Featured Reviews

Jonathan Steyn - PeerSpot reviewer
Allows for organizations and projects to manage open source vulnerabilities in an efficient, smooth and secure way
Debricked Security has already implemented several improvements, which are great. One area that could be improved is simplifying the process of converting other SBOM data formats into files that Debricked can understand. While the conversion isn't difficult, it is pretty technical and could be challenging for non-technical users. Apart from that, all software features work seamlessly. The integration with endpoints took less than fifteen minutes, and everything from security conventions to automation rules works perfectly. As for AI, Debricked Security uses it effectively, reducing manual work and unnecessary analysis. It enhances data analysis, making it much easier for customers, which I appreciate about the tool.

Affordable tool boosts code scanning efficiency but faces integration hurdles
The most important feature of Snyk is its cost-effectiveness compared to other solutions such as Check Point. It is easy to consolidate Snyk across multiple entities within a large organization. Additionally, our integration of Snyk into GitHub allows us to automatically scan codebases and identify issues, which has improved efficiency.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"One of the most valuable features of Debricked Security is its ability to integrate with other tools like the Software Security Center and Fortify on Demand. This integration allows users to make comparisons and generate detailed reports based on the data that Debricked Security populates or aggregates. While this feature may not be unique, it is highly effective for detecting vulnerabilities and providing comprehensive insights."
"I find SCA to be valuable. It can read your libraries, your license and bring the best way to resolve your problem in the best scenario."
"Our overall security has improved. We are running fewer severities and vulnerabilities in our packages. We fixed a lot of the vulnerabilities that we didn't know were there."
"From the software composition analysis perspective, it first makes sure that we understand what is happening from a third-party perspective for the particular product that we use. This is very difficult when you are building software and incorporating dependencies from other libraries, because those dependencies have dependencies and that chain of dependencies can go pretty deep. There could be a vulnerability in something that is seven layers deep, and it would be very difficult to understand that is even affecting us. Therefore, Snyk provides fantastic visibility to know, "Yes, we have a problem. Here is where it ultimately comes from." It may not be with what we're incorporating, but something much deeper than that."
"Provides clear information and is easy to follow with good feedback regarding code practices."
"It has improved our vulnerability rating and reduced our vulnerabilities through the tool during the time that we've had it. It's definitely made us more aware, as we have removed scoping for existing vulnerabilities and platforms since we rolled it out up until now."
"The product's most valuable features are an open-source platform, remote functionality, and good pricing."
"The solution's Open Source feature gives us notifications and suggestions regarding how to address vulnerabilities."
"The code scans on the source code itself were valuable."
 

Cons

"Debricked Security has already implemented several improvements, which are great. One area that could be improved is simplifying the process of converting other SBOM data formats into files that Debricked can understand. While the conversion isn't difficult, it is pretty technical and could be challenging for non-technical users. Apart from that, all software features work seamlessly. The integration with endpoints took less than fifteen minutes, and everything from security conventions to automation rules works perfectly. As for AI, Debricked Security uses it effectively, reducing manual work and unnecessary analysis. It enhances data analysis, making it much easier for customers, which I appreciate about the tool."
"It lists projects. So, if you have a number of microservices in an enterprise, then you could have pages of findings. Developers will then spend zero time going through the pages of reports to figure out, "Is there something I need to fix?" While it may make sense to list all the projects and issues in these very long lists for completeness, Snyk could do a better job of bubbling up and grouping items, e.g., a higher level dashboard that draws attention to things that are new, the highest priority things, or things trending in the wrong direction. That would make it a lot easier. They don't quite have that yet in container security."
"We would like to have upfront knowledge on how easy it should be to just pull in an upgraded dependency, e.g., even introduce full automation for dependencies supposed to have no impact on the business side of things. Therefore, we would like some output when you get the report with the dependencies. We want to get additional information on the expected impact of the business code that is using the dependency with the newer version. This probably won't be easy to add, but it would be helpful."
"We use Bamboo for CI.CD, and we had problems integrating Snyk with it. Ultimately, we got the two solutions to work together, but it was difficult."
"The feature for automatic fixing of security breaches could be improved."
"The tool's initial use is complex."
"DAST has shortcomings, and Snyk needs to improve and overcome such shortcomings."
"We were using Microsoft Docker images. It was reporting some vulnerabilities, but we were not able to figure out the fix for them. It was reporting some vulnerabilities in the Docker images given by Microsoft, which were out of our control. That was the only limitation. Otherwise, it was good."
"I use Snyk alongside Sonar, and Snyk tends to generate a lot of false positives. Improving the overall report quality and reducing false positives would be beneficial. I don't need additional features; just improving the existing ones would be enough."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Regarding the cost, in my country, I would say it is expensive. However, I’m not directly involved in the sales process, so I don't have the exact license costs."
"With Snyk, you get what you pay for. It is not a cheap solution, but you get a comprehensiveness and level of coverage that is very good. The dollars in the security budget only go so far. If I can maximize my value and be able to have some funds left over for other initiatives, I want to do that. That is what drives me to continue to say, "What's out there in the market? Snyk's expensive, but it's good. Is there something as good, but more affordable?" Ultimately, I find we could go cheaper, but we would lose the completeness of vision or scope. I am not willing to do that because Snyk does provide a pretty important benefit for us."
"Despite Snyk's coverage, scalability, reliability, and stability, it is available at a very competitive price."
"The pricing is acceptable, especially for enterprises. I don't think it's too much of a concern for our customers. Something like $99 per user is reasonable when the stakes are high."
"I would rate the pricing of Snyk at two. I'm currently using the free version, which the company offers before buying the full version. So, the price is affordable, especially for an enterprise."
"Presently, my company uses an open-source version of the solution. The solution's pricing can be considered quite reasonable owing to the features they offer."
"The product has good pricing."
"We are using the open-source version for the scans."
"The price of the solution is expensive compared to other solutions."
