Veracode does an excellent job to prevent vulnerable code from entering production.

Veracode ensures that the products we create for our clients are free of any code-related issues. This keeps them satisfied with our service and encourages them to continue doing business with us.

Veracode provides peace of mind and increases confidence in our code within the market. We realized the benefits within a few months.

At first, we experienced a high number of false positives, but the Veracode team provided guidance that enabled us to significantly reduce the count.

Initially, our developers were frustrated due to the high false positive rate. However, as we managed to reduce the number of false positives and the developers recognized that these were not actual issues, their morale improved, and their acceptance of the use of Veracode increased.

The false positive rate of the static analysis reduced the time that we spend on different operations.

Veracode has had a significant impact on our organization's ability to address flaws. The solution is capable of detecting issues and providing suggestions that assist us in rectifying problems within the code.

Veracode helps our developers save time. We review the recommendations provided by the solution, adhere to our best practices, and then proceed to implement these suggestions. In cases where we might have had three lines of code, the solution is capable of reducing that to one or two lines. I would estimate that Veracode has decreased our developer time by 40 percent.

Veracode enables us to enhance our security posture by applying the knowledge we acquire through Veracode to all our new projects. Additionally, we can revisit previous projects to implement upgrades and add features, thereby enhancing their security.

Veracode helps to decrease our DevSecOps costs by saving our developers' time and aiding in the production of error-free code.

The static scan is the most valuable feature. We are also currently evaluating the Dynamic scan.

Veracode is costly, and there is potential for improvement in its pricing. In our region of the world, it is challenging to attract a significant number of sign-ups due to its unaffordability.

We have Veracode deployed in multiple locations.

Maintenance is only required when updating the solution.

You should evaluate multiple solutions, but I suggest considering Veracode if it aligns with the organization's requirements.

We use Veracode to scan our codes for vulnerabilities and risks.

Veracodes' ability to prevent vulnerable code from entering production works very well and it can detect the type of script used.

The software bill of materials helps us understand the industry that we are in and ensures we have a stable solution.

We can easily create a report using a software bill of materials because it has good templates that we can use.

Veracode has improved our organization by allowing us to fix the flows quickly for our clients by making data coding easy.

Veracode provides visibility into all phases of development.

The visibility into our development provides confidence to our DevSecOps that they will be able to deploy on time with no errors.

The false positive helps our DevOps troubleshoot every stage of development and increase their efficiency which boosts their confidence.

Veracode has helped our developers save around 20 percent of their time.

It has increased our organization's ability to fix flaws. We can scan code in a video which reduces costs and risk.

Veracode has increased security in our overall security posture because it detects flaws during scans.

We have saved around $500 a month in DevOps with Veracode.

Code scanning is the most valuable feature. 

The templates allow us to create wonderful reports.

The software bill of materials feature helps our supply chain security.

The backend support team of Veracode requires improvement as they are difficult to reach when we encounter issues.

The UI is not user-friendly and can be improved.

The speed of our internet connection affects the scanning process, which may take a considerable amount of time to finish. As a result, this can lead to challenges in planning and reporting, causing confusion.

I have been using the solution for three years.

It is stable.

Veracode is scalable.

The support is slow to respond.

Neutral

The initial setup was straightforward. I deployed the solution myself within three days.

The implementation was completed in-house.

We have seen a 32 percent return on investment with Veracode.

The licensing cost for Veracode is fair.

I give the solution an eight out of ten.

Veracode is user-friendly depending on how we use it. 

We have seven people using the solution.

Veracode does not require any maintenance on our end.

Veracode is a secure, reliable, and sustainable tool that all organizations should use for scanning code.

Veracode helps to prevent vulnerable code from going into production. They are providing remediation support. They provide a specific solution. If a code has any vulnerability, they provide the snippet of that code. They also provide recommendations. Their support team is very active. If you have any concerns related to the vulnerabilities, they schedule a call and resolve your issues. That is very good.

