Featured Reviews

Sathyamurthi Natarajan - PeerSpot reviewer
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

"When it comes to security, this solution is pretty great."
"SonarQube is good in terms of code review and to report on basic vulnerabilities in your applications."
"SonarQube lets us find security issues during development and testing so that we can release more secure and higher quality applications."
"Offers multi-programming language support"
"Overall, it's going really well."
"I'm not implementing the solutions. However, I've talked to the people who deploy the tools, and they are happy with how easy setting up SonarCloud is."
"I like the by-default policies that are they, as they seem to cover most of what I need."
"Code Convention: Using the tool to implement some sort of coding convention is really useful and ensures that the code is consistent no matter how many contributors."
"The most valuable feature of Trend Micro Cloud App Security is its stability across all platforms."
"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."
"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."
"This is a very dependable solution and we are able to have a lot of Trend Micro security products integrated between each other."
"The solution is easy to integrate."
"Trend Micro has DLP features in it, which separates it from other solutions."
"It has more intelligence features than other vendors."
"Dependable with ease of integration with other security products."
 

Cons

"We called support and complained but have not received any information as we use the free version. We had to fix it on our own and could not escalate it to the tool's developer."
"Having performance regression would be a helpful add on or ability to be able to do during the scan."
"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 found a solution with dynamic testing, and are looking to find a solution that can be used for both types of testing."
"Lacks sufficient visibility and documentation."
"I would like to see SonarQube implement a good amount of improvements to the product's security features. Another aspect of SonarQube that could be improved is the search functionality."
"I don't believe you can have metrics of code quality based upon code analysis. I don't think it's possible for a computer to do it."
"SonarQube can improve by scanning the internal library which currently it does not do. We are looking for a solution for this."
"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."
"The cost of the license is on the high side."
"They should provide separate corporate-level licenses for two to three instances."
"The pricing of this solution is quite high, about double what other similar solutions cost."
"It would be great if Trend Mail Cloud App Security would be joined with a web security solution, making it a multiple-network solution."
"Documentation could be improved; product cost is quite high."
"In the next release, I would like to see the cost go down."
"There is room for improvement in the DLP component of Trend Micro Cloud App Security."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"SonarQube is a cost-effective solution."
"My guess is that we have a yearly subscription. We use it quite extensively, so a monthly license wouldn't make sense. Yearly subscriptions are usually cheaper. In addition to the standard licensing fee, there is just the cost of running the hardware where it is hosted."
"I was using the Community Edition, which is available free of charge."
"The price of the solution could be reduced."
"I use the full trial version of SonarQube."
"We are using the open-source community version, but there are enterprise licenses available."
"There is both a free and licensed version. The free version has limitations on development languages and support."
"The beauty of this solution is the free open-source version is capable enough in doing pretty much what an enterprise-level version can do."
"The pricing of the solution could be better."
"The solution's price is mid-ranged."
"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."
"The product's pricing is reasonable compared to other vendors."
"The cost of the license is on the high side. It's a yearly subscription."
