SnykFree tier and limits

Vulnerability scans for your code and packages. Free for 5 projects and 100 code tests a month.

Sniffed 19d agoNo card needed#security#sca#sast#dependencies#containers#vulnerabilities

Run it before you ship an app built from packages you never read. Snyk scans your code, open source dependencies, containers and infrastructure files for known vulnerabilities and suggests fixes, with integrations for GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, IDEs and CI. The Free plan is for individual developers and small teams, allows 5 projects and 100 Snyk Code (SAST) tests a month, and I could not confirm the other product test caps from the page text. Team starts at $25 a month for up to 10 developers and 100 projects with higher test limits. G2 reviewers praise the free tier but name the monthly test caps as its main limit. They also report false positives, too many alerts and a Snyk Code engine that feels less mature than the dependency scanning side. Trustpilot shows 3.0 from five reviews, and r/devops threads include complaints about support and cost. It fits teams that want dependency scanning first.

👍 Good boy

+G2 reviewers frequently praise the generosity of the free tier.
+It scans dependencies, code, containers and infrastructure files from one account.
+Integrates with GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, IDEs and CI, so findings show up where developers work.
+The Team plan at $25 a month is low for a commercial security scanner.
+Fix suggestions and pull requests for upgrades come with the findings.
+G2 lists 136 reviews, so there is a base of feedback to read.

👎 Watch out

−G2 reviewers name the monthly test caps as the primary limitation of the free tier.
−A G2 reviewer said Snyk Code results feel less mature than the dependency scanning side, with more false positives and less context.
−Another G2 reviewer said it can generate too many alerts, which overwhelms teams and needs manual validation.
−A r/devops user said its SAST fell short compared with Checkmarx and Fortify, with many false positives and false negatives.
−A r/devops user who is required to use Snyk called the support and false positives infuriating.
−Trustpilot shows 3.0 out of 5 from only 5 reviews.

The catch

The free plan is capped by number of tests per month, and G2 reviewers name that as its main limit. I confirmed 100 Snyk Code tests and 5 projects from the plans page, not the caps for the other products, so check the page before you plan around them. False positives are the most common complaint across G2 and Reddit, especially for the code scanner. Plan time to triage. The Free plan is described as for individual developers and small teams. A larger company should read the terms.
