Fast, Transparent DAST with Excellent GraphQL Handling and Strong Support **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Varun S. | Senior Application Security Engineer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 18, 2026 **What do you like best about Escape?** Escape is built with a wide range of protocols in mind and shows a strong understanding of how they work. In particular, I really liked how it handles GraphQL operations. I’ve gotten better results than with traditional DASTs. The UI/UX offers a lot of transparency into what the tool is doing and how it reports issues. Filtering is excellent, and it’s easy to adapt it to whatever prioritization matrix you use. Scans are also quick. Escape comes with the baseline integrations you need from day one. It covers the same integrations you’d expect from other DAST platforms, and the team is quick to work with you on new ones when there’s enough interest and it improves the overall experience. Support has been consistently strong: they typically respond within half a day and do a great job helping resolve issues. They’re also willing to jump on calls to debug and fix things together. Escape's AI Copilot is great on its own, but if you want to extend it further, you can use Escape MCP with other AI tools to build your own triage pipelines with custom context and knowledge. I was an early adopter of Escape, and their pricing has been fair since day one. **What do you dislike about Escape?** I’m mostly going to nitpick here. Escape could elevate the UX tremendously and connect its offerings more cohesively. It supports GraphQL schema files, but there’s no way to automate schema file updates. It would be a huge help if it had GitHub integration so it could automatically discover and pull schema files. Similarly, Escape Copilot is great at reasoning with the information that’s available, but that alone isn’t enough for me to fully trust its reasoning when the goal is to reduce triage time. Right now, I run custom pipelines via Escape’s MCP for triage agents, using my own code knowledge for correlation. If they introduce GitHub integration, they could leverage it to provide better triage outcomes. They could also improve the UX around load times. The platform takes a while to load pages and profiles. Lastly, Escape could improve their APIs & other component with customer side automations in mind. Escape generate good reports but there is no automated way to export those as PDFs. You have to manually fetch the data via API and format it where the escape insights and presentation is lost. **What problems is Escape solving and how is that benefiting you?** I’m using Escape to close the gaps in our current DAST coverage as Sigma becomes more API-first and GraphQL-heavy. Previous tool was falling short for me on GraphQL support, authenticated and logic-aware testing, and CI/CD integration, which meant weaker coverage for issues like BOLA/IDOR and multi-step workflow flaws. Escape helps me by giving me better coverage across the surfaces I actually care about - our GraphQL backends, APIs, and web apps - with native GraphQL discovery, authenticated and multi-user scanning, internal scanning through private locations, and more context-aware vulnerability detection. The practical benefit to me is that I can get broader coverage, higher-fidelity findings, and better operational fit. I’m expecting fewer false positives, better signal for developers, and tighter integration with our existing workflows so security testing is less of a bottleneck. ### 2. Excellent DAST disruptor **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 11, 2025 **What do you like best about Escape?** Escape has an excellent modern approach to DAST testing making it easy to manage complex single threaded scans. One of the nicest/underated features is the screen capturing in scan logs allowing teams to quickly validate if authentication has occured and to assess product coverage. **What do you dislike about Escape?** Since it is a start up there are some features missing but they have added them to the roadmap and quickly iterate through version based on user feedback a rarity in a stagnant market. **What problems is Escape solving and how is that benefiting you?** It solves complex single thread authentication scanning and creates simplicity to DAST scanning which no other vendor was able to provide for us. ### 3. Best API security testing tool in the world! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Nobuyuki I. | Global tech lead/Project Manager/Country Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 17, 2025 **What do you like best about Escape?** We have been using Escape platform for a couple years since the beginning of their product. It effectively addresses the pain points in API security management! The tool excels in detecting a wide range of API vulnerabilities, including business logic flaws often missed by other solutions. **What do you dislike about Escape?** The updates to the platform, while ensuring we always have access to the latest features and security enhancements, can sometimes require a bit of adjustment on our part. Nevertheless, the benefits of the tool far outweigh this minor inconvenience, and we look forward to seeing how the platform evolves to balance innovation with user familiarity. **What problems is Escape solving and how is that benefiting you?** We usually build AWS serverless applications for many clients, but we do not have experienced security engineers in our team that's where Escape platform helps us a lot. Reporting to the client becomes much easier as well, we want to apply Escape security testing to upcoming projects as a standard security assesments ### 4.

