Find out in this report how the two Application Security Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I have found the most valuable feature is security control. I also like the branching and cloning software."
"The most important features of GitLab for us are issue management and all the CI/CD tools. Another aspect that I love about GitLab is the UI."
"The dashboard and interface make it easy to use."
"Everything is easy to configure and easy to work with."
"I like GitLab's security and SAS tools."
"It's a great toolbox where the CI/CD pipeline is the fundamental component, but there are so many other features that you can pull from, which makes it a very powerful tool. My current client is using AWS, and they can, of course, use AWS CodePipeline, but GitLab is much more mature than that, and it also gives you the freedom to decide to go to another platform or have a multi-cloud strategy and things like that. That freedom for me is also very valuable."
"I have found the most valuable features of GitLab are the GitClone, GitPush, GitPull, GitMatch, GitMit, GitCommit, and GitStatus."
"This product is always evolving, and they listen to the customers."
"The solution is stable."
"The most valuable feature is the reporting, which provides a good level of detail with respect to vulnerabilities."
"The solution's instant reports feature is the most effective for detecting threats."
"The most valuable features of Tenable.io Web Application Scanning are the integration into specific use cases and scanning. All of the features of the solution are useful."
"The most effective feature of the product is the ability to scan the entire environment."
"Tenable provides the end analysis results covering all the published vulnerabilities and information on the market."
"We can get detailed information about vulnerabilities."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"Merge conflicts and repository maintenance could improve. If there is someone new to the system they would not know if there is a conflict."
"We have only seen a couple of issues on Gitlab, which we use for building some of the applications."
"The solution could be faster."
"I rate the support from GitLab a four out of five."
"The price of GitLab could improve, it is high."
"We'd always like to see better pricing on the product."
"The integration and storage capabilities could be better."
"It would be really good if they integrated more features in application security."
"The solution's dashboards could be improved and made more user-friendly."
"Tenable.io Web Application Scanning could improve by offering faster fuzzing."
"It would be great if there were a dashboard that is more user-friendly."
"The reporting has a very limited customization capability."
"The cloud and the on-premises versions have their own controllers, and there is no way to centrally manage controllers."
"The dashboard could be more user-friendly."
"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."
"I would like for them to add proxy filtering, where you can transfer and alter the package. It is fully automated. Other web application testers programs are actually proxy software, and the proxy software gives you the flexibility of modifying the outgoing package, which will actually help you in exploiting any vulnerability in detail."