With Veracode, there are fewer false positives as compared to other tools. It provides genuine vulnerabilities. It is also user-friendly. They are not only sticking to SAST testing. They also have pen testing.

The visibility that Veracode provides is good. They provide a proper dashboard for everything. We have visibility into the application status at every phase of development - Static Analysis, Dynamic Analysis, Software Composition Analysis, and Manual Penetration Test. I am satisfied with it. We have not integrated it with our DevOps pipeline, but it has all the features for easy integration.

Veracode helps us to fix flaws. They provide very good recommendations. It is very easy for a developer to fix the flaws. They provide a specific solution.

Veracode has helped our developers save time. It has been very useful.

In my experience, Veracode is one of the most powerful tools available in the market from a security perspective. It is a market leader in source code analysis.

I am expecting some AI-related features in it. Also, if someone is using AI-generated code, Veracode should be able to detect that.

I have more than 12 years of experience working with Veracode. 

It is stable. There are no unplanned downtimes. If they are going to have downtime because of maintenance or any other reason, they communicate that to you a week before. They not only inform you by email. They also alert you through their portal.

Their support is good. I would rate them a ten out of ten. 

Positive

I work with almost all the tools available in the market. Its competitors are AppScan and Fortify. Synopsys is also there, and Checkmark is also there.

Veracode is the best tool as of now. That is because of the quality of the product and technical support. Veracode supports all the testing options.

Veracode is a leading tool in the market for code security. It is all about the source code review from a security perspective. It identifies the vulnerabilities in the source code. Apart from this, they also provide services for run-time code. If you have your application in production, it can also find vulnerabilities in that. They also support software composition. If your application is using a third-party library, they can identify the vulnerabilities in that.

It is straightforward. It is easy to deploy because it is a cloud-based service. It does not take long.

They are a mature company. They have already worked a lot on all the things. They keep on coming up with new features. Their R&D team is very good.

The ROI is in terms of time savings and security. If an attack happens because of a vulnerability, it costs a company and impacts its reputation. No one should be compromising on security.

As compared to others, it is a costly solution. It is overpriced, and many organizations with a limited budget cannot afford it. That is why they are going for other tools, but those tools are not that effective. Veracode is better in terms of quality. If you want good service, you have to pay for it.

I am working at a consultancy, and I did a PoC with five or six top tools in the market. I found Veracode to be the best in every aspect.

I am currently looking for some AI-powered tools. I am exploring the AI capabilities of various tools.

Overall, I would rate Veracode a nine out of ten. With AI capabilities, it would be a ten.

Previously, finding security issues in our complex healthcare software was a time-consuming process. Manually reviewing all logs took half our time. However, Veracode has revolutionized our workflow.

With Veracode's automated solution, we now receive daily reports highlighting security vulnerabilities. This allows us to address issues promptly, significantly reducing the previous two to three-week investigation period.

Veracode also eliminates the need for manual testing, freeing up our team for other tasks. Its user-friendly interface provides comprehensive scans, and detailed reports, and even pinpoints specific lines of code causing issues.

This shift-left approach has greatly improved our development process, resulting in fewer customer complaints. Proactive vulnerability detection and efficient issue resolution have significantly enhanced our team's productivity.

Veracode does a great job preventing vulnerable code from going into production. For enterprise-level companies, saving time is paramount. Previously, manual testing took days and still didn't uncover as many issues as Veracode now identifies. Despite having a skilled testing team, their workload has been reduced by 70 percent thanks to Veracode. This newfound efficiency has revealed vulnerabilities we wouldn't have found otherwise. Veracode excels at showcasing issues and their severity, extending beyond violation errors to encompass potential security risks and logic-related issues. Its user-friendly interface simplifies the process for all users, regardless of their technical expertise. As a developer, I recognize the immense effort behind Veracode's seamless operation. It automates the grunt work, freeing up our developers to focus on other tasks.

The policy reporting for ensuring compliance with industry standards and regulations is good. Veracode covers a vast majority of industry standards and identifies areas within our code that don't comply with those standards, providing remediation suggestions.

