phase using Edge technology. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	No answers on this topic	Allows much better prioritizing of which assets are most vulnerable Allow a better understanding of what assets are actually under real threat vs. what is assumed to be vulnerable, but the real world fact is the system would be hard to reach internally, so it's not as vulnerable.
