Our take
Pick CodeScene if you're engineering leads who will pick refactoring targets from a map. Pick Qlty if you're on a team leaving CodeClimate Quality who still want a $0 cloud floor. Skip CodeScene if you're on a team that only need a coverage sparkline (Coveralls) or IDE inspections in CI (Qodana). Skip Qlty if you're orgs that need a Code Health bubble map (CodeScene) or JetBrains inspections in CI (Qodana).
