Our take
Pick DeepSource if you're on a team who want PR review plus Autofix without a self-hosted Sonar stack. Pick SonarQube Cloud if you're on a repo team who will stay on Free forever (private projects up to 50k LOC, or public OSI-licensed repos) while they open a first Overview, then buy Team at $34 / month for up to 100k LOC. Skip DeepSource if you're orgs that only need a coverage history (Coveralls) or a package CVE