Veracode provides comprehensive visibility into application security throughout the entire Software Development Lifecycle. During the coding stage, Veracode scans the entire codebase for vulnerabilities. Additionally, we utilize Veracode's static analysis capabilities for further security assessment. Once the product is published and deployed to the production environment, Veracode analyzes the entire software stack to identify any potential security risks. In short, Veracode plays a vital role in various stages of our software development and production process.

Veracode has significantly improved our speed in fixing software flaws. It has also transformed our approach to addressing issues. Previously, we spent considerable time investigating the root cause of errors in the code. Now, thanks to Veracode, we can devote more of our intellectual resources to directly fixing the system, which ultimately results in a more efficient product for our users.

It has significantly reduced our build time. We automate our builds every day, running them between 3:00 AM and 5:00 AM. Once the build is complete, Veracode scans the entire build and provides a report by 6:00 or 7:00 AM. This allows us to review any new issues in the build by the time we start work at 9:00 AM, enabling us to address them quickly. Previously, this process took several days, but with Veracode, it now takes just a few hours. We now continuously review and fix issues every day, leading to significant time savings compared to our previous weekly review process.

Veracode has significantly enhanced our security posture by improving our security practices and increasing the efficiency of our security team. Additionally, we are now experiencing a decrease in the number of errors reaching production. Previously, our development process involved developers building and deploying code, then sending it to the security team for evaluation and subsequent feedback. This cycle is often repeated multiple times, leading to delays and inefficiencies. However, with the implementation of Veracode Greenlight, developers are now empowered to test their code directly, effectively shifting our first layer of security. This shift has enabled us to deliver even more secure products while simultaneously saving substantial amounts of time.

I would like Veracode to add more language support.

To use the Veracode extensions, we need to create a file in a folder and name it "prevention and filters." It would be more user-friendly if Veracode could automate this process by creating the file automatically when the Greenlight extension is installed. Additionally, a pop-up tool for security could be shown to guide users through the process making it more user-friendly.

I have been using Veracode for six months.

Veracode has been a stable platform for us to date.

Veracode can scale based on the price tier selected. I would rate the scalability of Veracode a nine out of ten.

The Veracode support team is excellent. I had an issue removing an account, so I emailed support. They created a case for me within one minute and sent me an automated email with a registered ticket. Within five to ten minutes, I was contacted by a support representative who quickly understood my problem.

My account had expired on the platform but hadn't been deleted from the backend. The representative understood this right away and provided a solution for a hard delete. He was also very knowledgeable but explained that he needed the administrator's permission to proceed. He suggested I add him to the thread, and everything was resolved smoothly.

Positive

I would rate Veracode a nine out of ten.

Minimal maintenance is required for Veracode.

We are not concerned that Veracode does not scan source code, as we believe scanning binary code is a more advantageous option.

Since security is paramount for applications, utilizing Veracode to identify and remediate vulnerabilities is a wise investment. This approach frees up valuable time and resources, allowing for more efficient progress.

We use Veracode as part of our development pipelines. It gives us security feedback when we run our applications. Our applications are completely containerized in Docker images with a .NET 4.6 architecture. These are web-based applications, so we want to know that all the HTTP requests are secured. The tool provides us with feedback to ensure that our application security is robust. 

We are primarily running Veracode to check for vulnerabilities after the build. There is no pre-build process. We are running a post-build static analysis and dynamic analysis. We run it at the end of the development process. 

Veracode's ability to detect security vulnerabilities is excellent. We can feel confident that none of the vulnerabilities will make it into production. It doesn't take long to realize the benefits from it. The interface is intuitive. We could start to see value from Veracode within a couple of weeks. 

We don't have many false positives. We're using the tool's default rules and haven't done much customization. We can feel confident in the solution's results. 
We can identify most of the issues before the production stage, and it also enables us to develop better practices in the development process. We also have a security testing team using Veracode to discover vulnerabilities. The discovery of issues after static analysis is super-efficient. It reduces our time spent on these tasks by about 30 percent. 

