"We are using this solution to increase the quality of our software and to test the vulnerabilities in our tools before the customers find them.""The solution offers very good technical support.""The solution has a continuous integration process.""​We use Kiuwan to locate the source of application vulnerabilities.""I like that it provides a detailed report that lets you know the risk index and the vulnerability.""I have found the security and QA in the source code to be most valuable.""Lifecycle features, because they permit us to show non-technical people the risk and costs hidden into the code due to bad programming practices.""The most valuable feature is the time to resolution, where it tells you how long it is going to take to get to a zero-base or a five-star security rating."

Cons
"This solution is difficult to implement, and it should be made more comfortable for the end-users.""We are having issues with false positives that need to be resolved.""Fortify Software Security Center's setup is really painful."

More Fortify Software Security Center Cons →

"It could improve its scalability abilities.""It would be beneficial to streamline calls and transitions seamlessly for improved functionality.""I would like to see additional languages supported.""The QA developer and security could be improved.""Perhaps more languages supported.""The configuration hasn't been that good.""Kiuwan's support has room for improvement. You can only open a ticket is through email, and the support team is outside of our country. They should have a support number or chat.""The integration process could be improved. It'll also help if it could generate reports automatically. But I'm not sure about the effectiveness of the reports. This is because, in our last project, we still found some key issues that weren't captured by the Kiuwan report."
