Featured Reviews

Rohit Kesharwani - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides good security analysis and security identification within the source code
We integrate Checkmarx into our software development cycle using GitLab's CI/CD pipeline. Checkmark has been the most helpful for us in the development stage. The solution's incremental scanning feature has impacted our development speed. The solution's vulnerability detection is around 80% to 90% accurate. I would recommend Checkmarx to other users because it is one of the good tools for doing security analysis and security identification within the source code. Overall, I rate Checkmarx a nine out of ten.
Jasmin Surani - PeerSpot reviewer
Enhances the overall safety of our company's environment from cyber threats
The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is its lightweight sensor, taking minimal space and not impacting server performance. The centralized console is a huge advantage, letting me manage everything from one place. It also allows running scripts directly on machines through the portal, making it highly convenient.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like that you don't have to compile the code in order to execute static code analysis. So, it's very handy."
"It is very useful because it fits our requirements. It is also easy to use. It is not complex, and we are satisfied with the results."
"What I like best about Checkmarx is that it has fewer false positives than other products, giving you better results."
"The most valuable feature for me is the Jenkins Plugin."
"Checkmarx offers many valuable features, including Static Application Security Testing (SAST), Software Composition Analysis (SCA), Infrastructure as Code (IAC), Supply Chain Security, and API Security."
"The solution is scalable, but other solutions are better."
"Most valuable features include: ease of use, dashboard. interface and the ability to report."
"The most valuable feature of Checkmarx is the user interface, it is very easy to use. We do not need to configure anything, we only have to scan to see the results."
"The immediate mitigation of potential threats and instant alerts are valuable."
"I think the overall solution should be rated a ten out of ten."
"Cloud security posture management (CSPM) is most valuable."
"CrowdStrike utilizes signatureless technology, eliminating the need for regular signature updates on endpoint systems."
"It provides alerts on suspicious command executions, helping us safeguard our systems."
"The alerts are clearer, and the capabilities are much better than the others."
"Technical support is helpful."
"I find the easy installation process, quick detection capabilities, and the cloud-based console very useful for this solution."
 

Cons

"Micro-services need to be included in the next release."
"The product's reporting feature could be better. The feature works well for developers, but reports generated to be shared with external parties are poor, it lacks the details one gets when viewing the results directly from the Checkmarx One platform."
"Its pricing model can be improved. Sometimes, it is a little complex to understand its pricing model."
"We are trying to find out if there is a way to identify the run-time null values. I am analyzing different tools to check if there is any tool that supports run-time null value identification, but I don't think any of the tools in the market currently supports this feature. It would be helpful if Checkmarx can identify and throw an exception for a null value at the run time. It would make things a lot easier if there is a way for Checkmarx to identify nullable fields or hard-coded values in the code. The accessibility for customized Checkmarx rules is currently limited and should be improved. In addition, it would be great if Checkmarx can do static code and dynamic code validation. It does a lot of security-related scanning, and it should also do static code and dynamic code validation. Currently, for security-related validation, we are using Checkmarx, and for static code and dynamic code validation, we are using some other tools. We are spending money on different tools. We can pay a little extra money and use Checkmarx for everything."
"The pricing can get a bit expensive, depending on the company's size."
"The interactive application security testing, or IAST, the interactive part where you're looking at an application that lives in a runtime environment on a server or virtual machine, needs improvement."
"We want to have a holistic view of the portfolio-level dashboard and not just an individual technical project level."
"The resolutions should also be provided. For example, if the user faces any problem regarding an installation due to the internal security policies of their company, there should be a resolution offered."
"There is room for improvement in the solution's ability to handle Linux systems."
"Different file options should be available, and clients should be able to select from the options."
"I would not say the tool's integration capabilities were straightforward because the complexity depends on the volume of the data."
"The tool's scalability is low."
"Customers would benefit it CrowdStrike adopted some of SentinelOne's technologies."
"I think the UI could be improved, but the technical support said CrowdStrike will improve the UI in the near future. But right now, it’s so messy."
"The only challenge lies in token verification."
"The tool is expensive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have purchased an annual license to use this solution. The price is reasonable."
"The solution's price is high and you pay based on the number of users."
"Checkmarx is comparatively costlier than other products, which is why some of the customers feel reluctant to go for it, though performance-wise, Checkmarx can compete with other products."
"The solution is costly."
"It's relatively expensive."
"This solution is expensive. The customized package allows you to buy additional users at any time."
"If you want more, you have to pay more. You have to pay for additional modules or functionalities."
"The price of Checkmarx could be reduced to match their competitors, it is expensive."
"It's an expensive product"
"CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is very expensive for us. Last month, we had a big issue that took much time and money to resolve. It slowed down our business and required our management team to get involved. We had a problem similar to the "Blue Screen of Death" issue many US companies faced. This incident used up many of our IT resources in just a few months. That's why we're looking for a replacement tool now."
"It's an expensive package but does what it says it will do."
"Its price is moderate."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is pricy."
"The pricing is reasonable, neither overly expensive nor excessively cheap, making it competitive compared to other market options."
"The price is not too high, it is okay."
"CrowdStrike Falcon is very expensive."
