Featured Reviews

Francisco Javier Vergara - PeerSpot reviewer
SecOps Engineer at Iriusrisk
Automated scans have streamlined vulnerability workflows and now provide clear daily risk reports
In my experience, the best feature Aikido Security offers is its ease of use, as it was really easy to onboard our engineers into adopting Aikido Security in their day-to-day lives. The reason onboarding my engineers with Aikido Security was so easy is the user interface. The first thing our engineers see when they log in is a feed of vulnerabilities that their own repositories are affected by, which helps them focus only on their work at hand. I would also like to add that the integrations part is really useful, as all of the integrations we have added so far, mainly Jira, IDE, and API integrations, are really easy to use because they are backed by strong documentation that they maintain daily. This is a commendation to them. Aikido Security has positively impacted our organization by helping us reduce the complexity in managing our vulnerabilities. We now have a single source of truth with Aikido Security, allowing us to get rid of manually maintained automations that we previously had.
Anand Nanwana - PeerSpot reviewer
DevOps Engineer at Syvora
Offers flexibility across clouds and easy credential management while interface improvements are needed
For JFrog Xray, the Artifactory and package repositories are valuable features. There are many benefits from JFrog Xray. For example, with other registries such as ECR, we can use the images only in the AWS cloud. With JFrog, we can use this registry from any cloud or work locally as well. JFrog can support multiple packages, such as NuGet package, pip, and other technologies. It can be used for Terraform as well. The credential management is very easy in JFrog. For instance, when using GitHub action as a CI/CD tool, I just need to create a token and set up JFrog CLI there and give access to the repository. With multiple repositories, I can generate a token for a specific repository, add that token in the GitHub secret, fetch from the CI/CD, run the command JFrog CLI, and authenticate through the token. Then we can push the images into JFrog.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Since switching to Aikido Security, I have noticed a positive impact on my team's productivity with measurable results, as we now have measurements."
"If multiple dependencies and vulnerabilities are found in a project, JFrog Xray is intelligent enough to tell you which vulnerability to target first."
"The most valuable feature of JFrog Xray is the display of the entire internal dependencies hierarchy."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"Good reporting functionalities."
"The most valuable features of JFrog Xray are its curation capabilities, its native integration with Artifactory, scanning for vulnerabilities, and license compliance features."
"I am utilizing the deep scanning capabilities in JFrog Xray product, and this feature is very handy because with other software, you don't know where the bad dependencies come from."
"JFrog Xray shows us a list of vulnerabilities that can impact our code."
"I would say that this solution has helped our organization by allowing us to automate a lot of the processes."
 

Cons

"I think Aikido Security could be improved by addressing its Jira integration, which I feel needs a bit of work."
"The speed of JFrog Xray should improve. Other solutions have better performance."
"I think that the user interface should be expanded to provide customers with a better dashboard for reviewing their feedback regarding their images and the vulnerabilities that are associated with the images."
"Lacks deeper reporting, the ability to compare things."
"X-ray needs improvement in supporting more than one database, as it currently only supports PostgreSQL."
"The UI of JFrog Xray could be improved. There is a dialogue box in the Xray section that doesn't always work properly."
"The out-of-the-box PostgreSQL provided is not stable, which is why we are considering enterprise support."
"JFrog Xray does not have a dashboard."
"Reporting is crucial, but it is lacking in the current tool. Every organization seeks specific data points rather than general information. Therefore, we require customized reports from the Xray tool."
