What do you dislike about NowSecure?

I've encountered some minor challenges with the application advanced assessments. In some instances, the platform failed to complete an assessment leading to partial results/reports. However, that gets resolved after running two or three more assessments. Overall, I highly recommend NowSecure to any organization looking to bolster their mobile application security and mitigate potential risks effectively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Also, the new app monitoring feature recently released by NowSecure gives us the ability to run an assessment on an app once a new build release is deployed or continuously monitor it for new versions on the app store. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"iOS SAST @ Finance Scale Up"

4/5

What do you like best about NowSecure?

- Detailed reports; the tool covers our SAST needs for app scanning resolutely. Once packaged correctly and the scans have finished, we couldn't ask for a more detailed / covering report.

- Customer Service; Engaging and attentive.

Bluntly put, our iOS app is a core part of our product offering, and NowSecure helps us ensure quality and security of this. As is standard practice, we've integrated this into our build and release cycles, and its not playing an important part in improving our security posture. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about NowSecure?

- Integrations could use improvement (e.g., greater CLI support) - worth noting the team are actively working on that and have been engaging with us directly for feedback.

- Scans take a little while to run, but again, so do many of the other tools on the market so this isn't a show stopper. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

NowSecure is part of our SDLC process. Every time we release an app, we perform an assessment using NowSecure against common application vulnerabilities. Evaluation provides us independent insight into our application and any risk areas, so we can mitigate accordingly. We are more confident about app security than before. Their support is very responsive and helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I do not see any major dislikes. Adding multiple projects and sharing files in the portal UI can be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"NowSecure for Mobile Scanning Automation"

4/5

What do you like best about NowSecure?

NowSecure helps to run automated scans across a large portfolio of applications. My company has 100s of mobile apps and manually pen testing each one would take tons of resources. Using NowSecure we are able to automate a lot of the scanning and save the manual pen tests for the critical flows that require human intervention. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about NowSecure?

There is significant time needed to get a tenant set up and sometimes custom scripting of login flows can be challenging Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