Veracode has had a positive impact on our overall security posture. It's comprehensive, which is critical because our applications are mostly integrated, so we don't want to take any chances. 

One thing we like is the secret detection feature. It has helped us to discover keys stored in our settings file as a TXT document. We can address that vulnerability by using encryption. We can even scan Docker images for vulnerabilities. Static analysis is another good feature of Veracode because we can run a security scan during development to identify the vulnerabilities.

Veracode helps us prevent vulnerabilities from entering production. We can put it into the pipeline and set an acceptable limit for vulnerabilities. If the number of vulnerabilities is under the threshold, we can deploy automatically. 

Veracode's container scanning could be improved. We containerize all the platforms we use inside a Docker image. For example, we create a Microsoft Docker image that we build our application on top of. I would like Veracode to implement IT scans before we commit the code.

I have only used Veracode for a year.

Veracode is stable. 

Veracode is scalable.

I rate Veracode support eight out of 10. 

Positive

We evaluated another solution briefly but we decided to keep Veracode. Veracode has some issues with container scanning, and we have some container-based applications. We considered bringing in another tool for container scanning, but it was too expensive and Veracode was able to mitigate the issues well enough. 

Veracode is affordable. It offers a good value for the security benefits it offers, especially if you're working with applications that involve payment processing. You cannot afford to take chances there. 

I rate Veracode nine out of 10. I recommend Veracode, depending on the type of application you are scanning. It's a leading solution in this domain. Veracode is the first name that comes to mind when people are talking about security scanning. 

As a full-stack developer, I am also involved with DebOps tasks. When deploying to different environments, we have stages that must be passed as part of DevOps. One of the primary stages that must be passed while deploying to Jenkins is Veracode Analysis. We also have SonarQube analysis, which typically checks code quality, code coverage, and other aspects, such as whether there are any bots or vulnerabilities. Once the code quality test is passed, it enters Veracode analysis. During Veracode analysis, the code is checked for vulnerabilities. Veracode also checks to see if any outdated jobs are being used in the code and suggests better versions to use. All of this information is clearly displayed in the Veracode analysis results. Veracode is linked to JFrog Artifactory, which is a repository of all the jobs available on the market. Veracode uses this information to choose which jobs to use and which jobs to fix. Veracode also explains the possible errors in the code.

We do not receive many threats. The threats are very minimal. Therefore, I have never been in a situation where Veracode had to save me from vulnerable code entering production. However, it is still helpful for us and our managers to access our code to see what is happening and what can be improved using Veracode.

Veracode is constantly being updated and improved. I started using it in October 2022, and at first, we didn't receive much training on it. As a result, we struggled to understand its features at first. However, after some interface changes, I found it easier to catch up. After six months or so, we were able to easily identify and understand what was happening. We use SBOM, and I believe that Veracode is improving significantly in its ability to assess specific vulnerabilities. For example, they are now trying to identify SQL-related injections as well. This is something that I appreciate.

The policy reporting ensures compliance with industry standards and regulations. It also provides a detailed report with multiple options. We can easily generate a report of four to ten pages, or even a one-page report. I really like the way Veracode generates reports on assessments. It's my favorite feature.

It provides visibility into application status at every phase of development, but we must manually scan applications to check the assessment for a specific application or after deploying it to a particular environment. I think they can change this so it automatically scans for us.

The false positive rate is low.

Veracode has improved our organization's ability to fix flaws, and fixing vulnerabilities has sometimes required us to develop new features. This has actually helped us and made our applications better.

It has helped our developers save a lot of time. Jobs are constantly changing and upgrading, Veracode allows us to easily assess the security of our jobs in 10-15 minutes, instead of 40-60 minutes.

Veracode helps us improve our security posture. Once we identify and fix the vulnerabilities Veracode finds, we no longer face any threats.

The feature I like most in Veracode is that it clearly specifies the line in the entire file where a vulnerability is found. For example, if there is a vulnerability on line 32 of the demo.java file, Veracode will clearly state that and also tell me the severity of the threat, such as moderate, high, or very high.

