Staff Engineer Computer & Network Security Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "A Cool and Useful Product that Needs a Bit More Work" February 16, 2019 4.0 Code Quality is hard to maintain with ever-increasing team sizes, so we're attempting to use Codacy to scan our code, find issues, and tag them before they get merged into the repository. So far the in-line explanations with the issues that Codacy has tagged have been well received and developers like the context these provide. We need to do some significant tuning to adjust the Signal To Noise ratio, but it's growing more useful daily. Pros The ability to customize patterns and see grades for Projects and individual files are key to this software. It's a great alternative to Code Climate. It has an on-prem solution that was a requirement for our team, and thus far it has been well received and well reviewed by our teams. Cons The enterprise (on-prem) solution is expensive (2.5x more expensive than the hosted license per seat). Additionally the support team is very slow to respond, often responding more than 24 hours later and missing questions in the original email. They're friendly and helpful if you can get them on a video conference, but the email support leaves much to be desired. Review Source GK Graeme K. CTO Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Codacy and Pulse. A great product for Engineering teams that want to deliver robust software quickly" November 29, 2022 4.0 Excellent, a great product with great support. We use this as part of a Whole Ecosystem view. It would be great if there was integrations with Vanta and Jupiter One to close the security and quality loop, however I proposed this and it the response was positive. Pros \- Excellent Support and Customer Service- Easy to Use- Quick to Set Up- Educates Developers and keeps the code reviews functional.- Frees up Senior Resources to add value instead of arguing about casing and low level standards Cons The On Prem Version had a number of issues on Azure, however the SaaS version doesn't suffer from these stability issues and is very performant Review Source Igo L. Lead Front-End Engineer Retail Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Ensure Code Quality & Standards" October 30, 2020 5.0 Pros \- The ability to ensure we are following our standards; - Highlight duplicated code - See the progress of fixing the issues Cons \- Not being able to export code patterns Alternatives considered [SonarQube](https://www.capterra.com/p/210481/SonarQube/) Review Source AJ Ankit J. RPA developer Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best for Code reviews" March 28, 2019 5.0 Pros \- Code review and checkup - Continuous evaluation and grading of your work Cons Session expires if you do not login on routine checkups Review Source AB Amir B. CTO Retail Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Super easy to setup" July 1, 2020 5.0 pretty seamless Pros Just takes a few mins to set up, and you start getting reports on a wide variety of languages. Leaves comments on PR's for you Cons some more control over the rules in the java set would be nice. Reason for choosing Codacy sonar is annoying to maintain Review Source Sandra W.

Instead of having to manually check for code style, best practices, code security, common errors etc. Codacy detects those automatically for you. The most important informations being the impact in code quality of the recent commits and pull requests. Review Source Shivani S. R and D analyst Warehousing Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Code Evaluation and Rating" March 28, 2019 5.0 Most of the projects and code we write is in Jupyter notebook. Thus we have to add python code seperately so as to get evaluated. Pros It is better when you work overnight and make a coding development on which you are proud of. There comes codacy where you can rate the quality of your code. Real time updates makes it more fit. Cons Pricing is quite high and codacy disconnects your repository when not in use.
