We performed a comparison between Checkmarx One and GitHub based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Application Security Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Checkmarx pinpoints the vulnerability in the code and also presents the flow of malicious input across the application."
"The identification of verification-related security vulnerabilities is really important and one of the key things. It also identifies vulnerabilities for any kind of third-party tool coming into the system or any third-party tools that you are using, which is very useful for avoiding random hacking."
"The UI is user-friendly."
"Vulnerability details is valuable."
"The solution improved the efficiency of our code security reviews. It helps tremendously because it finds hundreds of potential problems sometimes."
"Less false positive errors as compared to any other solution."
"The solution is always updating to continuously add items that create a level of safety from vulnerabilities. It's one of the key features they provide that's an excellent selling point. They're always ahead of the game when it comes to finding any vulnerabilities within the database."
"It is a stable product."
"This solution is just easy to use."
"The code sharing and updated history are valuable features."
"This product allows us to easily collaborate on development tasks with our subcontractors, and control the workflow as the project progresses."
"It is really simple to set up."
"GitHub have a built-in software application development environment and this has been most useful."
"You can write the code with AI. But when it comes to implementation, you must upgrade the bits of code that will support this and generate solutions based on that architecture. Then, you need comparable code bits. Therefore, AI can propose how much a specific function can be better optimized. So, AI can help stakeholders reach tasks quicker."
"GitHub's version control is valuable."
"I find the most valuable collaboration between our peers to be a seamless collaboration between our peers. We can connect and change our code, allowing us to be agile in our projects. Since we're talking about DevOps, we're using Jenkins in our pipeline. It helps speed up the process by automating the DevOps workflow."
"Meta data is always needed."
"The plugins for the development environment have room for improvements such as for Android Studio and X code."
"One area for improvement in Checkmarx is pricing, as it's more expensive than other products."
"The validation process needs to be sped up."
"I expect application security vendors to cover all aspects of application security, including SAST, DAST, and even mobile application security testing. And it would be much better if they provided an on-premises and cloud option for all these main application security features."
"Some of the descriptions were found to be missing or were not as elaborate as compared to other descriptions. Although, they could be found across various standard sources but it would save a lot of time for developers, if this was fixed."
"Checkmarx being Windows only is a hindrance. Another problem is: why can't I choose PostgreSQL?"
"Its user interface could be improved and made more friendly."
"The security point should be addressed in the next release and scaling is also an issue."
"The product must document the CI/CD process more."
"It would be beneficial if GitHub provided some security scanning for new libraries to ensure that there are no viruses in it."
"I would like a more graphical, user-friendly UI, to avoid writing so much code on cmd."
"We want to incorporate management comments within GitHub, making it more like a product management tool. We haven't done that yet. Another change we're considering is migrating from GitHub to Azure DevOps, especially now that Microsoft has introduced it."
"I cannot recall coming across any shortcomings of the product."
"GitHub could add more security features. I am not sure how secure it is. If they provide more security features, then it can be used in more official applications."
"Scalability is an area with a shortcoming, because of which it has room for improvement."
