Well, Kennen has a few major disadvantages compared ot other supports.

First, his stun isn't instant, not even if you drop everything on the enemy. You need to apply it three times, giving your opponents the opportunity to react. For example when ulting into the enemy team, most can use their mobility to create distance, which makes it way harder to follow the engage. The other way around, if an assassin attacks your carry on the other hand, he'll die before you get him stunned.

Second, his defensive capability is really weak. He has no slow at all, the only CC he got is his passive. And that's only reliable if you have your w passive ready at all time. Otherwise you need to hit the Q, or even worse, get in E-range (which is 0 range). So whenever you harass, you're wide open to get countered

Third, your impact in teamfights vanishes after you've done the all in. Try getting somebody stunned with all your cooldowns working against you. And your damage hardly makes up for that.
