Veracode Reviews

We use Veracode for its code analysis features, which include static code analysis, dynamic code analysis, and checking for security flaws in our code. Mainly, we utilize Veracode for application security, making code security one of our primary use cases.

Since implementing Veracode, we have seen significant improvements in our code's security and the overall code development process. Veracode has been instrumental in enhancing our code security and streamlining the development workflow. In the past, we relied heavily on third-party applications that were not directly aligned with our codebase. However, now we can seamlessly integrate Veracode into our application process, saving a substantial amount of time. Veracode has not only improved our security setup but also enhanced the overall security of our organization.

Before implementing Veracode, the same process that used to take one hour now only takes 15 to 20 minutes.

Veracode's policy reporting for insurance compliance with industry standards and regulations is good. We can integrate numerous reports, and the positive reporting feature is also highly commendable.

Veracode provides visibility into the application's status at every phase of development.

Veracode works very well overall, and our security has been greatly improved, significantly impacting our ability to fix flaws.

The security process has been improved. Before using Veracode, we used to perform it manually. However, at that time, there was no application that could be integrated with the code. Now, with Veracode, we can directly integrate it with our code. As a result, security checks are being done automatically, saving us 30 to 40 percent of our time.

Veracode offers various security features. Veracode performs the analysis using three different methods: static analysis, dynamic analysis, and software composition analysis. These security features are the best, and the most valuable features.

Veracode's ability to prevent vulnerable code from going into production is commendable. However, we have encountered numerous cases of false positives that need improvement.

The technical support service has room for improvement. There are times when we rely on them, but we are not receiving an adequate response.

The stability has room for improvement.

I have been using Veracode for one and a half years.

Veracode is stable, but there is room for improvement.

Veracode is highly scalable. We have not had any issues with scalability. 

Before I joined my organization, they used a third-party application to check code. Since I joined, we have been using Veracode.

The initial setup was somewhat complex. The deployment took a couple of weeks because we needed to resolve numerous technical issues that we had to understand first. We had six people involved in the deployment.

Veracode's price is reasonable.

I would rate Veracode an eight out of ten. I recommend Veracode to others.

Veracode's false positives significantly impact our developers. When we encounter numerous false positive cases, we are required to conduct extensive reviews. How much it affects our developers depends on the number of false positive cases we are encountering and the significance of addressing them concerning the criticality of writing the code.

Veracode can save time in our DevSecOps process, but it may not significantly reduce costs.

Organizations that have security flaws in their code and seek to enhance their core security can consider Veracode as one of the best options for investment. Veracode is easy to implement and can effectively address the flaws in the code, provided that cost is not a significant concern.

Maintenance is required from time to time, specifically regarding false positives. We need to verify whether the system is functioning properly and communicate with the support team. The intervals for these checks occur after approximately 30 or 60 days, which we have selected, and we must strive to improve the system during these instances.

Veracode is deployed at two locations within our organization.

We have multiple verticals and products, and we use Veracode to perform static analysis on our hosted applications across all the platforms. We also perform static and software composition analysis on a couple of products.

Our offices are spread out across North America, South America, Europe, and Cyprus. We also have offices in Australia that use the solution. About 25 to 30 people use the solution regularly. 

Veracode has greatly improved the security posture of our applications because we can identify and mitigate vulnerabilities that we couldn't have without the solution. Veracode provides compliance reporting so we can identify issues without having to rely on complaints. Veracode has been extremely effective at fixing flaws in our applications. We have multiple applications across multiple verticals

Veracode or any other solution like it doesn't prevent anything. The product provides insight into the vulnerabilities, but it's up to the end-user to mitigate that and move it into production. If we fail to remedy the issue and move the code into production, it isn't Veracode's failure. We can't judge the product based on whether it could do that. The product is doing what it should be doing.

In addition to dynamic and static analysis, we can perform software composition analysis, which involves going into the various libraries to retrieve details about that. We see a few false positives in Veracode but not many. It's negligible. 

Veracode has saved our developers time by identifying and reporting flaws. The developers don't need to spend time checking the code by hand. It reduces the time spent on these tasks by about 10 to 20 percent. 

