Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Both automatic and manual code review (CxQL) are valuable.""The features and technologies are very good. The flexibility and the roadmap have also been very good. They're at the forefront of delivering the additional capabilities that are required with cloud delivery, etc. Their ability to deliver what customers require and when they require is very important.""Most valuable features include: ease of use, dashboard. interface and the ability to report.""The only thing I like is that Checkmarx does not need to compile.""The setup is very easy. There is a lot of information in the documents which makes the install not difficult at all.""The user interface is excellent. It's very user friendly.""The main advantage of this solution is its centralized reporting functionality, which lets us track issues, then see and report on the priorities via a web portal.""The solution is scalable, but other solutions are better."

More Checkmarx One Pros →

"It's become the pinnacle point for anything that enters the network or anything that's passing through to production to first be affected by IP360, hardened, and up to standard. For our integrity management, one was deployed in the bank about two years ago and that's still going to expand the usage and the product itself. That will go hand in hand with training and expanding the product as for where it's deployed.""We could manage our entire IP range with the solution.""Tripwire IP360 is a very stable solution."

More Fortra Tripwire IP360 Pros →

"If you want something that’s not provided out of the box, then you can write it yourself and integrate it with SOAtest.""We do a lot of web services testing and REST services testing. That is the focus of this product.""Since the solution has both command line and automation options, it generates good reports.""Every imaginable source in the entire world of information technology can be accessed and used.""The solution is scalable.""Automatic testing is the most valuable feature.""They have a feature where they can record traffic and create tests on the report traffic.""Generating new messages, based on the existing .EDN and .XML messages, is a crucial part or the testing project that I’m currently in."

More Parasoft SOAtest Pros →

Cons
"The reports are good, but they still need to be improved considering what the UI offers.""The plugins for the development environment have room for improvements such as for Android Studio and X code.""I expect application security vendors to cover all aspects of application security, including SAST, DAST, and even mobile application security testing. And it would be much better if they provided an on-premises and cloud option for all these main application security features.""It would be really helpful if the level of confidence was included, with respect to identified issues.""Some of the descriptions were found to be missing or were not as elaborate as compared to other descriptions. Although, they could be found across various standard sources but it would save a lot of time for developers, if this was fixed.""I would like the product to include more debugging and developed tools. It needs to also add enhancements on the coding side.""They can support the remaining languages that are currently not supported. They can also create a different model that can identify zero-day attacks. They can work on different patterns to identify and detect zero-day vulnerability attacks.""Implementing a blackout time for any user or teams: Needs improvement."

More Checkmarx One Cons →

"The reporting functions can use improvement. There is room for growth because reporting functions differ a lot depending on what you're going to output. It depends on whether it's for technical or senior management and how it's interpreted. There could be growth within the reporting functionality side.""We need to dedicate time and resources to keep it running.""I am not very impressed by the technical support."

More Fortra Tripwire IP360 Cons →

"Tuning the tool takes time because it gives quite a long list of warnings.""From an automation point of view, it should have better clarity and be more user friendly.""During the process of working with SOAtest and building test cases, the .TST files will grow. A negative side effect is that saving your changes takes more time.""The feedback that we received from the DevOps of our organization was that the tool was a little heavy from the transformation perspective.""Reporting facilities can be better.""Enabling/disabling an optional element of an XML request is only possible if a data source (e.g., Excel sheet) is connected to the test. Otherwise, the option is not available at all in the drop-down menu.""Parasoft SOAtest has an internal refresh function where you can refresh the software to show the changes you’ve made in your projects. Unfortunately this function does not work properly, because it often does not show the changes after you’ve hit te refresh button a few times.""The summary reports could be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It is the right price for quality delivery."
  • "I believe pricing is better compared to other commercial tools."
  • "The pricing was not very good. This is just a framework which shouldn’t cost so much."
  • "The pricing is competitive and provides a lower TCO (total cost of ownership) for achieving application security."
  • "It is a good product but a little overpriced."
  • "The license has a vague language around P1 issues and the associated support. Make sure to review these in order to align them with your organizational policies."
  • "​Checkmarx is not a cheap scanning tool, but none of the security tools are cheap. Checkmarx is a powerful scanning tool, and it’s essential to have one of these products."
  • "We got a special offer for a 30% reduction for three years, after our first year. I think for a real source-code scanning tool, you have to add a lot of money for Open Source Analysis, and AppSec Coach (160 Euro per user per year)."
  • More Checkmarx One Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "I believe the price compares well within the market."
  • "The product was expensive for us."
  • More Fortra Tripwire IP360 Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "From what I understand, Parasoft SOAtest isn't the cheapest option. But it has a lot to offer."

  • "I think it would be a great step to decrease the price of the licenses."
  • "It is an expensive product, so think carefully about whether it fits your purposes and is the right tool for you."
  • "We are completed satisfied with Parasoft SOAtest. The ROI is more than 95%."

    Some of Checkmarx’s features include:

    • Source code scanning: Detect and repair more vulnerabilities before you release your code.

    • Open-source scanning: Find and eliminate the risks in your open-source code.

    • Interactive code scanning: Scan for vulnerabilities and runtime threats.

    • Open-source security for infrastructure as code: Identify and fix insecure IaC configurations that put your application at risk.

    Reviews from Real Users

    Checkmarx stands out among its competitors for a number of reasons. Two major ones are its ability to enable developers to secure their code with a single management dashboard and its high-speed scanning abilities.

    PeerSpot users note the effectiveness of these features. A CEO at a tech services company writes, “The most valuable features are the easy-to-understand interface, and it’s very user-friendly. We spend some time tuning to start scanning a new project, which is only a few clicks. A few simple tunes for custom rules and we can start our scan. We can do the work quickly and we don't need to compile the source code because Checkmarx does the work without compiling the project. The scanning is very quick. It's about 20,000 lines per hour, which is a good speed for scanning.”

    A director at a tech services company notes, “The features and technologies are very good. The flexibility and the roadmap have also been very good. They're at the forefront of delivering the additional capabilities that are required with cloud delivery, etc. Their ability to deliver what customers require and when they require is very important.”

    A senior manager at a manufacturing company writes, “The identification of verification-related security vulnerabilities is really important and one of the key things. It also identifies vulnerabilities for any kind of third-party tool coming into the system or any third-party tools that you are using, which is very useful for avoiding random hacking."

    Tripwire IP360 is a powerful vulnerability management solution that identifies and prioritizes network vulnerabilities for remediation. It is highly effective in scanning devices and applications, improving security posture, ensuring compliance, and managing risks. 

    Users value its detailed reporting, user-friendly interface, and seamless integration with other security tools for efficient security management.

    Parasoft SOAtest delivers fully integrated API and web service testing capabilities that automate end-to-end functional API testing. Streamline automated testing with advanced codeless test creation for applications with multiple interfaces (REST & SOAP APIs, microservices, databases, and more).

    SOAtest reduces the risk of security breaches and performance outages by transforming functional testing artifacts into security and load equivalents. Such reuse, along with continuous monitoring of APIs for change, allows faster and more efficient testing.
