We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"JFrog Xray shows us a list of vulnerabilities that can impact our code.""The solution is stable and reliable.""If multiple dependencies and vulnerabilities are found in a project, JFrog Xray is intelligent enough to tell you which vulnerability to target first.""The most valuable feature of JFrog Xray is the display of the entire internal dependencies hierarchy.""JFrog Xray's reporting feature has a lot of options in it, including scanning.""Good reporting functionalities.""I would say that this solution has helped our organization by allowing us to automate a lot of the processes."

"The installation was straightforward.""It is easy to use for us developers. It supports so many languages: C#, .NET Core, .NET Framework, and it even scans some of our JavaScript. You just need the extension to upload the files and the reports are generated with so much detail.""Veracode provides faster scans compared to other static analysis security testing tools.""It's comprehensive from a feature standpoint.""It provides security of different Shadow IT activities in our environment, especially around application development and website hosting.""My experience with Veracode across the board every time, in all products, the technology, the product, the service, and the salespeople is fabulous.""I like its integration with GitHub. I like using it from GitHub. I can use the GitHub URL and find out the vulnerabilities.""It has caught lots of flaws that could have been exploited, like SQL injection flaws. It has also improved developer engagement with information security."

Cons
"Reporting is crucial, but it is lacking in the current tool. Every organization seeks specific data points rather than general information. Therefore, we require customized reports from the Xray tool.""I think that the user interface should be expanded to provide customers with a better dashboard for reviewing their feedback regarding their images and the vulnerabilities that are associated with the images.""Lacks deeper reporting, the ability to compare things.""JFrog Xray's documentation and error logging could be improved.""Since we have been using the solution via APIs, there are some limitations in the APIs.""JFrog Xray does not have a dashboard.""The speed of JFrog Xray should improve. Other solutions have better performance."

More JFrog Xray Cons →

"We have approximately 900 people using the solution. The solution is scalable, but there is a high cost attached to it.""There were some additional manual steps or work involved that we should not have needed to do.""It would help if there were a training module that would explain how to more effectively integrate the SAST product into the build tool, Jenkins or Bamboo.""It can have more APIs and capabilities to handle other things well. We were doing a trial for it. There were two things that I looked at: one was uploading some Java-related content and the other was uploading database SQL files and having the review done on the quarterback. The Java portion of it worked fine, and it was pretty seamless, but the database portion was not. We uploaded some files to use for vulnerabilities, and the tell-all portion of it was pretty easy. We uploaded a war file and Java files, and we got the reports back on these. They were pretty clear to understand. We did the same thing for the database portion for the most part. However, the content wasn't getting uploaded in a predictable fashion, and it was slow and hard to get done. We had to do it over and over. After it indicated that the content was uploaded, there were no results. There were zero search findings. It was possibly a user error, something that we didn't do correctly, but they had acknowledged that it was something they were currently enhancing. This is something that could be made easier if they haven't already done that. I don't know how many releases they've had in that timeframe. I haven't looked at it since then. It was a trial period.""While Veracode is way ahead of its competitors on Gartner Magic Quadrant, it's a bit more expensive than Fortify. It's a good solution for the cost, but if we had a high budget, we would go with Checkmarx, which is much better than Veracode.""It can be a bit complex because it takes a lot of time to have it complete the task.""The interface is too complex.""Veracode should include the feature to run multiple scales at a time."

Pricing and Cost Advice
Information Not Available
  • "Its complexity makes it quite expensive, but it’s all worth it, with all the engineering in the background."
  • "The pricing is pretty high."
  • "The worst part about the product is that it does not scale at all. Also, microservices apps will cost you a fortune."
  • "I think licensing needs to be changed or updated so that it works with adjustments. Pricing is expensive compared to the amount of scanning we perform."
  • "It's worth the value"
  • "Pricing seems fair for what is offered, and licensing has been no problem. All developers are able to get the access they need."
  • "It can be expensive to do this, so I would just make sure that you're getting the proper number of licenses. Do your analysis. Make sure you know exactly what it is you need, going in."
  • "The licensing and prices were upfront and clear. They stand behind everything that is said during the commercial phase and during the onboarding phase. Even the most irrelevant "that can be done" was delivered, no matter how important the request was."
