Find out in this report how the two Application Security Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution's strongest point is that you can connect everything to it, giving you a full view of what's connected."
"The first valuable feature is that it is not a complex process to get it up and running. It was not complex at all. We were in a close relationship with the team that developed the app, and it worked in a few hours. The second valuable feature is the information that comes out of it."
"On the endpoint side, the most valuable feature is undoubtedly the cloud-based management capability, along with the ransomware protection, despite not encountering any instances so far."
"They offer free trials, which is quite appreciative and grabs more attention from new users and businesses."
"The solution offers sophisticated security techniques with unique characteristics that can be particularly valuable for the financial sector, which is where we develop apps."
"The tool's most valuable feature is AI, which makes operations easier. Moreover, it is easy to deploy."
"It offers high performance and improved productivity for users."
"By using a cloud application security solution, our company can save costs by reducing the need for additional security hardware and software and improving operational efficiency."
"The SAST component was absolutely 100% stable."
"I like that you don't have to compile the code in order to execute static code analysis. So, it's very handy."
"The solution has good performance, it is able to compute in 10 to 15 minutes."
"It gives the proper code flow of vulnerabilities and the number of occurrences."
"The solution allows us to create custom rules for code checks."
"The ability to track the vulnerabilities inside the code (origin and destination of weak variables or functions)."
"The administration in Checkmarx is very good."
"Overall, the ability to find vulnerabilities in the code is better than the tool that we were using before."
"I have encountered issues with Check Point CloudGuard Application Security's technical support. It also has missing configuration features."
"The trial version should be extended further so that QA test engineers can actually test the utilities in a real sense and can provide the maximum amount of feedback for enhancements."
"I advise proactive threat detection intelligence offline, which can also help monitor and ensure system checks and compliances are in place."
"CloudGuard for Application Security, like the other Check Point applications, has been presenting major latency problems when entering their administrative portal."
"They should improve in the delivery of more detailed reports with more information."
"One of the big problems we found in Check Point, in general, is the support."
"It doesn't detect user activity like some of its competitors. It's not a vulnerability, but it's a legitimate activity that it doesn't detect. It only detects vulnerabilities or misconfigurations."
"We would like the solution to be more economical since it is not accessible to all clients."
"The solution sometimes reports a false auditable code or false positive."
"The solution's user interface could be improved because it seems outdated."
"I would like to see the DAST solution in the future."
"They can support the remaining languages that are currently not supported. They can also create a different model that can identify zero-day attacks. They can work on different patterns to identify and detect zero-day vulnerability attacks."
"Checkmarx has a slightly difficult compilation with the CI/CD pipeline."
"It provides us with quite a handful of false positive issues. If Checkmarx could reduce this number, it would be a great tool to use."
"I would like to see the rate of false positives reduced."
"The product's reporting feature could be better. The feature works well for developers, but reports generated to be shared with external parties are poor, it lacks the details one gets when viewing the results directly from the Checkmarx One platform."
