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

"I used the tool to prepare for the interview as a Business Developer. It helped me improve my understanding on software security."
"Burp Suite gives you a very good automated scanning tool, which gives you around sixty to seventy percent security coverage without having to use a security resource."
"This is a standard tool in this industry and anybody who is doing application security testing should be aware of it."
"This solution has helped our company in many ways."
"The active scanner, which does an automated search of any web vulnerabilities."
"The initial setup is simple."
"I highly recommend it because everybody in Web Applications Security is using it."
"We use the solution for vulnerability assessment in respect of the application and the sites."
"This solution has helped a lot in finding bugs and vulnerabilities, and the scanner is good enough for simple web apps."
 

Cons

"I would like the tool to integrate AI and automation that is dedicated to detecting software vulnerabilities."
"The one feature that I would like to see in Burp is active scanning of REST based web services."
"The price could be better. The rest is fine."
"If we're running a huge number of scans regularly, it slows down the tool."
"For a country such as Sri Lanka, the pricing is not reasonable."
"PortSwigger Burp Suite Professional could improve the static code review."
"I would like to see a more optimized solution, as it currently uses a lot of CPU power and memory."
"A lot of our interns find it difficult to get used to PortSwigger Burp's environment."
"The Auto Scanning features should be updated more frequently and should include the latest attack vectors."
