RE: Core Impact vs. Canvas vs. Metasploit

["Damien Dinh" <DDinh () sycuan com>]

I have Core Impact and it's gui is very easy to use; along with A-Z
automation (scan, exploit, and load mini shell agent), you can also just
drag any exploit onto a target and whamo!  It doesn't even break the
service you're exploiting; at this point, you can drag and drop an
agent; then you can automatically uninstall the agent as well.  Great
tool but just very $$$$$$.

Regards,
Damien Dinh

hi,
    i have been using CANVAS and metasploit, CANVAS has a better GUI
than metasploit, which impress me the most.
    i haven't CORE, so i have no idea.

Is the price the only differentiator?
