Unified dashboard has simplified managing multiple scanners and improved vulnerability remediation
The best feature and biggest benefit of the product is the ability to manage different scanners from a single dashboard. Regarding analytics capability, Kondukto provides actionable insights into security needs because it performs all the work on the customer's behalf. It checks findings and vulnerabilities from different scanners, confirms that all findings are matched together, and makes it clear and confident that the final finding is truly a vulnerability requiring action. Regarding automation features, Kondukto is fully automated and fully integrated with a plug and play approach. In terms of integration with DevOps pipelines, the benefit is that Kondukto itself is not an integration tool. The DAST tool is integrated, and I can manage the scanner. The tool itself, whether it is DAST or SAST, will be integrated with DevOps and other tools like notification tools, SIEM, and SOC. The scanner tool itself will be managed under Kondukto, but Kondukto does not provide integration. There is no need because the scanner itself will integrate with other tools.

Context-aware code analysis has reduced noise and now improves developer experience with actionable security findings
I have consistently observed that their scan time is an issue for mono repos. Sometimes with their AI-based scanning, when you triage that scan, the scan never completes or finishes(, which makes it difficult. Another consistent issue is that whenever you have a new repo to onboard to the platform, the tool ideally should detect the master branch by default. However, sometimes the tool fails to identify it and will never scan it unless manually somebody looks into it and fixes the issue. Although their support team is really good, this issue was present six or eight months ago during the POC and is still present now. If it is affecting multiple customers, it should be prioritized and fixed. I would say that their integration aspects could have been improved. I see a lot of different security solutions that provide flexibility to the security teams based on Jira project, team divisions, Slack, and all those can be very much easily customized. Semgrep needs to work on the enhancement of their notification capabilities. Currently, they are working on identifying business logic vulnerabilities or privilege escalation vulnerabilities by looking at the code, and they should continue to focus on and improve this effort. Regarding stability, whenever you have a mono-repo which is a very large repository, the scan never finishes or the scan never kicks in. At that time, you have to reach out to the support team and ask them to expand the resources in the back end to fix it. This is an issue I keep seeing often on that platform.

"I give Semgrep a six out of 10 simply because there are other tools that are better than this out there."
"Semgrep could be improved by offering more granular configuration options for custom rule tuning and reducing memory overhead during large scale repository scans."
"There should be more information on how to acquire the system, catering to beginners in application security, to make it more user-friendly."

"The features could be enhanced with better documentation and more user-friendly interfaces for beginners."
"Regarding improvements for Semgrep, I have noticed that it occasionally provides false positive results, although it does not happen consistently."
"However, as a tool it is really complex to maintain and to use, and it has a huge price tag."
