Partner experiences excellent technical support and seamless initial setup
In my opinion, if we are able to extract or show the report, and because everything is going towards agent tech and GenAI, it would be beneficial if it could get integrated with our code base and do the fix automatically. It could suggest how the code base is written and automatically populate the source code with three different solution options to choose from. This would be really helpful.

Effectively in identify and fix bugs early in the development lifecycle
When it comes to ShiftLeft, the most valuable feature is definitely its ease of use and cost-effectiveness. Previously, security professionals had to spend a lot of time and effort running around, asking people to fix issues in their products, architectures, code, and even networks. With ShiftLeft, everything becomes robust and secure from within. Instead of relying on external measures like Web Application Firewalls (WAF) that are applied from the outside in, ShiftLeft takes a proactive approach. It helps prevent issues from arising in the first place, making it much easier for both security teams and developers. It's also cost-effective because you don't have to constantly go back, make changes to the code, and then push it again. Writing secure code from the start ensures that there are no vulnerabilities when it goes live. So, I would say the main features of ShiftLeft are its cost-effectiveness and ease of adaptability or use.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution has good performance, it is able to compute in 10 to 15 minutes."
"The administration in Checkmarx is very good."
"The ability to track the vulnerabilities inside the code (origin and destination of weak variables or functions)."
"The most valuable features of Checkmarx are the SCA module and the code-checking module. Additionally, the solutions are explanatory and helpful."
"It is very useful because it fits our requirements. It is also easy to use. It is not complex, and we are satisfied with the results."
"Overall, the ability to find vulnerabilities in the code is better than the tool that we were using before."
"We were using HPE Security Fortify to scan code for security vulnerabilities, but it can scan only after a successful compile. If the code has dependencies or build errors, the scan fails. With Checkmarx, pre-compile scanning is seamless. This allows us to scan more code."
"Most valuable features include: ease of use, dashboard. interface and the ability to report."
"When it comes to ShiftLeft, the most valuable feature is definitely its ease of use and cost-effectiveness."
 

Cons

"You can't use it in the continuous delivery pipeline because the scanning takes too much time."
"I really would like to integrate it as a service along with the SAP HANA Cloud Platform. It will then be easy to use it directly as a service."
"Checkmarx being Windows only is a hindrance. Another problem is: why can't I choose PostgreSQL?"
"We have received some feedback from our customers who are receiving a large number of false positives."
"Checkmarx could be improved with more integration with third-party software."
"I would like to see the DAST solution in the future."
"We want to have a holistic view of the portfolio-level dashboard and not just an individual technical project level."
"Implementing a blackout time for any user or teams: Needs improvement."
"Having support from senior management is crucial in making it mandatory for teams to collaborate with the security team throughout the development process."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is costly."
"The number of users and coverage for languages will have an impact on the cost of the license."
"Most of my customers opted for a perpetual license. They prefer to pay the highest amount up front for the perpetual license and then pay for additional support annually."
"If you want more, you have to pay more. You have to pay for additional modules or functionalities."
"We have purchased an annual license to use this solution. The price is reasonable."
"This solution is expensive. The customized package allows you to buy additional users at any time."
"The price of Checkmarx could be reduced to match their competitors, it is expensive."
"It's relatively expensive."
