How does Snyk pricing compare with p4ndora?

Snyk prices by usage. Free includes 100 Snyk Code tests a month and Team 1,000. Team covers up to 10 contributing developers, counted by commits in the last 90 days. Beyond that, Enterprise is bought in credits per active contributor per day. The more you push and the more people commit, the more you count.

p4ndora prices the repository. Continuous costs $499.50 a month and includes unlimited scans, every push checked and automatic fixes, whatever the size of the code base and however many people work on it. There is no quota to watch and no overage to explain.

Should you choose Snyk or p4ndora?

Choose Snyk if

  • Your developers want results in the editor and the command line
  • You need container and infrastructure scanning in the same tool
  • You need Scala, Apex or COBOL covered

Choose p4ndora if

  • You want unlimited scans without counting tests
  • You want one price per repository, not per developer
  • Your code is on GitLab and you have no enterprise contract
  • You want fixes opened as pull requests, not only alerts
  • You want proof for every finding, down to the line

Why choose p4ndora over Snyk?

Most small teams do not need a security platform. They need to know what is wrong in their code and how to fix it. With p4ndora you connect a repository, start a scan and get a result you can act on. Every finding is rated and traced to the exact lines, and fixes are drafted for you.

GitLab teams gain the most. Snyk lists its GitLab integration for Enterprise plans only. p4ndora reads gitlab.com and self-managed GitLab on every plan, the same way it reads GitHub.

The bill follows your product, not your head count or your commit rate. A repository costs the same whether two people commit to it or twenty, and whether they push once a week or fifty times a day.

What does a p4ndora finding look like?

  1. What is at stake. A rating from critical to low, a CVSS estimate and the CWE of the weakness.
  2. Where it is. The exact lines, and the route from where input enters your code to where it does harm.
  3. How to fix it. A small fix in the style of your code. You review it, then p4ndora opens a draft pull request.
  4. Whether it stays fixed. On Continuous, every push to your branch is checked against the last known state.

Can I use p4ndora and Snyk together?

Yes. Some teams keep a scanner in the editor and let p4ndora audit the whole repository on every push. p4ndora needs only a token that can read the repository, so it runs beside any tool you already have.
