Dedicated browser and repeater have improved my proxy testing and manual vulnerability checks
I'm hoping perhaps for something to make it easier, such as to define things where if a message or a response is such and such, automatically make a request that is such and such. Perhaps something like this because otherwise, nowadays we have to do it manually. Perhaps they can automate it a bit more. Perhaps they could add some automation to things, to see what we do manually, which it has the tools to do manually, and perhaps enable with a click of a button to do things automatically. I'm not too sure which, but I'm sure they can from a product management point of view, do things that we need to do two, three, or four steps manually regarding specific testing. For instance, we want to check something specific if it's this or if it's that. Perhaps to define it once and have it more automatic, perhaps.

Pros

"It has enabled me to develop a more comprehensive SDLC."
"The solution is reliable, it is very stable."
"This is a very nice tool and anybody can use it, from beginner to expert level."
"I highly recommend it because everybody in Web Applications Security is using it."
"The most valuable features are Burp Intruder and Burp Scanner."
"The crawling capability is excellent."
"We use the solution for vulnerability assessment in respect of the application and the sites."
"The solution helps to find different security issues, and it helps identify many, many security issues quickly, and that's what makes it such a useful tool."
"The most valuable feature of PortSwigger Burp Suite Professional is the advanced features, user-friendly interface, and integration with other tools."
 

Cons

"There were some incompatibility issues after a Windows update where the NTO consumed all the available RAM."
"The price could be better. The rest is fine."
"Scanning needs to be improved in enterprise and professional versions."
"The initial setup was somewhat complex, to be honest."
"The scanner and crawler need to be improved."
"The pricing of the solution is quite high."
"I would like to see a more optimized solution, as it currently uses a lot of CPU power and memory."
"There could be an improvement in the API security testing. There is another tool called Postman and if we had a built-in portal similar to Postman which captures the API, we would be able to generate the API traffic. Right now we need a Postman tool and the Burp Suite for performing API tests. It would be a huge benefit to be able to do it in a single UI."
"The solution’s pricing could be improved."
