We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution helped free other staff to work on other projects or other tasks. We basically just had to do a bunch of upfront configuring. With it, we do not have to spend as much time in the console.""The visibility is the best part of the solution.""PingSafe can integrate all your cloud accounts and resources you create in the AWS account, We have set it up to scan the AWS transfer services, EC2, security groups, and GitHub.""The most valuable features of PingSafe are the asset inventory and issue indexing.""Our previous product took a lot of man hours to manage. Once we got Singularity Cloud Workload Security, it freed up our time to work on other tasks.""Cloud Native Security is a tool that has good monitoring features.""All the features we use are equal and get the job done.""The UI is responsive and user-friendly."

"Support is very helpful.""The most valuable features are that it's easy to use and manage.""The most valuable feature is the security.""Customers find it invaluable to have the ability to check for vulnerabilities in an image before deployment, similar to a sandbox environment.""From what I understand, the initial setup is simple.""Aqua Security helps us to check the vulnerability of image assurance and check for malware.""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.""Valuable features include the ability to connect it to our Docker Hub where our images are stored, good integration with Slack, and the connection to the CV, to easily see which CVs are on each image."

"This solution has cut down on our development time and allows us to spin off new instances for inner development, testing, productions, and security testing.""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.""If we compare legacy application support to Docker, it's a superior product.""The initial setup was really easy and the deployment was fast and straightforward.""It is a stable solution. It is nearly perfect. I would rate the stability a ten out of ten.""The most valuable feature is its ease of use.""The product's initial setup phase is simple.""Very easy solution to use as it is intuitive."

Cons
"We are experiencing problems with Cloud Native Security reporting.""Cloud Native Security's reporting could be better. We are unable to see which images are impacted. Several thousand images have been deployed, so if we can see some application-specific information in the dashboard, we can directly send that report to the team that owns the application. We'd also like the option to download the report from the portal instead of waiting for the report to be sent to our email.""Bugs need to be disclosed quickly.""One of the issues with the product stems from the fact that it clubs different resources under one ticket.""PingSafe takes four to five hours to detect and highlight an issue, and that time should be reduced.""PingSafe is an excellent CSPM tool, but the CWPP features need to improve, and there is a scope for more application security posture management features. There aren't many ASPM solutions on the market, and existing ones are costly. I would like to see PingSafe develop into a single pane of glass for ASPM, CSPM, and CWPP. Another feature I'd like to see is runtime protection.""While it is good, I think the solution's console could be improved.""One area for improvement could be the internal analysis process, specifically the guidance provided for remediation."

More SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security Cons →

"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.""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.""Aqua Security lacks a lot in reporting.""I would like Aqua Security to look into is the development of a web security portal.""Since we are working from home, we would like to have the proper training for Aqua.""It's a bit hard to use the user roles. That was a bit confusing.""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.""The user interface could be improved, especially in terms of organization and clarity."

More Aqua Cloud Security Platform Cons →

"When it comes to the integration part, it's the basic functionality, but for any product, at the end of the day, security is extremely relevant. I personally feel like you have to constantly strive towards being more secure. You can never be 100% secure, and you have to work more toward security. It's as simple as that.""The solution would benefit in improvements made to the storage, cleaning up information from the disk, and reading logs.""I find Docker easier to use, but I gave it to an inexperienced developer and it took him a lot of time to understand.""I think this solution needs better security due to more risks from the outside world.""You need to have system knowledge to deploy the product. It should be improved.""The initial setup was quite complex.""There could be an automation feature included in the product. It will speed up application processes and will not require scripting codes.""With the Mirantis runtime being removed from Kubernetes, which is the industry-wide standard for orchestration of containers, I think it's going in a direction that is not super scalable."

    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.”
