Pentera - The Complete AI Pentester
What do you like best about the product?
The best about Pentera is the user friendly UI, easy to use and fully automated
What do you dislike about the product?
What I dsilike about Pentera is the high resources utilization
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Pentera helps us in solving the problem of overflowing false positive when conducting penetration test. Pentera validates the vulnerabilities but verify if it is hackable or not. So in this features, we can determine what will be the priority to patch.
Pentesting Just Got Better with PENTERA!
What do you like best about the product?
The time it saves versus the manual way. We were able run more scan and spend less. The features are great and the support is very likely responsive.
What do you dislike about the product?
Maybe a little more improvement in handling false positive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use different Pentera modules daily, depending on our needs. The main issue it helped us solve is time—we’re more efficient and focused now.
The Ultimate Automated Pentesting Software
What do you like best about the product?
The ability of the tools to lessen the time of penetration testing versus the manual way. The validation is unique features that most VA doesn't have. With this tools, you can manage at ease and implement and deploy the software in just a few hours
What do you dislike about the product?
The reporting is not that very informative. It should improved more.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Pentera solves the problem of lack of expert in pentesting, the time and the result of false positives.

What do you like best about the product?
Pentera is fully automated, very quick to implement. The support is also above average. The integration is smooth.
What do you dislike about the product?
The disadvantage of Pentera is the limited OS or platform compatibility and requires high amount of system resources
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It solves the issue in high amount of false positives by validating vulnerabilities. It has also the features of prioritizing business assets in security perspective.
Comprehensive attack surface coverage and real-world threat emulation strengthen security while licensing models need improvement
What is our primary use case?
Common use cases include several features. The POC is completed before any customer goes for procurement. Once the POC is done, customers appreciate features such as comprehensive attack surface coverage, real-world attack emulation, and risk-based prioritization and remediation. The comprehensive attack surface coverage includes Omni Attack Surface, External Attack Surface Management (EASM), and Internal Network Validation.
The real-world attack emulation includes safe-by-design exploitation that emulates actual attack techniques and procedures without disrupting business operations. It can perform post-exploitation steps to create a full attack chain. Another feature is agentless deployment, which requires no agents or pre-installations on the customer environment, allowing for quick deployment and validation.
The Mitre ATT&CK alignment aligns attack scenarios with the Mitre ATT&CK framework, providing a standardized understanding of adversary tactics.
The solution is primarily used in BFSI (banking and financial sectors), telecommunications companies, and several large government organizations.
What is most valuable?
Comprehensive Attack Surface includes several features. Omni Attack Surface discovers, assesses, and exploits vulnerabilities across both internal networks and external assets, including cloud environments from a single platform. External Attack Surface Management (EASM) and Internal Network Validation test internal security controls and identify weaknesses within the internal network.
Automated Penetration Testing features are provided through the Pentera Surface module. Surface provides automated validation and penetration testing features with a proactive, continuous, and highly realistic approach to cybersecurity validation, helping organizations understand and reduce their true cyber exposure. They have AI-based reporting that leverages AI to identify patterns of exploitability over time, aggregate results across sites, and highlight recurring weaknesses.
They offer two types of reports: an elaborate technical report for CTOs and an Executive Summary for management. When customers see the reports after completing the POC, they are impressed by how detailed the technical report is, while management can understand what actions need to be taken to protect their network and infrastructure.
Recent Gartner reports indicate that traditional VAPT companies perform vulnerability testing at specific times, which creates security gaps. Pentera provides continuous validation, running 24/7 in the infrastructure. This means when any vulnerability appears due to firmware upgrades, OS updates, or software changes, it can be automatically identified in real-time.
What needs improvement?
The licensing model has changed from earlier versions. Previously, there was a 500 IP cap, and customers needed to buy a minimum of 500 IP and consider 500 domains. In Bangladesh, many large organizations don't have 500 domains, yet they need to buy the minimum requirement. The main challenge currently is the commercial aspect, as the product has become very expensive. They could improve by reducing the minimum requirements to 250 IP or 200 IP or 100 IP, and lowering domain requirements to 50 or 25 domains. This would help cover more customers.
For how long have I used the solution?
The reviewer has been working with Pentera for three years.
How are customer service and support?
The technical support is very good. When tickets are raised, they are taken seriously and resolved quickly. The reviewer rates the support as nine out of ten.
How would you rate customer service and support?
How was the initial setup?
The setup takes at least three to four days because all IPs need to be aligned. Once the setup is complete, it is very easy to operate.
What was our ROI?
Some customers consider the ROI favorable, but facing difficulties now due to changes in the licensing model, which has made it more expensive compared to last year.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The annual cost for all features is approximately 120,000 US dollars per year.
What other advice do I have?
The reviewer speaks from a sales perspective rather than a technical one. They recommend focusing on the features when presenting to customers, as traditional VAPT approaches cannot fulfill customer requirements. The solution is considered to be between simple and complex to use, with a neutral rating of seven out of ten. The overall product rating is 9 out of 10.
