FOSSA
The only issue we have had is sometimes the web app is too slow, and that causes issues with us wanting to continue to use FOSSA over going with another tool. That is the only problem. I noticed it happened more recently, but if that is solved now or will be solved, I would 100% recommend this tool to anyone!

Well suited for organizations with small application security team as the solution scales and is easy for devs to use. The only choice if you develop in Java as their data is the most accurate.

  • Hard to measure the ROI, but no doubt having licenses be above board is fantastic for protection of your software.
  • Caused developers to make more informed decisions.