I believe the static analysis is Veracode's best and most valuable feature. Software composition analysis is a feature that most people don't use, and we don't use SCA for most of our applications. However, this is an essential feature because it provides insight into the third-party libraries we use.

We have some constraints interacting with Veracode self-support. I'm not talking about their technical support. I'm talking about self-support. We sometimes have a hard time communicating with them.

I have used Veracode for the last five or six years, but the company has used it for nearly 10. 

Veracode is a highly stable product.

I haven't had a scenario where we've had to scale it.

I rate Veracode technical support nine out of 10. They are excellent. When we have problems, they provide a solution every time. 

Positive

We had been using a third-party service for vulnerability checking. 

The deployment is a little complex. There is a small learning curve, but it isn't too difficult. The installation isn't hard, but we need to configure the dynamic analysis where it connects to a hosted application and performs checks. We have to configure the console and set a schedule. It takes a couple of hours to configure a new application.

We have been able to mitigate lots of flaws and vulnerabilities, so Veracode has had a positive effect on our products. It's hard for me to quantify. Our company has a large footprint across Asia, North America, South America, and Europe. 

Veracode is fairly priced. 

I rate Veracode eight out of 10. I would recommend Veracode to other users. However, I suggest doing a proof of concept before moving forward with any solution. 

We use Veracode for static code analysis scans for our clients.

Veracode is deployed both on the cloud and on-premises.

Veracode helps prevent vulnerable code from being deployed into production by identifying problematic code. It enables us to send a report to the application developer, allowing them to address the vulnerabilities based on their criticality level. The developers are given six months to address medium-level issues and three months for critical ones. If the criteria are not mapped with the higher critical alerts present in those applications, we can enforce the build field and proceed without deploying it into production.

Veracode has helped improve our customers' organizations through the scanning taskbar, which identifies vulnerabilities in code. We have worked with ten clients, all of whom used Veracode to identify vulnerable code early in the development stage and resolve the issues. Additionally, Veracode offers Greenlight ID, which developers can integrate into their development process, providing clarity during the development phase. Veracode can also generate reports that developers can resolve, facilitating the quick resolution of security concerns.

The policy reporting for ensuring compliance with industry standards is excellent. The report helps us maintain our compliance.

It offers visibility into the application's status at every phase of development, including static analysis, dynamic analysis, composition analysis, and manual penetration testing throughout the Software Development Life Cycle.

Visibility aids the DevSecOps process by offering a clear framework for all involved departments, including the steps for handling severities.

Veracode assists our clients in addressing flaws by simplifying the process. The security team can review the code, approve or reject it, and developers can utilize the reports to promptly rectify the flaws.

It assists developers in saving approximately 20 percent of their time, primarily in the static part, as they no longer need to review all the code. Regarding the dynamic part, Veracode scans all the URLs, eliminating the necessity for developers to use additional tools. For third-party dependencies, developers depend on the reports and the Greenlight ID plug-in to streamline their workflow and save time.

Our clients depend on Veracode to improve their security stance.  

The CI/CD integration is the most valuable feature of Veracode. This feature is not present in other solutions.

The analytics dashboard is not user-friendly and can be improved to assist us with the application size and enable modifications, whether for static or dynamic scans. This is currently missing in Veracode.

Veracode needs to improve its integration with other tools.

We have requested an enhancement for Veracode because it does not support scanning the static and dynamic elements of code created by MuleSoft. Furthermore, it does not support these aspects for the new generation of applications and we have to use other tools.

I have been using Veracode for over seven years.

If there is an issue, I am unable to access all the logs due to insufficient permissions, which causes delays.

Veracode is scalable. To increase the scale, we simply need to increase the number of licenses.

The technical support team's response time is inadequate. Typically, they fail to provide assistance beyond the initial call due to the limited knowledge and inability of the first-level support to resolve issues effectively. I have been dealing with a single issue for three weeks without any resolution.

Neutral

The vendor handles the deployment, and we simply need to install the ISM agents on our network. The deployment time depends on the size of the application. Large applications may take up to five days to scan, but on average, it takes one or two days.

