"The most valuable feature is the time to resolution, where it tells you how long it is going to take to get to a zero-base or a five-star security rating."
"The feature that I have found the most valuable in Kiuwan is the speed of scanning. Compared to other SaaS tools I have used, Kiuwan is much quicker in performing scans. I have not yet used it on a large code base, but from what I have experienced, it is efficient and accurate. Additionally, I have used it both manually and in an automated pipeline, and both methods have been effective. The speed of scanning is what makes it valuable to me."
"It provides value by offering options to enhance both code quality and the security of the company."
"The solution offers very good technical support."
"We use Kiuwan to locate the source of application vulnerabilities."
"I personally like the way it breaks down security vulnerabilities with LoC at first glance."
"I've tried many open source applications and the remediation or correction actions that were provided by Kiuwan were very good in comparison."
"We can create a Quality Gate in order to fail Jenkins jobs where the code coverage is lower than the set percentage."
"SonarQube is good in terms of code review and to report on basic vulnerabilities in your applications."
"Apart from the security point of view, I like that it makes it easy to detect code smells and other issues in terms of code quality and standards."
"I like that it has a better dashboard compared to Clockwork. It's also stable."
"Before you even compile, it can catch known vulnerability issues or patterns."
"We've configured it to run on each commit, providing feedback on our software quality. ]"
"We are using the Community edition. So, we don't have to incur any licensing costs. This is the best part."
"The most valuable features are the dashboard, the ability to drill down to the code, user-friendly, and the technical debt estimation."
"Integration of the programming tools could be improved."
"Kiuwan's support has room for improvement. You can only open a ticket is through email, and the support team is outside of our country. They should have a support number or chat."
"I would like to see better integration with Azure DevOps in the next release of this solution."
"Perhaps more languages supported."
"It would be beneficial to streamline calls and transitions seamlessly for improved functionality."
"The QA developer and security could be improved."
"The development-to-delivery phase."
"It could improve its scalability abilities."
"Having performance regression would be a helpful add on or ability to be able to do during the scan."
"I would like to see SonarQube implement a good amount of improvements to the product's security features. Another aspect of SonarQube that could be improved is the search functionality."
"The product needs to integrate other security tools for security scanning."
"The software testing tool capability could improve. It does not always integrate well. You have to use a specific plugin and the plugin does not always go in Apple's applications."
"I find it is light on the security side."
"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."
"The scanning part could be improved in SonarQube. We have used Coverity for scanning, and we have the critical issues reported by Coverity. When we used SonarQube for scanning and looked at the results, it seems that some of them have incorrect input. This part can be improved for C and C++ languages."
"The BPM language is important and should be considered in SonarQube."
