We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros

More Contrast Security Protect Pros →

"Crawling feature: Netsparker has very detail crawling steps and mechanisms. This feature expands the attack surface.""It correctly parses DOM and JS and has really good support for URL Rewrite rules, which is important for today's websites.""Invicti's best feature is the ability to identify vulnerabilities and manually verify them.""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.""The most attractive feature was the reporting review tool. The reporting review was very impressive and produced very fruitful reports.""Invicti is a good product, and its API testing is also good.""The best features of Invicti are its ability to confirm access vulnerabilities, SSL injection vulnerabilities, and its connectors to other security tools.""One of the features I like about this program is the low number of false positives and the support it offers."

Cons
"There's room for improvement in the initial setup.""Contrast Security Protect needs to improve integration.""Protect's reporting GUI is very basic. To get all statuses from the APIs, we needed to write our own KPI dashboard to provide reports."

More Contrast Security Protect Cons →

"Asset scanning could be better. Once, it couldn't scan assets, and the issue was strange. The price doesn't fit the budget of small and medium-sized businesses.""I think that it freezes without any specific reason at times. This needs to be looked into.""Right now, they are missing the static application security part, especially web application security.""It would be better for listing and attacking Java-based web applications to exploit vulnerabilities.""The solution's false positive analysis and vulnerability analysis libraries could be improved.""They don't really provide the proof of concept up to the level that we need in our organization. We are a consultancy firm, and we provide consultancy for the implementation and deployment solutions to our customers. When you run the scans and the scan is completed, it only shows the proof of exploit, which really doesn't work because the tool is running the scan and exploiting on the read-only form. You don't really know whether it is actually giving the proof of exploit. We cannot prove it manually to a customer that the exploit is genuine. It is really hard to perform it manually and prove it to the concerned development, remediation, and security teams. It is currently missing the static application security part of the application security, especially web application security. It would be really cool if they can integrate a SAS tool with their dynamic one.""The scannings are not sufficiently updated.""Netsparker doesn't provide the source code of the static application security testing."

Pricing and Cost Advice
Information Not Available
  • "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."