The pricing depends on the functionality each client desires. For example, one of our clients only wishes to scan two applications, so they pay for that specific service in addition to our organization's third-party access to their system.

I give Veracode an eight out of ten.

20 to 30 percent of the false positive rates are vulnerabilities. Sometimes, almost 50 percent of the reports are false positives, which affects the time spent on tuning policies.

The false positives increase the amount of time our developers need to spend investigating the reports. 

Veracode offers static analysis, dynamic analysis, and composition analysis all in one place.

We are a team of five individuals who assist in deploying and managing Veracode, along with handling other tasks.

Our client base varies depending on their budgets, but we serve a large number of organizations in the financial industry.

I recommend Veracode. The solution is on par with the others, and organizations can read the reviews and run some tests before making a purchase.

We primarily use Veracode for static code analysis.

Veracode detects vulnerabilities. The most essential part is Veracode's PCI compliance policies. We need to make sure our code is compliant. Veracode's policy reporting features are effective at ensuring compliance with industry standards and regulations. The policy has changed here, but that functionality works quite well. It provides visibility to application status at every development stage. 

The solution helped us find and fix flaws. It ultimately saves us some time, but we still spend a long time sorting through the false positives. Every report generates a number of issues, some of which are valid. Others are mitigated by application design or network devices. Veracode improved our security overall. There is no doubt about that. 

The CSA vulnerability scanning is useful. 

The dynamic scanning feature appears to be working, however, 90%-95% of all vulnerabilities could be easily detected by any web browser.

When it comes to dynamic scanning Veracode needs to improve its functionality.

They claim that we can do this, but it doesn't work when we're scanning the applications in real time.  

Static code analysis generates too many false positives, so it takes a lot of time to review them all. The security and development teams need to work together to mitigate the false positives. It doesn't affect the developers' confidence in the solution. It still works, but it takes time. It has a significant impact on the process. 

I have been using Veracode for five or six years.

I rate Veracode support a seven out of ten. We have weekly meetings with the support representatives to discuss any issues with the tool. It's pretty good.

Neutral

I rate Veracode a five out of ten. 

We use Veracode to scan our code before release. The scan ensures our projects will have no issues. We only use Veracode for customer-facing and revenue-generating web applications. 

Application security is paramount. It's essential to check any extended web applications we are using. Veracode enables us to check integrated segments that are based on other websites. We can also perform a light scan on some of the smaller customer-facing web applications.  

Veracode provides visibility into application status, but we do not use it during every development phase. We only use Veracode before the code goes into production. It improves our DevSecOps. We use an agile process, so we have less time to fix issues when we discover vulnerabilities. Veracode helps us fix many critical issues but only if it is compatible with all the technologies. 

It helps if the products you use are from preferred vendors like Salesforce. If your tools are incompatible, you might get some false positives. You can still use products that aren't from preferred vendors, but if you use tools like Salesforce, etc., it will automatically recognize and ignore these issues. It cuts down on the time we spend investigating. 

The overall false positive rate is good. It is about 70-80 percent accurate. In some stages, we have to let issues go and defer the fix until another time. We might wait to release a patch later. 

Veracode adds value when we run it in an integrated environment where all the core systems are similar to our production environment. It adds value to the developers in the final stages of testing or the QA environment. We can use it for functional or system testing. That is where it adds value for the developers by enabling them to fix many of the issues. Nothing flows into the queue box. We can say it has been effective if it's up to 70 percent, but if we consider the environmental constraints, it's around 30 to 40 percent. 

It adds daily value by improving the security posture of our customer-facing web applications. A developer could make a mistake not caught in the QA process. 

I like Veracode's ease of integration with various cloud platforms and tools. 

I'm also a cybersecurity expert. In addition to vulnerabilities, I am looking at this from a holistic cybersecurity perspective. Bringing Veracode in line with the latest vulnerabilities would add value. We see APT issues often, and some processes could be left vulnerable if our tool cannot cope with them. It would improve Veracode to bring it up to date with current threats that the cybersecurity industry highlights.

