Klocwork vs Virsec Security Platform comparison

"The most valuable feature of Klocwork is finding defects while you're doing the coding. For example, if you have an IDE plug-in of Klocwork on Visual Studio or Eclipse, you can find the faults; similar to using spell check on Word, you can find out defects during the development phase, which means that you don't have to wait till the development is over to find the flaws and address the deficiencies. I also find language support in Klocwork good because it used to support only C, C++, C#, and Java, but now, it also supports Java scripts and Python."

"It's integrated into our CI, continuous integration."

"Klocwork's most valuable feature is the static code analysis feature. It detects the potential problem earlier to allow the developer to receive feedback quickly and then address it before it becomes a problem."

"We like using the static analysis and code refactoring, which are very valuable because of our requirements to meet safety critical levels and reliability."

"The most valuable feature is the Incremental analysis."

"The best advantage of Klocwork is the reduced setup time."

"The ability to create custom checkers is a plus."

"One can increase the number of vendors, so the solution is scalable."

"We use the solution for Zero-day protection."

"Modern languages, such as Angular and .NET, should be included as a part of Klocwork. They have recently added Kotlin as a part of their project, but we would like to see more languages in Klocwork. That's the reason we are using Coverity as a backup for some of the other languages."

"I believe it should support more languages, such as Python and JavaScript."

"Klocwork sometimes provides too many additional warnings which require expertise to manage."

"We bought Klocwork, but it was limited to one little program, but the program is now sort of failing. So, we have a license for usage on a program that is sort of failing, and we really can't use the license on anything else."

"The main problem is that since it only parses the code, the warnings or the problems that are given as a result of the report can sometimes require a lot of effort to analyze."

"Klocwork has to improve its features to stay ahead of other free solutions."

"There are too many warnings, and it requires expertise to determine the correct category for them."

"Klocwork sometimes provides too many additional warnings which require expertise to manage."

"The tool's dashboard needs to load since it is not responsive and takes time to load."

"Klocwork should not to be quite so heavy handed on the licensing for very specific programs."

"Licensing fees are paid annually, but they also have a perpetual license."

"Klocwork is still tight on their licensing. If Klocwork would loosen up on the licensing, and where the license could be used, and how many different programs could be run on it, then we have several development programs that I would love to be able to use it for going forward."

"The limitation that we have is that Klocwork is licensed to certain programs, and if you want to license them to other programs, you have to pay more money."

"This solution offers competitive pricing."

"The pricing for Klocwork is very competitive if you compare it from apple to apple. It has competitive pricing regarding the licensing model and the per-license cost. Klocwork isn't a high-end investment for anyone deploying it; even SMBs can afford it. The Klocwork cost per user would depend on the license type, so I'm unable to mention a ballpark figure because it would depend on the type of installation and how the deployment will be, and the nodes to give an accurate calculation or figure. The total price depends on the package, so my company could never publish pricing for Klocwork on the website. My team first collects information from potential clients on the deployment scenario, project environment, etc., before suggesting a package for Klocwork. My rating for Klocwork in terms of pricing is a five because of its flexible license models. There's a license model for every type of organization, whether small, midsize, or enterprise, so it's a five out of five for me."

"When it comes to licensing, the solution has two packages, one for a fixed and the other for a floating server, with the former being more cost effective than the latter."

"There are other solutions on the market such as Microsoft Visual Studio. They have been adding more static code analysis features that come for free. It is getting better all the time. That is one of the possibilities is that we've been considering that we may stop using the Klocwork because it doesn't give us any added value."

"I would rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten."
