Protection has secured our mobile algorithms and now testing guidelines need improvement
The best features DoveRunner Mobile Application Security offers include its simple integration, which is basically a pipeline, making it a plug-and-play type of approach that automatically takes care of all the heavy work. Regarding how the automatic protection works, I appreciate the simplicity of this particular SDK, as I just need to integrate it using Xcode directly and use CocoaPods to install it in applications, which simplifies the security layers along with all the signing and submission of the application to the App Store. DoveRunner Mobile Application Security has positively impacted my organization so far by alleviating a constant fear that our proprietary algorithms or shaders might be leaked, which could affect our application's revenue, and we are optimistic about achieving secure integration after launching in production.

Improves security posture by actively reducing critical vulnerabilities and guiding remediation
Snyk's main features include open-source vulnerability scanning, code security, container security, infrastructure as code security, risk-based prioritization, development-first integration, continuous monitoring and alerting, automation, and remediation. The best features I appreciate are the vulnerability checking, vulnerability scanning, and code security capabilities, as Snyk scans all open-source dependencies for known vulnerabilities and helps with license compliance for open-source components. Snyk integrates into IDEs, allowing issues to be caught as they appear in the code dynamically and prioritizes risk while providing remediation advice. Snyk provides actionable remediation advice on where vulnerabilities can exist and where code security is compromised, automatically scanning everything and providing timely alerts. Snyk has positively impacted my organization by improving the security posture across all software repositories, resulting in fewer critical vulnerabilities, more confidence in overall product security, and faster security compliance for project clients. Snyk has helped reduce vulnerabilities significantly. Initially, the repository had 17 to 31 critical and high vulnerabilities, but Snyk has helped manage them down to just five vulnerabilities, which are now lower and not high or critical.

Pros

"DoveRunner Mobile Application Security has positively impacted my organization so far by alleviating a constant fear that our proprietary algorithms or shaders might be leaked, which could affect our application's revenue, and we are optimistic about achieving secure integration after launching in production."
"After exploring DoveRunner Mobile Application Security, I can say that you are getting everything on a single platform."
"The most valuable feature of Snyk is the SBOM."
"The solution's Open Source feature gives us notifications and suggestions regarding how to address vulnerabilities."
"We went from 15 vulnerabilities in it to four or five, and those four or five were un-upgradable and we were not affected by them."
"It is easy for developers to use. The documentation is clear as well as the APIs are good and easily readable. It's a good solution overall."
"The most effective feature in securing project dependencies stems from its ability to highlight security vulnerabilities."
"Static code analysis is one of the best features of the solution."
"The most prominent reason why everybody goes with Snyk as a starting point is because they have an open source offering, and as such, it is a developer-friendly solution that our developers really like, deliberately made to be developer-friendly from the start with lots of integrations that fit with other tools."
"Snyk has given us really good results because it is fully automated."
 

Cons

"I think improved guidelines could be added regarding testing on the security aspect."
"As I am in the exploration phase of DoveRunner Mobile Application Security, I chose a rating of eight."
"The reporting mechanism of Snyk could improve. The reporting mechanism is available only on the higher level of license."
"The product is very expensive."
"There are some new features that we would like to see added, e.g., more visibility into library usage for the code. Something along the lines where it's doing the identification of where vulnerabilities are used, etc. This would cause them to stand out in the market as a much different platform."
"Then there's the issue of their support. It's not very good, to be honest, and it hasn't been the best experience to deal with them."
"The log export function could be easier when shipping logs to other platforms such as Splunk."
"I use Snyk alongside Sonar, and Snyk tends to generate a lot of false positives. Improving the overall report quality and reducing false positives would be beneficial. I don't need additional features; just improving the existing ones would be enough."
"The reporting mechanism of Snyk could improve. The reporting mechanism is available only on the higher level of license. Adjusting the policy of the current setup of recording this report is something that can improve. For instance, if you have a certain license, you receive a rating, and the rating of this license remains the same for any use case. No matter if you are using it internally or using it externally, you cannot make the adjustment to your use case. It will always alert as a risky license. The areas of licenses in the reporting and adjustments can be improve"
"Right now, we receive too many high vulnerabilities. If we enable notifications, then we just get a lot of spam message."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"I would rate the pricing of Snyk at two. I'm currently using the free version, which the company offers before buying the full version. So, the price is affordable, especially for an enterprise."
"Snyk is an expensive solution."
"We do have some missing licenses issues, especially with non-SPDX compliant one, but we expect this to be fixed soon"
"Compared to Veracode, Snyk is definitely a cheaper tool."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing a three. It is a cheap solution."
"We are using the open-source version for the scans."
"Their licensing model is fairly robust and scalable for our needs. I believe we have reached a reasonable agreement on the licensing to enable hundreds of developers to participate in this product offering. The solution is very tailored towards developers and its licensing model works well for us."
"For what Snyk offers, it has the best cost-benefit I have ever seen because you're buying the license per user."
