Find out what your peers are saying about HCLTech, OpenText, Rapid7 and others in Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST)."In Rapid7 InsightAppSec, a distinctive feature is the provision of a CDM for integrating web servers and web applications. To establish the connection between these applications, you only need to paste the provided CDN into your metadata. Once connected, every piece of information, including vulnerabilities, can be accessed. It also offers demo sessions."
"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."
"It is a very robust solution."
"It is very convenient to get reports from the tool, which offers high-level environmental statistics."
"We have seen measurable decrease in the mean time to respond to threats by 20 percent."
"The solution is stable."
"The product’s most valuable feature is UI. It is easy to manage and find vulnerabilities in the application."
"The stability is great. We haven't had any issues at all with it."
"We get a lot of false positives during the tests."
"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."
"In the future, if they can have integration with a lot of ticketing systems then it would be amazing."
"We'd like to see integrations with WAF solutions."
"When you add new projects for the same product, it either duplicates or replaces the scan configuration. If I run a scan for the same product with a different scan configuration, it should keep the previous scan configuration and not replace it with the new scan configuration. It should just add the new scan configuration. That would be helpful. They do keep the results as it is, but the scan configuration keeps changing. For example, I have set a scan configuration to a full scan, and next week, I want to run a new scan for the same product with some changes or new functionalities. I want to run a partial scan. Currently, if I change the scan configuration to partial, it changes the old one also to partial. That should be improved."
"Rapid7 InsightAppSec needs improvement in detecting phishing pages."
"The number of web applications we can scan is limited."
"The only concern I have with Rapid7 is that it does not provide enough information about vulnerabilities within AppSec."
"I would like to see a little more flexibility with regards to setting up profiles for vulnerabilities."
