Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It uses a signature-based method to check for problems with your code and will provide an alert if anything is found.""It's very easy to use and user-friendly. It does the job.""We have seen measurable decrease in the mean time to respond to threats by 20 percent.""The product’s most valuable feature is UI. It is easy to manage and find vulnerabilities in the application.""The templates feature is very easy. You just choose the kind of attack you want on your web application, and you run it against that template and receive a report. It's great.""It is very convenient to get reports from the tool, which offers high-level environmental statistics.""The most valuable feature of this solution is the graphical interface.""You have various attack modules, and you also have the Attack Replay feature for the attack sequence. You can reproduce an attack and see it. That is a very good feature I noticed in this solution. It helps developers as well."

Cons
"The product’s pricing could be flexible.""We get a lot of false positives during the tests.""The number of web applications we can scan is limited.""In the future, if they can have integration with a lot of ticketing systems then it would be amazing.""The reporting is definitely an aspect of the solution that's in need of some work. We found that we'd try to use widgets, but often getting them to work for us wasn't very clear. They need to be more user friendly or offer better instructions.""Rapid7 InsightAppSec needs improvement in detecting phishing pages.""I would like more details of what the product can do.""They should add more features. I would like to see them do a little more on static analysis and also interactivity analysis. Currently, it does very basic static analysis. It could do a little more static analysis, which is something that would help. A lot more interactivity analysis should also be there. It should basically look at security during interactivity."

More Rapid7 InsightAppSec Cons →

"The solution needs more ports, more speed, and more gigabytes.""Sometimes, when you configure parameters the hardware can't run, it will get stuck at those points without telling you what happened. It would be helpful if the error reporting provided more details about why the test setting is not running. It would be nice if there were a space in the hardware module for you to add some external hardware for more rigorous testing.""CyberFlood's accessibility and support for multiple browsers could be better.""I would also like to see updates on a more frequent schedule."
