    I recommend it for companies that use several programming languages, as it supports several languages ​​such as Java, Javascript, Python, among others. However, for companies that use only one programming language, there are specific tools for each language that can be more complete in this scenario. I do not recommend it for companies that only use open source software, in which case there are other tools available.

    Cons
    Codacy
    • There should be customization to get code quality for your own projects if standards are provided.
    • Offline or a standalone application is much needed from Codacy to get local support.
    • Spots a lot of errors and small ones that don't affect much about quality and are de-facto standards.

    • It can have a FAQ session in the Application itself.
    • It can recommend the fix for the error that occurred during the scan.
    • Like its storing multiple manuals explore, It should have the capability of storing multiple logins.

    Even though it is paid while SonarQube is free, we chose Codacy because it is simpler to configure and maintain the implemented rules. In addition, it offers support for the main programming languages ​​on the market, ensuring that we can continue to use it if we want to use other languages ​​in new products.

    Both solutions are decent, however, I had team members who had the experience working with HCL AppScan. Also, the product was priced nominally which suited our budget. Further, HCL AppScan's user community was bigger and many learning resources were freely available which helped junior peers learn quickly and eliminate any issues

    • There are countless implementations to accomplish the same thing, and so many configurations are required.
    • Even if you test it finished and find no vulnerabilities, there is no point if you just get the error screen.
    • Until now, I was worried about vulnerabilities and security in software development, but I think it was good to find the vulnerability problem quickly with HCL AppScan.

    HCL AppScan Screenshots

    Screenshot of Cloud Security: AppScan will scan Docker containers and container images to ensure that third party components have not introduced vulnerabilities to an application. Software composition analysis (SCA) tools help organizations inventory third-party commercial and open source components used within their software to understand which components and versions are being used and to identify security vulnerabilities affecting those components.Screenshot of API Testing: This dangerous attack vector can be secured by identifying vulnerable third-party components, automating and integrating API testing and detecting issues in the IDE.Screenshot of Auto Issue Correlation: AppScan leverages three technologies (DAST, SAST, IAST) to enrich results, validate fixes and reduce the number remediation tasks by grouping issues together.Screenshot of 30+ Code Languages Supported: HCL AppScan offers an extensive list of supported code languages.
