More CyberGRX Pros →

"The Search Engineering feature is good.""The solution is open source and has many small targetted penetration tests that have been written by many people that are useful. You can choose different subjects for the test, such as Oracle databases or Apache servers.""The option to generate phishing emails has proven to be very valuable in understanding the behavior of users.""I don't have any other tools like it, and I always use it when I'm doing a pen test. Metasploit is a great solution for penetration testing,""The reporting on the solution is good.""Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.""Rapid7 Metasploit is a useful product.""I use Rapid7 Metasploit for payload generation and Post-Exploitation."

Cons
"There are not many partners for this product in India, which makes the OEM very difficult to reach."

More CyberGRX Cons →

"It is necessary to add some training materials and a tutorial for beginners.""There are numerous outdated exploits in their database that should be updated.""The solution is not user-friendly and has room for improvement.""Better automation capabilities would be an improvement.""The initial setup was a bit "tweaky" for the open-source version.""Rapid7 Metasploit can add a GUI feature because it is only available online.""The solution should improve the responsiveness of its live technical support.""The open-source version has reporting limitations. You need to develop these capabilities yourself. Built-in reporting is an excellent feature for penetration testing, but it isn't a must-have. The solution could also cover more vulnerabilities. Metasploit has around 10,000 exploits in its library, but more is always better."
