• The reference tool for manual application penetration testing — every security professional knows it.
• Exceptional scanner accuracy, particularly for injection classes.
• Professional Edition is remarkably good value at under $500 per year.

• Proof-based scanning eliminates most false-positive triage, which is the main cost of DAST.
• Handles authenticated scanning of modern JavaScript applications well.
• Good asset discovery for organisations that do not know all their own sites.

• Community Edition is too limited for serious automated work.
• Requires security expertise; it is not a push-button product for developers.
• Enterprise licensing is a significant step up in cost.

• Expensive relative to free DAST alternatives.
• Scans take time and are not suited to per-commit feedback.
• Dynamic testing alone cannot find everything a code review would.

Security teams and penetration testers, plus enterprises needing scheduled authenticated scanning.

Organisations with many web applications and no capacity to triage scanner noise.
