Tells us about vulnerabilities as well as their impact and helps to focus on real issues
Looking at all the different pieces, it has got everything we need. Some of the pieces we do not even use. For example, we do not have Kubernetes Security. We are not running any K8 clusters, so it is good for us. Overall, we find the solution to be fantastic. There can be additional education components. This may not be truly fair to them because of what the product is going for, but it would be great to see additional education for compliance. It is not a criticism of the tool per se, but anything to help non-development resources understand some of the complexities of the cloud is always appreciated. Any additional educational resources are always helpful for security teams, especially those without a development background.

Reliable with good container scanning and a straightforward setup
The solution is used mainly to scan public clouds or containers. It can be used on demand. For example, when we go through the DevOps lifecycle, containers can be brought in based on demand for some use cases. We often need application onboarding and application changes. The containers do pop up…

Great features, good support, and lots of functionality
We are using the solution for configuration and file integrity management. It's a validation tool.  They have multiple great features.  It offers most of the functionalities we need.  The one thing missing is the IPS part, the blocking part.  We end up facing a lot of issues after upgrades. I've…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"They're responsive to feature requests. If I suggest a feature for Prisma, I will need to wait until the next release on their roadmap. Cloud Native Security will add it right away."
"It has a user-friendly dashboard that I can access without any difficulty."
"It is pretty easy to integrate with this platform. When properly integrated, it monitors end-to-end."
"The most valuable features of PingSafe are cloud misconfiguration, Kubernetes, and IaC scanning."
"Cloud Native Security's most valuable features include cloud misconfiguration detection and remediation, compliance monitoring, a robust authentication security engine, and cloud threat detection and response capabilities."
"The most valuable features are automated threat response, AI detection, and static and dynamic detection."
"PingSafe offers three key features: vulnerability management notifications, cloud configuration assistance, and security scanning."
"The UI is responsive and user-friendly."
"From what I understand, the initial setup is simple."
"Support is very helpful."
"The most valuable features are that it's easy to use and manage."
"We use Aqua Security for the container security features."
"The most valuable feature of Aqua Security is the scanner."
"The container security element of this product has been very valuable to our organization."
"The CSPM product is great at securing our cloud accounts and I really like the runtime protection for containers and functions too."
"The DTA, which stands for Dynamic Threat Analysis, allows me to analyze Docker images in a sandbox environment before deployment, helping me anticipate risks."
"They have multiple great features."
 

Cons

"The integration with Oracle has room for improvement."
"One of our use cases was setting up a firewall for our endpoints, specifically for our remote users... We were hoping to utilize SentinelOne's firewall capabilities, but there were limitations on how many URLs we could implement. Because of those limitations on the number of URLs, we weren't able to utilize that feature in the way we had hoped to."
"When we request any changes, they must be reflected in the next update."
"In some cases, the rules are strictly enforced but do not align with real-world use cases."
"I'd like to see better onboarding documentation."
"They need more experienced support personnel."
"A vulnerability alert would appear, and we'd fix it, but then the same alert would return the next day."
"The could improve their mean time to detect."
"The solution could improve user-friendliness."
"The user interface could be improved, especially in terms of organization and clarity."
"Aqua Security could improve the forwarding of logging into Splunk and into other tools, it should be easier."
"They want to release improvements to their product to work with other servers because now there are more focused on the Kubernetes environment. They need to improve the normal servers. I would like to have more options."
"It's a bit hard to use the user roles. That was a bit confusing."
"Since we are working from home, we would like to have the proper training for Aqua."
"There's room for improvement, particularly in management capabilities as it may not be comprehensive enough for all customers, and it has been lacking in the realm of cloud security posture management."
"I would like Aqua Security to look into is the development of a web security portal."
"We end up facing a lot of issues after upgrades."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"PingSafe is less expensive than other options."
"It's not expensive. The product is in its initial growth stages and appears more competitive compared to others. It comes in different variants, and I believe the enterprise version costs around $55 per user per year. I would rate it a five, somewhere fairly moderate."
"For pricing, it currently seems to be in line with market rates."
"SentinelOne offers excellent pricing and licensing options."
"The pricing for PingSafe in India was more reasonable than other competitors."
"The price depends on the extension of the solution that you want to buy. If you want to buy just EDR, the price is less. XDR is a little bit more expensive. There are going to be different add-ons for Singularity."
"PingSafe is cost-effective for the amount of infrastructure we have. It's reasonable for what they offer compared to our previous solution. It's at least 25 percent to 30 percent less."
"We found it to be fine for us. Its price was competitive. It was something we were happy with. We are not a Fortune 500 company, so I do not know how pricing scales at the top end, but for our cloud environment, it works very well."
"It comes at a reasonable cost."
"Aqua Security is not cheap, and it's not very expensive, such as Splunk, they are in the middle."
"They were reasonable with their pricing. They were pretty down-to-earth about the way they pitched their product and the way they tried to close the deal. They were one of the rare companies that approached the whole valuation in a way that made sense for our company, for our needs, and for their own requirements as well... They will accommodate your needs if they are able to understand them and they're stated clearly."
"Dealing with licensing costs isn't my responsibility, but I know that the licenses don't depend on the number of users, but instead are priced according to your workload."
"The pricing of this solution could be improved."
