Powerful AppSec Platform with Unified Visibility

Likeliness to Recommend

8 /10

What differentiates Qualys TotalAppSec from other similar products?

Unlike standalone AppSec tools, Qualys TotalAppSec unifies DAST, API security, and risk prioritization on a single cloud-native platform, with seamless integration into the Qualys ecosystem for continuous visibility and faster remediation

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The unified platform is my favorite feature. It consolidates AppSec capabilities with risk-based prioritization and integrates seamlessly with the Qualys ecosystem, making vulnerability management simpler and more effective

What do you dislike most about this product?

One area that could be improved is the initial learning curve. Because TotalAppSec offers a wide range of capabilities, new users may need some time to become familiar with all its features and workflows. However, once configured, it provides significant value through its unified approach.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Continue enhancing the user experience with a more intuitive Ul, richer reporting, and deeper automation while maintaining the platform's strong unified AppSec capabilities
