Find out in this report how the two Application Security Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable features of Checkmarx are the Best Fix Location and the Payments option because you can save a lot of time trying to mitigate the configuration. Using these tools can save you a lot of time."
"Less false positive errors as compared to any other solution."
"The reports are very good because they include details on the code level, and make suggestions about how to fix the problems."
"The solution has good performance, it is able to compute in 10 to 15 minutes."
"The setup is fairly easy. We didn't struggle with the process at all."
"The most valuable feature is the application tracking reporting."
"It shows in-depth code of where actual vulnerabilities are."
"The UI is user-friendly."
"Easier http to https redirect using page rules"
"The solution offers the flexibility to control configuration rules."
"The technical support is good."
"It is easier to configure and develop documentation to see how we have configured firewalls."
"The UI is good."
"There are key things that are used for our enterprise customers, such as Lambda and DNS."
"Cloudflare offers CDN and DDoS protection. We have the front end, API, and database in how you structure applications."
"Smaller businesses have seen great ROI due to the low investment and strong performance."
"Checkmarx is not good because it has too many false positive issues."
"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."
"The product can be improved by continuing to expand the application languages and frameworks that can be scanned for vulnerabilities. This includes expanded coverage for mobile applications as well as open-source development tools."
"If it is a very large code base then we have a problem where we cannot scan it."
"You can't use it in the continuous delivery pipeline because the scanning takes too much time."
"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 to see the DAST solution in the future."
"Checkmarx could be improved with more integration with third-party software."
"Support response time could be improved."
"The timing aspect can lead to it being considered overpriced. This is a particular concern we have with Cloudflare, as they may struggle with accurately detecting the client."
"There should be a specific price list for enterprise-level customers."
"I think the APIs are a little bit hard for us to work with. The APIs could be more open so that we could integrate better with our SolarWinds or our monitoring solution."
"The reporting can definitely be improved to offer a lot more explanation on something that may have happened or has actually happened."
"One area of improvement is in the Access Rules. Hypothetically, if we wanted to block or challenge traffic outside of the United States, the only way to currently do that (as far as I know) is to enter every single country outside of the United States. That could be a labor intensive job. A solution could be to enable users to create a rule where traffic is only allowed within a certain country."
"The pricing could be improved."
"There are some issues with the CDN services."
