Decision method
Run a representative evaluation
A marketing table cannot establish accuracy or operational fit. Use the same repositories, changes, and acceptance criteria for both products.
- 01
Define the sample
Include supported languages, monorepos, generated files, dependencies, IaC, and provider workflows you actually use.
- 02
Record expected evidence
Create a reviewed set of security and quality cases before comparing detections. Keep unknown cases separate.
- 03
Test failure paths
Exercise timeouts, partial analyzer coverage, provider delivery failures, exclusions, and custom-rule resolution.
- 04
Compare total operation
Measure setup, triage time, reviewer acceptance, gate reliability, and your actual Snyk quote.
