Our take
Pick Codacy if you're on a team who want one hosted quality + security score without standing up SonarQube. Pick Qodana if you're on a team already living in JetBrains IDEs who want the same inspections in CI. Skip Codacy if you're repos that only need a coverage % (Coveralls / Codecov) or a dependency CVE inbox (Snyk). Skip Qodana if you're on a team that want a coverage-only history (Coveralls) or a dependency CVE
