We performed a comparison between Checkmarx Software Composition Analysis and JFrog Xray based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Software Composition Analysis (SCA) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."What's most valuable in Checkmarx Software Composition Analysis is its ability to identify vulnerabilities in open-source components, especially if some critical issues exist."
"The tool's visual scan analysis shows me all the libraries' vulnerabilities and license types. It helps identify the most complex issues with licenses. It provides good visibility. SCA shows me all libraries that are vulnerable and the extent of their vulnerability."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"The product is stable and scalable."
"One of the strong points of this solution is that it allows you to incorporate it into a CICB pipeline. It has the ability to do incremental scans. If you scan a very large application, it might take two hours to do the initial scan. The subsequent scans, as people are making changes to the app, scan the Delta and are very fast. That's a really nice implementation. The way they have incorporated the functionality of the incremental scans is something to be aware of. It is quite good. It has been very solid. We haven't really had any issues, and it does what it advertises to do very nicely."
"What's most valuable in Checkmarx Software Composition Analysis is that it provides security from the start. In the traditional approach, an enterprise or company validates the solution before launching to a production environment, but in the modern approach, security must be checked and provided from the beginning and from the design, and this is where Checkmarx Software Composition Analysis comes in. The solution helps you make sure that every open-source application that you use is secure, and that there's no vulnerability inside that open-source application."
"The most valuable feature of Checkmarx Software Composition Analysis is the comprehensive security scan."
"I appreciate the user-friendly interface. The GUI is excellent, providing detailed information on outdated versions, including version numbers and the flow of library calls. This allows me to plan and prioritize library changes based on potential vulnerabilities, even if the affected library is indirectly used in my project. The tool offers specific guidance on addressing these issues."
"JFrog Xray's reporting feature has a lot of options in it, including scanning."
"I would say that this solution has helped our organization by allowing us to automate a lot of the processes."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"Good reporting functionalities."
"If multiple dependencies and vulnerabilities are found in a project, JFrog Xray is intelligent enough to tell you which vulnerability to target first."
"JFrog Xray shows us a list of vulnerabilities that can impact our code."
"The most valuable feature of JFrog Xray is the display of the entire internal dependencies hierarchy."
"I have received complaints from my customers that the pricing could be improved."
"The quality of technical support has decreased over time, and it is not as good as it used to be."
"Some of the recommendations provided by the product are generic. Even if the recommendations provided by the product are of low level, the appropriate ones can help users deal with vulnerabilities."
"I would rate the scalability a seven out of ten."
"Checkmarx Software Composition Analysis should improve dynamic analysis."
"Instant updates for end users to identify vulnerabilities as soon as possible will make Checkmarx Software Composition Analysis better. The UI of the solution could also be improved."
"It can have better licensing models."
"API security is an area with shortcomings that needs improvement."
"Reporting is crucial, but it is lacking in the current tool. Every organization seeks specific data points rather than general information. Therefore, we require customized reports from the Xray tool."
"Lacks deeper reporting, the ability to compare things."
"JFrog Xray does not have a dashboard."
"JFrog Xray's documentation and error logging could be improved."
"I think that the user interface should be expanded to provide customers with a better dashboard for reviewing their feedback regarding their images and the vulnerabilities that are associated with the images."
"Since we have been using the solution via APIs, there are some limitations in the APIs."
"The speed of JFrog Xray should improve. Other solutions have better performance."
