NeXpose vs Nessus

I've used Nessus for years. I only recently heard of NeXpose after Rapid7 started funding Metasploit and promised to integrate their scanner with Metasploit. I decided to give NeXpose a whirl. The learning curve wasn't steep when using the scanner.
Scanned the same target machine with Nessus.
The 2 scanners produce the same result but I always believe in the need to use multiple tools to assess vulnerabilities in infrastructures, networks, systems and applications to uncover the full state of insecurity.
