Unified risk scoring has improved our cloud visibility and simplifies remediation priorities
Qualys TotalCloud provides unified vulnerability and threat assessment across both IAS and SaaS. This solution provides a single prioritized view of risk, which helps reduce the work I would have to do. We are no longer based on CVSS; we are based on Qualys risk scoring, which is based on CVSS plus internal findings made by Qualys, and then assigns its own score. The TruRisk insight feature has found a small number of assets with high vulnerability scores, though I am cautious since some information is classified. Qualys TotalCloud has positively impacted our bank's performance, and we have definitely seen benefits after implementing this solution.

Network visibility has transformed migrations and now drives proactive threat hunting
In terms of improvement, I have found sometimes ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360 duplicates data a bit because it basically spans the data information from the sources within the network, so sometimes it's very hard to correlate data because it sometimes gets multiple feeds. I would to say that it needs to have some sort of internal check to validate data rather than duplicating from multiple sources so that we don't have to manually correct the source of truth.Plus, I think I would like to see continued improvements in AI-assisted threat hunting and natural language queries so the analysts can move from high-level detection to the relevant user, device, application, and network evidence with fewer manual pivots. Making advanced features easier for less experienced analysts to use would help organizations to get more value from the platforms. I would like to add one more thing: if we could have more customization of dashboards and role-based views, stronger out-of-the-box correlations with SIEM, EDR, and identity platforms, and maybe further automation of investigation response workflows, that will be great.

Improved our security posture thanks to comprehensive visibility
I have contacted Wiz technical support frequently. The support is excellent. We contact via an in-application portal. We can see the support cases we personally open, and also the cases that other people have opened from our company. I appreciate that feature. Generally, support gets back to us within a few days with a good answer. There was one fellow in particular who has been knocking it out of the park. He is a great support person to deal with. We are happy with the support experience. If I were to put Wiz support on a scale from one to ten, I would give them a ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Qualys TotalCloud's most valuable features are its security capabilities that help identify and mitigate risk factors."
"The agent and agentless scanning in TotalCloud, particularly the FlexScan method, is incredibly valuable. With traditional scanning approaches, we had to give IP ranges and whitelist IPs. All that is now simplified. FlexScan requires minimal intervention, and after configuration, it automatically collects data and performs necessary scans."
"We were able to realize its benefits within 24 to 48 hours."
"Qualys TotalCloud provides a single, prioritized view of risk, reducing the workload associated with consolidating multiple sources for risk prioritization."
"Generally, Qualys is very good at detections, whether on cloud or on-prem, and the agent allows deployment on both infrastructures, providing continuous monitoring of your assets, which is a key selling point for us."
"I found the initial setup user-friendly."
"Qualys TotalCloud fulfills all these needs."
"The most valuable feature is the consolidated information that it provides from various platforms."
"In terms of workload and pinpointing issues, ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360 has helped us a lot and made our life as network Level 3 support easier."
"It stands out for its intuitive and efficient user interface, robust detection capabilities with minimal false positives, and the ability to handle encrypted traffic, making it a valuable asset for network security and management."
"Their technical support is more effective and of better quality than other competitors."
"ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360 has positively impacted my organization by helping us detect abnormal activity on our network that we could not detect through our SIEM or XDR platform."
"ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360 has undeniably improved our security posture, reduced manual investigation efforts, and facilitated fast threat detection mechanisms, which all help prevent costly potential breaches in enterprise environments."
"It is scalable."
"It is very easy to collect and handle data in ExtraHop Reveal(X) Cloud. Integration with Big Data is also easy. Many of our customers integrate it with Big Data platforms like Splunk or Elastic. It is also easy to handle and easy to understand."
"Wiz is a very powerful product technologically."
"Wiz has impacted our organization very positively because it includes various advanced features such as compliance audits, continuous security monitoring, and vulnerability management, along with cloud assistance and DevSecOps integration."
"Wiz gives a very good insight into how secure your software and code are and is quite good at consolidating the scanning results."
"Our most important features are those around entitlement, external exposure, vulnerabilities, and container security."
"The automation roles are essential because we ultimately want to do less work and automate more. The dashboards are easy to read and visually pleasing. You can understand things quickly, which makes it easy for our other teams. The network and infrastructure teams don't know as much about security as we do, so it helps to have a tool that's accessible and nice to look at."
"A valuable feature is that Wiz helps in identifying vulnerabilities."
"Wiz can accomplish this and easily provide the total inventory in the cloud, which is crucial when managing large cloud databases or environments such as AWS, Azure, or Google environments, where it's difficult to have one view for all cloud components."
"The CSPM module has been the most effective. It was easy to deploy and covered all our accounts through APIs, requiring no agents. Wiz provides instant visibility into high-level risks that we need to address."
 

