"Checkmarx needs to be more scalable for large enterprise companies."
"Checkmarx needs to improve the false positives and provide more accuracy in identifying vulnerabilities. It misses important vulnerabilities."
"There is nothing particular that I don't like in this solution. It can have more integrations, but the integrations that we would like are in the roadmap anyway, and they just need to deliver the roadmap. What I like about the roadmap is that it is going where it needs to go. If I were to look at the roadmap, there is nothing that is jumping out there that says to me, "Yeah. I'd like something else on the roadmap." What they're looking to deliver is what I would expect and forecast them to deliver."
"The product can be improved by continuing to expand the application languages and frameworks that can be scanned for vulnerabilities. This includes expanded coverage for mobile applications as well as open-source development tools."
"The solution's user interface could be improved because it seems outdated."
"The solution's dashboards could be improved and made more user-friendly."
"The dashboard could be more user-friendly."
"The reporting has a very limited customization capability."
"It isn't easy to manage vulnerabilities in Tenable."
"The technical support should be improved. Currently, some attacks are detected while others are not."
"They have a general dashboard for web application scanning, but the dashboards and reporting can be improved. They probably have some features in their roadmap."
"The cloud and the on-premises versions have their own controllers, and there is no way to centrally manage controllers."
