About Company
Company Description
Mission-critical, custom-built applications are becoming incredibly difficult to adapt to the ever-evolving needs of the business, to the point where it’s hardly possible for humans to keep up. CAST technology automatically ‘understands’ custom-built software systems and provides insights into their inner workings, with MRI-like precision. It augments the human capacity to help software owners maintain, enhance, modernize these applications with speed and confidence. Resulting from well over $200 million of R&D, CAST software is used and promoted by hundreds of companies, top management consultancies, the 10 largest system integrators, and all three major cloud vendors.

Performance of CAST Highlight Across Market Features
CAST Highlight Likes & Dislikes
The possibility to have a comparison of all the applications in the portfolio
Easy to use and extensive configurations
The fact that the product deep-dives into the application codebase and doesn't just focus on file by file analysis. Also, I LOVE the architectural views provided by the (currently) server-side thick-client capabilities.
Handling of user and campaign is a bit tricky at first
None
Underlying implementation of the product is difficult to stand up, get working, and resolve issues. Too much of the beneficial capabilities that app teams would like are server-side-only, thick-client capabilities (though that looks to be changing next year).

Application provides great value, needs a LOT more work in product implementation
We're still new to the product, but the information and analytics provided by the product are very useful and we're looking forward to doing more with it. In general, any problems we've had with the product have been due to how the product has been implemented under the covers. (Difficult to configure - especially for new applications, issues with authentication/entitlement setup, the need for absolute filename paths to ensure an app is handled the same way when analyzed from one iteration to the next, failure to run things through an English-speaking editor before publishing to the dashboards, etc.) So while the product provides great value, it's been way more problematic to implement than it should have been. - Director of IT Services1B-10B USDIT ServicesReview Source
Analytics and Dashboards Valued, Auto-Discovery of Applications Not Supported
Its a complete tool. in general is too easy to use. However is not possible to auto-discovery applications - Project Management50M-1B USDTelecommunicationReview Source
Rapidité du scan appréciée mais complexité d’interface et coût élevé soulignés
L outil fournit une bonne vision d'ensemble de la qualité applicative et des risques (securité, move to cloud...) LEs points forts resident dans la rapidité du scan et l analyse. Il y a de l interpretation à faire avec une connaissance nécessaire mais l outil permet de prioriser les actions car il reste parfois de tres haut niveau
