Hi All, I am currently looking at using/evaluating a tool called AppScan (by watchfire.com). So the question is in two parts and ASAP reply would be greatly appreciated. First: Without starting a flame war (hopefully) or marketing campaign (another hopefully) can any one tell me abut their experience with the software, what you find useful about it, what not, any annoyances, missing functionality, etc. Second: Can anyone recommend any simular type of software, preferably open source (although not at all essential), and describe its performance, usability and "usefulness" so to speak using AppScan as a reference point.
