Syed Hasan - PeerSpot reviewer
Partner experiences excellent technical support and seamless initial setup
In my opinion, if we are able to extract or show the report, and because everything is going towards agent tech and GenAI, it would be beneficial if it could get integrated with our code base and do the fix automatically. It could suggest how the code base is written and automatically populate the source code with three different solution options to choose from. This would be really helpful.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution communicates where to fix the issue for the purpose of less iterations."
"The SAST component was absolutely 100% stable."
"The value you can get out of the speedy production may be worth the price tag."
"The main thing we find valuable about Checkmarx is the ease of use. It's easy to initiate scans and triage defects."
"Less false positive errors as compared to any other solution."
"The product's most valuable feature is static code and supply chain effect analysis. It provides a lot of visibility."
"The only thing I like is that Checkmarx does not need to compile."
"The main advantage of this solution is its centralized reporting functionality, which lets us track issues, then see and report on the priorities via a web portal."
More Checkmarx One pros
"I used the tool to prepare for the interview as a Business Developer. It helped me improve my understanding on software security."
 

Cons

"You can't use it in the continuous delivery pipeline because the scanning takes too much time."
"This product requires you to create your own rulesets. You have to do a lot of customization."
"Checkmarx could improve the speed of the scans."
"Licensing models and Swift language support are the aspects in which this product needs to improve. Swift is a new language, in which major customers require support for lower prices."
"Updating and debugging of queries is not very convenient."
"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."
"The plugins for the development environment have room for improvements such as for Android Studio and X code."
"Checkmarx is not good because it has too many false positive issues."
More Checkmarx One cons
"I would like the tool to integrate AI and automation that is dedicated to detecting software vulnerabilities."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The interface used to create custom rules comes at an additional cost."
"If you want more, you have to pay more. You have to pay for additional modules or functionalities."
"The price of Checkmarx could be reduced to match their competitors, it is expensive."
"Its price is fair. It is in or around the right spot. Ultimately, if the price is wrong, customers won't commit, but they do tend to commit. It is neither too cheap nor too expensive."
"I believe pricing is better compared to other commercial tools."
"This solution is expensive. The customized package allows you to buy additional users at any time."
"It is a good product but a little overpriced."
"It is an expensive solution."
