Black Duck Software Composition Analysis tool comes with a high price tag and a minimum developer plan, which may not fit many small software companies.
1. The UX is a bit dated and not the most intuitive to use. 2. Deployment is hard to manage. HA requires two full stack deployments. Also, the product is only released quarterly, hence a lot of vulnerabilities in the product itself can't be patched in a timely manner. 3. Tend to have many bugs in every version.
The reporting bug that they've had in the product for about 4 releases now. We have mitigated the issues and yet they still appear as open, which leads to a misleading status.