Lifesaver for GraphQL APIs with the armour library and pen test **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Simpy P. | Security Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 28, 2023 **What do you like best about Escape?** Firstly it solves GraphQL APIs by helping us use their graphql armour library that can be easily integrated. Secondly, after pen test, each issue provides a remediation, which are very effective. This saves time spend on web to searrch for remediaion. Customer support is very active, provides support as and when I needed. **What do you dislike about Escape?** There is an issue generated at pentest for Timeout, but the rermediation is not provided in graphql armor. This timeout feature be an opportunity to complete the security provided by graphql armour lib. **What problems is Escape solving and how is that benefiting you?** Our security before performing pen-test waas 3% and is now more than 75%. Thanks to the graphql libary they have open-sourced and the remediations provided for each issue. - [View Escape pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/escape/reviews?section=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-06-24+21%3A21%3A27+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=05088f82-84be-4e82-b942-308ce4c4cf7b&secure%5Btoken%5D=dee1a24de24b24e60f3cbce06e1f1c72439b7ece1f1b1dc694fd1064cc5c42c1&format=llm_user) ## Escape Integrations - [Akamai App Platform](https://www.g2.com/products/akamai-app-platform/reviews) - [Azure](https://www.g2.com/products/hopem-azure/reviews) - [Bamboo](https://www.g2.com/products/bamboo-metrix-bamboo/reviews) - [Bitbucket](https://www.g2.com/products/bitbucket/reviews) - [CircleCI](https://www.g2.com/products/circleci/reviews) - [Claude](https://www.g2.com/products/claude-2025-12-11/reviews) - [Claude Code](https://www.g2.com/products/anthropic-claude-code/reviews) - [GitHub](https://www.g2.com/products/github/reviews) - [GitLab](https://www.g2.com/products/gitlab/reviews) - [Google Cloud Platform (GCP) - Alliance](https://www.g2.com/products/google-cloud-platform-gcp-alliance/reviews) - [Harness](https://www.g2.com/products/harness-wealth-harness/reviews) - [Jenkins](https://www.g2.com/products/jenkins/reviews) - [Jira](https://www.g2.com/products/jira/reviews) - [Kubernetes](https://www.g2.com/products/american-cloud-kubernetes/reviews) - [Postman](https://www.g2.com/products/postman/reviews) - [Travis CI](https://www.g2.com/products/travis-ci/reviews) - [Wiz](https://www.g2.com/products/wiz-wiz/reviews) ## Escape Features **Administration** - API / Integrations - Extensibility - Reporting and Analytics **Administration** - API / Integrations - Extensibility **Performance** - Issue Tracking - Detection Rate - False Positives - Automated Scans **Risk Analysis** - Risk Scoring - Reporting - Risk-Prioritization **API Management ** - API Discovery - API Monitoring - Reporting - Change Management **Cloud Visibility** - Data Discovery - Cloud Registry - Cloud Gap Analytics **Analysis** - Issue Tracking - Reconnaissance - Vulnerability Scan **Analysis** - Reporting and Analytics - Issue Tracking - Static Code Analysis - Vulnerability Scan - Code Analysis **Network** - Compliance Testing - Perimeter Scanning - Configuration Monitoring **Vulnerability Assesment** - Vulnerability Scanning - Vulnerability Intelligence - Contextual Data - Dashboards **Security Testing** - Compliance Monitoring - API Verification - API Testing **Security** - Data Security - Data loss Prevention - Security Auditing **Testing** - Command-Line Tools - Manual Testing - Test Automation - Performance and Reliability **Testing** - Manual Testing - Test Automation - Compliance Testing - Black-Box Scanning - Detection Rate - False Positives **Application** - Manual Application Testing - Static Code Analysis - Black Box Testing **Automation** - Automated Remediation - Workflow Automation - Security Testing - Test Automation **Security Management** - Security and Policy Enforcement - Anomoly Detection - Bot Detection **Identity** - SSO - Governance - User Analytics **Agentic AI - Vulnerability Scanner** - Autonomous Task Execution - Proactive Assistance ## Top Escape Alternatives - [Postman](https://www.g2.com/products/postman/reviews) - 4.6/5.0 (1,746 reviews) - [GitLab](https://www.g2.com/products/gitlab/reviews) - 4.5/5.0 (880 reviews) - [Wiz](https://www.g2.com/products/wiz-wiz/reviews) - 4.7/5.0 (808 reviews)
