Overall Satisfaction with Codacy
We use Codacy integrated with GitHub to create and maintain the company's coding standards. We take advantage of the flexibility to create specific rules according to the particularities of each team. The main perceived benefit was the reduction of bugs and syntax problems, as well as the standardization of the code, making it easier to read and understand.
- Detailed reports that provide feedback for managers to analyze the main code problems, whether performance, security or standardization deviations
- Real-time code analysis, ensuring productivity and code quality
- Integration with the main version control tools on the market
- Customizing code analysis settings is complex at first
- It's a paid tool, for those who really want to make the most of it to improve and standardize the code. For those who want a superficial use, the free options on the market will do.
- Real-time code analysis
- Integration with major version control tools and major programming languages
- Customization of rules according to the needs of each team
- Higher development performance, enabling the evolution of more projects simultaneously
- Improved code quality, decreasing support calls, which can now focus on continuous systems improvement
- Greater evolution for new developers on the team, who learn the company's software coding standards faster
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.
