The summary above is based on 190 interviews we conducted recently with Veracode and Wiz users. To access the review's full transcripts, download our report.
The scanners of Veracode bring status of the weaknesses in the current infrastructure. It scans and provides reports regarding the servers, the network, and the applications running on those servers.
Regarding price, the evaluation should focus on how efficiently they will recover their investment, considering the time saved through the use of Veracode Fix, for example, and the ability to fix code at dev time compared to the problems faced when fixing after the product is already deployed.
We have seen ROI from Wiz and we continued to see value in Wiz.
We estimate a cost reduction of around 35% to 50%, or even more, due to consolidating our security management into one platform.
Access to the engineering team is crucial for faster feedback on the product fix process.
I have communicated with the technical support of Veracode a couple of times, and this was a really great experience because these professionals know their material.
They share detailed information via email, including screenshots or further clarification about the issue.
We have a dedicated channel with Wiz and are always in communication with them.
The solution's technical support was excellent.
Century Data has an engineering team who support the initial calls with a local Knowledge base.
Cloud solutions are easier to scale than on-premise solutions.
It has a good capacity to scale effectively.
Implementing these features into our normal CI/CD was good, so I can say that scalability is really good.
We have deployed Wiz in three organizations on AWS, each with approximately 70 to 80 accounts, totaling more than 120 accounts.
Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.
Our environment quadrupled in size. We didn’t have to make any adjustments or configuration changes; it just accommodated the growth.
If the Veracode server is down, we experience many issues during the scan.
It's not that easy to onboard, but once they have been onboarded on the platform, and the pipeline configured alongside the product configured, it works effectively.
Stability-wise, I rate the solution an eight to nine out of ten.
The solution is very stable.
We haven't encountered any outages or issues with reports not running, finishing, or data being incomplete or inaccurate.
If it could be integrated directly with code repositories such as Bitbucket or GitHub, without the need to create a pipeline to upload and decode code, it would simplify the code scan process significantly.
We had issues with scanning large applications. Scanning took a lot of time, so we kept it outside the DevOps pipeline to avoid delaying deployments.
A nice addition would be if it could be extended for scenarios with custom cleansers.
We would like to see preventive controls that can be applied through Wiz to protect against vulnerabilities that we're not going to be able to remediate immediately.
One significant area for improvement would be increasing automation. While they excel at identifying issues, we need assistance in minimizing the human hours required for tasks.
We need an agent that can be installed, or that can overview all the containers and Kubernetes so that it can detect malicious activities that are happening in them.
It's not the most expensive solution.
Overall, Veracode's pricing is lower and more scalable than many alternatives in the market.
If there's a security gap, you'll never know the cost or effect.
We are paying 250k per year.
In some cases, it has a very aggressive price, so very cheap.
I don’t think there’s anyone else out there offering the same level, scale, or efficiency.
It offers confidence by preventing exposure to vulnerabilities and helps ensure that we are not deploying vulnerable code into production.
The best features in Veracode include static analysis and the early detection of vulnerable libraries; it integrates with tools such as Jenkins.
It fixes issues directly in the IDE while you're doing it.
The feature leads to minimal false positives and a low volume of alerts, which is highly valuable for our operations.
It's highly customizable, allowing us to manage many custom features effectively.
Regarding compliance and governance, Wiz streamlines our vulnerability management to meet specific needs effectively.
