It is one of the best tools for pentesting, included with Kali Linux and by default it is completely filled with scripts that you can use to carry out attacks. You can also download thousands more scripts from the internet or create your own scripts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For me, it was very complicated at first, but after 3 years of experience using this software, it is easy to use but requires very high knowledge of computing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lots of modules automate your work. And it got awesome features like setting up a socks4 proxy or enabling autoroute. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Metasploit is extremely powerful and versatile, from scanning to exploiting, to creating your own payloads it has everything you could possible need for a penetration test or vulnerability analysis of an environment. The pro version of metasploit is more user-friendly to people who do not prefer to use the command-line, which has everything in an easy to find area to execute. The command-line version is just as powerful, it just requires that you are familiar with the various switches and options with metasploit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Theres not a lot to dislike with Metasploit, other than the cost and the potential for an exploit to cause an application to go down or restart. If you are not careful with the options running in Metasploit, you can accidentally cause a service, website, or application to go down or crash, so use with caution. The pro version has an easy to use GUI vs the free version thats on kali and other penetration operating systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
