In general, it can scale.
There are certain scenarios where scalability becomes an issue. I can't really give any examples, however, while it can scale, there may be hiccups.
We may have up to a few hundred users on the solution.

This solution is not very easily scalable, and seems to lack the capability to manage a high volume of applications.
I rate the scalability a six out of ten, and we have 100 staff engineers using this solution.

If you have enough memory, it's scalable. You need a lot of memory for it to be scalable.
Once you have enough memory, it is stable and scalable, and there are one or two parameters you can modify to make it even more scalable. Scalability is relatively fine.
For the scanning option, the default is to use only one main language, but you can request multiple languages. It's scalable.
Nowadays, nearly all the developers, when they finish development, either they or the team leader runs it, and they have to fix the problems.

It is scalable in terms of being able to run multiple instances for different products. We have approximately 10 users, which is the size of our application security team.
I would like to increase our usage of this product, but it will ultimately depend on the company's strategy.

My setup is standalone. They do have a scalable version, but it's not something I need.
We're not using it a lot. Its usage is once a month. The way our organization works is that we don't do static code analysis every day. It's more on an as-needed basis. So, it's no fault of the Checkmarx tool. It's just not something that we've been working on.

Don Robbins
Software Configuration Manager at a tech vendor with 501-1,000 employees
Checkmarx can scale up very easily. Anything that can be automated can be scaled. If I can automate it, I can scale it. Under the hood, it does the management of the scan engines well.
We have some large code bases, that according to the Checkmarx internal people, based on the number of lines of code, everything is 100% optimized hardware-wise. The fastest that the scan should take is 13 hours. That's a full scan, an incremental is a little different.
The problem with Checkmarx from that standpoint is, in our most active code base, we want it to be scanned frequently. At one point in time, it was taking up to 26 hours to do a single scan. We were scanning twice a week or four times a week.
That same code base has two separate instances of itself. A long time ago they started as a common code base and then they split. Now, in essence, we have two products based on the same code base. We had to scan them twice a week.

The solution is quite scalable. We are not using the SDLC edition, but with that version, the developers can use different plugins and initiate the scan from their own development environment.
There are three or four members in our security team who use this tool. At the current time, we are happy with this solution and do not plan to increase its usage to the point where we need a different license.

I can't speak to the scalability. I don't deal with scaling. The usage is limited. We aren't attempting to expand it. We only do two to three processes at the same time.

Deepak Kamra
Vice President at Arisglobal Software Pvt Ltd
Their licensing fees are rigid and this causes two main issues. One is a restriction in terms of scaling the product at an enterprise level. The number of licenses required for a sizable business is just too large. The solution forces a user to apply for the licenses not directly to the software and the software products are defined in a curious way. For that reason, I wouldn't say it's great at scaling.
