## SOOS Reviews
  ### 1. Awesome tool for detecting vulnerabilities within project dependecies

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Nayan C. | DevOps Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 23, 2023

**What do you like best about SOOS?**

Easy UI to manage the projects to detect the vulnerabilities in dependencies. Easy project on-boarding process and good integration with DevOps tool chain like Azure DevOps.

**What do you dislike about SOOS?**

The major downside we've seen till now is how to display the vulnerabilities along with the recommendations to resolve them. Apart from it the sign-in process is not comfortable. 1 more point which just recently added is the ability of scanning in async manner (which was good old process). All the current scans gets complete in sync manner which results into increasing the build time of the code.

**What problems is SOOS solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Majorly Soos is helping us in detecting the vulnerabilities within our project's dependencies right away from the DevOps toolchain during the compilation phase. Apart from it the recommendations are also very useful.

**Official Response from Becca Newton:**

> Hi Nayan - we really appreciate you taking the time to provide feedback on your experience with SOOS.  We hear you on the sign-in process, and are working to make that more seamless.  Please don't hesitate to reach out with any additional comments.  Feedback from our users is what continues to drive the product forward!

  ### 2. Reliable Tool That’s Grown Into Enterprise Use

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Yulian R. | SysAdmin - Compliance, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 07, 2023

**What do you like best about SOOS?**

One thing we’ve continued to like about SOOS is how easy it is to keep running without constant attention. The GitHub integration works smoothly, weekly scans run reliably, and developers get clear visibility into vulnerabilities and license issues as they come up.

Setup stayed simple, the Vanta integration remains low-effort, and support was helpful when we needed guidance on plans and rollout. Overall, it’s been easy to maintain as part of our normal development workflow without slowing teams down.

**What do you dislike about SOOS?**

While the platform has worked well overall, there are a few areas where SOOS could improve:
	1.	Documentation and best-practice guidance — some advanced use cases and tuning options could be explained more clearly to help teams onboard faster without trial and error.
	2.	Developer-facing remediation context — adding more actionable guidance or examples directly in findings would further speed up fixes.
	3.	Reporting flexibility — more customization options for exports and summaries would be useful for sharing status with different stakeholders.

**What problems is SOOS solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Staying up to date with Soos alerts has made our development team be aware and more attentive to vulnerabilities and licensing.

**Official Response from Kaitlyn Booth:**

> Hi Yulian!

Thank you so much for taking your time to leave us a review and share your impressions of our SCA and DAST offerings!

I am very happy to hear that you found the set up process for SOOS to be hassle free and your team is now easily monitoring and fixing vulnerabilities and license issues and it is great to hear you are leveraging our Vanta integration!

I’m also thrilled to hear our Customer Support played such a crucial role in your decision to add SOOS to your cybersecurity toolkit.  We strive to provide Customer Support that is the best in the business and we're always happy to hear any feedback, ideas, or feature requests you may have.

All the best,
Kaitlyn

  ### 3. SOOS SCA

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Pavan P. | DevOps Admin, Health, Wellness and Fitness, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 22, 2022

**What do you like best about SOOS?**

Dash Board Scan Reports User-friendly Configurations

**What do you dislike about SOOS?**

This SOOS billing has frequent changes; these types of changes will lose customers.

**What problems is SOOS solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Scanning Source Code Vulnerabilities and keeping our Application and Source Code Secure.

**Official Response from Becca Newton:**

> Pavan - Thank you for your review of SOOS!  We appreciate the support and feedback.  

  ### 4. SooS offers everything that my teams need in a great easy-to-use package.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software

**Reviewed Date:** December 10, 2025

**What do you like best about SOOS?**

The product is easy to use, with no-surprises pricing and the support is awesome!

**What do you dislike about SOOS?**

Nothing that I can think of. They've been a great partner!

**What problems is SOOS solving and how is that benefiting you?**

SaaS is fully integrated with our CI/CD pipeline and provides us with full-cycle security analysis of our codebase in real time.

  ### 5. Effective License and Vulnerability Management

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Brallan G. | Site Reliability Engineer (SRE), Computer Software, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 14, 2024

**What do you like best about SOOS?**

What I like most is that the integration of our pipelines with SOOS has been a great help in maintaining constant analysis, especially as our application evolves and new dependencies are added. Continuous monitoring has streamlined our efforts to proactively fix vulnerabilities and licensing issues that arise on a day-to-day basis. Additionally, SOOS has been instrumental in meeting the rigorous standards required for some certifications, improving both our compliance and security practices.

**What do you dislike about SOOS?**

I think SOOS should put more effort into advanced reporting options. It would be incredibly useful to have reports with customizable filters and detailed grouping options, such as listing projects that share a specific vulnerability or organizing projects by team. These features would greatly improve visibility and make it easier to prioritize and manage vulnerabilities across different projects.

**What problems is SOOS solving and how is that benefiting you?**

SOOS has played a key role in our certification processes, by providing essential testing tools that streamline compliance requirements. The integration with Vanta has further simplified our workflow by centralizing platform information, making it much easier to monitor, track, and maintain compliance across our systems.

**Official Response from Emily Peden:**

> We're glad to hear that SOOS has been helpful in maintaining constant analysis and streamlining your efforts to proactively fix vulnerabilities and licensing issues. We appreciate your feedback on advanced reporting options and are actively working on new and improved dashboards and additional reports.  

Please reach out to support@soos.io if you have additional requirements that we can consider for our roadmap and continued improvements.

  ### 6. Fantastic Application

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer & Network Security | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 31, 2025

**What do you like best about SOOS?**

Pretty much everything. No complaints on anything.

**What do you dislike about SOOS?**

Nothing as such. Liked everything about it

**What problems is SOOS solving and how is that benefiting you?**

API security

**Official Response from Emily Peden:**

> We're thrilled to hear that you're enjoying SOOS and that it's meeting your needs for API security. Thank you for your positive feedback!

  ### 7. Soos is a Fantastic Overall Security Platform

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Brad W. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 10, 2024

**What do you like best about SOOS?**

Out of all of the security tools we have tried, Soos is by far the best platform for we have used for many reasons. The UI is thoughtfully constructed, making it simple to understand our vulnerabilities and create tickets to address them. Their integration with Github Actions is well executed, which makes it insanely easy to integrate with our CI and have tests written up exactly how we want them ans have them running within minutes. Another thing that has been great about Soos is their support and their team. They respond quickly to help with any issues, and always have thoughtful and useful replies. Soos's team also listens to this feedback to continuously add new features and make the experience better.

**What do you dislike about SOOS?**

I can't think of many downsides. Any problem we have had in the past has been addressed quickly by their Support and Engineering Team. I have never had that kind of experience with Security companies in the past, but the Soos team seems to really enjoy meeting/working with the people that use their platform.

**What problems is SOOS solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We were looking for a tool that could combine our DAST and SCA testing into one tool, that could easily integrate into the other tools we used. Soos did this perfectly while at its foundation also being a really great security tool itself that is easy for both setting up the tests and getting started, and for engineers to use to be alerted to vulnerabilties and quickly fix them.

**Official Response from Kaitlyn Booth:**

> Hi Brad, 

We're so glad you appreciate the T.L.C form our support and dev teams!  You definitely hit the nail on the head, we truly love meeting our customers and working together to improve our platform.

Best,
Kaitlyn
