Author infoRatingReview Summary
Software Engineer at a computer software company with 11-50 employees4.5I find Snyk excellent for vulnerability scanning, significantly improving my organization's security posture and reducing critical vulnerabilities. Its setup is easy, and it saves costs. However, it sometimes flags irrelevant issues, which could be improved.
Senior Software Engineering Manager at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees5.0As a Snyk customer, I find it critical. It effectively finds vulnerabilities with suggested fixes, paramount for blocking issues pre-production, and integrates with our AI for automated fixes. I rate Snyk 10/10.
Information Security Strategy at a insurance company with 10,001+ employees4.0I appreciate Snyk's seamless Jira, IDE, and repository integrations, finding setup easy and pricing fair. I want better scanning for more languages and improved AI features for GenAI findings. Overall, it's a highly seamless and affordable option.
Senior DevSecOps at V84.0I appreciate Snyk's shift-left insights and simpler licensing, which improved our maturity. Although its vulnerability detection is slightly less precise than Checkmarx or Veracode, I find it valuable overall and rate it 8.5/10.
CEO at a computer software company with 10,001+ employees3.0As a security leader, I find Snyk a cost-effective, scalable solution for our large organization, integrating with GitHub and CI/CD. Despite limitations with Gradle/NPM and Web UI branch selection, its affordability and ease of consolidation are optimal.
Director at Marsh4.0I use Snyk in my DevOps pipeline to identify vulnerabilities before deployment, appreciating its detailed security insights and shift-left advantage. However, it presents numerous false positives, requiring manual separation.
Tech Lead DevSecOps at Letsbank4.0I rely on Snyk for SAST scanning across many repositories, integrating it into our pipeline to enforce security. Its stability, scalability, and customer support are excellent, and it offers strong ROI, but I wish its plugins were easier to optimize and integrate.
Head for Application Security at Hexaware Technologies Limited4.0I found Snyk performs well for SCA, comparable to expensive tools, with excellent stability and support. However, I believe its reporting traceability and storage features need significant improvement, and it could offer more proactive developer training.