I would also like Veracode to offer training and certifications that users can do on their own time. It would encourage people to build skills that they could reuse across the board. Many other software publishers offer this. It helps build a user base and generate interest. Training is an excellent way to market your product. It would also be helpful to build a user community online to create a knowledge base of expert users who can answer questions and advise Veracode on ways to improve the product.

We been using Veracode for five or six years. 

SonarQube is another solution we've used. SonarQube has some limitations, and we feel like it isn't keeping pace with the technology landscape. We had to reconsider our tool, which led us to adopt Veracode.

We had some challenges initially, but I think that was due to a lack of training. After deployment, Veracode doesn't require much maintenance. 

Veracode's price is reasonable because of the value it offers. If you don't catch bad code before it goes into production, you have to spend money to rework it, and a security failure in your product can cost your company. We think it's worth what we pay.

It would be nice if Veracode were bundled with some preferred vendors like Salesforce and offered at a discount.

I rate Veracode a nine out of ten.

We use Veracode for static web application scanning, and we've been using Vericode for our ethical hackers as well.

We have a dev, UAT, and staging environment. Veracode is included as a part of our DevSecOps in the staging environment. That means that when code is promoted to our staging environment, it automatically initiates a Veracode scan on our application.

The output and the recommendations given by Veracode are very useful. We are able to mitigate some of the vulnerabilities that the tool shows us. We are maintaining very clean applications with the help of the scanning we do with Veracode.

If any critical or high-risk vulnerabilities are detected in our code, we don't move it to production until we get a clean report. While we allow moderate and low-risk findings, we stop if it's critical or high. We do a scan on our staging whenever new code is promoted. Effectively, Veracode helps us to prevent moving the code to production if we detect any abnormalities.

Our application is an external-facing application and that means we have to proceed with the utmost caution when we promote code. Veracode has certainly been very helpful in giving us more accurate results and ensuring that our application does not have any vulnerabilities.

Veracode keeps developers aware of the possibility that issues will be identified. Once a vulnerability is detected, developers are careful to abide by the recommendations given by Veracode the next they are involved in new development. That's a positive regarding the solution. It helps improve the development process. We also share findings with the other development teams, so that they don't make the same mistake. We document the best practices so that the same flaws are not detected again. To that extent, our developers' time is optimally utilized.

Ours is a Java-based application and Veracode can detect vulnerabilities in both Angular, which is used for the UI, and also in the backend code, which includes APIs and microservices. That's one good aspect and something where other applications have a lower rating. Veracode gives us wholesome insights into the vulnerabilities in the application, both in the UI and in the backend.

Also, the false positive rate is good. I don't have any qualms about using Veracode.

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. In addition, one of my developers told me that they looked at the documentation that was given but still required the involvement of an expert to get the issue fixed. I would like the documentation to be a little more user-friendly.

Also, the turnaround times could be improved. From what I've heard, the scanning takes a bit of time to complete. If it could be completed a little more quickly, that would help.

We've been using it for five years.

There have been a couple of instances when the scan stopped or aborted and had to be manually triggered to complete. Other than that, there haven't been any challenges with Veracode

We used to have a tool called CAST, which determined code quality. It wasn't a security tool or scanner.

As an application manager, I certainly find Veracode very useful. It definitely improves the robustness of the application. It detects every single small or large flaw and helps us with the appropriate recommendations. I would go with Veracode unless there is a product that is equally capable but with a lower price.

Right now we have it on-prem but we are moving toward the cloud in the next six months or so. We've started that journey. I don't think there have been any difficulties in maintaining the pipeline. We've never had any challenges since we introduced Veracode as part of our DevSecOps pipeline.

For my application, it has definitely been a great tool. It ensures that your application is devoid of vulnerabilities. Go for it.

I'm using it to troubleshoot and know the issues in my code and resolve them as soon as possible.

Veracode helps me to understand and resolve vulnerabilities in my code. It's very good to have, and what's most interesting is that the Veracode Greenlight gives me real-time output and resolution. I can also schedule calls with the security experts for any resolution. It's good for understanding and resolving issues that my code might have.

