Unified risk scoring has improved our cloud visibility and simplifies remediation priorities
Qualys TotalCloud provides unified vulnerability and threat assessment across both IAS and SaaS. This solution provides a single prioritized view of risk, which helps reduce the work I would have to do. We are no longer based on CVSS; we are based on Qualys risk scoring, which is based on CVSS plus internal findings made by Qualys, and then assigns its own score. The TruRisk insight feature has found a small number of assets with high vulnerability scores, though I am cautious since some information is classified. Qualys TotalCloud has positively impacted our bank's performance, and we have definitely seen benefits after implementing this solution.

The solution helps users to manage their entire IP range, but it's unreliable and very expensive to maintain
Only the administrator was using the product. He used it to read reports as part of our compliance programs. It wasn't heavily used by a lot of users. The tool comes in at a large scale, and we tried to scale it down. The scaling did not apply to us. It was neither difficult nor easy. I rate the scalability a five out of ten. We had some challenges while scaling it down. It could do 10,000 devices, and we wanted to use it for ten devices. The process was difficult and expensive. We did not need the product anymore.

Helps ensure that third-party libraries we're using are safe, but the scanning process can be more streamlined
It is somewhat complex compared to Fortify. As a Fortify user for almost five years, I find Veracode complex, but others in my team who have used it for eight to nine years don't find such issues. When we were doing manual scans before CI/CD integration, it was easier. It took approximately four to five months to onboard the solution because it was new to developers as well. There was a certain process to be followed to get access and integrate it into the CI/CD tools. We had to explain the report format to them, showing where they could find vulnerabilities and how they could fix the code, including finding safer versions of libraries and dependencies. This took almost half of 2023, and now in 2025, they do not need our help except for technical problems when there are numerous scans in the pipeline.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the consolidated information that it provides from various platforms."
"Qualys TotalCloud's most valuable feature is its agent versatility."
"Its dashboards are brilliant. It provides in-depth insights."
"The most valuable feature of Qualys TotalCloud is the visibility it provides."
"Qualys TotalCloud has positively impacted our bank's performance, and we have definitely seen benefits after implementing this solution."
"Its excellent graphical interface makes the scanning process simple."
"I found the initial setup user-friendly."
"Qualys TotalCloud's most valuable feature is its ability to link clusters of assets, providing a clear model of deployments, vulnerabilities, and statuses."
"Tripwire IP360 helps me to discover most of the vulnerabilities, and I like the way that it prioritizes these vulnerabilities, as it allows me to focus on the most important ones first and then follow up with the rest."
"The company probably chose this solution because they thought that they would be getting the best bang for their buck."
"It's become the pinnacle point for anything that enters the network or anything that's passing through to production to first be affected by IP360, hardened, and up to standard. For our integrity management, one was deployed in the bank about two years ago and that's still going to expand the usage and the product itself. That will go hand in hand with training and expanding the product as for where it's deployed."
"This product detects vulnerabilities which exist in the environment, and provides enough information that allows for remediation, thereby securing the environment."
"We could manage our entire IP range with the solution."
"It has enhanced the security program by ensuring that all external-facing systems are scanned on a routine basis."
"Tripwire IP360 is a very stable solution."
"Tripwire is one of the most mature in terms of companies, suites, support, everything, much more than any other product."
"Veracode helped with policy compliance."
"Our development team use this solution for static code analysis and pen testing."
"The CSCA vulnerability scanning is useful."
"The product provides guidance to develop secure software."
"Veracode has impacted our overall security posture because we are from a security background. Every week, we review the dashboards of open findings."
"Veracode's integration with our continuous integration solution is what I've found to be the most valuable feature. It is easy to connect the two and to run scans in an automated way without needing as much manual intervention."
"The most valuable feature is the efficiency of the tool in finding vulnerabilities."
"It has the ability to scale, and the fact that it doesn't produce a lot of false positives."
 

