what is the alernative to SIG Maintainability Model Plugin in latest Sonarqube?

Question

I used to find SIG Maintainability Model Plugin very useful in sonarqube dashboard. But as shown in below link, it has been deprecated.

http://docs.sonarqube.org/display/PLUG/SIG+Maintainability+Model+Plugin

Currently I am using sonarqube 4.5.1 . Could anyone please suggest me, Is there any other plugin which can be used as replacement to this plugin.

Thanks in advance.

SonarQube 4.5 comes with the SQALE software quality model built-in. Unlike the SIGMM plugin, SQALE is based solely on issues, so you'll want to make sure you have the relevant common rules (related to duplications, complexity, &etc.) turned on. But beyond that, SQALE should fit the bill.

There are more details in the 4.5 docs, and if what you get by default in the platform isn't enough, there is a commercial plugin that will let you tune your SQALE model.
