IT Officer (Solution Architect) at World Bank
We maintain high code standards with effective static code analysis and integration
SonarQube Server (formerly SonarQube) could be improved on the reporting front. Instead of grouping, I would prefer to scan the code as part of development and then generate a report on a daily basis among different units or projects, which is currently complicated. We need to change it to more of a portfolio report, where configuring or setting up things on the portfolio requires tagging at the ADO level.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"SonarQube is a fantastic tool which saves us precious time."
"SonarQube does SAST and SCAs pretty well."
"SonarQube Cloud (formerly SonarCloud) has had a positive impact on my organization by giving the best impact for code checking and code structuring, making the code more usable and better."
"We previously used Codacy, but we switched to SonarCloud because of their good reputation and we compared reports from both of them and SonarCloud seems to be more accurate."
"It easily ties into our continuous integration pipeline."
"The reports from SonarCloud are very good."
"The initial setup is simple. It requires some security, but it's simple."
"I find SonarQube Cloud very easy to use and simple to integrate initially."
"Trend Micro has DLP features in it, which separates it from other solutions."
"I find Trend Micro Cloud App Security useful for scanning our email boxes. We can scan them one by one, which is a good feature. It's not just gateway-level protection - we integrate the email system with it. They have special protection and parameters for phishing emails."
"This is a very dependable solution and we are able to have a lot of Trend Micro security products integrated between each other."
"Our business emails are very important and Trend Micro Cloud App Security has provided a high level of protection. Additionally, there are updating the solution frequently."
"The most valuable feature of Trend Micro Cloud App Security is its stability across all platforms."
"Dependable with ease of integration with other security products."
"The solution is easy to integrate."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
 

Cons

"The security in SonarQube could be better."
"SonarQube is not development-centric like Snyk."
"SonarQube could be improved with more dynamic testing—basically, now, it's a static code analysis scan."
"The only thing I don't like is that they removed the design libraries and dependencies-checking features from v5.2."
"The product provides false reports sometimes."
"A robust credential scanner would be a huge bonus as it would remove the need for yet another niche product with additional cost, also gives the benefit of a single pane of glass view, although we still need WhiteSource Bolt for third-party library scanning."
"The pricing could be reduced a bit. It's a little expensive."
"SonarQube could improve its static application security testing as per the industry standard."
"There is room for improvement in the DLP component of Trend Micro Cloud App Security."
"They should provide separate corporate-level licenses for two to three instances."
"The solution's technical support services could be better."
"For improvements, I think it would be great if Trend Micro Cloud App Security could enhance their product to be a single SASE solution. It should be similar to competitors like Palo Alto."
"In the next release, I would like to see the cost go down."
"It would be great if Trend Mail Cloud App Security would be joined with a web security solution, making it a multiple-network solution."
"The pricing of this solution is quite high, about double what other similar solutions cost."
"The price of the solution could improve by being lower."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution has a free version and a license version. The license is priced reasonably, the cost of hiring one programmer is more expensive than the solution."
"The price of the solution could be reduced."
"We are using the community version of the solution and we plan on purchasing licenses for the upgraded version soon. There is a limitation on how many lines of code can be scanned and this is why we are going to purchase a license for an increased amount."
"People can try the free licenses and later can seek buying plugins/support, etc. once they started liking it."
"SonarQube enterprise, I am not sure of the price but from what I understand they are charging a fee. It's is not clear if it is an annual fee or a one-off."
"I am satisfied with the pricing."
"We're using their free Community Edition version."
"I rate the pricing a five out of ten."
"The pricing of the solution could be better."
"The solution's price is mid-ranged."
"The cost of the license is on the high side. It's a yearly subscription."
"The product's pricing is reasonable compared to other vendors."
"The price of Trend Micro Cloud App Security is expensive for regular users. There are not any hidden fees. First-time users of the solution should purchase implementation packages or professional services."
