Pricing
EnterpriseVeracode does not publish pricing publicly \u2014 all plans require direct engagement with the sales team. Pricing is per-application (not per-developer), scaling with application count and scan frequency. Reference pricing: Static Analysis (SAST) starts at approximately $10,000-$15,000/year for up to 100 applications. Full enterprise packages combining SAST, DAST, SCA, Pipeline Scan, and Veracode Fix typically run $100,000-$250,000+/year for large application portfolios. Veracode Fix AI remediation is bundled with Static Analysis SAST at no additional charge as of 2026 \u2014 a notable advantage over competitors that charge separately for AI remediation. Contact Veracode through veracode.com for enterprise pricing and application portfolio assessment.
EnterpriseWiz uses enterprise-only, workload-based pricing and does not publish list prices; all plans require a sales conversation. Published AWS Marketplace reference pricing lists Wiz Essential at $24,000/year and Wiz Advanced at $38,000/year for 100 cloud workloads, with add-ons such as Wiz Sensor ($28,000/year for 100 sensors), Wiz Code ($58,500/year for 100 code licenses), and Wiz Defend ($18,000/year for 300GB of monthly log ingestion). Third-party spend data (Vendr) puts overall contract values between roughly $24,000 and $354,000/year, with a median around $111,500/year. Most contracts run 12 months, and pricing scales with the number of cloud workloads protected.

Veracode

Veracode Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Binary analysis — scans compiled artifacts without source code access, unique capability no other major AppSec tool matches
  • Veracode Fix AI remediation bundled at no extra charge — up to 92% reduction in fix time across 11 languages
  • 20+ years of binary SAST expertise — deepest vulnerability detection database in the market for compiled code
  • Strong compliance posture — PCI-DSS, HIPAA, NIST, FedRAMP Ready — essential for regulated industries
  • Veracode Verified program provides third-party attestation — differentiates security-mature organizations in vendor assessments
  • Comprehensive training via eLearning (200+ modules) plus manual penetration testing in one platform
  • Spring 2026 GenAI Code Security Report — authoritative research positioning Veracode in AI code security conversation

Cons

  • Binary analysis approach makes identifying exact vulnerable source lines more difficult vs source-based SAST
  • Per-application pricing scales poorly for microservices architectures with many small services
  • One of the most expensive AppSec platforms — full enterprise $100K-$250K+/year
