Associate Consultant Computer & Network Security Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Cybersecurity made easier" May 15, 2019 4.0 I started using Netsparker when I was a trainee at a cybersecurity firm, and still used it till when I was an associate consultant (I could attend to clients without supervision). This highlights its versatility and ease of use. Pros While being easy to operate, it is flexible; offering diverse functions in vulnerability assessment from detecting basic vulnerabilities like out-of-date app versions to generating executive style reports of scan results. Cons It gets quite slow when testing for some vulnerabilities in larger URLs. Review Source Response from Invicti May 17, 2019 Thank you for your feedback. We are thrilled that Netsparker has proven so useful for so many years. rG ryan G. Sr. Information Security Analyst Legal Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Invicti - First year review" September 22, 2025 5.0 Great so far, we'll be renewing without a second thought this year. Our organization is looking forward to the recently announced AI scanning capabilities. Pros Invicti Enterprise is a great solution for larger enterprises. The product is easy to set up, with great onboarding documentation. Scans do a great job of filtering out false positives, letting our team focus on actionable items. Lastly, it cannot be understated how well the reports are out of the box compared to a lot of the other products out there. Cons The cost of the product is prohibitive for smaller organizations. Scan times can get up there as well, which is a drawback of the scan coverage. Alternatives considered [PortSwigger](https://www.capterra.com/p/178476/PortSwigger/)[Snyk](https://www.capterra.com/p/172252/Snyk/) Reason for choosing Invicti Invicti was the only product that felt like an enterprise grade product out of the box. Switched from [Qualys Cloud Platform](https://www.capterra.com/p/82971/QualysGuard-Enterprise/) Cost, the product was lacking many features, and reporting was awful. Review Source sL sai L. Application Security Manager Financial Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Application Security Manager " September 17, 2025 3.0 Overall, my experience with Invicti has been good. However, it could be better if we were able to use the tool’s full capabilities. Some product limitations in certain scenarios make it harder to fully meet our needs. Pros Invicti is easy to use, and the platform is very user-friendly. Customer support is very responsive on the tickets. Cons There are still areas for improvement, and client feedback should be prioritized based on requirements. For example, although we have subscribed to the Auto Discovery of API feature, we have not yet received any feedback or updates on when it will be implemented. Switched from [Qualys Cloud Platform](https://www.capterra.com/p/82971/QualysGuard-Enterprise/) Due to its limitations and the level of support offered, Qualys does not fully satisfy our needs.

Security Analyst III Hospitality Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great web app scanning tool with great personalized support" September 18, 2025 4.0 Mostly a positive experience, especially working our our account manager, who has a solid foundation knowledge of using the platform that does a good job of passing his valuable insights to our weekly meetings. Pros I like the ability to easily customize our scan policies along with the ability to scan a wide range of API specifications. Cons Reporting is the area that I would like to see invicti really improve upon. After that, the UI could use a modernization refresh. Alternatives considered [Qualys Cloud Platform](https://www.capterra.com/p/82971/QualysGuard-Enterprise/)[InsightVM](https://www.capterra.com/p/169723/InsightVM/) Reason for choosing Invicti The price point and the flexibility that Invicti provides.

