### "Acerca de Acunetix"

July 30, 2021

5.0

Me ha ayudado bastante cuando requiero llevar a cabo un análisis de vulnerabilidad o pentest, arrojándome el conjunto de vulnerabilidades que posee el sitio web o el aplicativo escaneado.

Pros

Lo que más me gusta de la herramienta de Acunetix es que realiza el escaneo de vulnerabilidades de modo automatizado y al concluir muestra las diferentes vulnerabilidades que deben ser remediadas para mitigar cualquier tipo de riesgo.

Cons

El producto ha llenado mis expectativas, ya que me ha permitido ayudar a mi empresa a prevenirse ante posibles amenazas.

Thank you for your feedback. In the most recent versions, the auditing of a web service has been integrated in the scanner. You can just create a normal scan for the web service, and Acunetix will proceed with scanning it as it used to do before.

### "Acunetix Vulnerability Scanner"

May 22, 2019

5.0

In general Acunetix is part of the security strategy in order to test all our applications before being promoted to Production

Pros

With the Vulnerability Scanner the company had audit almost every site and web application, detecting every vulnerability and planning how to fix it. This had help to keep safe all the information managed on the web applicantions.

Cons

One of the issues with Acunetix has been the price. It had incremented more that we expected.

### "Very good price/performance ratio (at least with the old licensing scheme)"

August 10, 2018

4.0

I mostly use it as the first tool to analyze an unknown website, especially for black-box activities.

Pros

Easy to use. It performs many checks that I previously used to do with a collection of other tools.

Cons

It would be great to see in real-time in the product interface what exactly the scanner is doing. Login Sequence Recorder does not always work.
