We performed a comparison between Fortify on Demand and Invicti based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Application Security Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The vulnerability detection and scanning are awesome features."
"While using Micro Focus Fortify on Demand we have been very happy with the results and findings."
"Fortify on Demand's best feature is that there's no need to install and configure it locally since it's on the cloud."
"The most important feature of the product is to follow today's technology fast, updated rules and algorithms (of the product)."
"The most valuable features are the detailed reporting and the ability to set up deep scanning of the software, both of which are in the same place."
"We have the option to test applications with or without credentials."
"The features that I have found most valuable include its security scan, the vulnerability finds, and the web interface to search and review the issues."
"Being able to reduce risk overall is a very valuable feature for us."
"I am impressed with Invictus’ proof-based scanning. The solution has reduced the incidence of false positive vulnerabilities. It has helped us reduce our time and focus on vulnerabilities."
"Attacking feature: Actually, attacking is not a solo feature. It contains many attack engines, Hawk, and many properties. But Netsparker's attacking mechanism is very flexible. This increases the vulnerability detection rate. Also, Netsparker made the Hawk for real-time interactive command-line-based exploit testing. It's very valuable for a vulnerability scanner."
"Scan, proxify the application, and then detailed report along with evidence and remediations to problems."
"When we try to manually exploit the vulnerabilities, it often takes time to realize what's going on and what needs to be done."
"One of the features I like about this program is the low number of false positives and the support it offers."
"The most attractive feature was the reporting review tool. The reporting review was very impressive and produced very fruitful reports."
"The scanner is light on the network and does not impact the network when scans are running."
"I am impressed by the whole technology that they are using in this solution. It is really fast. When using netscan, the confirmation that it gives on the vulnerabilities is pretty cool. It is really easy to configure a scan in Netsparker Web Application Security Scanner. It is also really easy to deploy."
"With Rapid7 I utilized its reporting capabilities to deliver Client Reports within just a few minutes of checking the data. I believe that HP’s FoD Clients could sell more services to clients if HP put more effort into delivering visually pleasing reporting capabilities."
"We have some stability issues, but they are minimal."
"The reporting capabilities need improvement, as there are some features that we would like to have but are not available at the moment."
"There are lots of limitations with code technology. It cannot scan .net properly either."
"There is room for improvement in the integration process."
"In terms of communication, they can integrate a few more third-party tools. It would be great if we can have more options for microservice communication. They can also improve the securability a bit more because security is one of the biggest aspects these days when you are using the cloud. Some more security features would be really helpful."
"Integration to CI/CD pipelines could be improved. The reporting format could be more user friendly so that it is easy to read."
"In terms of what could be improved, we need more strategic analysis reports, not just for one specific application, but for the whole enterprise. In the next release, we need more reports and more analytic views for all the applications. There is no enterprise view in Fortify. I would like enterprise views and reports."
"Reporting should be improved. The reporting options should be made better for end-users. Currently, it is possible, but it's not the best. Being able to choose what I want to see in my reports rather than being given prefixed information would make my life easier. I had to depend on the API for getting the content that I wanted. If they could fix the reporting feature to make it more comprehensive and user-friendly, it would help a lot of end-users. Everything else was good about this product."
"The scannings are not sufficiently updated."
"The solution needs to make a more specific report."
"The support's response time could be faster since we are in different time zones."
"It would be better for listing and attacking Java-based web applications to exploit vulnerabilities."
"The proxy review, the use report views, the current use tool and the subset requests need some improvement. It was hard to understand how to use them."
"The license could be better. It would help if they could allow us to scan multiple URLs on the same license. It's a major hindrance that we are facing while scanning applications, and we have to be sure that the URLs are the same and not different so that we do not end up consuming another license for it. Netsparker is one of the costliest products in the market. The licensing is tied to the URL, and it's restricted. If you have a URL that you scanned once, like a website, you cannot retry that same license. If you are scanning the same website but in a different domain or different URL, you might end up paying for a second license. It would also be better if they provided proper support for multi-factor authentications. In the next release, I would like them to include good multi-factor authentication support."
"The higher level vulnerabilities like Cross-Site Scripting, SQL Injection, and other higher level injection attacks are difficult to highlight using Netsparker."