Devops Manager Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Clear framework with a powerful Web Security Scanner" September 23, 2025 5.0 Overall, Accunetix is best suited for web security teams focused on vulnerability detection and compliance. Pros The interface is intuitive, with well-organized dashboards that make it easy to set up scans and interpret results. Accunetix provides clear, actionable reports and integrates with tools like Jira and Slack for real-time alerts. Notifications are customizable, which helps teams prioritize critical vulnerabilities quickly. Cons Broad or complex scans can be slow. Involve more scan times for large applications. Sometimes configuring the scan limits, crawling policies etc. are complicated Alternatives considered [Qualys Cloud Platform](https://www.capterra.com/p/82971/QualysGuard-Enterprise/) Reason for choosing Invicti The licensing is seen as restrictive about being tied to a fixed number of FQDNs or URLs and pricing Review Source TS Taylor S. Security Engineer Financial Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Invicti is worth it" September 12, 2025 5.0 Our experience with Invicti has been overall a positive thing. I have been very satisfied with the capabilities of the tool and how well it integrates with our current setup, including our setup with Mend. The fact that Invicti integrates with Mend is another huge win for us because we use Mend for our SAST and SCA scans. Pros The tool is very easy to use, and the customer support team is great. I have had quick solutions to my problems each time I have had to reach out to them. The value you get for the product is pretty incredible. We were paying more for another product, and Invicti is a better product, and we are spending less on it. Cons The onboarding process was a little less hand-holding than I was told it would be, but it wasn't terrible. Review Source AM Ahmed M. Head of cybersecurity Banking Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Acunetix DAST Scanning review" September 10, 2025 4.0 The user interface is User friendly and the generated reports is so good and provides good details…. Pros Fast in scanning, UI is user friendly, also on-primes not on cloud, reports are so good and provide good executive summary Cons Not scanning all web APP due to security restrictions on the web APP, limitations in API scanning, also some issues in the recording sessions Switched from [Fortifi](https://www.capterra.com/p/173526/Fortifi/) Not supporting our requirements and slow in scanning, however it is low in price and cover API scanning Review Source GP Gianluca P. Cybersecurity Specialist Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Best software for Web Application Vulnerability Management" June 10, 2019 5.0 I use Netsparker as a Consultant for my clients. I'm very satisfied about the product and how this software help our client to check the security level of the web applications. We also help our clients to build a remediation plan (through the report of Netsparker is very easy and quick perform that task) and through Netsparker checks that all the remediations implemented are in place Pros I like Netsparker because is very easy to use, but at the same time has a lot of options that allow an expert user to customize the level of scanning. Also make authenticated scan is very easy (several options are available). Report templates are different and cover all your needs. Cons When do concurrent scans it consumes a lot of resources. Alternatives considered [Acunetix](https://www.capterra.com/p/171379/Acunetix/) Reason for choosing Invicti I made a trial and compare the results of the different products and Netspaker was the more effective, easy to use and with better reports. Review Source Response from Invicti June 11, 2019 Thank you for your review of Netsparker, this is much appreciated. We are glad to hear the software satisfies your and your clients' needs.

Cyber Security Banking Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Reliable and Efficient Vulnerability Management Tool" September 11, 2025 5.0 Overall, my experience with Invicti was very positive: it made vulnerability management much more straightforward and efficient. Once everything was set up, it provided consistent, actionable results that helped improve security with less manual overhead thus offering a great value for the money. Pros What I liked most about Invicti was how easy it made finding and prioritizing vulnerabilities without a ton of manual effort. It felt reliable and efficient, which gave me confidence in the results. The customer support was always swift and answered our questions with professionalism and on point. Cons The part I liked least about Invicti was that the interface sometimes felt a bit cluttered. It also took some time to fine-tune the scans to avoid false positives. But this is to be expected for such a complete product that offers all the relevant functionality. Review Source SS Salwa S. Network Security Engineer Banking Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Helpful Tool for Managing Application Risks" September 12, 2025 5.0 My experience with Invicti is good. It helps me find issues in applications faster and puts everything in one dashboard. I like that it saves time and gives a clear view of risks. Sometimes the reports are a bit too detailed, but overall the tool is useful and makes the job easier Pros Easy to use and not much false positive. the interface is friendly. The platform pulls together findings from different sources into one dashboard, so security leaders can easily see their overall application risks and manage them more effectively. Cons Some scans in Invicti are slower, especially for larger applications, and reports can feel too detailed at first. It takes time to adjust and filter the important findings. but it can be accepted. