From $475 per user/year (Professional)

Professional is inexpensive for what it does; Enterprise is quote-based by scanning agents and applications.

Free tier for small teams on Mend's developer products.

Community Edition is free but omits the scanner and rate-limits key tools.

• Licence compliance reporting is the strongest in the category and often the reason legal approves a release.
• Reachability analysis reduces the transitive-dependency alert flood.
• Automated remediation pull requests.

• The reference tool for manual application penetration testing — every security professional knows it.
• Exceptional scanner accuracy, particularly for injection classes.
• Professional Edition is remarkably good value at under $500 per year.

• SAST is weaker than dedicated code-analysis vendors.
• Enterprise pricing and sales process.
• Interface is dated in places.

• Community Edition is too limited for serious automated work.
• Requires security expertise; it is not a push-button product for developers.
• Enterprise licensing is a significant step up in cost.

Enterprises where open-source licence compliance is as important as vulnerability management.

Security teams and penetration testers, plus enterprises needing scheduled authenticated scanning.
