What do you like best about BeEF?

I love how easy it is to setup BeEF and distributing the webpage to hook. In a few minutes I can have malicious pages up and ready for attack. That's less time spent setting up and more time spent exploiting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BeEF?

A downside of BeEF is that it has a very narrow chance of hooking a user. This isn't BeEF's fault, but a problem with the attack vector in general. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BeEF solving and how is that benefiting you?

On a Red Team we need every opportunity for exploitation. BeEF is our go-to tool for attacks through the web browser. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