Veracode definitely helps in creating a secure environment for both the company as well as the clients. Our clients require their data to be secure. They also require a stable solution. Veracode is helping me in developing a good product. It provides full information and also helps in a quick resolution.

Veracode is secure, and it has coding standards. It helps me in penetration testing and application security consultation. It exposes common vulnerabilities. The static scan is very good, and it gives me valuable information and a very good recommendation of how I can fix it.

We can integrate Veracode for both static and dynamic analysis to reduce the risks in the application and prevent vulnerabilities. A significant benefit is that you have a risk-free code. It minimizes the risks.

It gives visibility into the application status at every phase of development. There is Veracode Static Analysis, Dynamic Analysis, Software Composition Analysis, and Manual Penetration Test throughout SDLC.

Veracode has been very important and helpful in creating stable products because we are able to identify issues in the code and then create powerful and stable products for clients.

Veracode provides all details regarding the issues and the way to resolve them. It makes it easy for me as a developer to understand the issue in a better way. It improves a developer's confidence in the solution when fixing vulnerabilities.

Veracode has saved a lot of our time. It has saved us about 45% time.

Veracode has enhanced security. We are able to identify what is missing and what are the issues in the code. When we know that the code has an issue, we are able to make sure that we correct it. Veracode has helped us a lot in providing a stable, secure solution to our clients.

Veracode has helped us to develop faster because it's so straightforward. It has clear documentation that you can use to create a very good and stable environment for developers to collaborate and create a unique solution.

IDE Scan is the most important feature, and then you have SCA and Platform Scan.

I like the fact that it can be used at any stage of application development. I use scanning with a particular piece of code. There is an extension that helps me to create my code easily in Visual Studio and then find flaws before deploying the code. It's definitely benefiting me and the organization. It's so quick and easy to create a code and then deploy it live.

It's easy to create reports. It works very well. It's straightforward, and it does not require a lot of time. It's a straightforward platform that you can use for performing scans or mitigating issues. It has a very good user interface. FAQs are also helpful in case you are not familiar with it. It's good and straightforward when you integrate it with machine learning platforms.

It's very expensive for a small organization.

I have been using it for a year and a half.

It's a very stable solution.

It's scalable enough. Veracode is being used in the engineering department. It's being only used in one department by two people. It's a developer tool for developing solutions faster, troubleshooting, and debugging.

Their support is good because there is an option to request a consultation. If you face any issue or any difficulty with the scans or mitigation, they can help you out. The support service for me is very costly, but you also have a well-organized FAQ and a very big community for asking questions and getting a solution. I'd rate their support a 10 out of 10.

Positive

I haven't used a different solution. This is the first solution I've used.

I was involved in its deployment. It took me one week to implement Veracode. The process was straightforward. If you are lost or have any issues, you can read the documentation.

I implemented it.

It's not so huge to provide a lot of return on investment, but it's helping us to have a stable solution. It's a secure platform, but in terms of the return on investment, it hasn't made a very good impact yet. We have only seen 10% to 15% ROI.

It has reduced the cost of DevSecOps for the organization because we can use one platform to develop, troubleshoot, and debug faster, so it has helped us a lot.

It's very expensive, especially when you are a very small organization. If you're using Veracode at an individual level, for example, you're a developer or you run agents, the pricing might not affect you, but if you're using it at a company level to troubleshoot security issues, the pricing is not quite favorable. It may affect ROI.

Veracode is good. It's for organizations that want to give their customers both security and privacy. It's good in case you want to dive deep into the code and get the flaws that could be dangerous to both the organization and the customers using an application. If you are looking to create a good application that is also secure, I'd recommend Veracode.

Overall, I'd rate Veracode a 9 out of 10.

Our primary uses are for reviews of our code and overall software environment, bug fixes, and detection of security flaws.  

We use the solution across multiple locations and regions, including Asia Pacific, EMEA, and North America. Our user base consists of 5200 individuals. 

The solution has given us real results when it comes to improving our overall security posture; it provides the best security and reports, indicates any flaws that may be present, and allows us to take steps to rectify them. The tool is now a part of our DevSecOps, and we truly rely on it.  

