"The most valuable feature of Coverity is the wrapper. We use the wrapper to build the C++ component, then we use the other code analysis to analyze the code to the build object, and then send back the result to the SonarQube server. Additionally, it is a powerful capabilities solution."
"Provides software security, and helps to find potential security bugs or defects."
"The security analysis features are the most valuable features of this solution."
"The solution's instant reports feature is the most effective for detecting threats."
