GENEVA AND AUSTIN — October 29, 2024 — Sonar, the leading provider of code quality and security solutions, today announced that it is streamlining the naming of its current product offering around SonarQube. As Sonar’s flagship brand, SonarQube represents the company’s core mission: improving the quality and security of all code while delivering an improved developer experience. These changes are exclusive to Sonar’s branding – all products will retain the same powerful features but now under one brand name.
The new product naming consists of:
- SonarQube Server (formerly known as SonarQube)
- SonarQube Cloud (formerly known as SonarCloud)
- SonarQube for IDE (formerly known as SonarLint)
- SonarQube Community Build (formerly known as SonarQube Community Edition)
The new product naming is intended to simplify Sonar’s brand experience and improve consistency. It has long been Sonar’s vision to deliver the same brand experience for its customers, regardless of whether or not they are using the self-managed or cloud solution. Sonar’s product offering will remain the same, providing powerful solutions that over 7 million developers worldwide rely on, analyzing over 750 billion lines of code daily.
“The software development space is rapidly transforming, creating a greater need for verifying that code addresses quality and security requirements, particularly with the adoption of AI tools. The decision to simplify our product brand experience under SonarQube is a reflection of its strength and our commitment to empowering development teams around the world with the tools they need for quality, security, and continuous improvement for all code, whether AI-generated or written by developers,” said Tariq Shaukat, CEO of Sonar.
The alignment to the SonarQube name also underscores the company’s commitment to evolve as the needs of developers change and the software landscape expands. Sonar launched SonarCloud, now SonarQube Cloud, in 2018 in order to create an experience completely managed by Sonar that matches that of SonarQube Server. Having established Enterprise and Team plans for SonarQube Cloud earlier this year, the new naming signals the actualization of that vision.
The Sonar website reflects new product naming today, and in-product name changes will start to appear in December. For more information, visit our product page at https://www.sonarsource.com/brand-identity/.
