CAST Highlight is able to provide quick insights on third-party components

  • August 17, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The scanning process is straightforward; the CAST Highlight portal can provide many different insights and is highly customizable. CAST Highlight's public API can help you leverage CAST data in your own application and allows automation of the processing of scan results.
CAST is constantly improving the product and API, which enhances the overall experience.
What do you dislike about the product?
API does not yet contain all information
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are leveraging CAST Highlight during Software and Tech Due Diligence projects, in the course of M&A-related transcations. Here CAST Highlight allows us to gain access to evidence about a target's codebase without directly accessing the code ourselves. This is a crucial differentiator for us and allows us to move fast, have a low footprint and gain confidence from all parties involved.

CAST Highlight in Action

  • August 12, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
There are two top things that I like about CAST ( Highlight ):
1. Ease of use;
2. Derived insights.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing comes to mind. I did not experience any issues nor do I dislike anything about Highlight at this time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The primary problem solved was understanding the level of effort to migrate a portfolio of applications to Cloud. In a period of a couple of weeks, we were able to analyze a portfolio of around 100 applications and identify: overall software health compared to industry benchmarks, vulnerabilities and risks as well as blockers and boosters. Based upon this understanding, we were able to prioritize the efforts by building associated business cases for each application. This ultimately led to evidence-based, informed decision making.
