Why do you need a nice weekly report? Is upper management going to want to see this report every single week, and if they do, why can't it be templated? Keep in mind, Qualys won't do anything for you besides run the scan and give you the report. Summaries are interpretive, and best done by someone who knows the network (in other words, you'll be doing them either way). And finally, even considering it taking an entire 24 hours to scan a class C range, is it really going to take four entire days to digest/collate/polish up the results, especially as the results will likely not have changed dramatically in the past week's time? I seriously question the notion that nessus scanning of a class C on a weekly basis is a full-time job.
