Acunetix by Invicti vs ManageEngine Patch Manager Plus

Likelihood to Recommend

Acunetix scales well from a small web development presence like ours to a full-scale enterprise focused on that. The various tools and sensors that provide assurance of the results and can give feedback down to the lines of code in the source are proof of this. Various integrations exist as well. The main thing for us is that it simplifies confirming and remediating potential issues in our code or proving that products we use have issues that we can then take to the vendor for correction.

Patch Manager is well suited for users that work remotely or away from main sites for long periods of time. It provides the patch administrator access to update the machine without requiring users to come to the head office.

All the patches are tested before delivered to us.
It's on cloud so we does not need to maintain Hardware and Network.
It also upgrades the hardware drivers & BIOS. But for BIOS only we use monthly updates no automatic policy just push to target computers.

Cons

Does not support multiple endpoints well (e.g. apps and services that do not reside at the same URL).
Has authentication problems with modern enterprise apps which involve a lot of redirects to unrelated endpoints, federated IDs, SSO, etc. This is related to the first point.
The vulnerability detection capability is not as robust as Burp Suite Pro + extensions, Metasploit + auxiliary modules, Nmap + scripts, etc.

More customization.
The same set of software should be available on both on-prem and cloud.
Better reporting features.

Alternatives Considered

ZAP is a free tool, and adequate. But it is to that extent less friendly. I would not be as confident of the results and it definitely can't produce reports on par with Acunetix. There would be a lot of legwork on our end if we desired to switch to this tool.

Patch Manager Plus does the most basic job of monitoring machines, deploying packages silently, and keeping machines up to date.

Return on Investment

Saved money compared to other commercial scanners, especially over the long run.
Scan speed seems to be pretty good compared to some of the bulkier commercial products out there. However, that largely has to do with proper configuration.
A downside is that is requires a bit of extra work just to get it set up to scan APIs, web services, etc.
