Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Apiiro's secrets detection feature has saved us several times, which we appreciate greatly.""The workflow automation is likely the best aspect of the solution."

More Apiiro Pros →

"The most valuable features are the segregation containment and the suspension of product services.""There's plenty of documentation available to users.""SonarQube is scalable. My company has 50 users.""The most valuable function is its usability.""I like that it has a better dashboard compared to Clockwork. It's also stable.""The integrations SonarQube provides with our software delivery pipeline are very seamless.""The overall quality of the indicator is good.""The product has a friendly UI that is easy to use and understand."

More SonarQube Pros →

Cons
"I would like support for our self-hosted Git server, other than GitHub, just regular Git.""User management is a little bit clunky."

More Apiiro Cons →

"If the product could assist us with fixing issues by giving us more pointers then it would help to resolve more of the warnings without such a commitment in terms of time.""If there was an official Docker image of SonarQube that could easily integrate into the pipeline would help the user to plug in and plug out and use it directly without any custom configuration. I am not sure if this is being offered already in an update but it would be very helpful.""SonarQube's detail in the security could be improved. It may be helpful to have additional details, with regards to Oracle PL/SQL. For example, it's neither as built nor as thorough as Java. For now, this is the only additional feature I would like to see.""We also use Fortify, which is another tool to find security errors. Fortify is a better security tool. It is better than SonarQube in finding errors. Sometimes, SonarQube doesn't find some of the errors that Fortify is able to find. Fortify also has a community, which SonarQube doesn't have. Its installation is a little bit complex. We need to install a database, install the product, and specify the version of the database and the product. They can simplify the installation and make it easier. We use docker for the installation because it is easier to use. Its dashboard needs to be improved. It is not intuitive. It is hard to understand the interface, and it can be improved to provide a better user experience.""I think the code security can be improved.""Technical support and the price could be better.""I would like to see more options for security, beyond the basics like SQL injection.""I would like to see dynamic code analysis in the next version of the software."

    Overview

    Apiiro is the leader in application security posture management (ASPM), unifying risk visibility, prioritization, and remediation with deep code analysis and runtime context.

    Companies like Morgan Stanley, SoFi, Rakuten, and Navan leverage Apiiro's ASPM to...

    Get complete application and risk visibility: Apiiro takes a deep, code-based approach to ASPM. Its Cloud Application Security Platform analyzes source code and pulls in runtime context to build a continuous, graph-based inventory of application and software supply chain components.

    Prioritize risks with code-to-runtime context: With its proprietary Risk Graph™️, Apiiro contextualizes security alerts from third-party tools and native security solutions based on the likelihood and impact of risk to uniquely minimize alert backlogs and triage time by 95%.

    Fix and prevent risks that matter—faster: By tying risks to code owners, providing LLM-enriched remediation guidance, and embedding risk-based guardrails directly into developer tools and workflows, Apiiro improves remediation times (MTTR) by up to 85%.

    Apiiro's native security solutions include API security testing in code, secrets detection and validation, software bill of materials (SBOM) generation, sensitive data exposure prevention, software composition analysis (SCA), and CI/CD and SCM security.
