What differentiates Burp Suite from other similar products?

there are no other tools that can perform as well as burpsuite, charlsproxy and fiddler and other tools are not as capable. fiddler is okay for intercepting the desktop based application which currently burp is not able to do but I simply forward the traffic from fiddler to burp as burp is just better at everything.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Everything! its a very good tool with all the necessary requirement for appsec.

What do you dislike most about this product?

it needs support for non http based protocol interception as there is no tool to do this properly

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

go for the tool and also the brupsuite academy, as it will teach how to use the tool and most common attack tactics.

Pros

Feature Ratings Average rating of all product features, some of which may not be shown below

Automation Able to automate regressive testing and perform repeat tasks in a very rapid fashion (as fast as the target system’s hardware will allow).​

Crawling Once a system has been penetrated, crawling should occur to determine how far unauthorized access has extended.

Reconnaissance Analysis of the target system to gather information order to assess its susceptibility to attack, and to plan for the attack strategy.

Host Target Scanning Ability to scan across a defined spectrum, including port numbers, protocols, IP address ranges, etc.​

Maintaining Access Maintaining persistent access to the application or system with the rationale being, the longer a hacker has access to a system, the more damage they can do.

Payload Transport The penetration software should mimic hackers' ability to gain unauthorized access in order to drop harmful payload (e.g. malicious code) onto a target system.

Countermeasures Circumvention The pen testing tool should perform like a hacker employing techniques to circumvent countermeasures aimed to prevent a security risk.

Diversity of Tools Penetration testing software often come in a suite of individual tools, each designed to penetrate different aspects of a system.

Exploits Simulates the exploits that will likely be implemented once the system is penetrated.

Multi Faceted Testing Penetration testing tools should have the ability to test a wide range of platforms, systems and applications.

Reporting Reporting of both strengths and vulnerabilities of the target system.
