Mh... I believe there are many other costs involved. Does
Qualys provide source code to signatures? What is the cost
(time/resources) of investigating false positives without
this information?
On the other hand, with commercial products you have someone
to blame if the performance or results of a product are not
satisfactory (based on a contract), however, no matter how
excelent nessus is, there is no one forced to give you
support with nessus (unless you buy support from another
company; I also believe Renaud Deraison was working on a
distributed nessus architecture that might be based on
appliances and provide you with commercial support but I'm
not sure).
