"I like that it provides a detailed report that lets you know the risk index and the vulnerability.""I find it immensely helpful because it's not just about generating code; it's about ensuring efficiency in the execution.""We are using this solution to increase the quality of our software and to test the vulnerabilities in our tools before the customers find them.""I've found the reporting features the most helpful.""The feature that I have found the most valuable in Kiuwan is the speed of scanning. Compared to other SaaS tools I have used, Kiuwan is much quicker in performing scans. I have not yet used it on a large code base, but from what I have experienced, it is efficient and accurate. Additionally, I have used it both manually and in an automated pipeline, and both methods have been effective. The speed of scanning is what makes it valuable to me.""It provides value by offering options to enhance both code quality and the security of the company.""Software analytics for a lot of different languages including ABAP.""​We use Kiuwan to locate the source of application vulnerabilities."
