Combined with Code Compare and running Review Assistant on the TFS server, it provides a good way to share code and comments amount our team. It does everything we need it to do for code reviews and has a reporting tool.

Pros
  • Review Assistant does everything that I was hoping the default Visual Studio reviews would do. The iterations through accept/reject were the key winner.
  • The functionality for code reviews is great, especially the ability to comment on specific lines of code.
  • You don't have to leave the IDE.

  • 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.

Developer-Centric Design


Snyk integrates seamlessly into the dev workflow (IDEs, Git, CI/CD).


Tools like Veracode/Fortify are security team-centric, with less developer engagement.


Unlike WhiteSource or Sonatype, Snyk has a faster learning curve and actionable fixes.

  • The API is extensive enough for many integration options.
  • API keys are rotated on a non-preferred time schedule. There's no way to configure this.
  • We had a great experience with the support team and success managers while setting up the product and onboarding projects into the tool
