"Exceptional Hands-On Training Platform with Outstanding Support"
5/5
What do you like best about SecureFlag?

In my experience as an Application Security Architect responsible for running a secure coding training program, I find SecureFlag to be an exceptional platform for enterprise-level developer education. It delivers a hands-on, real-world learning experience where developers actively work in realistic coding environments to identify and fix vulnerabilities rather than passively watching videos or taking quizzes. I use its flexible features to build and customize learning paths tailored to specific teams, technologies, and skill levels. The platform’s detailed progress tracking and gamified elements, such as leaderboards and tournaments, keep developers motivated and make it easy to measure the program's performance. SecureFlag’s customer support team is exceptional, providing expert guidance and proactive assistance to ensure the program’s success from implementation through ongoing management. Overall, SecureFlag empowers me to run a secure coding training program that is practical, scalable, and highly effective across the organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SecureFlag?

While SecureFlag is effective, it doesn’t address every challenge that can arise in a secure coding training program. It offers a solid foundation for secure coding education, but the initial setup can feel overly complex, particularly when establishing the training framework and defining organizational goals. The process demands thoughtful planning, customization, and ongoing commitment to ensure alignment with real-world development practices. Without that sustained effort, the training risks becoming a static compliance exercise rather than a dynamic, integrated component of a company’s secure development lifecycle.

"Great platform to learn secure development"
4.5/5
What do you like best about SecureFlag?

SecureFlag platform is one of the most effective and developer friendly solutions we've used for secure coding training. What sets it apart is the hands on learning approach that lets developers fix real vulnerabilities in realistic environments. So it's not just theory, it's practical and relevant with real word examples.

The platform supports a wide variety of programming languages and frameworks, which makes it easy to train diverse development teams without needing multiple tools. Gamification features like progress tracking, achievements, and leaderboards keep engagement high and encourage continuous learning. Tournaments are also fun and engaging.

From an administrative standpoint, it's simple to set up. Assigning modules, creating learning paths, and tracking progress is straightforward, and the reporting features give a clear view of how individuals and teams are progressing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SecureFlag?

While some learning paths are really well covered, some not so popular languages do not have a large selection of labs. The positive side is that content gets added frequently and more and more things

It would be helpful to have additional options for exporting reports and access to more detailed analytics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great developer training platform"
5/5
What do you like best about SecureFlag?

The Secure Flag platform has allowed us to easily deliver high quality secure development training to our engineers. The educational materials they deliver are first class and the hands-on experience it provides are way better than other solutions on the market we've tried.

As a regulated business in the financial services sector, the security of our applications is something we take very seriously, and we are confident that we are equipping our engineers with the best training to keep our customers and our business safe.

The onboarding process was easy, and the team we dealt with (shout out to Christian!) were super helpful - even now, still checking in to make sure everything is going well. Now that we've been enrolled with them for around 6 months I can say that we're still getting great service and care from our customer success manager Naveen, and our account manager Carla.

What do you dislike about SecureFlag?

The management dashboard isn't the most intuitive, but they have instruction materials available it's ok once you get the hang of it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Secure Coding training that is very effective for software development teams"
5/5
What do you like best about SecureFlag?

SecureFlag is very effective at providing the Secure Coding training for our development teams.

As a company we are required to provide this training to all our software developers, and SecureFlag has been the most popular platform within our development teams. We have positive feedback about SecureFlag which compares very favourably with feedback from other secure coding platforms tried before.

There are many things to like about SecureFlag, a couple of these are:

- it is easy for developers to appreciate the relevance and importance of the training

- the ThreatCanvas threat modeling tool is very good indeed

and there are other reasons for appreciating what SecureFlag offer, not least the excellent customer support.

To sum up, we are pleased with secureFlag and value the service it provides. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SecureFlag?

There is nothing to dislike about SecureFlag.

When we first introduced the training to our development teams there was some feedback about too many notifications, but this was easily reconfigured to a level that they liked. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Secureflag is a great an engaging tool which really benefits every developer."
5/5
What do you like best about SecureFlag?

The hands-on labs, where an unsafe situation can be "re-lived" by the developer and then mediated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SecureFlag?

In seldom cases (usually code review labs) the criteria for a successful completion on the first try are hard to be met. But this is really very seldom. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
