    If you are going with SAST process or want to improve overall security posture then go for it like integrating it with post deployment steps. If you are more concerned about proactive controls better choose other options such as pee-commit hooks and CI security. Also choose other tools for DAST and API scans.

    It works great if you want to run an application as an admin. We did find out that it will not work, or at least we cannot get it to work for users that need to change the IP address on their endpoint to connect to a traffic light. So far those users are still admins until we can figure it out

    • The agent on the endpoint will sometimes fail to install or it will get corrupted. Nothing in the console that we can find tells us that there is an issue
    • Create an agent that also works with the other products that you sell. If we have more than one product there is a chance that it may not work
    • I really do not have a 3rd. This is a really good product

    Their API based customizations which I leveraged to create an ASPM package, which is developer friendly and can extend above the dashboard features, other ones are UI which is great and feels clutter free. Menu and navigation is also good so as support. Only drawback is sometimes scan takes longer which I feel so can be reduced

    Extremely easy to use. Once we had a good idea of how it worked we had it up and running in about 2 weeks. It did take us nearly 9 months to get it installed and fully operational on all users endpoints that needed it. My admin on the team that runs the software loves it.

    Checkmarx is easier to integrate with development tools and gives quick feedback during coding, which is helpful for developers. Veracode is more focused on scanning and reporting for compliance, but it’s more complex to set up. We chose Checkmarx because it fits better into our development process, offering faster scans and more useful suggestions for fixing problems

    ME has many more applications that are in the database that will work. The cost was also much cheaper that is until we confronted the other vendor about us finding another product. At that point it was too late. We own other ME products and have found success in all of them

    • This product will help us better secure our environment. That alone is a huge cost savings
    • We have allowed users that were admins to still be able to install some software on their endpoints without having admin rights on the whole endpoint
    • This product has woke up some in the department to look for applications that do not require admin rights.
