Black duck is certainly an industry leader in open source scanning primarily due to the fact that it is simpler to use and hence eliminate majority open source vulnerabilities and bugs and licensing issues.

4/5
What do you like best about Black Duck SCA?

Black duck serves as a good platform to identify third party software risk factors. It can be easily integrated as of part of CI/CD tools to scan security, license risk etc. It shows the exact break up of all the risky components of the binaries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Black Duck SCA?

It's very strict in compliance check so during upgradation of third party software it is diffcult to ignore some of the risks. But that shows how efficient Black duck software is. Also, using open source software creates license risks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very basic UI"
2.5/5
What do you like best about Black Duck SCA?

Comprehensive analysis. It does a good job finding everything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Black Duck SCA?

The output sucks, there's no comprehensive reports or nice UI or anything. It's all very basic/raw. They expect you to take all that raw information and make your own "pretty" reports with it, they have no product that can do that nor do they have any recommendations on 3rd party vendors that will do it.

What do you dislike about Black Duck SCA?

I am fully satisfied with this software but I would say its reporting should be improved and it should have more preferable API experience. Another con is that users have to face difficulties while installing this software. Because of billing model, this application seems to be quite expensive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Describe the project or task Black Duck SCA helped with:

Scanning project for known vulnerabilities in the known 3rd party libraries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Black Duck SCA?

It gives you the information about security issues and licence constraints of known 3rd party libraries your project is using. Usually you don't have control or knowledge over all 3rd party libraries used in your project it is crucial to know whether current version has any kind of issues (security or licence). Having a tool to give you this information is a next level of quality of your product. It also suggests the update version with no known issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
