Featured Reviews

Valavan Sivgalingam - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Manager, Security Engineering at ESS
Dynamic testing regularly identifies web vulnerabilities and has strong false positive confirmations
It has good false positive confirmations, confirmed issues identification, and proof of exploit-related features as part of it. We use Invicti for these things in our portfolios. The solution includes Proof-Based Scanning technology. Invicti is part of our SSDLC portfolio, and DAST dynamic testing is very important for our web applications and portfolios. For both the API endpoints and web applications, we do regular testing on a monthly basis for all our releases. Invicti does a good job. The only concern is on the performance side, but other than that, we find it really helpful in identifying web vulnerabilities. A full scan takes more time based on your website and other factors, but for us, it takes more than two to three days. The scan performance can be improved upon. When we check with them, they discuss proof-based scanning and related aspects. However, there could be intermittent results that could help us.

Enables time-saving automated scanning and brute force attacks
The most appreciated functionality of PortSwigger Burp Suite is its ability to perform brute force attacks automatically. Its automated scanning feature saves time. Additionally, using this tool provides significant security insights, making our testing process more efficient and comprehensive, leading to considerable time savings, which in turn translates to financial benefits.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Invicti is getting baseline scanning and incremental scan."
"Its ability to crawl a web application is quite different than another similar scanner."
"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."
"Invicti's proactive scanning measures vulnerabilities each time we deploy or push code to a new environment."
"The scanner is light on the network and does not impact the network when scans are running."
"I would rate the stability as ten out of ten."
"The best features of Invicti are its ability to confirm access vulnerabilities, SSL injection vulnerabilities, and its connectors to other security tools."
"The most valuable part of it was probably the ability to intercept and modify calls."
"The solution's extensions really expand the capabilities and features offered by the installation."
"This tool helps identify vulnerabilities. We then provide the report to the developers, who address the issues identified automatically. Its most valuable feature is CI/CD integration."
"We are in the early stage of using the solution making it difficult to fully determine the best features. However, we have noticed the CMDB and device discovery features look valuable at this time."
"The product's initial setup phase was super easy."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"Parallel scans can be done with PortSwigger Burp Suite Enterprise Edition."
"The most appreciated functionality of PortSwigger Burp Suite is its ability to perform brute force attacks automatically."
 

Cons

"The scanning time, complexity, and authentication features of Invicti could be improved."
"I think that it freezes without any specific reason at times. This needs to be looked into."
"Currently, there is nothing I would like to improve."
"Right now, they are missing the static application security part, especially web application security."
"It would be better for listing and attacking Java-based web applications to exploit vulnerabilities."
"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."
"Maybe the ability to make a good reporting format is needed."
"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 product needs to have the ability to evaluate more."
"It would be better if the solution is cloud-based."
"The cost per license per user could be cheaper, specifically for individual licensing."
"It would be beneficial if Burp Suite provided predefined payloads for each attack category, such as SQL injection and cross-site scripting, to automate some tasks more effectively."
"From my personal experience, the solution's performance could be improved."
"The implementation of the solution is quite complicated and could be easier."
"Scalability could be better."
"The solution is a bit expensive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"The solution is very expensive. It comes with a yearly subscription. We were paying 6000 dollars yearly for unlimited scans. We have three licenses; basic, business, and ultimate. We need ultimate because it has unlimited scan numbers."
"It is competitive in the security market."
"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 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."
"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."
"Although the solution can be a bit expensive for small companies, its pricing is fairly reasonable for its capabilities."
"PortSwigger Burp Suite Enterprise Edition is expensive compared to other solutions."
"The tool's pricing is reasonable and costs around 400 dollars per year."
"PortSwigger Burp Suite Enterprise Edition is neither a cheap nor an expensive product. PortSwigger Burp Suite Enterprise Edition is a good tool for companies."
"For Professional, it's about $400 per year."