Regarding our ability to fix flaws, Veracode is very helpful; it provides a sense of confidence to our developers and a summary of reports that we can share with stakeholders such as our clients and senior management. The solution identifies security loopholes and gives us detailed feedback reports, allowing us to take action to remedy our security vulnerabilities. 

Veracode helped our developers save time; two or three development team members were previously dedicated to code security. By automating this task using the solution, those developers can reallocate their time to core software development, which is an excellent result. The time saved is in the region of 25%.   

Static Analysis' false positive rate positively affected time and costs related to tuning, leveraging data, and machine learning. Tuning data is essential as it gives us update optimization within our database, which is helpful for any organization. Veracode is the industry leader in being a one-stop shop security solution; it takes care of every aspect.  

The user interface is excellent, the code review process is quick and provides great analytics to understand our code better, and the SAST scan is high-speed.

Veracode is excellent at preventing vulnerable code from going into production; the scans are speedy and give us a detailed analysis of our code. 

We use the Software Bill of Materials feature; it's essential and advantageous. We can't do a bill of materials manually, so it's excellent that Veracode provides this. SBOM helps us manage our risks, as every company has software that needs to be run appropriately throughout the user and client base. It's necessary to have a security audit or security compliance in such applications, and Veracode enables this functionality so we can easily identify security flaws and take measurable action.

Creating a report using the SBOM feature is straightforward, and it's important to our organization because it provides a return on our investment. Previously, we sometimes required a third-party resource to create reports, but with Veracode, it's easier to take care of that on our end.  

The solution's policy reporting allows us to set our standards, group policies, and regulations, so ensuring code compliance is part of its analysis. Veracode notifies us if any flaws are detected, allowing us to take action to correct them.  

The solution provides visibility into application status at every development phase throughout the SDLC; we can use Veracode during the development, design, testing, and implementation phases. We can easily analyze our code before commencing large production deployments and fix any issues.   

Sometimes we get a lot of false positives even after configuring our policies, so that could be improved.

There is an issue where the UI occasionally breaks in between uses of the application, which can be improved. The UI could also be more catchy for the benefit of the less technical users. 

It would be good if the configuration of dynamic scanning could be less complex.

We've been using the solution for over three years. 

The solution is stable. It wasn't before, as different organizations required new group policies and configurations. The product has yet to mature fully but has developed enough to adopt a stable position in the market.

The solution is as scalable as required, but we must pay for that. 

The technical support is good; I rate them nine out of ten.

Positive

We previously used some open-source software, but our developers generally manually performed code-checking. Our requirement is for a solution that takes care of our software code and security throughout the SDLC. Following evaluation, we found Veracode more useful in terms of licensing, pricing, and features.

The initial setup was straightforward; it took seven to ten days, including gathering all requirements, overall deployment, and the final implementation. The deployment team consisted of four to five members. 

The product doesn't require any maintenance; operations and support are primarily handled by Veracode, as it's a fully managed service. 

We have seen an ROI with Veracode regarding time, money, and overall organization reports. Our ROI is in the region of 25-30%.

The solution reduced the cost of our DevSecOps by lowering the headcount for those previously dedicated to security throughout the SDLC. They can now spend more time improving their code base and focusing on development.  

The pricing and licensing are reasonable, and relatively straightforward, and different licensing and subscription models are available.

To someone considering Veracode but concerned about the price, it can be a challenge for small and mid-sized organizations, but it's a good choice for larger enterprises. If security is a primary concern for any organization, they should consider Veracode; they won't be disappointed.  

We evaluated GitLab, Micro Focus, and SonarQube. 

I rate the solution nine out of ten. 

Regarding the tool's false positive rate, the analysis is good but can be affected by data and code not supported by Veracode. In these cases, we can experience some challenges, but other than that, the false positive reporting is good. In cases of unsupported code, developer confidence can be affected, as we know there may be some flaws we can't control. If they are minor enough, we can ignore them.

I advise others considering the product to go with it if it fulfills their requirements. Veracode is a tested name in the market for application security and detecting flawed code. They should evaluate other options if they fit the needs better, but I highly recommend Veracode.
