Harness vs Klocwork comparison

"Harness integrates all functions like execution pipelines, environment checks, and log monitoring in one place."

"The features of Harness are valuable, supporting rolling deployments, basic deployments, and blue-green deployments with zero downtime."

"Harness starts integrating with organizations, making everything automated without the need for manual interruption."

"Harness integrates all functions like execution pipelines, environment checks, and log monitoring in one place, making it convenient."

"It's a highly customizable DevOps tool."

"There is a central Klocwork server at our headquarter in France so we connect the client directly to the server on-premises remotely."

"The most valuable feature of Klocwork is its reduced setup time."

"Technical support is quite good."

"The customer support team is very responsive, proactive, and engages in conversations to ensure our needs are met."

"The most valuable feature of Klocwork is its reduced setup time."

"The ability to create custom checkers is a plus."

"I like not having to dig through false positives. Chasing down a false positive can take anywhere from five minutes for a small easy one, then something that is complicated and goes through a whole bunch of different class cases, and it can take up to 45 minutes to an hour to find out if it is a false positive or not."

"The reporting helps us understand the trend of our results and whether we improve over time. We can see the history within Klocwork's server architecture and know that we're making things better. It creates a great story for our management. We can demonstrate value and how our software is developing over time."

"I prefer the previous less compact UI version of Harness, which showed more details on the screen."

"When integrating Harness with more than twenty applications in one place, it becomes less stable, causing improvements to be necessary."

"When deploying multiple components to multiple environments, like production and BCP, failures sometimes occur. Improvements are needed when deploying one component to one environment."

"There's also room for improvement in debugging pipeline issues, which can sometimes become complex."

"Even with automation, there's a requirement for manual change requests for approvals."

"Klocwork sometimes provides too many additional warnings which require expertise to manage."

"Now the only issue we have is that whenever we need to get the code we have to build it first. Then we can get the report."

"I would like to see better codes between projects and a more user-friendly desktop in the next release."

"Klocwork does have a problem with true positives. It only found 30% of true positives in the Juliet test case."

"Every update that we receive requires of us a lengthy and involved process."

"Klocwork sometimes provides too many additional warnings which require expertise to manage."

"The way to define the rules is too complex. The definition/rules for static analysis could be automated according to various SILs, so as to avoid confusion."

"Klocwork has to improve its features to stay ahead of other free solutions."

"Licensing fees are paid annually, but they also have a perpetual license."

"This solution offers competitive pricing."

"Klocwork should not to be quite so heavy handed on the licensing for very specific programs."

"When it comes to licensing, the solution has two packages, one for a fixed and the other for a floating server, with the former being more cost effective than the latter."

"There are other solutions on the market such as Microsoft Visual Studio. They have been adding more static code analysis features that come for free. It is getting better all the time. That is one of the possibilities is that we've been considering that we may stop using the Klocwork because it doesn't give us any added value."

"The limitation that we have is that Klocwork is licensed to certain programs, and if you want to license them to other programs, you have to pay more money."

"Klocwork is still tight on their licensing. If Klocwork would loosen up on the licensing, and where the license could be used, and how many different programs could be run on it, then we have several development programs that I would love to be able to use it for going forward."

"The pricing for Klocwork is very competitive if you compare it from apple to apple. It has competitive pricing regarding the licensing model and the per-license cost. Klocwork isn't a high-end investment for anyone deploying it; even SMBs can afford it. The Klocwork cost per user would depend on the license type, so I'm unable to mention a ballpark figure because it would depend on the type of installation and how the deployment will be, and the nodes to give an accurate calculation or figure. The total price depends on the package, so my company could never publish pricing for Klocwork on the website. My team first collects information from potential clients on the deployment scenario, project environment, etc., before suggesting a package for Klocwork. My rating for Klocwork in terms of pricing is a five because of its flexible license models. There's a license model for every type of organization, whether small, midsize, or enterprise, so it's a five out of five for me."
