We performed a comparison between Fortify WebInspect and Invicti based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution is easy to use."
"The most valuable feature is the static analysis."
"There are lots of small settings and tools, like an HTTP editor, that are very useful."
"Technical support has been good."
"The accuracy of its scans is great."
"The user interface is ok and it is very simple to use."
"The solution is able to detect a wide range of vulnerabilities. It's better at it than other products."
"Good at scanning and finding vulnerabilities."
"It has a comprehensive resulting mechanism. It is a one-stop solution for all your security testing mechanisms."
"I am impressed by the whole technology that they are using in this solution. It is really fast. When using netscan, the confirmation that it gives on the vulnerabilities is pretty cool. It is really easy to configure a scan in Netsparker Web Application Security Scanner. It is also really easy to deploy."
"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."
"High level of accuracy and quick scanning."
"The scanner and the result generator are valuable features for us."
"I like that it's stable and technical support is great."
"Scan, proxify the application, and then detailed report along with evidence and remediations to problems."
"We have had a problem with authentification."
"Not sufficiently compatible with some of our systems."
"The solution needs better integration with Microsoft's Azure Cloud or an extension of Azure DevOps. In fact, it should better integrate with any cloud provider. Right now, it's quite difficult to integrate with that solution, from the cloud perspective."
"A localized version, for example, in Korean would be a big improvement to this solution."
"Fortify WebInspect could improve user-friendliness. Additionally, it is very bulky to use."
"We have often encountered scanning errors."
"Our biggest complaint about this product is that it freezes up, and literally doesn't work for us."
"It requires improvement in terms of scanning. The application scan heavily utilizes the resources of an on-premise server. 32 GB RAM is very high for an enterprise web application."
"The higher level vulnerabilities like Cross-Site Scripting, SQL Injection, and other higher level injection attacks are difficult to highlight using Netsparker."
"It would be better for listing and attacking Java-based web applications to exploit vulnerabilities."
"Right now, they are missing the static application security part, especially web application security."
"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."
"The solution needs to make a more specific report."
"Reporting should be improved. The reporting options should be made better for end-users. Currently, it is possible, but it's not the best. Being able to choose what I want to see in my reports rather than being given prefixed information would make my life easier. I had to depend on the API for getting the content that I wanted. If they could fix the reporting feature to make it more comprehensive and user-friendly, it would help a lot of end-users. Everything else was good about this product."
"The solution's false positive analysis and vulnerability analysis libraries could be improved."
"The support's response time could be faster since we are in different time zones."