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Sr. Systems and Security Architect Research Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Too much money for a third rate product" September 12, 2018 3.0 We are required to run weekly vulnerability scans on many of our production websites and we try to use Netsparker to do these scans. We can schedule when the scans will run and they usually do run. The problem is, if the scan has a problem it must be canceled, otherwise it will never finish and no report will ever be generated. Pros Netsparker comes with an automation API so it is possible to include it as part of a Continuous Integration / Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) system. It usually works but not always. Cons There is almost no documentation about how to use the product. You are expected to open a support ticket and ask how to do some of simplest things and it usually take a day to get a response back from support. Often the response is, "We don't support that", or "We don't have a sample that does that". I one time asked for .Net Framework sample code to pull a report from Netsparker and the answer I got was "Go toe the GUI and select these buttons. The report will download." The problem was I needed to download the reports problematically. Other times I asked for .Net samples and was given Python code. They are the same, correct? Review Source Response from Invicti February 14, 2019 Hello, Thank you for your feedback. I am sorry to hear you have encountered such issues. Rest assured that this is not the norm, hence why I am personally reaching out to you. We do have extensive product documentation (https://www.netsparker.com/support/) and we pride ourselves on giving excellent product support, as can be seen by the many testimonials and case studies we have published. However sometimes things can go wrong. So can you please send me an email on mata@netsparker.com so I can personally look into this matter and iron out any issues there are, so you can benefit from our product. Looking forward to hearing from you. Mehmet ATA Technical Support Manager Jesper T. Section Manager R&D Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Security testing your software is a must" November 7, 2019 4.0 Using netsparker we're able to analyze and test our software on a regular basis. This is essential when our software is available directly on the internet. Pros Netsparker is pretty intuitive. It simulates a lot of different attacks and vulnerabilities and present the result in a variety of different reports. Cons It's somewhat expensive, at least if you want the enterprise version. It's not yet possible to ignore specific findings in later scans by marking them as false positives. Review Source Response from Invicti November 8, 2019 Dear Jesper, Thank you for taking the time to review Netsparker. We are glad to be of service to you & the Stibo Systems! PH Patrick H. Lead Ops Engineer Internet Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Continuous vulnerability scanning" February 26, 2019 5.0 Stands out in the space as being one of the easier to use tools. While OWASP ZAP is an excellent tool NetSparker takes the same principles to the next level and bundles it into an easy to use and highly valuable application security scanner SaaS! Pros UI is top-notch and easy to grok. It's highly efficient and customizable tool provide in depth reporting when you need it most. Support team is A+! Being able to generate multiple types of reports based on customer needs is quite useful. Cons Docs were a bit outdated or not easy to follow when we initially started using the product. Support has steadily been improving them and they look great now. Review Source Response from Invicti February 28, 2019 Thank you for your positive feedback. We are glad that Support documentation is improving. CE Chris E. Security and Compliance Manager Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Web Application Scanning with Netsparker" June 24, 2019 5.0 My years of experience with Netsparker have been nothing but positive and I truly enjoy using this tool to assess our web applications. Pros The software is very easy to use yet has extreme amount of customization for scanning any web application. Cons Without an intimate knowledge of the capability of the tool, you may miss out on truly reaping its benefits in deep scanning of web applications. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Chief Technology Officer Human Resources Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best product for dynamic SPA" February 19, 2019 4.0 Pros It is able to scan dynamic single page apps without hours of brittle scripting. The issues it finds are described fully with a clear indication of certainty. Reporting is flexible. Cons They are not a well known vendor so we have to explain why we use Netsparker vs some of the better known vendors Review Source VA Valliappan A. Senior Software Consultant Information Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "NetSparker - Security Vulnerabilty Scanning Tool and Helper" May 4, 2021 5.0 Netsparker is comparatively cheaper, and you can bargain i believe, compare to other tools like Accunetix etc. We compare a couple of them and decided this. Pros This tool has both web and desktop versions, with some licensing limitations. It scans your website, for issues and reports the issues and ways to fix them, online can leave it to run from cloud and do your work. Their pricing is not that high. Cons The desktop version when run on your system, it slows down everything in your system, so better to use the cloud base one. But these two versions have some difference i think. But overall we were happier with the package, but later as we did not need much, we did not renew it further. Reason for choosing Invicti The pricing was in comfortable range for the license we required along with features. Review Source SV Shashank V. Associate Vice President Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Must be there in your list of tools" June 10, 2019 5.0 Scanning critical web applications with ease and freedom of configuration. Pros We use Netsparker for scanning our customers applications. Ease of