## Reviews

### "One of the best bug bounty platform" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *16 February 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I'm using Hackrate as a bounty hunter, and I found that there is a great team behind Hackrate. They validated my previous reports fast.
> 
> **Cons**: Small number of bug bounty programs.&#10;They are using CAPEC instead of CWE, it was a bit strange for me at the first time, but it is very similar in most of the cases.

### "My experience with Hackrate Bug Bounty Platform" — 4.0/5

> **Kis** | *18 March 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I'm pleased to have the opportunity to be a part of a Hungarian BugBounty platform.&#10;During the years I spent with BB on various platforms, I can say that Hackrate has really quick response time.&#10;I'm the part of the platform for almost one year, and I can barely say, that they are constantly evolving, and the most important thing is they listen to their community, and try to establish development approaches based on the user's feedback.
> 
> **Cons**: There are not many programs to test on, but since the platform is new, they have to find their place on the market, and I'm sure they will be flooded with clients.
> 
> My overall experience is absolute positive. They have professional analysts with short response times. Also they provide decent amount of reward for the bounties, and the reputation / badge system is well designed.&#10;Also for companies, who want to know their assets are safe, this opportunity provides reasonable assurance, because of the numerous userbase will make sufficient work on the targets.

### "Decent Emerging Platform" — 5.0/5

> **Soham** | *27 August 2024* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Less Competition. Fast resolution. Amazing technical support.
> 
> **Cons**: Low number of paid programs.&#10;Program I worked on had user issues that were not announced to researchers.&#10;So more communication with researchers would be better.
> 
> Decent but it can't be only way to work in bug bounties. I would have to work on other platforms like intigriti, bugcrowd, etc. to sustain my income.

### "Must have for any IT software company" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *8 April 2022* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The implementation was fast and seamless.
> 
> **Cons**: I could not tell any negative comment, we do not have any concern.

-----

### "Hackrate is a great alternative to mainstream bug bounty platforms" — 5.0/5

> **Mark** | *17 January 2022* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The Hackrate platform is easy to use and provides a great coverage to discover vulnerabilities in software. They are continuously expanding their researcher community.
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing. Maybe it is a bit less advanced than the major bug bounty platforms, but they fully compensate this with attention and customer support.
