"The dashboard view and the management view are most valuable."
"The solution boasts a broad range of features and covers much of what an ideal SCA tool should."
"We can take some measures to improve things, replace a library, or update a library which was too old or showed severe bugs."
"Our dev team uses the fix suggestions feature to quickly find the best path for remediation."
"Mend has reduced our open-source software vulnerabilities and helped us remediate issues quickly. My company's policy is to ensure that vulnerabilities are fixed before it gets to production."
"The overall support that we receive is pretty good. "
"The results and the dashboard they provide are good."
"Protect's reporting GUI is very basic. To get all statuses from the APIs, we needed to write our own KPI dashboard to provide reports."
"Contrast Security Protect needs to improve integration."
"There's room for improvement in the initial setup."
"Needs better ACL and more role definitions. This product could be used by large organisations and it definitely needs a better role/action model."
"I rated the solution an eight out of ten because WhiteSource hasn't built in a couple of features that we would have loved to use and they say they're on their roadmap. I'm hoping that they'll be able to build and deliver in 2022."
"The dashboard UI and UX are problematic."
"The initial setup could be simplified."
"We specifically use this solution within our CICD pipelines in Azure DevOps, and we would like to have a gate so that if the score falls below a certain value then we can block the pipeline from running."
"WhiteSource needs improvement in the scanning of the containers and images with distinguishing the layers."
"They're working on a UI refresh. That's probably been one of the pain points for us as it feels like a really old application."
"It would be good if it can do dynamic code analysis. It is not necessarily in that space, but it can do more because we have too many tools. Their partner relationship support is a little bit confusing. They haven't really streamlined the support process when we buy through a reseller. They should improve their process."