use and Flexibility gives us freedom to use it wisely and help is completing our projects in timely manner. Cons Credential scanning and captcha configuration difficulties. Review Source KH Kenneth H. Security Consultant - Penetration Tester Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A2N Review" June 24, 2019 5.0 We are solving several manual testing with the amazingly accurate automated scanner. Especially with the sign in features for those custom applications that reset session cookies. It logs in with a few custom scripts (which is also easy to implement with Netsparkers element clicking). Pros Its accurate findings and overall testing procedures. It enumerates more than other tools do with additional options to boot. Cons Lack of CSV reporting. I wish I could get the same exact reporting features the Detailed HTML reporting templates do but into a CSV format for easy integration with our own custom reporting templates. I also wish it did more reporting on Serialization attacks. Many web apps are extremely vulnerable to serialization attacks yet Netsparker does not escalate the vulnerability enough (unencrypted viewstate, unsigned viewstate, etc). Review Source CR Casey R. IT Security Engineer Financial Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Simple, easy, accuracte scanner" February 20, 2019 5.0 My overall experience has been positive. I would recommend the software to others and we will continue to use it. Just be ready to play some games with licenses if using the cloud version. Pros Netsparker is easy to use, easy to configure, and you can be up and running your first scan in a matter of minutes. The scan results offer details on how to remediate the findings as well as what they did to find and validate the finding. Cons One main issues. I would like to be able to change a domain. If I have a license for two domains, I should be able to rotate them. If server1.com goes EoL and server2.com has taken its place, I have to buy another subscription. Not cool. Review Source Response from Invicti February 22, 2019 Thank you for your feedback! We are glad that Netsparker is working out for you. Should you need to change a domain, you may do so upon renewal by contacting Support. NS Neil S. Owner Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great web application security scanner" February 19, 2019 5.0 Pros Netsparker helps harden my application by closing out vulnerabilities. We follow an agile development cycle, which includes performing frequent deployments. In the past, we have accidentally deployed vulnerable code, which was quickly fixed once Netsparker has flagged it. Cons Would be nice if the security scanner were to include scans to help harden the server and OS, but this seems to be strictly a web application scanner. I have to use a second product to scan the OS. Review Source Response from Invicti February 20, 2019 Thank you for your positive feedback. At present our plans are to focus on being the best web application scanner out there. BM Bilgin M. Manager Education Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "an easy effective web vulnerability scanner" June 20, 2019 5.0 Pros it is a easy of use product. It does not use excessive computer resource so you can install it on a laptop. It can give you a detailed vulnerability report. Cons You have to define target system features but it should discover the target system and it should adapt itself. Review Source Response from Invicti June 21, 2019 Thank you for submitting your review of Netsparker. We are delighted to be of service to your company. AARS Antony Arockia Raja S. Head Of IT Security Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Excellent and Easy in terms of Automated Security Scanning" June 3, 2019 5.0 Bugs within web applications and its been an wonderful journey with Netsparker. Pros Excellent and Easy in terms of Automated Security Scanning and less false positives. Cons Nothing I can say as Netsparker has been very helpful to our organization in identifying and fixing security vulnerabilities.

Senior Cloud Security Analyst Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great value for the price with stellar support" June 17, 2019 5.0 We currently use Netsparker as an Automated Web Application Scanner on the products we support. Scans are done on-demand at the end of Sprints as part of our involvement in the Developers SDLC. It has helped us build a good relationship to strengthen security in the products. Pros Any issues that we contact Netsparker Support on are answered very quickly with detailed information that helps us decide what to do. Cons There are issues that we end up labeling as False Positive, so that is disappointing. However, it doesn't change my opinion of the product. Review Source Response from Invicti June 19, 2019 Thank you for your review of Netsparker, we appreciate you taking the time to evaluate the product and are delighted to be of service to your business. SC Sean C. Director Consumer Goods Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Good, accurate scanner" February 22, 2019 5.0 Pros Easy to setup and get started. Offers on-prem capability linked to the cloud for scanning behind a firewall. Cons They moved away from being able to offer "packs" of scans where we could easily scan short lived sites. They only offer a subscription model intended for recurring scans. Review Source Response from Invicti February 26, 2019 Thank you for your positive feedback. We sincerely love having you as a Netsparker client. DM Dennis M. IT Security Specialist Government Relations Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Netsparker in Government" June 11, 2019 5.0 Pros The reports are well laid out and very comprehensive. One of the best things of the reports are the remediations it provides. The remediations give a lot of detail besides guiding you to a repair. Cons Sometimes the scans have to be customized due to the size of the application and I had to submit the scan to a Netsparker Engineer for customization.
