Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Invicti's best feature is the ability to identify vulnerabilities and manually verify them.""The best features of Invicti are its ability to confirm access vulnerabilities, SSL injection vulnerabilities, and its connectors to other security tools.""It has a comprehensive resulting mechanism. It is a one-stop solution for all your security testing mechanisms.""The solution generates reports automatically and quickly.""Its ability to crawl a web application is quite different than another similar scanner.""It correctly parses DOM and JS and has really good support for URL Rewrite rules, which is important for today's websites.""High level of accuracy and quick scanning.""Crawling feature: Netsparker has very detail crawling steps and mechanisms. This feature expands the attack surface."

More Invicti Pros →

"It was easy to learn.""The reporting part is the most valuable. It also has very good features. We use almost all of the features for different kinds of customers and needs.""We are mostly using it for scanning the entire website. So, we basically create a script with the entire website and then run it for different injections.""The extension that it provides with the community version for the skills mapping is excellent.""It offers very good accuracy. You can trust the results.""I personally love its capability to automatically and accurately detect vulnerabilities. So, I would say it is the Burp scanner that is THE most powerful, valuable, and an awesome feature.""PortSwigger Burp Suite does not hamper the node of the server, and it does not shut down the server if it is running.""Enables automation of different tasks such as authorization testing."

Cons
"It would be better for listing and attacking Java-based web applications to exploit vulnerabilities.""The solution needs to make a more specific report.""The higher level vulnerabilities like Cross-Site Scripting, SQL Injection, and other higher level injection attacks are difficult to highlight using Netsparker.""The custom attack preparation screen might be improved.""The scanner itself should be improved because it is a little bit slow.""The licensing model should be improved to be more cost-effective. There are URL restrictions that consume our license. Compared to other DAST solutions and task tools like WebInspect and Burp Enterprise, Invicti is very expensive. The solution’s scanning time is also very long compared to other DAST tools. It might be due to proof-based scanning.""Netsparker doesn't provide the source code of the static application security testing.""The solution's false positive analysis and vulnerability analysis libraries could be improved."

More Invicti Cons →

"Scanning needs to be improved in enterprise and professional versions.""Scanning APIs using PortSwigger Burp Suite Professional takes a lot of time.""The solution is not easy to set it up. You need a lot of knowledge.""We'd like to have more integration potential across all versions of the product.""BurpSuite has some issues regarding authentication with OAT tokens that need to be improved.""The solution’s pricing could be improved.""I would like to see the return of the spider mechanism instead of the crawling feature. Burp Suite's earlier version 1.7 had an excellent spider option, and it would be beneficial if Burp incorporated those features into the current version. The crawling techniques used in the current version are not as efficient as those used in earlier versions.""Mitigating the issues and low confluence issues needs some improvement. Implementing demand with the ChatGPT under the web solution is an additional feature I would like to see in the next release."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It is competitive in the security market."
  • "OWASP Zap is free and it has live updates, so that's a big plus."
  • "We never had any issues with the licensing; the price was within our assigned limits."
  • "I think that price it too high, like other Security applications such as Acunetix, WebInspect, and so on."
  • "The price should be 20% lower"
  • "Netsparker is one of the costliest products in the market. It would help if they could allow us to scan multiple URLs on the same license."
  • "We are using an NFR license and I do not know the exact price of the NFR license. I think 20 FQDN for three years would cost around 35,000 US Dollars."
  • "Invicti is best suited for large enterprises. I don't think small and medium-sized businesses can afford it. Maintenance costs aren't that great."
  • More Invicti Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "This is a value for money product."
  • "The cost is approximately $500 for a single license, and there are no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fees."
  • "Our licensing cost is approximately $400 USD per year."
  • "The yearly cost is about $300."
  • "There is no setup cost and the cost of licensing is affordable."
  • "Licensing costs are about $450/year for one use. For larger organizations, they're able to test against multiple applications while simultaneously others might have multiple versions of applications which needs to be tested which is why we have the enterprise edition."
  • "There are different licenses available that include a free version."
  • "At $400 or $500 per license paid annually, it is a very cheap tool."
