What our shortlists say about the one we picked.
Best for: Teams scanning diverse app types including SPAs, APIs, and legacy HTML
Acunetix fits the widest range of organization sizes on this list, from SMB to enterprise. That breadth comes with a trade-off: the platform is not as deeply integrated into the broader Checkmarx or Qualys ecosystems as some competitors. If you want a standalone DAST scanner that covers a lot of ground without requiring a platform commitment, Acunetix is a strong choice.
