About Recon-ng
Recon-ng gathers open-source intelligence through independent modules for domains, hosts, contacts and credentials, storing results in a workspace database so findings from different modules combine. Its command interface mirrors Metasploit's.
Strengths
- Workspace database means results from many modules accumulate and correlate
- Familiar interface for anyone who has used Metasploit
Limitations
- Many modules need API keys from third-party services
- Reconnaissance against organisations you are not engaged by can be unlawful
