The Pentest Tool You Deserve

Find & fix vulnerabilities before they hurt your business

Feature Comparison

Detectify

Pricing on the higher side

The surface monitoring plan by Detectify comes for $289/month. It strengthens the security of your internet-facing assets and detects vulnerabilities and weaknesses.

The functionality and user experience afforded by Detectify for its price are decent.

Probely

Decent value for money

Probely’s premium plan at 399/month  comes with application and API security testing for 5 different targets. It is also optimized for single-page apps. 

The API testing feature is a nice addition for this price point.

Powerful scanner but weak UI

Detectify offers visibility into your application and network assets and helps you run customized scans at different stages of app development.

It is a fine tool for monitoring attack surfaces across applications and running scans. However, when it comes to vulnerability analysis and management, the user experience could have been better. 

A lot of users have pointed at the UI as a weakness.

In-depth scans with varied use cases

Probely is equally adept in scanning API endpoints in single-page apps and scanning the entire API if it integrates with 3rd parties or multiple applications.

It is a great tool for scanning internal assets as well.

There are no complaints about the UI from users. However, the lack of cloud security oriented features strikes as a weakness. 

No pentest feature

Detectify doesn't come with a pentest feature. That means it cannot exploit vulnerabilities to find more insights about them or detect issues like business logic errors.

No pentest feature

Probely doesn't have a penetration testing feature either. While its application and API scanning products are on point, it lacks the depth of penetration testing.

No remediation support

Detectify conducts continuous surface monitoring and it can detect and report vulnerabilities, but when it comes to remediating those vulnerabilities, it doesn't have a support system in place.

No remediation support

Probely is on point with its vulnerability detection but not so much with remediation. It does not offer detailed remediation guidelines or in-call assistance to developers who are stuck with a certain vulnerability.

Integrations

Detectify integrates with Slack, Jira, and Splunk. You can use their API to connect the tool with your CI/CD pipeline. The procedure could have been easier. 

Integrations

Probely integrates with API/Webhook, Azure DevOps, CircleCI, DefectDojo, Jenkins, Jira, and Slack. They’ve thoroughly focused on customer feedback and improved this side of the offering.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes Astra the best VAPT provider?

Astra combines automated and manual pentest to offer the most comprehensive security testing solution, without burning a hole into your pocket. The pentest platform integrates easily with your CI/CD pipeline and the intuitive dashboard makes it easy to manage and monitor the vulnerabilities. It is a self-served tool, with excellent remediation support, and an impeccable record.

Do I need to make an upfront payment?

Yes, a Pentest is an in-depth exercise that requires hours of effort of human & technology resources. That’s why an upfront payment is expected.

Can I request a re-scan to check if the vulnerability is patched?

Definitely, once you’ve fixed the vulnerabilities you can request a scan simply by clicking a button on your dashboard. Following which, our engineers are notified and they plan a re-scan. If you are a business plan customer, you get a re-scan every month. If you’ve opted for a security audit separately then one re-scan is available to you.

Do you work with our developer in patching the vulnerabilities?

Yes, for sure. We assist your developers in fixing the vulnerabilities reported. Your developer can comment under each vulnerability if they have any questions regarding the fixation process.

What should I look for in a Pentest tool?

- A self-served tool with a capable team behind it to help you with roadblocks.

- Easy integrations with your SDLC.

- Value for money.

- Scan behind login pages.

- Remediation Support

Till what time can I ask for assistance for fixing?

You start seeing vulnerabilities reported by us from the day testing is started. You can ask for support in fixing the vulnerabilities for 30-days, starting from the day our engineers finish testing. During these 30 days, our engineers will be available to work with you or your developers and assist them in fixing bugs via the comment system of our dashboard. At any point, if the engineers feel that there is a need for a chat, they’ll be happy to talk to you over a chat too.

Does the vulnerability scanner/VAPT work only on a certain technology?

Not at all, the security audit and VAPT are agnostic of the technology stack and work well on all websites.

How to choose a VAPT company?

The main role of a VAPT service provider is to reveal all the underlying security vulnerabilities in your website. Always check for:

- # of tests

- VAPT methodology

- Depth of Penetration testing Report

- Video POCs

- Qualification of security engineers

- Certifications
