Find out what your peers are saying about Sonar, Veracode, Checkmarx and others in Application Security Tools."Technical support is quite good."
"It's integrated into our CI, continuous integration."
"One can increase the number of vendors, so the solution is scalable."
"The ability to create custom checkers is a plus."
"Klocwork's most valuable feature is the static code analysis feature. It detects the potential problem earlier to allow the developer to receive feedback quickly and then address it before it becomes a problem."
"The most valuable feature of Klocwork is finding defects while you're doing the coding. For example, if you have an IDE plug-in of Klocwork on Visual Studio or Eclipse, you can find the faults; similar to using spell check on Word, you can find out defects during the development phase, which means that you don't have to wait till the development is over to find the flaws and address the deficiencies. I also find language support in Klocwork good because it used to support only C, C++, C#, and Java, but now, it also supports Java scripts and Python."
"The tool helps the team to think beforehand about corner cases or potential bugs that might arise in real-time."
"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."
"We use the solution for Zero-day protection."
"Klocwork has to improve its features to stay ahead of other free solutions."
"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."
"We bought Klocwork, but it was limited to one little program, but the program is now sort of failing. So, we have a license for usage on a program that is sort of failing, and we really can't use the license on anything else."
"Every update that we receive requires of us a lengthy and involved process."
"I believe it should support more languages, such as Python and JavaScript."
"Klocwork does have a problem with true positives. It only found 30% of true positives in the Juliet test case."
"This solution could be improved if they offered support of more languages including Ada and Golang. They currently only support seven languages."
"I hope that in each new release they add new features relating to the addition of checkers, improving their analysis engines etc."
"The tool's dashboard needs to load since it is not responsive and takes time to load."
