Find out what your peers are saying about Sonar, Veracode, Checkmarx and others in Application Security Testing (AST)."The app analysis is the most valuable feature as I know other solutions don't have that."
"Coverity is scalable."
"The interface of Coverity is quite good, and it is also easy to use."
"It provides reports about a lot of potential defects."
"It's pretty stable. I rate the stability of Coverity nine out of ten."
"The most valuable feature is that there were not a whole lot of false positives, at least on the codebases that I looked at."
"It's very stable."
"The security analysis features are the most valuable features of this solution."
"The Explore function is valuable for finding specific things I'm looking for."
"One thing I really like about it is the fact that we can add search words or specific payloads inside the tool, and GitGuardian will look into GitHub and alert us if any of these words is found in a repository... With this capability in the tool, we have good surveillance over our potential blind spots."
"We'd like it to be faster."
"Sometimes it's a bit hard to figure out how to use the product’s UI."
"The setup takes very long."
"I would like to see integration with popular IDEs, such as Eclipse."
"We use GitHub and Gitflow, and Coverity does not fit with Gitflow. I have to create a screen for our branches, and it's a pain for developers. It has been difficult to integrate Coverity with our system."
"The product could be enhanced by providing video troubleshooting guides, making issue resolution more accessible. Troubleshooting without visual guides can be time-consuming."
"There should be additional IDE support."
"The solution could use more rules."
"I would like to see improvement in some of the user interface features... When one secret is leaked in multiple files or multiple repositories, it will appear on the dashboard. But when you click on that secret, all the occurrences will appear on the page. It would be better to have one secret per occurrence, directly, so that we don't have to click to get to the list of all the occurrences."
"I'm excited about the possibility of Public Postman scanning being integrated with GitGuardian in the future. Additionally, I'm interested in exploring the potential use of honeytokens, which seems like a compelling approach to lure and identify attackers."
