Also, I appreciate that it's open-sourced, which adds to its flexibility. Plus, the initial setup was very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface is too old styled. If the interface is changed to more user-friendly or a customizable interface, it would be great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The detection mechanisms developed for ZAP are quite effective. It's easy to initiate an active scan or start crawling, and the built-in integration with Firefox is convenient. However, I find the user interface to be cluttered, so I primarily use it only for Active scans. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The UI can surely be made clearer similar to burp, and it would just outstand burp in a blink of an eye. Specially the request response windows are too narrow and tools and settings are just plain dropdown lists which is not so great to be navigating through. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Zap is one of the best web application security scanners. I think it has more features than Burp Suite. ZAP has more automated scan features, and the spider fuzz and AJAX spider are really amazing. I highly recommend using ZAP for automated scans. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This tool gives some false positive findings, so we need to check if all the findings are true or not. Moreover, it's a great tool for web application assessment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Owasp zap proxy is the best recon and penetration testing tool which contains the all things from manual testing to automation testing. For me, especially automatic testing is the best testing with AJAX spider and active scanning performing all vulnerability tests, which is really good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes in automation testing it gives false positives, but to avoid that, we have to configure all scanning and moreover install some scripts to reduce it. But overall, this tool is all-in-one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
