We performed a comparison between JFrog Xray and Mend.io based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Software Composition Analysis (SCA) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution is stable and reliable."
"The most valuable feature of JFrog Xray is the display of the entire internal dependencies hierarchy."
"I would say that this solution has helped our organization by allowing us to automate a lot of the processes."
"If multiple dependencies and vulnerabilities are found in a project, JFrog Xray is intelligent enough to tell you which vulnerability to target first."
"Good reporting functionalities."
"JFrog Xray shows us a list of vulnerabilities that can impact our code."
"JFrog Xray's reporting feature has a lot of options in it, including scanning."
"The results and the dashboard they provide are good."
"It gives us full visibility into what we're using, what needs to be updated, and what's vulnerable, which helps us make better decisions."
"The most valuable feature is the inventory, where it compiles a list of all of the third-party libraries that we have on our estate."
"What is very nice is that the product is very easy to set up. When you want to implement Mend.io, it just takes a few minutes to create your organization, create your products, and scan them. It's really convenient to have Mend scanning your products in less than one hour."
"The inventory management as well as the ability to identify security vulnerabilities has been the most valuable for our business."
"The vulnerability analysis is the best aspect of the solution."
"We find licenses together with WhiteSource which are associated with a certain library, then we get a classification of the license. This is with respect to criticality and vulnerability, so we could take action and improve some things, or replace a third-party library which seems to be too risky for us to use on legal grounds."
"We can take some measures to improve things, replace a library, or update a library which was too old or showed severe bugs."
"I think that the user interface should be expanded to provide customers with a better dashboard for reviewing their feedback regarding their images and the vulnerabilities that are associated with the images."
"JFrog Xray does not have a dashboard."
"Lacks deeper reporting, the ability to compare things."
"Reporting is crucial, but it is lacking in the current tool. Every organization seeks specific data points rather than general information. Therefore, we require customized reports from the Xray tool."
"Since we have been using the solution via APIs, there are some limitations in the APIs."
"JFrog Xray's documentation and error logging could be improved."
"The speed of JFrog Xray should improve. Other solutions have better performance."
"If anything, I would spend more time making this more user-friendly, better documenting the CLI, and adding more examples to help expand the current documentation."
"The initial setup could be simplified."
"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."
"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."
"WhiteSource Prioritize should be expanded to cover more than Java and JavaScript."
"It would be nice to have a better way to realize its full potential and translate it within the UI or during onboarding."
"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."
"The turnaround time for upgrading databases for this tool as well as the accuracy could be improved."
