DAST / Pentest Proxy
DygDog vs. Burp Suite
Web application security testing platform
What is Burp Suite?
Burp Suite by PortSwigger is the industry-standard tool for professional penetration testers. Its intercepting proxy, scanner, and extensibility via BApps make it unmatched for manual security research and deep interactive testing. However, it is designed for point-in-time manual engagements rather than continuous developer-facing workflows, and its Enterprise edition carries significant cost.
Burp Suite is best suited for: Professional penetration testers and red teams. Pricing typically starts at Community: free / Pro: $449/yr / Enterprise: $6,995+/yr.
