We use the following criteria to evaluate this product:

Cost considerations

Licensing is per asset and only covers analytics, so organizations must still fund separate scanning tools. Optional modules for application or remediation insights add more line items and push the total higher than integrated suites. The higher per-asset spend and extra fees weaken the overall cost-value balance compared with peers.

Cost considerations

Functionality

Cisco Vulnerability Management depends on external scanners for finding issues, so native discovery and authenticated coverage vary by integration. The product provides risk-based scores and opens remediation tickets in tools like ServiceNow or Jira, then checks that fixes are applied. Because it lacks built-in scanning but offers solid prioritization and workflow, overall functionality sits mid-range among vulnerability management tools.

Functionality

Compatibility

Cisco Vulnerability Management offers API-based connectors for major clouds, container tools, CMDBs such as ServiceNow, and SIEMs like Splunk, with SAML SSO built in. Coverage spans most operating systems through data ingested from common scanners, yet a few edge environments still need custom scripts. This puts its integration reach above most peers, though not quite at the “works everywhere out of the box” level.

Compatibility

User experience

Dashboards immediately surface the highest-risk issues and simple filters let teams drill into assets or exploitability with only a few clicks, so most users ramp up quickly. Creating customized reports or complex queries still takes some trial and error, which keeps the experience just shy of the very top tier.

User experience

Customer support

Cisco offers 24×7 TAC phone help plus detailed web guides, so users usually get same-day answers. Risk data for new CVEs is refreshed daily, meaning coverage arrives well inside a week. Only larger contracts receive a dedicated success manager, so support falls just short of the top tier.
