this is useful, especially for small scans as you will always need more or less raw tool output. Raw tool output for large scans is however in my experience on large networks with similar tools unreadable and unmanageable.
my ,02: you therefore need database output primarily. you then need to confirm the (OS) type of the devices as the automatic recognition may imperfect, you need to find out their location, then you need to identify the owner of the devices and the team(s) responsible for getting each of them fixed you can now generate a table with this information and link it to the database (via IP address) This way you can decide what to fix (how), whom you need to inform about it, who does what and when you need to get it done The raw output is then useful to these expert teams who need to find out what the tool actually reported/believed was the problem.
