Checkmarx One and Pentera are competitors in the application security market. Checkmarx One tends to have the upper hand with its broad language support and ease of integration.
Features: Checkmarx One offers comprehensive static application security testing capabilities and integrates with multiple repositories. It supports a wide range of programming languages for both uncompiled and compiled code. Pentera automates vulnerability assessments, showcases attack surface mapping, and provides remediation steps based on actual exploit demonstrations, offering unique insights into cybersecurity.
Room for Improvement: Checkmarx One could reduce false positives, increase language support, and add dynamic testing capabilities. Improving affordability and licensing flexibility are crucial for smaller businesses. Pentera could enhance by refining its licensing model to be more accessible to smaller organizations and improve dashboard specificity for easier vulnerability management.
Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Checkmarx One allows deployment on-premises or in cloud environments, offering flexibility to suit various infrastructures. While technical support is well-regarded, there can be delays and added costs for premium support. Pentera primarily offers an on-premises approach with a hybrid cloud option. Their technical assistance is quick and of high quality, especially useful for enterprises managing complex environments.
Pricing and ROI: Checkmarx One is priced for enterprises that need extensive features despite a higher cost. Its ROI is evident in quicker application rollouts and resolved vulnerabilities. Pentera has a competitive cost that delivers significant return by identifying security loopholes, particularly its skills in ransomware defense testing.
Some customers consider the ROI favorable, but facing difficulties now due to changes in the licensing model, which has made it more expensive compared to last year.
