"Why did you choose to change the license of Nessus?

Ron Gula: Customer demand. Organizations want a free product that they can use, and a place they can get commercial support and training from if needed."

Customer demand?! Nessus has always been free, what prevented Tenable to offer support and training for Nessus 2?
