**What do you like best about Vega?**

I like so many things about vega! The UI is very friendly for the users. In terms of functionality, I found it very much perfect. Including OWASP top 10, all the major & minor vulnerabilities can be detected through vega. I can easily configure based on the requirements. The chance of false-positive detection is also meager. Overall, I prefer vega for my all type of vulnerability assessment.

**What do you dislike about Vega?**

I am a long-time user of vega. Till today, I found nothing noticeable to mark as a negative portion. Vega is love.

**What problems is Vega solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I am performing vulnerability assessment & penetration testing using vega. I found it perfect for solving security issues as I am working as a Cyber Security Specialist. I have tested few things to compare with other vulnerability assessment tools & found better results in vega. Also, it takes less time to complete a full assessment.