Cons

"We encountered challenges identifying the correct resource category for certain items, such as those in containers or storage."
"Qualys's ticketing system can be confusing when assigning tasks to individuals, and support could be improved by offering instant call solutions with engineers in addition to ticket replies."
"I would appreciate additional integration options to connect Qualys TotalCloud with our other vulnerability management tools."
"In a future release, I suggest that zero-day vulnerabilities should be predicted in advance using AI technologies. The system is not 100% secure yet, so proactive threat hunting could be enhanced to be more proactive than the current system."
"Qualys TotalCloud needs to improve its accuracy for non-Windows operating systems."
"In my opinion, what can be improved in Qualys TotalCloud includes pricing and container scanning."
"Qualys TotalCloud's increasing complexity, due to the development and deployment of multiple solutions, is making the GUI difficult to navigate."
"TotalCloud could improve its scanning of niche devices like Wi-Fi dongles and USB modems because they are often untested. It covers everything else, like laptops, mobile devices, and Bluetooth IoT devices. They can improve on the small IoT devices because hackers and testers use these."
"I am not very impressed by the technical support."
"We would like to have better reporting capabilities and for them to be more granular."
"I am not very impressed by the technical support."
"The reporting functions can use improvement."
"The reporting functions can use improvement. There is room for growth because reporting functions differ a lot depending on what you're going to output. It depends on whether it's for technical or senior management and how it's interpreted. There could be growth within the reporting functionality side."
"If you are looking for better reporting capabilities and vulnerability tracking over time for remediation purposes, then this is not the best solution."
"We need to dedicate time and resources to keep it running."
"For IP360, unfortunately, scans for certain vulnerabilities often cause issues, as they are mainly false positive."
"If Veracode was more diversified, as far as the number of platforms and the number of applications it could do in our favor, we would be using it even more."
"When we scan binary, when we perform binary analysis, it could go faster. That has a lot to do with the essence of scanning binary code, it takes a little bit longer. Certain aspects, depending on what type of code it is, take a little long, especially legacy code."
"Veracode does not support scans for .NET Blazor server applications."
"It is pricey. There is a lot of value in the product, but it is a costly tool."
"The static analysis is prone to a lot of false positives. But that's how it is with most static analysis tools... Also, the static analysis can sometimes take a little while. The time that it takes to do a scan should be improved."
"My advice for anybody who is interested in implementing this solution is to ensure that your technology is actually supported because the coverage is quite patchy."
"They cover a lot of languages already and it doesn't make sense for them to cover legacy languages but I know there is a need for covering legacy languages."
"It can be a bit complex because it takes a lot of time to have it complete the task."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"As a middle management member, I do not have direct pricing knowledge, but based on the knowledge from our meetings, its pricing is competitive."
"Qualys TotalCloud is expensive, but it offers a premier solution with no headaches."
"Qualys TotalCloud is expensive."
"It isn't cheap, but it's reasonable. It helps us to manage things with very few resources."
"The pricing is comparable. It is built into our other product, so I cannot piecemeal it. It is a part of our subscription."
"Qualys TotalCloud is cost-efficient and was selected for its value compared to other products."
"I am not sure about the pricing. From what I understand, it is a bit on the higher side, but I do not have the exact numbers."
"TotalCloud's price is about right where I would expect it to be."
"I believe the price compares well within the market."
"The product was expensive for us."
"It can be expensive to do this, so I would just make sure that you're getting the proper number of licenses. Do your analysis. Make sure you know exactly what it is you need, going in."
"Licensing cost is on a yearly basis and there are no additional costs, the pricing is straightforward."
"The Veracode price model is based on application profiles, which is how you package your components for scanning."
"The pricing is reasonable compared to other tools."
"I think licensing needs to be changed or updated so that it works with adjustments. Pricing is expensive compared to the amount of scanning we perform."
"If I compare the pricing with other software tools, then it is quite competitive. Whatever the price is, they have always given us a good discount."
"The worst part about the product is that it does not scale at all. Also, microservices apps will cost you a fortune."
"They just changed their pricing model two weeks ago. They went from a per-app license to a per-megabyte license. I know that the dynamic scan was $500 per app. Static analysis was about $4500 yearly. The license is only for the number of users, it doesn't matter what data you put in there. That was the old model. I do not know how the new model works."
