Find out in this report how the two Vulnerability Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It can operate both as a standalone and it can be integrated with other applications, which makes it a very versatile solution to have."
"The vulnerability scanning option for analyzing the security loopholes on the websites is the most valuable feature of this solution."
"One of the features that I feel is groundbreaking, that I would like to see expanded on, is the IAS feature: The Interactive Application Security Testing module that gets loaded onto an application on a server, for more in-depth, granular findings. I think that is really neat. I haven't seen a lot of competitors doing that."
"We use the solution for the scanning of vulnerabilities like SQL injections."
"The most important feature is that it's a web-based graphical user interface. That is a great addition. Also, the ability to schedule scans is great."
"Acunetix has an awesome crawler. It gives a referral site map of near targets and also goes really deep to find all the inputs without issues. This was valuable because it helped me find some files or directories, like web admin panels without authentication, which were hidden."
"Our developers can run the attacks directly from their environments, desktops."
"For us, the most valuable aspect of the solution is the log-sequence feature."
"The most valuable features of PortSwigger Burp Suite Enterprise Edition are the vast amount of options and ease of use. They frequently improve the solution every six months to a year. Additionally, if we want any more features we can upload a custom script to meet our needs."
"The tool is loaded with many features that give us ROI."
"I like normal dynamic scanning, general web applications scanning, and vulnerability assessments."
"The product's initial setup phase was super easy."

"The product is easy to use."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The vulnerability identification speed should be improved."
"Currently only supports web scanning."
"The solution's pricing could be better."
"There's a clear need for a reduction in pricing to make the service more accessible."
"Integration into other tools is very limited for Acunetix. While we're trying to incorporate a CI/CD process where we're integrating with JIRA and we're integrating with Jenkins and Chef, it becomes problematic. Other tools give you a high integration capability to connect into different solutions that you may already have, like JIRA."
"Tools that would allow us to work more efficiently with the mobile environment, with Android and iOS."
"We have had issues during upgrades where their scans worked on some apps better with previous versions. Then, we had to work with their tech support, who were great, to get it fixed for the next version."
"There are some versions of the solution that are not as stable as others."
"There are features or functionality missing, but PortSwigger Burp Suite Enterprise Edition does try to update frequently to alleviate the shortcomings."
"The solution is a bit expensive."
"The product needs to have the ability to evaluate more."
"The cost per license per user could be cheaper, specifically for individual licensing."
"There's definitely room for improvement. There are lots of false positives. Once I do the manual assessment, it comes as a false positive. They need to improve the Enterprise Edition, especially the part that gives false positives."
"The implementation of the solution is quite complicated and could be easier."
"It would be better if the solution is cloud-based."
"The stability of the scans could be improved."
