Why choose Beagle Security as your Qualys web app scanning alternative
Faster setup, simpler experience
Qualys WAS often requires complex onboarding and platform configuration. Beagle Security gets you scanning in minutes with an intuitive interface and minimal setup effort.
Advanced API and auth handling
While Qualys WAS supports web and API scanning, it struggles with modern authentication like MFA, SSO, and token-based access. Beagle Security seamlessly handles REST, GraphQL, and complex login flows right out of the box.
DevSecOps ready from day one
Beagle Security integrates effortlessly with GitHub, GitLab, Jenkins, and other CI/CD tools, helping fast-moving teams automate security without slowing down delivery.
Know your costs upfront.
Unlike Qualys WAS, Beagle Security offers transparent and easy-to-understand pricing plans. You'll always know what's included at each tier, with no bundled suites, surprise add-ons, or hidden costs.
