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.

Detects, analyzes, and fixes any coding issues

When it's integrated with a weak server machine, the performance isn't that great. It starts up slowly and even crashes at times. If they optimized some of the modules within the ReSharper extension, it would be smoother and faster. Sometimes when the machine is a bit overloaded, it causes it to crash and you need to disable the extension and then re-enabled it. It's not really a stability issue, it probably depends on the machine, but they should consider the fact that not all people have strong machines with high hardware specifications. As long as you have a good processor it will work smoothly, but regarding minimum requirements, it needs to be revisited.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"One of the most valuable features is it is flexible."

"The solution improved the efficiency of our code security reviews. It helps tremendously because it finds hundreds of potential problems sometimes."

"The user interface is excellent. It's very user friendly."

"The solution allows us to create custom rules for code checks."

"The SAST component was absolutely 100% stable."

"The most valuable feature is that it actually identifies the different criteria you can set to meet whatever standards you're trying to get your system accredited for."

"The reports are very good because they include details on the code level, and make suggestions about how to fix the problems."

"The solution is scalable, but other solutions are better."

More Checkmarx One pros

"It comes with many features and supports almost all of the coding languages available."

"The most valuable feature of ReShaper is that it provides continuously scanning of the data in real-time. ReShaper has a really good mechanism and process, they have a decent system."

Cons

"I would like to see the tool’s pricing improved."

"Its user interface could be improved and made more friendly."

"Its pricing model can be improved. Sometimes, it is a little complex to understand its pricing model."

"Checkmarx needs to be more scalable for large enterprise companies."

"The plugins for the development environment have room for improvements such as for Android Studio and X code."

"They should make it more container-friendly and optimized for the CI pipeline. They should make it a little less heavy. Right now, it requires a SQL database, and the way the tool works is that it has an engine and then it has an analysis database in which it stores the information. So, it is pretty heavy from that perspective because you have to have a full SQL Server. They're working on something called Checkmarx Light, which is a slim-down version. They haven't released it yet, but that's what we need. There should be something a little more slimmed down that can just run the analysis and output the results in a format that's readable as opposed to having a full, really big, and thick deployment with a full database server."

"Checkmarx has a slightly difficult compilation with the CI/CD pipeline."

"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."

More Checkmarx One cons

"When it's integrated with a weak server machine, the performance isn't that great. It starts up slowly and even crashes at times."

"ReShaper could improve by increasing the performance of the scans. Their application is taking too much CPU. The processing is taking too many CPU resources which causes the system to slow down."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's price is high and you pay based on the number of users."

"The price of Checkmarx could be reduced to match their competitors, it is expensive."

"The tool's pricing is fine."

"I would rate the solution’s pricing an eight out of ten. The tool’s pricing is higher than others and it is for the license alone."

"The average deal size was usually anywhere between $120K to $175K on an annual basis, which could be divided across 12 months."

"It's relatively expensive."

"It is the right price for quality delivery."

"This solution is expensive. The customized package allows you to buy additional users at any time."
