I have taken TryHackme, Pentesterlab and HackTheBox subscriptions as well but appsecengineer looks like a club of all these three.

"One of the best platform to learn appsec & cloud security"

5/5

What do you like best about AppSecEngineer?

Interactive courses with practical labs that are easy to use and learn effectively. Its diverse from beginner friendly to advance levels covering all aspects of appsec. The dashboard is very intuitive with showcasing achievments like badges,completed challenges etc. The courses are up to date and wide array of courses from k8's,Gen AI LLM,DevSecOps,Cloud Sec,Threat modelling & much more. Plus it has many challenges, sandbox playgrounds, Labs etc. Plus it has curated journey for specific roles & tasks that help you achieve your goals. Overall it has been immensly helpful for me to learn effectively and also easily implement few use-cases in my current role as well. They have nice integration with discord as well for discussion with community. Their customer support is top notch and always able to address any issues if i had. The challenges and wide range of topics help me scale any hurdle in appsec learning i have. I recommend this to anyone interested to learn appsec as its easy ,fun and effective . I use it very often and participate sometimes in their webinars as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AppSecEngineer?

Some of the modules or courses are pretty advanced such as Owasp or K8's. It took me a while to understand as coming from soc background but the learning path helped me align. I would love if they included like CTF's that make challenges even more fun. You need to dedicate enough time & patience to learn the skills. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AppSecEngineer solving and how is that benefiting you?

There are wide areas of application & cloud security that either some vendors overcharge or dont have included in their modules at all and not provide for individuals. Appsec engineer is affordable and helps address this problem teaching devsecops,cloud security & adv appsec courses that enhances your skills without going through long duration bootcamps. You can choose specific topics and learn the skillset. There are challenges and labs that give practical exposure which is hard to find (for ex,GCP security). The badges upon completion of tasks helps you to showcase to your peers & manager to get good recognition within team and share your knowledge. It has also helped me identify the underlying issues and rectify them in my current company. Thanks to the knowledge i gained from here . It also has boosted my confidence to take up CTF's and learn both offense & defensive side of security. The course are up to date and new courses being added regularly helps me hooked & motivated.

"Exceptional Hands-On Security Learning Platform"

5/5

What do you like best about AppSecEngineer?

AppSecEngineer offers some of the most practical and hands-on security courses I’ve ever taken. I enrolled in AI & LLM Security, DevSecOps, Web Application Security, and Secure Code Review tracks, and each course went beyond theory into real-world, scenario-driven exercises. The labs are incredibly interactive, replicating realistic environments where you can safely test and apply security skills. The content is always up-to-date with the latest threats and best practices, and the explanations are clear, concise, and easy to follow. The platform structure makes it easy to progress from fundamentals to advanced concepts without feeling overwhelmed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AppSecEngineer?

The course content is excellent, but it would be great if I could create my own customized learning paths and track my progress more effectively. Everything else is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AppSecEngineer solving and how is that benefiting you?

I like how all the knowledge is gathered in one place in a well-structured way, making it easy to find and focus on specific skills. AppSecEngineer helps me quickly upskill in secure coding and security awareness without wasting time searching for reliable resources. The hands-on labs and real-world scenarios directly address practical challenges in application security, improving both my technical expertise and my ability to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities in real projects.

0.5/5

What do you like best about AppSecEngineer?

I found the initial setup of AppSecEngineer to be easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AppSecEngineer?

I dislike that the site wasn't working for 2 weeks to sign up and now it won't accept payment. I submitted a help email and a Discord message, both of which have gone unanswered for two weeks. Actually having responsive support would help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"It's pretty bad"

0/5

What do you like best about AppSecEngineer?

I don't have anything good to say about this platform Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AppSecEngineer?

It's super obvious the whole website is vibe coded, I've just checked in the previous step that I'm an employee or a representative of this page. Plus the courses are obviously AI generated with bad AI generated diagrams and AI voiceover. The whole thing is bad. It feels like there was zero effort put into the React course Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Security training that serves more than just developers"

5/5

What do you like best about AppSecEngineer?

As an experienced GRC professional transitioning into a more hands-on DevSecOps position, I needed to quickly get up to speed in order to contribute to cloud and application security enhancements. I initially turned to AppSecEngineer to study OWASP topics, but soon realized that this only begins to reveal the platform’s full capabilities. The platform makes it easy for users to select role-based learning paths that cover practical toolsets, ranging from secure coding and cloud security to containers, as well as various security applications and testing techniques. The support team is very responsive and resolves issues quickly. Through AppSecEngineer, which I use very frequently, I was able to leverage some open-source security tools within my organization, which helped strengthen our overall security posture. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AppSecEngineer?

