it is very good in finding bugs and has lack of recompilation which is also a good thing, error messages is also nice and the best thing is it is for free Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

sometimes it is too slow and also its range of robustness could have been increased. Also it could have been made more interactive and the external sinks are also hard to use Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
