Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Fenergo
- Implementations commonly run twelve to twenty-four months and depend on a systems integrator, so the services cost frequently exceeds the software subscription in year one.
- It orchestrates screening but does not supply the sanctions, PEP or adverse media data, so you still buy Dow Jones, LexisNexis or World-Check separately and those fees are per screened entity.
- The entry price is set for institutions with large onboarding volumes, which puts it out of reach of smaller banks and fintechs that would otherwise benefit from the rules library.
- Configuration is deep and specific, which makes upgrades between major versions a project rather than a patch, and some customers stay on old releases for years.
- The rules library covers regulatory requirements, not your internal risk appetite, so the policy tuning that determines whether onboarding actually gets faster remains your work.
Legit Security
- Pricing requires contacting sales, making cost comparison difficult
- No published pricing tiers or free tier available
- Requires integration with existing SAST and SCA tools for full capability
- Focused primarily on code security within development lifecycle
- Newer entrant with less market presence than established competitors

Answered from the vendors’ own pages
Fenergo: Does Fenergo do the sanctions screening itself?
No. It orchestrates calls to third-party data providers such as Dow Jones and World-Check, and those subscriptions are additional and usually charged per screened entity.
Legit Security: What is VibeGuard and how does it work?
VibeGuard is Legit Security's core feature that scans AI-generated code directly within IDEs like GitHub Copilot and Cursor, identifying vulnerabilities before code leaves the developer's editor.
SourceFenergo: Is it SaaS or on-premises?
Both. The SaaS offering runs on Microsoft Azure with regional deployment options, which matters where data residency rules prohibit client data leaving the jurisdiction.
Legit Security: What AI code assistants does Legit Security support?
Legit Security integrates with GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and Claude to scan AI-generated code for vulnerabilities.
SourceFenergo: How long does a deployment take?
Plan for a year at minimum for a multi-jurisdiction rollout. Single-jurisdiction deployments with a narrow product set can be shorter but rarely under six months.
Legit Security: How does Legit Security's AI remediation feature work?
The platform uses AI to suggest specific code fixes for identified vulnerabilities and can automatically create tickets in Jira with full context for developers to review and apply.
SourceLegit Security: Does Legit Security support compliance reporting?
Yes, Legit Security automates compliance automation with SBOM generation and can generate compliance reports for security and regulatory requirements.
