We performed a comparison between Checkmarx One and Fortify WebInspect based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two DevSecOps solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I like that you don't have to compile the code in order to execute static code analysis. So, it's very handy."
"The only thing I like is that Checkmarx does not need to compile."
"Both automatic and manual code review (CxQL) are valuable."
"The most valuable feature is the simple user interface."
"The solution is scalable, but other solutions are better."
"The feature that I have found most valuable is that its number of false positives is less than the other security application platforms. Its ease of use is another good feature. It also supports most of the languages."
"The report function is the solution's greatest asset."
"The most valuable feature is that it actually identifies the different criteria you can set to meet whatever standards you're trying to get your system accredited for."
"The solution's technical support was very helpful."
"The user interface is ok and it is very simple to use."
"When we are integrating it with SSC, we're able to scan and trace and see all of the vulnerabilities. Comparison is easy in SSC."
"Guided Scan option allows us to easily scan and share reports."
"The accuracy of its scans is great."
"I've found the centralized dashboard the most valuable. For the management, it helps a lot to have abilities at the central level."
"Technical support has been good."
"The solution is able to detect a wide range of vulnerabilities. It's better at it than other products."
"It is an expensive solution."
"They can support the remaining languages that are currently not supported. They can also create a different model that can identify zero-day attacks. They can work on different patterns to identify and detect zero-day vulnerability attacks."
"I would like to see the rate of false positives reduced."
"When we first ran it on a big project, there wasn't enough memory on the computer. It originally ran with eight gigabytes, and now it runs with 32. The software stopped at some point, and while I don't think it said it ran out of memory, it just said "stopped" and something else. We had to go to the logs and send them to the integrator, and eventually, they found a memory issue in the logs and recommended increasing the memory. We doubled it once, and it didn't seem enough. We doubled it again, and it helped."
"Checkmarx could improve the REST APIs by including automation."
"The validation process needs to be sped up."
"I really would like to integrate it as a service along with the SAP HANA Cloud Platform. It will then be easy to use it directly as a service."
"Checkmarx could be improved with more integration with third-party software."
"Lately, we've seen more false negatives."
"Fortify WebInspect's shortcoming stems from the fact that it is a very expensive product in Korea, which makes it difficult for its potential customers to introduce the product in their IT environment."
"Not sufficiently compatible with some of our systems."
"The solution needs better integration with Microsoft's Azure Cloud or an extension of Azure DevOps. In fact, it should better integrate with any cloud provider. Right now, it's quite difficult to integrate with that solution, from the cloud perspective."
"One thing I would like to see them introduce is a cloud-based platform."
"A localized version, for example, in Korean would be a big improvement to this solution."
"Creating reports is very slow and it is something that should be improved."
"The initial setup was complex."
