Provide detailed vulnerability assessment reports with testing examples. It provides reports for developers for developing options and reports can be generated according to the required compliance standard like > > **Cons**: Acunetix doesn’t provide comprehensive CSV format downloads. Provided CSV files format needs to improve. Accunetix currently supports only web assessment. It can.not be used as all in one tool. Recently they have changed their licensing method and price is quite expensive compared to other tools. > > Acunetix is quite a strong tool for web assessments even though it did not support other types of assessments. Both on prem and cloud scanners are available. Less false positives compared to other tools and price is a bit expensive. Lots of options available to download reports. Overall its a good tool for web assessment. ----- ### "Too many issues not found" — 3.0/5 > **Jesper** | *10 August 2018* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: Very easy to use, nice GUI and reports... > > **Cons**: Too many issues were not discovered by Acunetix, and subsequently found by customers wielding different tools. > > Acunetix helped us get going with security scans. In the end, the lack of support for certain attacks made us change. ----- ### "Acunetix always gives me a very good first impression" — 5.0/5 > **Kai** | *10 August 2018* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: We are using Acunetix now for more than 5 years. It is very easy to create new targets and quickly start automatic scans. The AcuSensor often gives me a good hint where I should take a closer look manually. Our management likes the well structured reports. > > **Cons**: If a web application is very complex, the scanner sometimes does not really manage to find its path through the process. Since the application changed to the web gui, it is more complicated to specify pre-recorded login sequence. The user has to log into the server, where Acunetix is hostet and start a different application to record the sequence. ----- ### "Scanning made Simplified" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *19 December 2018* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Acunetix has a variety of network vulnerability scanning methods called "tests" which can be easily configures with a quick setup. Also, the GUI is very pleasant and user friendly plus you don't have to be an expert on the subject matter to use this. > > **Cons**: Does not support Active Directory and static review process. And scan time is highly dependent on your down-link. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/77622/acunetix?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/77622/acunetix) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
