Find out what your peers are saying about Sonar, Snyk, CAST and others in Software Development Analytics."CAST's risk and security flow detection capabilities are highly effective, particularly in identifying security vulnerabilities. It is one of the most important and valuable features of the platform."
"It supports most programming languages."
"Our clients use CAST Highlight for cloud migration. This allows them to remove or remediate the blockers which are highlighted. This part of the solution shows improvement in quality and captures feedback for our clients."
"Used for controlling the technical debt and code quality."
"The most valuable feature of the CAST Application Intelligence Platform is its security dashboard which is a dedicated dashboard that's pretty helpful because it gives compliance checks based on some of the leading frameworks in the industry, such as ISO 5055, OWASP, CWE Top 25, and NIST security guidelines. I find the security dashboard of the solution and the information it provides pretty useful. The security dashboard of the CAST Application Intelligence Platform is a feature that stands out."
"Checkmarx pinpoints the vulnerability in the code and also presents the flow of malicious input across the application."
"The setup is fairly easy. We didn't struggle with the process at all."
"The product's most valuable feature is static code and supply chain effect analysis. It provides a lot of visibility."
"It's not an obstacle for developers. They can easily write their code and make it more secure with Checkmarx."
"The reports are very good because they include details on the code level, and make suggestions about how to fix the problems."
"What I like best about Checkmarx is that it has fewer false positives than other products, giving you better results."
"The main thing we find valuable about Checkmarx is the ease of use. It's easy to initiate scans and triage defects."
"The solution is always updating to continuously add items that create a level of safety from vulnerabilities. It's one of the key features they provide that's an excellent selling point. They're always ahead of the game when it comes to finding any vulnerabilities within the database."
"Implementation could be made more simpler as it is complex."
"The integration of this solution could be improved."
"The overall coverage of rules could be improved in the CAST Application Intelligence Platform because it does not cater to or cover all. For example, 2022 CWE coverage is still not available in the CAST Application Intelligence Platform. The solution also covers some NIST rules, but it does not cater to all rules. An additional feature I'd like to see in the next update of the CAST Application Intelligence Platform is for it to provide source code developer and contributor details, especially information on which areas of code were touched. This would be a good insight as the CAST Application Intelligence Platform looks into the source code."
"It has very few plugins to access different code repositories, so source code has to be fed."
"Areas for improvement in CAST AIP include enhancing support for implementation in complex environments and improving technical support to address organizational challenges alongside engineering issues."
"They could work to improve the user interface. Right now, it really is lacking."
"The product's reporting feature could be better. The feature works well for developers, but reports generated to be shared with external parties are poor, it lacks the details one gets when viewing the results directly from the Checkmarx One platform."
"The cost per user is high and should be reduced."
"Checkmarx could improve the REST APIs by including automation."
"The integration could improve by including, for example, DevSecOps."
"The tool is currently quite static in terms of finding security vulnerabilities. It would be great if it was more dynamic and we had even more tools at our disposal to keep us safe. It would help if there was more scanning or if the process was more automated."
"Creating and editing custom rules in Checkmarx is difficult because the license for the editor comes at an additional cost, and there is a steep learning curve."
"Its user interface could be improved and made more friendly."
