Glad that you appreciate the value of CAST Imaging, Victor! Thank you for your review.

In addition to the use cases you mentioned, CAST Imaging is also great at identifying and showing you in context the most critical structural flaws in your application, as per ISO 5055 standards (in terms of performance, reliability, security).

All the best!

"Packed with information on apps and supports OpenAI integrations, learning curve is worth it."

4.5/5

What do you like best about CAST Imaging?

As a Java enthusiast, probably the Microservice or Service view where you can see how a modular application works and which parts it has. As the main undertaker of modernization/migrations efforts for third parties, the App with App dependency overview is also very useful to check and lets you review the network architecture and helps preserving it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CAST Imaging?

It is not always easy to get the higher ups to approve the installation of foreign package such as those needed to scan the applications internally, also the learning curve for thi software suite is high. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is CAST Imaging solving and how is that benefiting you?

Extended debugging and teaching us how older applications which have actual convoluted code work. Not every application had been developed with best practices by 2004, and design standards weren't established, which makes this software really useful when analyzing legacy code. We can liberate our older staff which isn't always available and reduce the cognitive load of the app reviewers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We can make the project blue print quickly with CAST application such as various graphs for show relationship between objects, tables, classes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CAST Imaging?

After making documentation such as views we cannot export in better options. We can download SVG but there is also a limit of zooming. So if there is anyway we can download Views(with readable texts) then we can show our clients documentation more easy and simple way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
