"Due to the maturity of most companies, security posture management is the most valuable feature."
"The product provides very good network security."
"Prisma Cloud's monitoring features such as the compute compliance dashboard and the vulnerability dashboard, where we can get a clear visualization of their docker, have also been valuable. We can get layer-by-layer information that helps us see exactly where it's noncompliant. They update the dashboards quite frequently."
"Most of the customers we are tackling have different tools and solutions, like Qualys, Nessus, and vulnerability management assessment solutions. There are plugins for them, and we can integrate Prisma Cloud with them. We can enrich our telemetry with their data and use the predefined correlation rules in Prisma Cloud. That means we have that work done in seconds."
"It helps to identify the misconfigurations by monitoring regularly which helps to secure the organization's cloud environment."
"The solution gives us a lot of visibility across all of our cloud solutions."
"The two most valuable features are container security and the capability to discover workloads."
"CSPM is very useful because it gives us good policies and violation alerts."
"The technical support is good."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten."
"It is easy to install and manage."
"The benefit of working with the solution is the fact that it's very straightforward...It is a perfectly stable product since the details are very accurate."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its monitoring feature."
"I am impressed with the tool's visibility."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to share resources."
"I like virtualization and all those tools that come with OpenShift. I also like Advanced Cluster Management and the built-in security."

"When there are updates, whether daily, weekly, or monthly, it needs configuration or permission adjustments. There is no automation for that, which is too bad."
"The deployment and onboarding are plug-and-play, but somewhat hard to handle in terms of integration with external operations tools. The product design isn't up to the current standard. I would recommend having higher standards in terms of integration with other tools, especially operationalized tools."
"The pricing for the solution needs improvement."
"Sometimes we do get false alerts. That should be improved."
"We would like it to have more features from the risk and compliance perspectives."
"The UI could be improved."
"It's not really on par with, or catering to, what other products are looking at in terms of SAST and DAST capabilities. For those, you'd probably go to the market and look at something like Veracode or WhiteHat."
"The dashboard can be created at the user level instead of the cloud account level, which will help save time."
"The initial setup is pretty complex. There's a learning curve, and its cost varies across different environments. It's difficult."
"The solution's visibility and vulnerability prevention should be improved."
"Red Hat is somewhat expensive."
"The solution's price could be better."
"The solution lacks features when compared to some of the competitors such as Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks and has room for improvement."
"The deprecation of APIs is a concern since the deprecation of APIs will cause issues for us every time we upgrade."
"The tool's command line and configuration are hard for us to understand and make deployment complex. It should also include zero trust, access control features and database connectivity."
"The documentation about Red Hat Advanced Cluster Security available online is very limited... So it's very limited to the documentation."
