Complete platform for DAST. With good false-positive accuracy. I also liked the amount of configurations we can make. Among other DAST tools I've used, I prefer this one. I recommend.

The onboarding process to get the tests running is very helpful. The StackHawk employees take the time if you have questions, and they are very willing to help. I like the technology of the test tool.
