We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Used for controlling the technical debt and code quality.""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.""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.""It supports most programming languages.""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."

Cons
"Implementation could be made more simpler as it is complex.""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.""The integration of this solution could be improved.""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."

"Sometimes, when you configure parameters the hardware can't run, it will get stuck at those points without telling you what happened. It would be helpful if the error reporting provided more details about why the test setting is not running. It would be nice if there were a space in the hardware module for you to add some external hardware for more rigorous testing.""I would also like to see updates on a more frequent schedule.""The solution needs more ports, more speed, and more gigabytes.""CyberFlood's accessibility and support for multiple browsers could be better."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "I do know how the CAST Application Intelligence Platform is licensed, but I'm not able to give the cost because the price is not listed. My company works with individual vendors, so pricing is on a case-to-case basis, but the vendors give specialized pricing because of the enterprise deployment, though my team is aware of product pricing based on lines of code, based on the number of applications, etc., I'm unable to give the exact licensing costs of the CAST Application Intelligence Platform. My company doesn't have to pay extra for some features or services because all are included as part of the enterprise license. On a scale of one to five, with five being very cheap and one being very expensive, I would rate the CAST Application Intelligence Platform as three out of five."
