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."Their CI/CD engine is very mature. It's very comprehensive and flexible, and compared to other projects, I believe that GitLab is number one right now from that perspective."
"CI/CD and GitLab scanning are the most valuable features."
"The best thing is that as the developers work on separate tasks, all of the code goes there and the other team members don't have to wait on each other to finish."
"GitLab offers a good interface for doing code reviews between two colleagues."
"GitLab is a solution for source code management, container registry, pipelines, testing, and deployment."
"The most valuable feature of GitLab is the automatic merging of code."
"I like that you can use GitLab as a double-sided solution for both DevOps and version management. It's a good product for working in these two areas, and the user interface makes it easy to understand."
"The most valuable feature of GitLab is the ability to upload scripts and make changes when needed and then reupload them. Additionally, the solution is user-friendly."
"PortSwigger Burp Suite does not hamper the node of the server, and it does not shut down the server if it is running."
"The most valuable feature is the application security. It also has a reasonable price."
"The solution has a pretty simple setup."
"In my area of expertise, I feel like it has almost everything I could possibly require at this moment."
"PortSwigger Burp Suite Professional is one of the best user-friendly solutions for getting the proxy set up."

"The integration could be slightly better."
"I used Spring Cloud config and to connect that to GitLab was so hard."
"The only thing our company is really waiting on in terms of features is the development of metrics."
"We would like to have easier tutorials. Their tutorials are too technical for a user to understand. They should be more detailed but less technical."
"I would like configuration of a YML file to be done via UI rather than a code file."
"The documentation is confusing."
"GitLab doesn't have AWS integration. It would be better to have integration with other container management environments beyond Kubernetes. It has very good integration with Kubernetes, but it doesn't have good integration with, for example, AWS, ETS, etc."
"I'm new to GitLab, so I would appreciate more documentation about the code and commands."
"It would be good if the solution could give us more details about what exactly is defective."
"There is a lot to this product, and it would be good if when you purchase the tool, they can provide us with a more extensive user manual."
"In the Professional version, we cannot link it with the CI/CD process."
"The Iran market does not have after-sales support. PortSwigger Burp Suite Professional needs to provide after-sales support."
"We'd like to have more integration potential across all versions of the product."
"The solution lacks sufficient stability."
"There should be a heads up display like the one available in OWASP Zap."
"The tool is very expensive."