The interface is basic and has room for improvement.

The main problem I have faced with Veracode is that it does not integrate well with JFrog Artifactory, the repository where all our jobs are stored. This means that sometimes jobs are not reflected in the Veracode report, which is a major drawback.

We have a Maven repository provided by Maven itself, which is widely used by all developers. It is the heart of these jobs, and every detail is available in the jobs. So when Veracode says that a specific job is not vulnerable, but the Maven repository says that it is, I don't think Veracode is updated daily. This is a problem because if I fix the job, taking two to three hours to do so, and then Veracode is updated two weeks later and linked to the Maven repository again, Veracode may show that the job is no longer vulnerable. This is a threat, as it wastes a lot of time for developers. As developers, we usually have deadlines to meet for moving to particular environments, such as UAT or production. Veracode is wasting our efforts by not being updated daily.

I have been using Veracode for one year.

The stability can be improved. There are times when we don't see our applications and have to ask a Veracode support person to add them.

Veracode is scalable, and we have not had any issues with the Microsoft and Solar components that we use. It has always worked seamlessly, and we have the ability to scale up to 15 components on our end.

We only had to use the technical support once and it was fine.

Neutral

I would rate Veracode eight out of ten.

There is minimal maintenance required from developers. The infrastructure team will take care of it. So, let's say there is one application, four microservice components, and six flow components. In that case, two members can easily maintain the Veracode platform.

I am one of five member developers from India who are using Veracode. We also have locations in Spain, Mexico, and London.

I recommend Veracode for organizations that are not in the cloud and still working on-premises. 

We are using Veracode to shift development left. Therefore, we want to train our team of third-party vendors and improve our code security.

Veracode has been effective at preventing vulnerable code from entering production. I can easily enable the support team. Additionally, the reports are free. Although we are at the beginning of our journey, I can see that Veracode is capturing vulnerabilities.

The cooperation between the security team and the development team is improving, and our security team's visibility is increasing. As a result, we are achieving better and better results, and Veracode is helping to improve our security posture.

I am using Veracode's preconfigured policies because I find them useful and complex.

I am satisfied with Veracode's visibility into application status at every phase of development.

We can see that false positives are quite low, around five to ten percent.

We can add notes to any false positives during static analysis testing so that our developers can see the notes and avoid wasting time on them.

Veracode's reporting function and executive summary help us emphasize the security of our business-critical products to our business, which also helps us get sponsorship from our management to fix flaws and move forward.

Veracode helps our developers save 10 percent of their time by identifying security flaws early in the development process. This allows us to fix the flaws before they go into production, which is more efficient and cost-effective.

Veracode has helped us improve our security posture.

The admin ID can be downloaded into Visual Studio, for example, and developers can use that directive without having to type code. I think this is the best feature of Veracode.

The integration of static testing with our Azure DevOps CI pipeline was easy.

Veracode's support could be better. It is limited and slow.

The security labs integration has room for improvement. Currently, it is not possible to see the security labs training reports on the dashboard. These reports are only available separately in the security labs platform. I think that adding the dashboards for integration would be a good area of improvement.

I have been using Veracode for almost six months.

Veracode is stable.

Veracode is easy to scale.

Technical support needs to improve its response times and the details of its responses.

Neutral

The deployment was somewhat complex because some of the documentation was outdated, which caused some problems. There was confusion about how to implement the static pipeline scan. It took some time to find the correct articles and speak with the support team to implement Veracode.

The deployment took a couple of hours and required one DevOps and one tech person.

Veracode is fairly priced.

Before selecting Veracode, we evaluated SonarQube and Codacy. We chose Veracode because of its comprehensiveness and its ability to provide us with a solution for each phase of the software development life cycle. Veracode offers both dynamic code analysis and static code analysis solutions. With Veracode, we were able to get everything we needed in one place, without having to sign contracts with multiple vendors.

I would rate Veracode eight out of ten.

We deployed Veracode in one location and have ten users.

I recommend Veracode based on the script language being used.
