Overall Satisfaction with Snyk

Snyk is an integral part of our development process. It is fully integrated into our deployment process to ensure that Snyk scans any new code to identify security issues. We trust this tool to support our effort for clean and secure code. It is sometimes verbose but almost always correct on issues it identifies or areas of concern.
  • Identify potential security issues.
  • Analyse library dependencies.
  • Secure code as it is written close to development.
  • Setting up is complex and when not do no properly provides too many false positives.
  • We use another tool in parallel because it does not cover all of our languages especially for older code that is in mixed languages.
  • Integrating it with bitbucket was not straight forward.
  • Snyk Code.
  • Snyk open source.
  • Positive impact with cleaner and more secure code coming out.
  • Reduction of defects.
  • Reduction of time to fix defects.
I use both as they combine together well.

Snyk is a good tool to give you some confidence in the quality and security of your code. There is always old code; no matter how much teams would like to get rid of it, it is not easy or cost-effective most times. Snyk struggles a bit with old monoliths and services and complex code with sometimes very old libraries.