Cons

"The vulnerability part is good, but the policy compliance module needs improvement because it involves a lot of manual work. Specifically, the remediation part of the controls requires enhancements."
"The cloud licensing unit system is unclear, especially since "units" aren't well-defined."
"There is a lack of data segregation according to criticality or inventory."
"The support process is inefficient due to the excessive number of replies required when submitting tickets."
"In terms of improvement, remediation still belongs to the cloud team, which is one of the issues we faced with Qualys TotalCloud."
"The price is very expensive, actually."
"I would like the ability to disable certain default built-in policies as they can be misleading when creating dashboards. That is the top one."
"The response part of the Cloud Detection and Response (CDR) module can be improved."
"Their professional service can be improved."
"One challenge with ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360 is its pricing, which tends to be comparatively high in the marketplace."
"There needs to be more support."
"I would like to see ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360 improved by integrating XDR features with NDR."
"They can include integration with SAP. Currently, no vendor provides network performance monitoring in the SAP market. It is a very big market. We have around 400 customers for SAP in Korea. In the USA, there are more than 10,000 customers."
"A drawback includes bucket storage limitations for payload data, necessitating timely extraction for thorough investigations."
"In terms of improvement, I have found sometimes ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360 duplicates data a bit because it basically spans the data information from the sources within the network, so sometimes it's very hard to correlate data because it sometimes gets multiple feeds."
"The solution's container security could be improved."
"The APIs are currently quite limited and not very mature, which makes integration with Splunk difficult."
"As the tool is a good fit for small and medium-sized businesses, the solution should focus on making the product suitable for large-scale businesses."
"The pricing is a bit higher than the market rate, but the value it provides is more valuable than the pricing."
"Two percent would be that the loading time is taking a bit longer while loading the graph, and while navigating to other links, that is also taking some time."
"I feel there is a bit of noise in the initial setup and quality cleaning that may take time in larger environments."
"In Brazil, the cost is a significant issue due to the currency exchange rate."
"It would be better if, when you get an alert type, you are able to view the regex or alert logic without having to dig through all the different options; it is difficult to find where the alert logic is because you have to go to the investigations and then actually find and search for the individual alert."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"As a middle management member, I do not have direct pricing knowledge, but based on the knowledge from our meetings, its pricing is competitive."
"Qualys TotalCloud is expensive."
"The pricing is comparable. It is built into our other product, so I cannot piecemeal it. It is a part of our subscription."
"The pricing for TotalCloud is attractive and competitive in the market. Given the features, especially the dashboard, I have no concerns regarding pricing."
"Although Qualys TotalCloud is relatively expensive due to its unique automation features, its cost-effectiveness is rated an eight out of ten, with ten being the most costly."
"The cost is high, but it meets our organizational needs."
"Its price seems higher compared to other tools, but it is worth it. If they could adjust the pricing and make it comparable with other tools, that would be great."
"Qualys TotalCloud is cost-efficient and was selected for its value compared to other products."
"When compared to other solutions, it aligns with the market average, indicating a competitive pricing level."
"Based on the features and capabilities, the product pricing seems reasonable."
"Regarding pricing, it’s more than $100k because we have a very big infrastructure. Our environment supports around three thousand people, and we offer business-to-client financial services to around one million clients, so we rely heavily on Wiz."
"If one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the tool's price as a five out of ten."
"The pricing is fair and comparable to their competitors. The cost seems to be going up, which is a concern. There are potential savings from consolidating tools, but we're uncertain how Wiz's pricing will change over time."
"The pricing is fair. Some of the more advanced features and functionalities and how the tiers are split can be somewhat confusing."
"I wish the pricing was more transparent."
"The pricing seems pretty simple. We don't have to do a lot of calculations to figure out what the components are. They do it by enabling specific features, either basics or advanced, which makes it easy to select."
"Wiz is a moderately priced solution, where it is neither cheap nor costly."
