Find out what your peers are saying about Darktrace, Vectra AI, Auvik and others in Network Traffic Analysis (NTA)."The most valuable feature is the ease of use and the full reach of services."
"The solution is open source and has many small targetted penetration tests that have been written by many people that are useful. You can choose different subjects for the test, such as Oracle databases or Apache servers."
"I don't have any other tools like it, and I always use it when I'm doing a pen test. Metasploit is a great solution for penetration testing,"
"Rapid7 Metasploit is a useful product."
"I use Rapid7 Metasploit for payload generation and Post-Exploitation."
"All of the features are great."
"It is scalable. It's in line with our needs."
"It allows us to concentrate solely on identified vulnerabilities without the hassle of additional setup."
"The greatest advantage of Rapid7 Metasploit is that it is the only system that can directly exploit vulnerabilities on the Metasploit platform."
"I would like to see it integrate with third-party systems."
"The solution is not very scalable, it does not provide any automation to be able to scale it."
"It is necessary to add some training materials and a tutorial for beginners."
"Rapid7 Metasploit can add a GUI feature because it is only available online."
"I would like to see more capabilities, more functions, and more features. More types of attack vectors."
"The open-source version has reporting limitations. You need to develop these capabilities yourself. Built-in reporting is an excellent feature for penetration testing, but it isn't a must-have. The solution could also cover more vulnerabilities. Metasploit has around 10,000 exploits in its library, but more is always better."
"If your company's patch is not up to date, but you have other detection or defense solutions such as endpoint detection and response and antivirus software, the product exploit may not work effectively. This is because its exploit database update process is slow and not real-time. For zero-day vulnerabilities or new security threats, relying on Rapid7 Metasploit alone may not be effective."
"Metasploit cannot be installed on a machine with an antivirus."
"Rapid7 Metasploit could be made easier for new users to learn."
