• 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.

• Live verification cuts false positives to near zero for supported providers.
• Free and easy to add as a pre-commit hook or CI step.
• Scans far beyond git — buckets, images, logs.

• 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.

• No dashboard or workflow in the free CLI.
• Verification requires outbound network calls, which some environments block.
• Full-history scans on large repositories are slow.
