It is easy to use, requires no configuration, and is agentless
We requested additional capabilities as we began deploying and scanning beyond the initial setup. Specifically, we wanted the ability to: * Continuously monitor configurations 24/7. * Gain immediate visibility of all assets as they are deployed and ensure they are included in the system. * Identify underlying configuration issues. Another valuable enhancement is compliance management for various standards like ISO, PCI, HIPAA, GDPR, etc. As organizations move to the cloud, a cloud posture management tool that offers complete cloud visibility becomes crucial for maintaining compliance. One area for improvement could be the internal analysis process, specifically the guidance provided for remediation. While the classification system itself might be industry standard, the remediation steps could be more specific. A vulnerability might be critical according to the scoring system, but its urgency depends on the context. For instance, a critical vulnerability signed by Cloud Native Security or any other product might be less urgent if it affects a non-production development environment undergoing UAT compared to a production environment.

It's easy to do queries to find out how many servers we have and the applications installed on each
Wiz's biggest benefit is visibility. My organization acquired a few other companies, and we didn't know what we had. With Wiz, we only needed to create a service account and add new accounts to gain visibility into how they are configured, what security holes they have, and how to fix their vulnerabilities. Visibility into critical risks is essential to our security team's job. You need to know what's out there to protect the environment. Wiz helps us reduce blind spots in our remediation, and we're constantly working on that. Our cloud security team is relatively small, so we're still seeing several servers with vulnerabilities. We're still refining our remediation process. Now, when we see a vulnerability, we open a ticket with CloudOps to remedy it. However, the company recently made some acquisitions, and the other organizations we bought have their own processes. We've been able to consolidate a few tools. For example, we had another product that we were using to pull reports from AMIs, but we recently started doing that in Wiz, so we don't need it anymore. It's easier to use one tool with a single pane of glass instead of logging into multiple tools to get some information, you can do it from the Wiz platform.

Quotes from Members

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

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"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."
"PingSafe is priced reasonably for our workload."
"I wasn't sure what to expect from the pricing, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was a little less than I thought."
"It's a fair price for what you get. We are happy with the price as it stands."
"We have an enterprise license. It is affordable. I'm not sure, but I think we pay 150,000 rupees per month."
"PingSafe's pricing is good because it provides us with a solution."
"It is not that expensive. There are some tools that are double the cost of PingSafe. It is good on the pricing side."

"I wish the pricing was more transparent."
"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 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."
"The pricing is fair. Some of the more advanced features and functionalities and how the tiers are split can be somewhat confusing."
"Wiz is a moderately priced solution, where it is neither cheap nor costly."
"The cost of the other solutions is comparable to Wiz."
"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."
