2025 Gartner Customers’ Choice: Vulnerability Assessment

Tenable customers have spoken: Here’s what they’re saying about our products.

We’re proud to share that Tenable has been named a 2025 Gartner® Peer Insights™ Customers’ Choice¹ for Vulnerability Assessment. The best part? It’s based entirely on feedback from the people who use our products every day.

In the 18 months leading up to April 2025, we received 181 verified customer reviews and earned an average rating of 4.7 out of 5 stars. We’re grateful to our customers. That kind of feedback means a lot — and it tells us we’re delivering on what matters most.

We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: vulnerability management is the foundation of exposure management. Full stop. It’s the core of what security teams need to understand and reduce risk. When you know which systems are exposed, how critical they are and how likely they are to be exploited you can take smart, focused action — not just react to alerts.

We believe this recognition is a strong signal that our approach is working. Customers count on Tenable’s platform for wide-ranging visibility, risk-based prioritization, clear reporting and remediation, scalability, flexibility and continuous monitoring. Those trusted, proven capabilities are what make our exposure management platform a real difference-maker.

According to Gartner, vulnerability assessment solutions identify, categorize and prioritize vulnerabilities as well as orchestrate their remediation or mitigation. Their primary focus is vulnerability and security configuration assessments for enterprise risk identification and reduction, and reporting against various compliance standards.. The “Voice of the Customer” is a document that applies a methodology to aggregated Gartner Peer Insights’ reviews in a market to provide an overall perspective for IT decision makers.

So yes — this is a big deal. We feel it validates our strategy and reflects the trust our customers place in us every day. And we’re just getting started.

“Ability to perform vulnerability management on almost anything we have in our complex environment helps reduce risk on public-facing assets like firewalls, VPN concentrators, load-balancers, etc. The vendor is responsive to our needs and always tries to find a solution to the challenges we face.
