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.

Enables time-saving automated scanning and brute force attacks
The most appreciated functionality of PortSwigger Burp Suite is its ability to perform brute force attacks automatically. Its automated scanning feature saves time. Additionally, using this tool provides significant security insights, making our testing process more efficient and comprehensive, leading to considerable time savings, which in turn translates to financial benefits.

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

"One of the features I appreciate is the ability to generate daily reports without relying on anyone else."
"CSPM is currently the most used feature, and we are enjoying the new feature, FlexScan, which is valuable for Internet-facing VMs."
"TruRisk Insights is the most important innovation they've released this year."
"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."
"Vulnerability and threat detection and assessment of the criticality of the vulnerabilities exposed are most valuable."
"The most valuable feature is extensibility."
"Qualys TotalCloud has significantly improved our organization by automating our reporting processes, reducing the time spent on report creation from two hours to less than fifteen to twenty minutes."
"I would definitely recommend it because it is easy to handle any cloud resources."
"The most appreciated functionality of PortSwigger Burp Suite is its ability to perform brute force attacks automatically."
"The most valuable features of PortSwigger Burp Suite Enterprise Edition are the vast amount of options and ease of use. They frequently improve the solution every six months to a year. Additionally, if we want any more features we can upload a custom script to meet our needs."
"The product's initial setup phase was super easy."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"Its automated scanning feature saves time."
"The product is easy to use."
"We are in the early stage of using the solution making it difficult to fully determine the best features. However, we have noticed the CMDB and device discovery features look valuable at this time."
"The most valuable part of it was probably the ability to intercept and modify calls."
"Wiz significantly helped with our compliance requirements."
"The UI is what I appreciate most about Wiz; the interface is really easy and not clunky."
"Wiz is very effective and very advanced compared to other solutions."
"With Wiz, we get timely alerts for leaked data or any vulnerabilities already existing in our environment."
"Wiz saves time by validating a network misconfiguration by not only looking at the cloud asset configuration but also by testing if a port that is stated to be open is actually open."
"The best features of Wiz are its security capabilities, providing the best security for pharmaceutical products and industries, along with the required dashboard containing customer details and inventory management features."
"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."
"I like Wiz's reporting, and it's easy to do queries. For example, it's pretty simple to find out how many servers we have and the applications installed on each. I like Wiz's security graph because you can use it to see the whole organization even if you have multiple accounts."
 

Cons

"I think Qualys TotalCloud needs to improve its handling of zero-day vulnerabilities and supply chain management because modern ransomware attacks not only target prime critical infrastructures but also the supply chain system."
"TotalCloud could improve its scanning of niche devices like Wi-Fi dongles and USB modems because they are often untested. It covers everything else, like laptops, mobile devices, and Bluetooth IoT devices. They can improve on the small IoT devices because hackers and testers use these."
"In TotalCloud, I would suggest improvements in policy checks to cater to various inventory types like VPCs, subnets, S3 buckets, or IAMs. There is a lack of data segregation according to criticality or inventory."
"To improve the user experience, reporting could be simplified for better comprehension by end users and project managers, facilitating issue resolution."
"The response part of the Cloud Detection and Response (CDR) module can be improved."
"The downside is only in container security, but it has not been a long time since they introduced these models."
"The patching process with Qualys Patch Management, which is part of TotalCloud, does not cover installing certain prerequisites on the servers or workstations. This shortcoming means we must rely on SCCM when any service stack updates or additional prerequisites are needed."
"The onboarding process is a bit difficult. In the initial phase, it is very difficult to understand the features, what the dashboard contains, and what criteria they are using."
"The stability is a big issue. So many times the scans fail."
"There's definitely room for improvement. There are lots of false positives. Once I do the manual assessment, it comes as a false positive. They need to improve the Enterprise Edition, especially the part that gives false positives."
"It would be better if the solution is cloud-based."
"PortSwigger Burp Suite Enterprise Edition should incorporate a static code analysis feature. One main issue we encounter is false positives. False positives can be challenging for developers."
"Scalability could be better."
"It would be beneficial if Burp Suite provided predefined payloads for each attack category, such as SQL injection and cross-site scripting, to automate some tasks more effectively."
"The cost per license per user could be cheaper, specifically for individual licensing."
"The product needs to have the ability to evaluate more."
"The only small pain point has been around some of the logging integrations. Some of the complexities of the script integrations aren't supported with some of the more automated infrastructure components. So, it's not as universal. For example, they have great support for cloud formation and other services, but if you're using another type of management utility or governance language for your infrastructure-as-code automation components, it becomes a little bit trickier to navigate that."
"The APIs are currently quite limited and not very mature, which makes integration with Splunk difficult."
"One important area for improvement in Wiz could be customization and reporting flexibility."
"One significant issue is that the searches are case-sensitive, so finding a misconfigured resource can become very challenging."
"In Brazil, the cost is a significant issue due to the currency exchange rate."
"An area of improvement is that there is a lot of data inside Wiz and the naming is confusing, as similar categories for vulnerabilities and issues sometimes duplicate issues across resources, which can be hectic."
"We wish there were a way, beyond providing visibility and automated remediation, to wait on a given remediation, due to a critical aspect, such as the cost associated with a particular upgrade... We would like to see preventive controls that can be applied through Wiz to protect against vulnerabilities that we're not going to be able to remediate immediately."
"I have seen some lagging or downtime a couple of times, but I am not sure why it happened."
 

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."
"The cost is high, but it meets our organizational needs."
"The pricing for TotalCloud is attractive and competitive in the market. Given the features, especially the dashboard, I have no concerns regarding pricing."
"Qualys TotalCloud offers good pricing that is affordable and competitive with the market. Our partnership also provides us with additional benefits."
"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."
"Qualys TotalCloud offers cost-effective licensing flexibility."
"It isn't cheap, but it's reasonable. It helps us to manage things with very few resources."
"TotalCloud's price is about right where I would expect it to be."
"Although the solution can be a bit expensive for small companies, its pricing is fairly reasonable for its capabilities."
"PortSwigger Burp Suite Enterprise Edition is expensive compared to other solutions."
"For Professional, it's about $400 per year."
"The tool's pricing is reasonable and costs around 400 dollars per year."
"PortSwigger Burp Suite Enterprise Edition is neither a cheap nor an expensive product. PortSwigger Burp Suite Enterprise Edition is a good tool for companies."
"Based on the features and capabilities, the product pricing seems reasonable."

"If one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the tool's price as a five out of ten."
"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."
"Wiz is a moderately priced solution, where it is neither cheap nor costly."
"The cost of the other solutions is comparable to 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."
"I wish the pricing was more transparent."
