Codacy
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.

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.

Coverity Static Analysis (SAST) has wide coverage in terms of Owasp Top 10 vulnerabilities, various types of languages, backward integration. While other tools offer similar experience of code scanning, coverity helps in pointed recommendations for quick closure of vulnerabilities. The historical analysis of vulnerabilities is a good value add in understanding which type of code and which language is better in improving cyber security maturity.
