Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable feature is that it actually identifies the different criteria you can set to meet whatever standards you're trying to get your system accredited for.""It gives the proper code flow of vulnerabilities and the number of occurrences.""Apart from software scanning, software composition scanning is valuable.""The value you can get out of the speedy production may be worth the price tag.""One of the most valuable features is it is flexible.""The features and technologies are very good. The flexibility and the roadmap have also been very good. They're at the forefront of delivering the additional capabilities that are required with cloud delivery, etc. Their ability to deliver what customers require and when they require is very important.""The UI is user-friendly.""The user interface is excellent. It's very user friendly."

"The solution has a great debugging feature.""The solution has a nice environment and extensions that make it easy to develop software.""Good syntax highlighting and very it's very customizable.""The recent AI-powered code completion is pretty cool.""The best feature of PyCharm is that it gives you hints whenever it detects any issues while you are coding. This is important because it helps us code faster and without any errors.""The integrated code structure makes coding more organized and manageable compared to using Python alone.""The product's IDE feature is quite user-friendly.""It is an excellent, fully integrated IDE with smart code analysis capability and a built-in debugger. It is a fantastic tool."

Cons
"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.""Micro-services need to be included in the next release.""It is an expensive solution.""You can't use it in the continuous delivery pipeline because the scanning takes too much time.""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.""The plugins for the development environment have room for improvements such as for Android Studio and X code.""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.""Checkmarx has a slightly difficult compilation with the CI/CD pipeline."

More Checkmarx One Cons →

"The navigation can be better.""There is room for improvement in memory usage. It uses too much memory. It can get a bit heavy, especially when you have too many open files and the system becomes very slow.""Notebooks in PyCharm is not as intuitive as it could be.""They should improve the product's interactiveness.""There should be support for the RUST plugin in the Community edition for debugging.""The user interface and overall user experience could be more intuitive to make it easier for users to navigate and utilize the software effectively.""PyCharm's use of system resources can get pretty heavy. Loading, in particular, takes longer than I would like and I think they should optimize it so that it's a bit lighter on the system.""The solution does not support some features of OpenCV even though it is part of a PyCharm package."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It is the right price for quality delivery."
  • "I believe pricing is better compared to other commercial tools."
  • "The pricing was not very good. This is just a framework which shouldn’t cost so much."
  • "The pricing is competitive and provides a lower TCO (total cost of ownership) for achieving application security."
  • "It is a good product but a little overpriced."
  • "The license has a vague language around P1 issues and the associated support. Make sure to review these in order to align them with your organizational policies."
  • "​Checkmarx is not a cheap scanning tool, but none of the security tools are cheap. Checkmarx is a powerful scanning tool, and it’s essential to have one of these products."
  • "We got a special offer for a 30% reduction for three years, after our first year. I think for a real source-code scanning tool, you have to add a lot of money for Open Source Analysis, and AppSec Coach (160 Euro per user per year)."
  • More Checkmarx One Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "They have a free Community edition, and they also have a licensed version. They definitely have an annual license. They probably also have a monthly license. Its pricing is good and reasonable. It is a little bit more expensive than the others, but it is well worth it. I would rate it a four out of five in terms of pricing."
  • "The community edition is free and the professional edition has a licensing fee."
  • "I don't have much info on the pricing, but I would say it is somewhat competitive."
  • "The community edition is free, which is good."
  • "The price is reasonable."
