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.
TO
Good core scanning, a helpful GDPR assessment template and very good technical support
The core scanning, the scanning process, has got a very nice pass management module. It's fantastic. The last time we did it, the customer was trying to make the SAP system match the GDPR process. We were able to use it for that benchmark. It was very important. The GDPR assessment template that is being used in the process application benchmark and analyzing landscape came in very handy. It was very useful because it also gave notifications.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The SAST component was absolutely 100% stable."
"The user interface is excellent. It's very user friendly."
"The UI is very intuitive and simple to use."
"The setup is fairly easy. We didn't struggle with the process at all."
"The setup is very easy. There is a lot of information in the documents which makes the install not difficult at all."
"I like that you don't have to compile the code in order to execute static code analysis. So, it's very handy."
"Scan reviews can occur during the development lifecycle."
"The most valuable features of Checkmarx are its integration with multiple SCM solutions and CICD tools, its ability to scale according to user licenses, and the quick scanning process."
"The core scanning, the scanning process, has got a very nice pass management module. It's fantastic."
 

Cons

"I would like to see the tool’s pricing improved."
"Integration into the SDLC (i.e. support for last version of SonarQube) could be added."
"The Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) feature should be better."
"Creating and editing custom rules in Checkmarx is difficult because the license for the editor comes at an additional cost, and there is a steep learning curve."
"C, C++, VB and T-SQL are not supported by this product. Although, C and C++ were advertised as being supported."
"As the solution becomes more complex and feature rich, it takes more time to debug and resolve problems. Feature-wise, we have no complaints, but Checkmarx becomes harder to maintain as the product becomes more complex. When I talk to support, it takes them longer to fix the problem than it used to."
"The interactive application security testing, or IAST, the interactive part where you're looking at an application that lives in a runtime environment on a server or virtual machine, needs improvement."
"The product can be improved by continuing to expand the application languages and frameworks that can be scanned for vulnerabilities. This includes expanded coverage for mobile applications as well as open-source development tools."
"The anomaly detection could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Checkmarx is comparatively costlier than other products, which is why some of the customers feel reluctant to go for it, though performance-wise, Checkmarx can compete with other products."
"The solution is costly."
"It is an expensive solution."
"The interface used to create custom rules comes at an additional cost."
"I believe pricing is better compared to other commercial tools."
"We have a subscription license that is on a yearly basis, and it's a pretty competitive solution."
"We have purchased an annual license to use this solution. The price is reasonable."
"The pricing is competitive and provides a lower TCO (total cost of ownership) for achieving application security."
