We're thrilled to announce that SonarQube Server has been honored with a 2025 DEVIES Award in the DevOps: Code Testing & Quality Management category. This prestigious award recognizes our commitment to delivering a top-tier code quality and security solution for developers and organizations worldwide. Our self-managed solution, SonarQube Server enables developers and organizations to ensure their code — human-written or AI-generated — leads to maintainable, reliable, and secure software.
The DEVIES Awards, known for spotlighting outstanding innovation and technology in the developer ecosystem, have become a hallmark of excellence. Award winners were selected from hundreds of nominees by the independent, expert-led DevNetwork Advisory Board, based on criteria including: technical innovation; attracting notable attention and awareness in the software industry; and general regard and use by the developer, engineering & IT communities.
Winning in such a competitive DevOps field underscores the impact of SonarQube on shaping how developers and organizations approach code quality and security. The category is new to the DEVIES Awards this year and also points to the importance of code quality and testing in software development. With the cost of poor software quality having grown to at least $2.41 trillion in the US alone, it's clear that code quality must be a top priority.
Code Quality & Testing — More Important Than Ever
Testing and ensuring quality of code is critical in the software development lifecycle, as the foundation of good software is high-quality, secure code. In today’s fast-paced world, developers are expected to ship features rapidly while ensuring their code is free of bugs, vulnerabilities, and technical debt. SonarQube Server is an important ally in this endeavor as the tool for writing secure, maintainable code of the highest quality.
With SonarQube Server, developer teams are empowered to:
- Harness the Power of AI — With advanced capabilities like AI Code Assurance and AI CodeFix, developers and organizations can take advantage of generative AI and ensure that the resulting code is clean, secure, and efficient
- Automate Code Analysis — SonarQube Server integrates seamlessly into CI/CD pipelines, ensuring every code change is analyzed and evaluated as it is written
- Elevate Skills — Providing actionable insights directly within the developer’s workflow, SonarQube Server fosters a culture of learning and shared responsibility
- Ensure Security — With robust support for identifying security issues, SonarQube Server helps developers and organizations secure their applications from the ground up
- Drive Continuous Improvement — By addressing code quality issues early and often, developer teams reduce long-term technical debt, improve reliability, and avoid the compounding work required to resolve issues discovered later in the software development lifecycle.
