Automate Security Testing from Threat Found to Ticket Closed
4.9 /5 (12 reviews) Write a Review!Great Vulnerability Scanning Experience
Pros
The API is my favorite part of Probe.ly. Everything in the available in the web Interface is on the API, so it saves me and my team of developers a lot of time.
Cons
Still waiting on the Jira integration. But they have it in their roadmap, so hopefully it's coming soon.
Easy to use, deep inspection
The trouble that I had was fixed very quickly. The support department was very helpful.
Pros
Good automated inspection
Clear reports of scans
Proof of findings added into the reports
Solutions to get it fixed
Cons
It locks to one machine, but also to one domain. That gave Some trouble wegen trying to change the hostname.
Excellent customer service
Customer service is awesome, product is great
Pros
Ease of use, rapid and excellent support. Good price too.
Cons
A couple of software issues were noticed but these were very quickly rectified by their team
An intelligent vulnerability scanner designed to speak your developer's language
Probely's made my security team more productive. Scheduling and managing scans is simple, and the output is developer friendly, which decreases friction between the security team and developers.
Pros
- Output is developer-friendly. Full details of the scan results, test info submitted, and recommended fixes are all in the report, making it easier for devs to ingest and respond to vulnerabilities
- Flexible GUI that makes scheduling, managing, and monitoring scans simple and easy
- API-driven. Rather than sending spreadsheets or PDFs of vulnerability reports, we can easily pull data from the latest scan
Cons
- Somewhat limited functionality, e.g., can identify vulnerabilities in a web app, but not an out of date web server. Such a scenario would require multiple tools
- Custom vulnerability scoring may not align with everybody's vulnerability scoring. The reports include the CVSS score as well as Probely's assigned criticality, so it is possible to work around this.
Amazing service
Pros
I like almost everything about Probe.ly but one thing that really stands out is Probely’s support. They are really hands on and proactive when it comes to any problem we experience.
Cons
Nothing really. There’ve been some minor bugs but whenever it happens customer support comes in and fixes the issue pretty quickly.
Great product that has saved me hours and grief
Pros
Probe.ly provides us with Compliance reports that helped us achieve PCI compliance. Another part of Probe.ly that I like is the API. The API is complete, and you can implement it pretty quickly.
Cons
There’s not much feedback while the scan is running. There are some vulnerabilities shown while the scan is running, but you can’t know how much time is left until the end of the scan.
My expirience with Probely scaner
Pros
I most of all liked the accuracy of the indication of the available problem on the website. I could deal with security concerns quicker.
Cons
There is nothing what would not be pleasant to me.
Great scanner to find real vulnerabilities
Pros
The evidence based reports provided by Probe.ly let us quickly check if a vulnerability is legit, and provide us with evidence for it.
Cons
I really can’t think of any negative aspects of Probe.ly

Good product, easy use, not to expensive compared to the competitors.
Pros
It's straight forward in it use, and does do what it says it should do.
Cons
Even though the api is extensive, you can only scan fixed targets, so scanning several containers after build where the address is changing from is not possible. limiting our scans to staging and prod only,
Decent software for vulnerability scans
Pros
Easy to use, has decent amount of features.
Cons
The API support could get better. Like more advanced controls using APIs and improved documentation
Value for every euro
Pros
We started using probely mainly for the automation potential in our CI/CD potential and ended up growing into the solution, right now I would say is our best tool we have evaluation value for our $ spent.
Cons
I would say the things I like the least are the same across all companies we at OLX have very specific needs that are sometimes dev dependent on the vendor side and as many other probely customers we would love to have a quicker feature request into production.
Response from Probely
Thanks for the review Luis! Feedback is always important in order to continue developing a strong tool, talk to you soon!
Intuitive and inexpensive
Pros
The API. It includes everything from the web interface and is really easy to set up. Also, they provide you with the opportunity to add a multiple environment target. You can test both your staging and your production environments for the price of one. Most of their competitors charge you for both.
Cons
Not much to dislike. Everything seemed to run smooth.
It makes security so much easier for our developers. We integrated the lightning scans in our CI pipeline and since then everything is really hands-off and automatic.
