It contacts your account provider and fetches metadata, eliminating the need for snapshots or reserved space to copy client infrastructure
Orca Security has patented technologies. It's an agentless solution, so you don't need to install an agent. Instead, it contacts your account provider and fetches metadata, eliminating the need for snapshots or reserved space to copy client infrastructure. The multi-cloud capability displays essential information and potential vulnerabilities with granular detail. For instance, it identifies paths that attackers might exploit to gain root or admin access to machines. It is comprehensive, covering a wide range of software needs. They also integrate with CI/CD pipelines, enabling developers to ensure security from the early stages of code deployment. This integration provides a 100% guarantee on security, safeguarding images, configurations, and other crucial information throughout the development process.

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"I think their pricing model is aligned with market demand. Of course, Orca could probably better align their pricing model with the needs of smaller businesses as well as some larger-scale enterprises with millions of assets. But in all fairness, I think the Orca sales team has been accommodating and ensured that we're happy with the pricing."
"The most expensive solution is Palo Alto. They claim to be very robust. The next most expensive is Wiz, followed by Orca and all the rest."
"Orca Security charges are based on cloud workloads. So, it's based on workloads. If we look at one feature, it might be expensive."
"Orca is very competitive when compared to the alternatives and is not the most expensive in the market, that's for sure."
"We have a total of 25 licenses for this solution. The solution is on a pay-and-you-use model."
"The pricing depends on how many assets you have running in your cloud and how many environments you have. If you have a dev environment, test environment, and a production environment then it's really important that you have coverage for all of them."
"It is the cost of the visibility that you get. When you really sit down and think about what do you need to do to secure an environment with a low impact on the business, and you take a look out into the world, I think this tool is well justified around cost."
"Overall, the pricing is reasonable and the discounts have been acceptable."
