Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Our development team use this solution for static code analysis and pen testing.""It's straightforward, and it does not require a lot of time. It's a straightforward platform that you can use for performing scans or mitigating issues. It has a very good user interface. FAQs are also helpful in case you are not familiar with it.""It's good at identifying security issues. It can pinpoint issues very effectively.""The source composition analysis had very good reporting.""The coverage of the last vulnerabilities reported.""Provides the ability to understand the black zones in our system.""That it is a cloud-based solution is very valuable to us. We don't need that hardware running our scans and hosting the environment to be scanned. Also, the technology, the static scanning versus dynamic scanning produces a much better result, a more accurate result.""It helps me to detect vulnerabilities."

Cons
"I think for us the biggest improvement would be to have an indicator when there's something wrong with a scan.""It would be nice if Veracode were bundled with some preferred vendors like Salesforce and offered at a discount.""I think if they could improve the operations around accepted vulnerabilities, we would see improvements in our productivity.""One of the things that we have from a reporting point of view, is that we would love to see a graphical report. If you look through a report for something that has come back from Veracode, it takes a whole lot of time to just go through all the pages of the code to figure out exactly what it says. We know certain areas don’t have the greatest security features but those are usually minor and we don’t want to see those types of notifications.""We connected with Veracode's support a couple of times, and we got a different answer each time.""Their scanning engine is sometimes a little bit slow. They can improve the scan time.""There is also a size limit of 100 MB so we cannot upload files that are larger than that. That could be improved. Also, the duration of the scan is a bit too long.""The scanning takes a lot of time to complete."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "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."
