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.

Unified visibility has transformed threat detection and performance troubleshooting across environments
ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360 is very powerful, and there is always room for improvement. One area is more customizable dashboards and reporting for executives, with more business-level reporting. Second, deeper native integrations with SOAR and ticketing tools to automate response even faster. Third, cost optimizations for SMBs, making some premium features more accessible would help wider adoption. From a consultant's perspective, a few enhancements could make ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360 even stronger. First, usability, with more intuitive, guided workflows and contextual AI assist for junior analysts to reduce the learning curve. Second, onboarding with more pre-built use case templates for healthcare, finance, and other industries to speed up time-to-value. Third, support and enablement with more granular role-based access and better in-product documentation for faster troubleshooting. These are not gaps, but opportunities to make an already powerful platform even more user-friendly and scalable.

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 provides a single, prioritized view based on requirements such as identifying the most vulnerable assets and calculating the average time to remediate vulnerabilities."
"TruRisk Insights is the most important innovation they've released this year."
"If someone were to ask me to review Qualys TotalCloud, I would summarize it as an end-to-end solution for cloud security with visibility and governance-grade controls without needing to manage multiple disconnected tools."
"The best feature would be the ability to create policies. It is easy to control and update policies as required."
"Vulnerability and threat detection and assessment of the criticality of the vulnerabilities exposed are most valuable."
"Qualys TotalCloud's most valuable feature is its ability to link clusters of assets, providing a clear model of deployments, vulnerabilities, and statuses."
"I appreciate Qualys TotalCloud's ability to onboard any type of device with ease, including containers."
"In my opinion, this is the best tool."
"Overall, I use it as a single 360-degree platform for visibility across on-prem and cloud."
"It is scalable."
"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."
"Their technical support is more effective and of better quality than other competitors."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of Wiz is that it keeps information up to date without needing to perform scans or schedule maintenance windows. It provides a fresh snapshot of our vulnerability metrics."
"Wiz has helped my organization by allowing us to analyze the critical issues and providing the best way to mitigate these issues with step-by-step guidance."
"Wiz helps to identify active threats more effectively as it does active scanning on workloads, keeps looking into logs and images of virtual machines, and upon detecting threats, it checks possible connections through events and logs, giving visibility into where the issue started and exactly where it is."
"Wiz is very effective and very advanced compared to other solutions."
"The biggest impact Wiz has had on our organization is improved visibility and better prioritization, as previously mentioned."
"The granularity of visibility that the platform provides is the most valuable aspect."
"The UI is what I appreciate most about Wiz; the interface is really easy and not clunky."
 

Cons

"Although TotalCloud is a helpful tool, some of its advanced features are still under development."
"It has been working very well, but it would be helpful if the dashboard could generate reports tailored to specific compliance needs. For example, in India, we have to comply with RBI and SEBI guidelines. It w"
"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."
"Areas that need improvement in every solution include the remediation part. The remediation steps should be simple enough for everyone to understand."
"The price is very expensive, actually."
"The main area needing improvement is integration. Although the team is strengthening TotalCloud, integration can be enhanced with SIEM, SOAR, ITSM, and other sources."
"Their support could be improved."
"Regarding technical support from Qualys, they respond, but the response time can be too long. Sometimes we need to wait weeks for solutions to simple questions."
"There needs to be more support."
"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."
"Their professional service can be improved."
"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."
"I would like to see ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360 improved by integrating XDR features with NDR."
"One challenge with ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360 is its pricing, which tends to be comparatively high in the marketplace."
"Wiz is agentless, which is a plus, but the runtime and real-time detection could be limited, as it is not its strength."
"Wiz's pricing model is very poor."
"In Wiz, if there is one vulnerability that occurs multiple times, it is listed only once. However, even if it is a single vulnerability in the same category, it repeats multiple times. This feature can be time-consuming as it requires continuous scrolling."
"FinOps is an area where Wiz needs enhancement."
"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 only slight negative is its scanning capability compared to Checkmarx, but it is still very good."
"I feel there is a bit of noise in the initial setup and quality cleaning that may take time in larger environments."
"The only thing that needs to be improved is the number of scans per day."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Qualys TotalCloud is expensive."
"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."

"While Qualys TotalCloud's pricing is currently acceptable, it is becoming increasingly expensive and may soon be considered overpriced."

"Qualys TotalCloud is cost-efficient and was selected for its value compared to other products."

"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."

"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."
