Useful for risk assessment and has customization capability
The tool helps us with security incidents, policies, business continuity, disaster recovery, and internal audits. The feature I like the most is its customization capability. It acts like a blank canvas where you can construct forms and workflows according to your needs. You can configure and customize a lot yourself, whether starting from scratch or using some out-of-the-box options. The solution has impacted our operations by helping us manage and prioritize environmental risks. It also assists in establishing ownership of risks and enables us to mitigate or mediate existing risks. Additionally, it facilitates tracking risks throughout their entire lifecycle.

Supports secure development pipelines and improves issue detection but limits internal visibility and needs broader dashboard integration
If you have an internal team and you want your internal team to validate false positives, basically to determine whether it's a valid issue or an invalid issue, then I wouldn't recommend it much. That was the only reason we migrated from Fortify on Demand to another solution. Fortify has another tool which is Fortify WebInspect. On Demand is the outsourcing solution, and WebInspect you can use with your in-house team, which is basically the product developed by the Fortify team. For automated scanning, Fortify helps a lot. Regarding the visibility for the internal team, everyone is moving toward the DevSecOps side, and Fortify team has made good progress that you can integrate into your CICD pipeline. One thing I would highlight is if Fortify can focus more on the centralized dashboard of the tools because nowadays, tools such as SentinelOne also exist for identifying security issues, but they have a centralized dashboard that merges their cloud solution and application security side solution together. If you have one tool that works for different solutions, it helps a lot. They are doing good, but they should invest more on the AI side as well because AI security is evolving these days. On the cloud side, they have already made good progress, but I believe they should explore the new area related to AI security as well.

Pros

"The tool helps us with security incidents, policies, business continuity, disaster recovery, and internal audits. The feature I like the most is its customization capability. It acts like a blank canvas where you can construct forms and workflows according to your needs. You can configure and customize a lot yourself, whether starting from scratch or using some out-of-the-box options."
"It improves future security scans."
"The SAST feature is the most valuable."
"The solution is user-friendly."
"Each bank may have its own core banking applications with proprietary support for different programming languages. This makes Fortify particularly relevant and advantageous in those cases."
"It is valuable in improving our overall security posture by catching significant errors."
"One of the top features is the source code review for vulnerabilities. When we look at source code, it's hard to see where areas may be weak in terms of security, and Fortify on Demand's source code review helps with that."
"The best features with Fortify on Demand include having analysis for any product based on analysis points."
"Fortify on Demand is easy to use and the reporting is good."
 

Cons

"We think there's room for improvement, especially with customizing NAVEX One. Their development on the roadmap can be slow."
"With Rapid7 I utilized its reporting capabilities to deliver Client Reports within just a few minutes of checking the data. I believe that HP’s FoD Clients could sell more services to clients if HP put more effort into delivering visually pleasing reporting capabilities."
"The thing that could be improved is reducing the cost of usage and including some of the most pricey features, such as dynamic analysis and that sort of functionality, which makes the difference between different types of tools."
"We would like a reduction in the time frame of scans. It takes us three to five days to run a scan now. We would like that reduced to under three days."
"The UI could be better. Fortify should also suggest new packages in the product that can be upgraded. Currently, it shows that, but it's not visible enough. In future versions, I would like more insights about the types of vulnerabilities and the pages associated with the exact CVE."
".NET code scanning is still dependent on building the code base before running any scan. Also, it's dependent on an IDE such as Visual Studio."
"There are many false positives identified by the solution."
"There's a bit of a learning curve. Our development team is struggling with following the rules and following the new processes."
"They could provide features for artificial intelligence similar to other vendors."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"NAVEX One's pricing comes in the middle range when compared to other products."
"We are still using the trial version at this point but I can already see from the trial version alone that it is a good product. For others, I would say that Fortify on Demand might look expensive at the beginning, but it is very powerful and so you shouldn't be put off by the price."
"The product's cost depends on the type of license."
"Despite being on the higher end in terms of cost, the biggest value lies in its abilities, including robust features, seamless integration, and high-quality findings."
"Fortify on Demand is affordable, and its licensing comes with a year of support."
"I'd rate it an eight out of ten in terms of pricing."
"The pricing can be improved because it is complex when compared to the competition."
"Fortify on Demand is moderately priced, but its pricing could be more flexible."
"Fortify on Demand is more expensive than Burpsuite. I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
