The OWASP's tool is free of cost, which gives it a great advantage, especially for smaller companies to make use of the tool.
OWASP Zap offers exceptional API capabilities and enhances application security through efficient vulnerability handling. It supports rapid updates, scalability, and integration with other tools, along with automation features to improve testing and deployment. Despite its strengths, documentation is outdated, and limited reporting tools can hinder understanding. Users often face slow scanning tools and numerous false positives, necessitating manual checks, affecting time efficiency and the thoroughness of deeper analysis.
