Fortify on Demand Previous Solutions

Jayashree Acharyya - PeerSpot reviewer
Director at PepsiCo

We use SonarQube alongside Micro Focus Fortify on Demand.

The difference between the two is Micro Focus Fortify on Demand handles the security testing and SonarQube does more in-depth level code testing.

We've been working with SonarQube for five years. SonarQube can show us the initial test and how your code is developed over time. It gives us insight into how a specific project is progressing. That's the great thing about SonarQube. Once the code goes into the Fortify or Nexus, it's mostly a safety check. SonarQube catches most of the vulnerabilities in Python at the development stage.

We did not use a different solution previously. Before we had this solution, we were just evaluating other solutions and looking at the costs, and trying to bring in something newer, like an integrated automated secure stack, or something like that.

Sr. Manager 5G & MEC (Edge) Strategy at Verizon

I’ve used Rapid7 and Qualys Security Solutions in Managed Service Environments for previous clients. Both are really good solutions, but I’ve not utilized any other On-Demand Solution.

I switched because my client uses HP as its core product set. I needed to use Fortify and the FoD Solution allowed me to be up and running within a few short days.

We did not use another solution prior to starting our evaluation that includes Fortify on Demand. People were relying on some open-source static code analyzers. However, I don't think that it was very reliable.

Enterprise Systems Analyst at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees

We didn't have a previous solution. We researched a couple of the tools, but we ended up using Fortify because of the comprehensive scans they have, and mainly because they are focused on the kind of apps that we have and the kind of requirements we have. They are able to cover most of the standards and practices that we need to adhere to.

We have also tried SonarQube, but Fortify on Demand appealed to us more due to their source code review with emphasis on open source vulnerabilities. Fortify seems stronger in that aspect and we like to use many open source libraries in our work.

We previously used SonarQube which is an open-source solution. We switched because we needed an easy-to-understand and configure UI.

We also use WebInspect, SonarQube, and other security tools in addition to this solution. The use of particular tools depends on the project and the project manager that I speak with.

Prior to working with Fortify on Demand, we worked using the code analysis capability in Microsoft Visual Studio. That is where you have things like the recommended best practices for .NET. It flags what lools like bugs.

I previously used ShiftLeft, but Fortify on Demand gives me a portal, and it's much easier to get details about the issues affecting us.

This is the first solution that was implemented. I inherited this from somebody else. We are a government organization, so we have to do an RFP next year to renew. We'll see how it goes.

We tried to do it by hand (which was very time consuming and error-prone) and some tools built-in to Visual Studio (which was not widely accepted by individuals).

I currently use other solutions. We gave HP Fortify on Demand a try and we are very happy with the results.

We've used various other tools, including the Fortify on-premise solution. We chose Fortify on Demand as it is cost effective, scalable, easy to deploy, and helps us to manage our vulnerabilities centrally.

I have used SonarQube but not at the same level. It has some functionalities that are related to security. It does not go as deep as Micro Focus Fortify on Demand. 

We have evaluated other tools that are competitors of Micro Focus Fortify on Demand, but we still decided to keep Micro Focus Fortify on Demand.
