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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It has enabled me to develop a more comprehensive SDLC."
"I find all the features of PortSwigger Burp Suite Professional most useful, particularly the AI enhancement for results and follow-up for retests."
"Unearthing these issues really helps me build confidence and relationships with clients on two counts."
"The most valuable features of PortSwigger Burp Suite Professional are its ease of use and its cost efficiency."
"This is one of the best tools that I'm using; I found this one much better."
"The solution is stable."
"The solution has a pretty simple setup."
"I find the attack model quite amazing, where I can write my scripts and load my scripts as well, which helps quite a bit. All the active scanning that it can do is also quite a lot helpful. It speeds up our vulnerability assessment and penetration testing. Right now, I am enjoying its in-browser, which also helps quite a bit. I'm always confused about setting up some proxy, but it really is the big solution we all want."
"Enables automation of different tasks such as authorization testing."
 

Cons

"There were some incompatibility issues after a Windows update where the NTO consumed all the available RAM."
"Sometimes the solution can run a little slow."
"The reporting needs to be improved; it is very bad."
"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."
"Scanning APIs using PortSwigger Burp Suite Professional takes a lot of time."
"In general, there's not much to complain about but the stability of the tool is not good enough."
"The interface for the automatic scan can be improved because it is easy for technical users, but the business users have trouble with it."
"The solution lacks sufficient stability."
"There should be a heads up display like the one available in OWASP Zap."
