Hello everyone, in your opinion, what's the best commercial vulnerability
scanner in the market?
What is the best open source one?
Is the NeXpose integration with MSF as efficient as Qualys' and Nessus' ?

In general, NeXpose integration works better than Qualys/Nessus, simply
because we test it more often. The level of integration is much tighter
as well - the latest version of the plugin lets you list remote sites
and import existing site data without requiring a rescan. The Nessus
bridge code is quite extensive as well. Support for Qualys is minimal
right now, with only "scan" XML supported.
