Find out in this report how the two Container Security solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature is that I can establish different services from the firewall."
"It is a stable solution."
"It is a very good tool for load balancing."
"NGINX App Protect is stable."
"The most valuable feature of NGINX App Protect is the reverse proxy."
"The most valuable feature of NGINX App Protect is its flexibility."
"It has the best documentation features."
"It's very easy to deploy."
"It provides security of different Shadow IT activities in our environment, especially around application development and website hosting."
"When we expanded our definition of critical systems to include an internal application to be scanned by Veracode, we had initial scans that produced hundreds of vulnerabilities. We expected this, based on how the code was treated previously, but the Veracode platform allowed us to streamline our identification of these items and develop a game plan to quickly address them."
"The capability to identify vulnerable code is the most valuable feature of Veracode."
"Static Scanning is the most valuable feature of Veracode."
"I don't have to have a team of developers behind me that keep up with all the latest threats because the subscription service they provide for me does that."
"There have been a lot of benefits gained from Veracode. Compared to other tools, Veracode has good flexibility with an easy way to run a scan. We get in-depth details on how to fix things and go through the process. They provide good process documents, community, and consultation for any issues that occur during the use of Veracode."
"Regarding Software Composition Analysis, an exceptional feature is that during a SAST scan, SCA is seamlessly conducted in the background."
"The source composition analysis component is great because it gives our developers some comfort in using new libraries."
"Its technical support could be better."
"I encountered issues with NGINX App Protect while trying to upgrade custom rules."
"Right now, the tool doesn't provide an option revolving around update feeds, specifically the signature update option in the UI."
"The integration of NGINX App Protect could improve."
"Currently, the policies have to be handled manually, and you have to create from scratch, which can be a bit time-consuming, in a large environment."
"As far as scalability, it takes a long time for deployment."
"NGINX App Protect could improve security."
"The price of NGINX App Protect could improve."
"Veracode's ease of use could be improved. I would also like to see more online videos and tutorials that could help us understand the product better. It would also be helpful if Veracode created a certification program for DevSecOps staff to learn about their product and get certified. This kind of training would raise the company's profile within the industry."
"I would ask Veracode to be a lot more engaged with the customer and set up live sessions where they force the customer to engage with Veracode's technical team. Veracode could show them a repo, how they should do things, this is what these results mean, here is a dashboard, here's the interpretation, here's where you find the results."
"Veracode would benefit greatly from more training resources. The videos are great, but I would like more hands-on training writing a script, validating a script with a unit test in a different language, etc. That's something that would be very valuable."
"There should be more control for administrative users so that we can add and delete any functionality or module within the platform. We should not have to reach out to Veracode's customer support every time. We should be able to customize our modules."
"There is much to be desired of UI and user experience. The UI is very slow. With every click, it just takes a lot of time for the pages to load. We have seen this consistently since getting this solution. The UI and UX are very disjointed."
"The scanning could be improved, because some scans take a bit of time."
"Some important languages are not supported."
"The scanning on the UI portion of our applications is straightforward, but folks were having challenges with scans that involved microservices. They had to rope in an expert to have it sorted."
