### "The web security companion" — 5.0/5

> **dirath** | *27 September 2019* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Burpsuite is in my opinion the best "man in the middle" tool for website pentration testing/exploit development. It gives the user some very powerful control over what's going on, needless to say how helpful the "repeater" and "intruder" functions are. LOVE IT
> 
> **Cons**: This tool is not for those who are not commited with their work or objective, as it is expensive(for me atleast) and i remember struggling to learn it's functionality at first.
> 
> I considered BurpSuite to be my goto tool for quite some time, never failed me. Sometimes i even wish i knew it earlier
