Pricing and Cost Advice | ||
"They just changed their pricing model two weeks ago. They went from a per-app license to a per-megabyte license. I know that the dynamic scan was $500 per app. Static analysis was about $4500 yearly. The license is only for the number of users, it doesn't matter what data you put in there. That was the old model. I do not know how the new model works." "They have just streamlined the licensing and they have a number of flexible options available, so overall it is quite good, albeit pricey." "For the value we get out of it, coupled with the live defect review sessions, we find it an effective value for the money. We are a larger organization." "I don't really know about the pricing, but I'd say it's worth whatever Veracode is charging, because the solution is that good." "Veracode's price is high. I would like them to better optimize their pricing." "If I compare the pricing with other software tools, then it is quite competitive. Whatever the price is, they have always given us a good discount." "Veracode is expensive. Some of its products are expensive. I don't think it's way more expensive than its competitors. The dynamic is definitely worth it, as I think it's cheaper than the competitors. The static scan is a little bit more expensive, around 20 percent more expensive. The manual pen test is more expensive, but it is an expensive service because it's a manual pen test and we also do retests. I don't think it is way more expensive than the competitors, but it's about 15 to 20 percent more expensive." "We use this product per project rather than per developer... Your development model will really determine what the best fit is for you in terms of licensing, because of the project-based licensing. If you do a few projects, that's more attractive. If you have a large number of developers, that would also make the product a little more attractive." | "The product is expensive, at least initially, in comparison to other products in this category." "There are different options available with respect to licensing." "The cost is $30,000 USD for one year to cover WAS (Web Application Security) and the VM (Virtual Machine) security in a company with 200 employees."

The automated service enables regular testing that produces consistent results, reduces false positives, and easily scales to secure a large number of websites. Proactively scans websites for malware infections, sending alerts to website owners to help prevent black listing and brand reputation damage. | Our mission is to help everyone involved in software engineering create secure and trustworthy code without slowing down. Combining the fields of databases, programming languages, data science and security we're making the world’s software truly searchable, so that even deep meaningful questions about security can be answered, helping software organizations better understand their code, engineering processes and people. |
