Has good stability and availability of comprehensive documentation
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
The platform is simple, easy to use, and easy to learn. It has comprehensive guidelines and a lot of documents and videos for an easy installation process. Apart from some default rules, it allows users to configure their own rules. Also, it is easy to configure as it has an extensive library for reference.
What needs improvement?
The product's pricing could be more flexible. At present, we have to buy an entire instance. Instead, they could introduce a pricing model based on specific requirements.
For how long have I used the solution?
We have been using Codebashing for three to four years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The platform has good stability.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Codebashing's cloud version might be more scalable than the on-premise version.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup process is easy. It takes little time to complete for new users as well. However, it might take time if the infrastructure still needs to be implemented.
What other advice do I have?
Sometimes, Codebashing provides reports with false positives. Thus, I advise others not to rely on the reports and to do a thorough analysis. They may require to change a few configurations. Configuring your own rules is better than going for a default configuration.
I rate it an eight out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
On-premises

Overall UI/UX and lots of training problems on almost all the major coding languages makes this platform must to try for coding lovers.

An easy-to-use tool to identify false positives or flag any medium to high-risk outcomes
What is our primary use case?
The solution mainly aims to identify false positives or flag any medium to high-risk outcomes, meaning it is mainly for source codes.
What is most valuable?
The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that its gamification UI is quite user-friendly to use, and it is also quite intuitive since it provides users with proper explanations while allowing one to opt for the obash option. Mapping is also quite accurate, which helps identify why the tool has flagged certain code or lines of code, making it helpful for users because sometimes you might be unable to detect the flaws on your own.
What needs improvement?
The tool can be a little more intuitive for the end users. It isn't a very friendly tool for beginners. In our company, we have to take training courses to learn how to use the platform. Introducing automation and making the tool a little more intuitive for businesses might be helpful.
In our company, we need to take care of the tool's regular updates since, often, the solution may be down. My company has a business administration unit team that is responsible for the updation of tools we use, and their processes can take a day or two to be completed, because of which we may lose out on some time when we may have required the tool to do a complete scan. It would be helpful if the update process can be made faster.
If I make use of the integration capabilities of Codebashing, then the plug-ins won't work as smoothly as it does in the application itself. Maybe the solution's plug-ins can be improved.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Codebashing for three years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
If I use Codebashing as a standalone tool, then I don't face any stability issues, but issues arise when I try to use its integration capabilities. If you want to integrate Codebashing with Jenkins or run automated scans, I face some issues with its integration part.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
I think that the solution has a few plug-ins on different cloud platforms, making it a scalable product.
Between 50 to 100 people in my organization use the solution.
How are customer service and support?
The solution's technical support is good. My company has been able to resolve issues related to the tool with the help of Codebashing's technical support team. I rate the technical support a seven or eight out of ten.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I have experience with AppScan and RiskSense. I was using AppScan to support DAST and RiskSense for getting results from SAST and DAST to generate reports. I was using different solutions for different reasons, but I think they provide different benefits to users. My company chose CheckMarx over AppScan since the former offers better source code scanning capabilities.
How was the initial setup?
The installation phase of the tool is simple.
The tool's installation phase took around 45 minutes.
The tool's installation phase was carried out by a team of 17 people in my company who use Checkmarx.
The solution is deployed on the cloud.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
As a developer, though I am unaware of the cost of the solution, the product is expensive since I faced some trouble upgrading to Python for Codebashing.
What other advice do I have?
The solution is easy to maintain.
I think Codebashing is a great tool to start with if you are just learning about application security. Codebashing has some good tutorials and a nice learning platform to learn about coding. Codebashing also has a more nice gamification UI, which is a good tool. Generally, I think it's quite a good tool for developers to get started and pick up skills.
I rate the overall solution an eight and a half to nine out of ten.
