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

"After exploring DoveRunner Mobile Application Security, I can say that you are getting everything on a single platform."
"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."
"Snyk categorizes the level of vulnerability into high, medium, and low, which helps organizations prioritize which issues to tackle first."
"Our customers find container scans most valuable. They are always talking about it."
"Our overall security has improved, we are running fewer severities and vulnerabilities in our packages, and we fixed a lot of the vulnerabilities that we didn't know were there."
"We're loving some of the Kubernetes integration as well. That's really quite cool. It's still in the early days of our use of it, but it looks really exciting. In the Kubernetes world, it's very good at reporting on the areas around the configuration of your platform, rather than the things that you've pulled in. There's some good advice there that allows you to prioritize whether something is important or just worrying. That's very helpful."
"Static code analysis is one of the best features of the solution."
"It has improved our vulnerability rating and reduced our vulnerabilities through the tool during the time that we've had it. It's definitely made us more aware, as we have removed scoping for existing vulnerabilities and platforms since we rolled it out up until now."
"Snyk allows developers and development managers to identify open-source vulnerabilities in every stage, and as a result the fix is much cheaper than identifying something in production, being up to 100 times less expensive and enabling a few early bug fixes to cover all the license fees for the annual subscription of Snyk."
"The fact that it provides visibility, compliance-related visibility, that is not readily available by cloud suppliers themselves, is its most valuable aspect."
 

Cons

"As I am in the exploration phase of DoveRunner Mobile Application Security, I chose a rating of eight."
"I think improved guidelines could be added regarding testing on the security aspect."
"We've also had technical issues with blocking newly introduced vulnerabilities in PRs and that was creating a lot of extra work for developers in trying to close and reopen the PR to get rid of some areas. We ended up having to disable that feature altogether because it wasn't really working for us and it was actually slowing down developer velocity."
"Snyk's API and UI features could work better in terms of speed."
"The solution's integration with JFrog Artifactory could be improved."
"For the areas that they're new in, it's very early stages for them. For example, their expertise is in looking at third-party components and packages, which is their bread-and-butter and what they've been doing for ages, but for newer features such as static analysis I don't think they've got compatibility for all the languages and frameworks yet."
"It would be great if they can include dynamic, interactive, and run-time scanning features."
"Offering API access in the lower or free open-source tiers would be better. That would help our customers. If you don't have an enterprise plan, it becomes challenging to integrate with the rest of the systems. Our customers would like to have some open-source integrations in the next release."
"All such tools should definitely improve the signatures in their database. Snyk is pretty new to the industry."
"The reporting mechanism of Snyk could improve. The reporting mechanism is available only on the higher level of license."
 

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."
"You can get a good deal with Snyk for pricing. It's a little expensive, but it is worth it."
"It's good value. That's the primary thing. It's not cheap-cheap, but it's good value."
"The pricing is acceptable, especially for enterprises. I don't think it's too much of a concern for our customers. Something like $99 per user is reasonable when the stakes are high."
"The solution is less expensive than Black Duck."
"With Snyk, you get what you pay for. It is not a cheap solution, but you get a comprehensiveness and level of coverage that is very good. The dollars in the security budget only go so far. If I can maximize my value and be able to have some funds left over for other initiatives, I want to do that. That is what drives me to continue to say, "What's out there in the market? Snyk's expensive, but it's good. Is there something as good, but more affordable?" Ultimately, I find we could go cheaper, but we would lose the completeness of vision or scope. I am not willing to do that because Snyk does provide a pretty important benefit for us."
"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."
"Compared to Veracode, Snyk is definitely a cheaper tool."
