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."
"We have integrated it into our software development environment. We have it in a couple different spots. Developers can use it at the point when they are developing. They can test it on their local machine. If the setup that they have is producing alerts or if they need to upgrade or patch, then at the testing phase when a product is being built for automated testing integrates with Snyk at that point and also produces some checks."
"The most effective feature in securing project dependencies stems from its ability to highlight security vulnerabilities."
"It is easy for developers to use. The documentation is clear as well as the APIs are good and easily readable. It's a good solution overall."
"Snyk categorizes the level of vulnerability into high, medium, and low, which helps organizations prioritize which issues to tackle first."
"The CLI feature is quite useful because it gives us a lot of flexibility in what we want to do. If you use the UI, all the information is there and you can see what Snyk is showing you, but there is nothing else that you can change. However, when you use the CLI, then you can use commands and can get the output or response back from Snyk. You can also take advantage of that output in a different way. For the same reason, we have been using the CLI for the hard gate in the pipeline: Obtain a particular CDSS score for vulnerability. Based on that information, we can then decide if we want to block or allow the build. We have more flexibility if we use the CLI."
"Snyk allows for scaling across large organizations, accommodating tens of thousands of applications and over 60,000 repositories, making it suitable for wide-scale deployment."
"The advantage of Snyk is that Snyk automatically creates a pull request for all the findings that match or are classified according to the policy that we create. So, once we review the PR within Snyk and we approve the PR, Snyk auto-fixes the issue, which is quite interesting and which isn't there in any other product out there. So, Snyk is a step ahead in this particular area."
"I am impressed with the product's security vulnerability detection. My peers in security are praising the tool for its accuracy to detect security vulnerabilities. The product is very easy to onboard. It doesn't require a lot of preparation or prerequisites. It's a bit of a plug-and-play as long as you're using a package manager or for example, you are using a GitHub repository. And that is an advantage for this tool because developers don't want to add more tools to what they're currently using."
 

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."
"I would like to give further ability to grouping code repositories, in such a way that you could group them by the teams that own them, then produce alerting to those teams. The way that we are seeing it right now, the alerting only goes to a couple of places. I wish we could configure the code to go to different places."
"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."
"Because Snyk has so many integrations and so many things it can do, it's hard to really understand all of them and to get that information to each team that needs it... If there were more self-service, perhaps tutorials or overviews for new teams or developers, so that they could click through and see things themselves, that would help."
"The solution's integration with JFrog Artifactory could be improved."
"They were a couple of issues which happened because Snyk lacked some documentation on the integration side. Snyk is lacking a lot of documentation, and I would like to see them improve this. This is where we struggle a bit. For example, if something breaks, we can't figure out how to fix that issue. It may be a very simple thing, but because we don't have the proper documentation around an issue, it takes us a bit longer."
"Snyk has several limitations, including issues with Gradle, NPM, and Xcode, and trouble with AutoPR."
"There are some new features that we would like to see added, e.g., more visibility into library usage for the code. Something along the lines where it's doing the identification of where vulnerabilities are used, etc. This would cause them to stand out in the market as a much different platform."
"Compatibility with other products would be great."
 

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."
"For what Snyk offers, it has the best cost-benefit I have ever seen because you're buying the license per user."
"Pricing-wise, it is not expensive as compared to other tools. If you have a couple of licenses, you can scan a certain number of projects. It just needs to be attached to them."
"We are using the open-source version for the scans."
"The price of the solution is expensive compared to other solutions."
"Their licensing model is fairly robust and scalable for our needs. I believe we have reached a reasonable agreement on the licensing to enable hundreds of developers to participate in this product offering. The solution is very tailored towards developers and its licensing model works well for us."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing a three. It is a cheap solution."
"It's inexpensive and easy to license. It comes in standard package sizing, which is straightforward. This information is publicly found on their website."
"The product's price is okay."
