There were some incompatibility issues, but it's a fairly stable product.

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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It has enabled me to develop a more comprehensive SDLC."
"PortSwigger Burp Suite Professional is one of the best user-friendly solutions for getting the proxy set up."
"PortSwigger Burp Suite does not hamper the node of the server, and it does not shut down the server if it is running."
"PortSwigger Burp Suite Professional is superior in quite a few options."
"One useful function is the ability to send requests to the repeater without making actual requests through the browser, allowing me to modify requests easily."
"I have found this solution has more plugins than other competitors which is a benefit. You are able to attach different plugins to the security scan to add features. For example, you can check to see if there are any payment systems that exist on a server, or username and password brute force analysis."
"The suite testing models are very good. It's very secure."
"The feature that we have found most valuable is that it comes with pre-set configurations, with a set of predefined options where you can pick one and start scanning, and we also have the option of creating our own configurations, such as how often the applications need to be scanned, along with good reporting and dashboards that integrate well with other task management applications we are using."
"This solution provides a very good mechanism for fixing interval time; for example, we can create a schedule, and the schedule runs on time, PortSwigger Burp Suite does not hamper the node of the server and does not shut down the server if it is running, it is quite fast and easy to install as well, and it is also a budget-friendly tool."
 

Cons

"There were some incompatibility issues after a Windows update where the NTO consumed all the available RAM."
"For a country such as Sri Lanka, the pricing is not reasonable."
"A lot of our interns find it difficult to get used to PortSwigger Burp's environment."
"If we're running a huge number of scans regularly, it slows down the tool."
"The solution doesn't offer very good scalability."
"The vendor must provide documentation on how to use the new API feature."
"There should be a heads up display like the one available in OWASP Zap."
"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."
"Even though I started working with PortSwigger Burp Suite Professional, I think I may have run the Scanner once, but I prefer to run ZAP because I'm more used to it and I think it checks many more vulnerabilities."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"For a country such as Sri Lanka, the pricing is not reasonable."
"The platform's pricing is reasonable."
"There are different licenses available that include a free version."
"It has a yearly license. I am satisfied with its price."
"This is a value for money product."
"The pricing of the solution is reasonable. We only need to pay for the annual subscription. I rate the pricing five out of ten."
"They should reduce the license cost a little bit. It is $400 per user, and it would be better if they could reduce the licensing fee."
"It is expensive for us in Brazil because the currency exchange rate from a dollar to a Brazilian Real is quite steep."
