Find out in this report how the two Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."AppScan is stable."
"The solution offers services in a few specific development languages."
"Technical support is helpful."
"It provides a better integration for our ecosystem."
"Compared to other tools only AppScan supports special language."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the scanning or security part."
"For me, as a manager, it was the ease of use. Inserting security into the development process is not normally an easy project to do. The ability for the developer to actually use it and get results and focuses, that's what counted."
"This is a stable solution."
"The tool is loaded with many features that give us ROI."
"The product is easy to use."
"We are in the early stage of using the solution making it difficult to fully determine the best features. However, we have noticed the CMDB and device discovery features look valuable at this time."
"The product's initial setup phase was super easy."
"Parallel scans can be done with PortSwigger Burp Suite Enterprise Edition."
"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."
"I like normal dynamic scanning, general web applications scanning, and vulnerability assessments."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"Visibility is an issue for us. Our partners do not know we have integrations with some of IBM products."
"If HCL AppScan is able to alert the clients over email once the scan is complete, it would be great. Right now, HCL AppScan doesn't let me know if the scanning part is finished or not, because of which I have to come back and check mostly."
"They should have a better UI for dashboards."
"The solution needs to improve in some areas. The tool needs to add more languages. It also needs to improve its speed."
"The pricing has room for improvement."
"I would love to see more containers. Many of the tools are great, they require an amount of configuration, setup and infrastructure. If most the applications were in a container, I think everything would be a little bit faster, because all our clients are now using containers."
"Sometimes it doesn't work so well."
"We would like to integrate with some of the other reporting tools that we're planning to use in the future."
"There are features or functionality missing, but PortSwigger Burp Suite Enterprise Edition does try to update frequently to alleviate the shortcomings."
"The stability of the scans could be improved."
"The implementation of the solution is quite complicated and could be easier."
"The cost per license per user could be cheaper, specifically for individual licensing."
"The solution is a bit expensive."
"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 product needs to have the ability to evaluate more."
"It would be better if the solution is cloud-based."
