|---|---|---|
| Senior Engineering Manager - Platform Team at eTender Inc | 4.0 | I've found Bugcrowd effective for uncovering vulnerabilities, especially with its triage process, though frequent account manager changes hurt communication. Despite a high cost, it adds value, and setup was straightforward, though integrating with Jira was challenging. |
| dApp Auditor at Hacken | 4.0 | I use Bugcrowd to report security vulnerabilities, benefiting from its extensive list of websites and guaranteed payments. While it has slowed in triaging, it enhances my skills. I've also tried HackerOne and Integrity, but Bugcrowd remains unmatched. |
| DevOps Team Lead at Tata Consultancy | 4.0 | I am a developer in cybersecurity who uses Bugcrowd to report platform vulnerabilities efficiently through their easy-to-use cloud platform. However, I find there is room for improvement in their response time when customer input is necessary. |
| Security Researcher at HackerOne | 4.0 | As a security researcher using Bugcrowd, I find vulnerabilities, report them, and receive bounties for valid findings. Bugcrowd offers valuable features like program collections, but needs improvement in report access and customer support response time. I also work with HackerOne. |
| Bug bounty hunter at HackerOne | 5.0 | I have been using Bugcrowd for two years to find bugs and vulnerabilities. I like the high bounties, hall of fame, and stickers. Although it's helpful and user-friendly, I feel there is room for improvement in the tool itself. |
