Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most attractive feature was the reporting review tool. The reporting review was very impressive and produced very fruitful reports.""This tool is really fast and the information that they provide on vulnerabilities is pretty good.""The most valuable feature of Invicti is getting baseline scanning and incremental scan.""The scanner is light on the network and does not impact the network when scans are running.""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.""Its ability to crawl a web application is quite different than another similar scanner.""The best features of Invicti are its ability to confirm access vulnerabilities, SSL injection vulnerabilities, and its connectors to other security tools.""Invicti is a good product, and its API testing is also good."

"I like that it provides a detailed report that lets you know the risk index and the vulnerability.""The feature that I have found the most valuable in Kiuwan is the speed of scanning. Compared to other SaaS tools I have used, Kiuwan is much quicker in performing scans. I have not yet used it on a large code base, but from what I have experienced, it is efficient and accurate. Additionally, I have used it both manually and in an automated pipeline, and both methods have been effective. The speed of scanning is what makes it valuable to me.""​We use Kiuwan to locate the source of application vulnerabilities.""The most valuable feature is the time to resolution, where it tells you how long it is going to take to get to a zero-base or a five-star security rating.""Lifecycle features, because they permit us to show non-technical people the risk and costs hidden into the code due to bad programming practices.""I like that I can scan the code without sending it to the Kiuwan cloud. I can do it locally on my device. When the local analyzer finishes, the results display on the dashboard in the cloud. It's essential for security purposes to be able to scan my code locally.""I've tried many open source applications and the remediation or correction actions that were provided by Kiuwan were very good in comparison.""I personally like the way it breaks down security vulnerabilities with LoC at first glance."

Cons
"The scanning time, complexity, and authentication features of Invicti could be improved.""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 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.""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.""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.""Right now, they are missing the static application security part, especially web application security.""The custom attack preparation screen might be improved."

More Invicti Cons →

"It could improve its scalability abilities.""Integration of the programming tools could be improved.""I would like to see additional languages supported.""The product's UI has certain shortcomings, where improvements are required.""Perhaps more languages supported.""DIfferent languages, such Spanish, Portuguese, and so on.""The QA developer and security could be improved.""The next release should include more flexibility in the reporting."

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."
