Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We really appreciate the Slack integration. When we have an incident, we get an instant notification. We also use Joe Sandbox, which Singularity can integrate with, so we can verify if a threat is legitimate.""PingSafe's graph explorer is a valuable tool that lets us visualize all connected services.""There's real-time threat detection. It can show threats and find issues based on their severity and helps us with real-time monitoring.""PingSafe's integration is smooth. They are highly customer-oriented, and the integration went well for us.""Cloud Native Security's best feature is its ability to identify hard-coded secrets during pull request reviews.""PingSafe has a dashboard that can detect the criticality of a particular problem, whether it falls under critical, medium, or low vulnerability.""It's positively affected the communication between cloud security, application developers, and AppSec teams.""My favorite feature is Storyline."

"The CSPM product is great at securing our cloud accounts and I really like the runtime protection for containers and functions too.""The most helpful feature of Aqua Security is Drift Prevention, which is a feature that allows images to be immutable. In addition, one of the main reasons we went with Aqua Security is because it provides strong protection when it comes to runtime security.""Aqua Security allowed us to gain visibility into the vulnerabilities that were present in the container images, that were being rolled out, the amount of risk that we were introducing to the platform, and provided us a look into the container environment by introducing access control mechanisms. In addition, when it came to runtime-level policies, we could restrict container access to resources in our environment, such as network-level or other application-level access.""The container security element of this product has been very valuable to our organization.""Their sandboxing service is also really good.""The most valuable features are that it's easy to use and manage.""We use Aqua Security for the container security features.""Support is very helpful."

More Aqua Cloud Security Platform Pros →

"The UI is very useful.""The product's initial setup phase is simple.""Docker is very helpful for taking the code from development and applying it to the end user.""This solution has improved our organization with the agility, microservices approach, and scalable solutions for distributed systems.""It is a compact, complete solution that performs well.""I use Docker in combination with Kubernetes. Management of software packages is easy. It also can be done fast. Rolling out new software updates is smoother and faster due to Mirantis Container Cloud.""I like the automation in deployment. I can deploy whenever I want based on the environment, and I can easily roll back to a previous version for testing.""The solution containerizes software."

Cons
"If I had to pick a complaint, it would be the way the hosts are listed in the tool. You have different columns separated by endpoint name, Cloud Account, and Cloud Instances ID. I wish there was something where we could change the endpoint name and not use just the IP address. We would like to have custom names or our own names for the instances. If I had a complaint, that would be it, but so far, it meets all the needs that we have.""The integration with Oracle has room for improvement.""When we get a new finding from PingSafe, I wish we could get an alert in the console, so we can work on it before we see it in the report. It would be very useful for the team that is actively working on the PingSafe platform, so we can close the issue the same day before it appears in the daily report.""In some cases, the rules are strictly enforced but do not align with real-world use cases.""I would like additional integrations.""Sometimes the Storyline ID is a bit wacky.""The categorization of the results from the vulnerability assessment could be improved.""I'd like to see better onboarding documentation."

More SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security Cons →

"I would like Aqua Security to look into is the development of a web security portal.""The integrations on CICD could be improved. If Aqua had more plugins or container images to integrate and automate more easily on CICD, it would be better.""The solution could improve user-friendliness.""Aqua Security could improve the forwarding of logging into Splunk and into other tools, it should be easier.""It's a bit hard to use the user roles. That was a bit confusing.""Aqua Security lacks a lot in reporting.""They want to release improvements to their product to work with other servers because now there are more focused on the Kubernetes environment. They need to improve the normal servers. I would like to have more options.""There's room for improvement, particularly in management capabilities as it may not be comprehensive enough for all customers, and it has been lacking in the realm of cloud security posture management."

More Aqua Cloud Security Platform Cons →

"It will be better if the product provides dynamic load-balancing capabilities.""The initial setup was quite complex.""It would be very nice to have a GUI that can be used by any administrator, and not just people who have experience with Docker.""Areas for improvement are the privacy of container management and the documentation. In the next release, I would like to see best practices on how to manage distributed containers and networks.""The solution's stability could be improved.""More integrations with other platforms would be beneficial.""Sometimes the basic support is a bit difficult if you have a firewall and cloud servers behind the firewall and then try to implement the backup solution, it is a bit difficult to do by yourself.""I think this solution needs better security due to more risks from the outside world."

    Reviews from Real Users

    Mirantis Container Cloud stands out among its competitors for a number of reasons. Two major ones are its deployment of images and the portability of its containers. PeerSpot users take note of the advantages of these features in their reviews:

    Cristina C., Test Architect at a tech services company, writes of the solution, “The idea that you can configure an image, deploy it, and it can be reused and redeployed with the same setup over and over again is a valuable feature.

    A DevOps Engineer at a tech services company, notes, “I like that Mirantis’ main products of containers are very portable. Any possible issues, problems, or troubles are fixed with improvements of the platform itself. Any constraints that Mirantis [has], have been fixed with other products or features that Mirantis provides.”
