## Reviews

### "Blackduck - One stop solution for automated vulnerability assessment for 3rd party components." — 5.0/5

> **Gaurav** | *6 November 2025* | Medical Devices | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Integration is very easy . You can use cicd pipelines to integrate Blackduck and hisft left in SDLC for that increased security
> 
> **Cons**: Reporting can be improved . Embargo vulnerabilites (potential ones) dont get updated with CVE scores easily.
> 
> Superb . Gives you all vulnerabilities in your third party components which you can discover and remediate increasing your overall security exposures.

### "Robust & highly featured, great product - just a challenging time deploying" — 5.0/5

> **Sam** | *13 January 2025* | Airlines/Aviation | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Great insight into software security, coverage is excellent - in my opinion the best product out there and easily integratable at scale.
> 
> **Cons**: On-premise can be very difficult to setup, huge amounts of data that requires lot of bandwidth to quickly download, and a lot of processing to unpack and setup. Cloud solution a possible consideration.
> 
> Overall, great product. Does what it's purpose is, and does it well. Only comment is on-premise is a difficult process to setup.

### "Great software which I believe in, but not a pain free experience." — 3.0/5

> **Pete** | *26 July 2017* | Banking | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ability to detect open source vulnerabilities in our code.  Pre-sales contact \&amp; support was good (demo, trial etc).  Clean interface.  Performance improved in v4.0.0.
> 
> **Cons**: Difficult installation process, made more complicated with the introduction of Docker in v4.0.0 \&amp; with introduction of mandatory SSL/TLS web server certificate which requires troubleshooting trust issues.  Support team are reluctant to pick up the phone or enter into telephone support, with sporadic email communication being the favoured option.  Some gaps in documentation.  Why is there no pre-built Black Duck Hub virtual appliance that I can drop into VMware?  No documentation for implementing with vSphere Integrated Containers (VIC), only documentation for Docker \&amp; Openshift.  Reporting improvements still to be made.

### "Black Duck - The goto tool for Software Composition Analysis" — 5.0/5

> **Sharique** | *11 August 2021* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: An updated vulnerability list and ease of Maintainance and administration are the key features of the tool. Moreover, its a breeze to integrate with various CI/CD toolsets ensuring a great DevSecOps practice
> 
> **Cons**: I guess in general DevSecOps is still a recent phenomenon and developers and engineers need to get themselves well acquainted with such security concepts
> 
> Excellent experience starting from the concept phase, evaluation phase and then later the complete implementation. Its a great tool in the domain of security and a must have
