Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I used the tool to prepare for the interview as a Business Developer. It helped me improve my understanding on software security."
"The most valuable feature of PortSwigger Burp Suite Professional is the dashboard. It is very informative and you can receive all the information you need in one place. It's clear, well-defined, and organized. Anybody without any cybersecurity can use it."
"BurpSuite helps us to identify and fix silly mistakes that are sometimes introduced by our developers in their coding."
"The feature that we have found most valuable is that it comes with pre-set configurations. They have a set of predefined options where you can pick one and start scanning. We also have the option of creating our own configurations, like how often do the applications need to be scanned."
"We use the solution for vulnerability assessment in respect of the application and the sites."
"I have found the best features to be the performance and there are a lot of additional plugins available."
"The technical support from PortSwigger is excellent, managing response time and quality efficiently without any issues."
"The solution helped us discover vulnerabilities in our applications."
"The most valuable features are Burp Intruder and Burp Scanner."
 

Cons

"I would like the tool to integrate AI and automation that is dedicated to detecting software vulnerabilities."
"There should be a heads up display like the one available in OWASP Zap."
"Sometimes the solution can run a little slow."
"If your application uses multi-factor authentication, registration management cannot be automated."
"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."
"There needs to be better documentation provided. Currently, we need to buy books, or we need to review online some use cases from other professionals who have been using the solution to find out their experience. It is not easy to find out how to properly do a security assessment."
"I would like to see a more optimized solution, as it currently uses a lot of CPU power and memory."
"The solution lacks sufficient stability."
"The use of system memory is an area that can be improved because it uses a lot."