The course catalog includes a wide range of toolsets. As an engineer who often needs to get acquainted with new tools & topics, I find that adding tags to the learning videos would make it much easier to locate related content in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AppSecEngineer solving and how is that benefiting you?

In the current landscape of cloud-native applications, security training needs to address not just code, but also cloud environments and containers. AppSecEngineer helps developers and application security engineers incorporate security into their work, starting from the design stage and continuing through to post-deployment.

"Finally Found an AppSec Course That Actually Teaches Real Skills!"

4.5/5

What do you like best about AppSecEngineer?

Real hands-on labs - Finally, a course where you actually hack and fix vulnerabilities instead of just reading about them. The interactive environments are solid and you learn by doing.

Practical, current content - Covers everything from OWASP Top 10 to DevSecOps. I've been applying what I learned directly to my job. The instructors clearly have real-world experience and share actual war stories.

Logical progression - Builds from basics to advanced topics naturally. Even complex concepts click because of how they structure the learning path. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AppSecEngineer?

Limited community - Pretty isolated experience. Would love more ways to connect with other learners or get help when stuck. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AppSecEngineer solving and how is that benefiting you?

My Problem: Most security training is scattered, theoretical, and doesn't prepare you for actual AppSec jobs.

What AppSecEngineer Fixed:

One platform with actual hands-on labs where I break and fix real vulnerabilities. No more hunting across 20 different sites for decent content.

How It's Helping Me:

Real skills, not just theory - I've actually exploited SQL injections and fixed them

Job interview confidence - Can share specific examples instead of just buzzwords

Career progress - Getting callbacks for AppSec roles now

Time saved - Everything I need in one place Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy-to-Use, Practical AppSec Training"

5/5

What do you like best about AppSecEngineer?

I really enjoy how easy AppSecEngineer is to use. The courses are hands-on and practical, which helps me learn skills I can use right away. The short lessons make it simple to fit training into my daily routine, and the content is always up-to-date. The website is well-organized, so I can quickly find what I need. Plus, their support team is friendly and quick to respond when I have questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AppSecEngineer?

At first, the number of courses felt a bit overwhelming, and it took me some time to decide which ones matched my goals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AppSecEngineer solving and how is that benefiting you?

AppSecEngineer really solves a big problem for us—getting hands-on, role-specific, and up-to-date application security training. With most traditional training, you don’t get much of the practical side. But with their labs, we can actually practice in realistic environments without touching production systems. That’s made a huge difference—our team writes more secure code, we’ve seen fewer vulnerabilities, and our security maturity has jumped. Plus, because it’s on-demand, we can train our teams across different time zones without the scheduling nightmare Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Most comprehensive platform with hands-on practical learning"

5/5

What do you like best about AppSecEngineer?

The courses offered by AppSecEngineer are the best way to explore the topics with practical approach, the courses are focused on handling real world challenges with a structured and practical approach. I especially like their Security Architect course and Devsecops, which covers all the major pain points faced by an organisation and prepares the learner to be ready to face challenges in real world. The courses are so well crafted to nurture all the essential to advanced skills necessary, with AppSecEngineer courses you not only learn you apply concepts practically which rewires how you think and solve a problem.

"Sr Manager Cyber Security"

4.5/5

What do you like best about AppSecEngineer?

I think course has designed in a way that maps to the most of the job description in market for devsecops this will help you get into the interview process quickly because your resume selection is first round and you pass that quickly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AppSecEngineer?

Nothing as such I know its growing program and I would suggest them to do more and more research on competitors for similar security courses and build more program around security domains. I have bought it 5 months back around and they have added lots of topics post that Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AppSecEngineer solving and how is that benefiting you?

So basically, When you come from the GRC back ground which is more process orientated and you targeting something like DevSecOps or Application Security you need to work really hard as they are different domain and I am from non-coding background. This tool really helped me simplifying complex topics. They designed small video on each topic so you don't spent more time and learn the intended topic quickly. I would suggest taking help from ChatGPT also due to lot of jargons are unknown for you so to get things handy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from AppSec Engineer of AppSecEngineer

Thank you for your feedback! We're pleased to hear that our course has helped you transition from a GRC background to DevSecOps and Application Security. We will definitely take your suggestion to use ChatGPT into consideration to make the learning experience even better.
