We performed a comparison between Mirantis Container Cloud and Snyk based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Container Security solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Atlas security graph is pretty cool. It maps out relationships between components on AWS, like load balancers and servers. This helps visualize potential attack paths and even suggests attack paths a malicious actor might take."
"The solution is a good alerting tool."
"I did a lot of research before signing up and doing the demo. They have a good reputation as far as catching threats early on."
"Cloud Native Security offers attack path analysis."
"It is advantageous in terms of time-saving and cost reduction."
"The offensive security where they do a fix is valuable. They go to a misconfiguration and provide detailed alerts on what could be there. They also provide a remediation feature where if we give the permission, they can also go and fix the issue."
"The ease of use of the platform is very nice."
"The real-time detection and response capabilities overall are great."
"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."
"The most valuable aspect is the excellent support. In addition, the billing system is really easy to understand."
"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."
"You need to make an architectural runway before actually starting to implement Docker Compose, especially in a distributed environment."
"One of the most valuable feature is its scalability because it is easy to work with. Even though I haven't fully removed it before, it's simple to get started and develop further. It's comparable to working with languages like C++ and Python. Python. It is easy to understand and more user-friendly."
"The product's initial setup phase is simple."
"Now it is easier to set up the development environment and also to test the applications on the pipelines."
"If we compare legacy application support to Docker, it's a superior product."
"Our customers find container scans most valuable. They are always talking about it."
"Snyk performs software composition analysis (SCA) similar to other expensive tools."
"The solution's Open Source feature gives us notifications and suggestions regarding how to address vulnerabilities."
"Snyk has given us really good results because it is fully automated. We don't have to scan projects every time to find vulnerabilities, as it already stores the dependencies that we are using. It monitors 24/7 to find out if there are any issues that have been reported out on the Internet."
"Snyk helps me pinpoint security errors in my code."
"The most valuable feature of Snyk is the SBOM."
"Provides clear information and is easy to follow with good feedback regarding code practices."
"Snyk categorizes the level of vulnerability into high, medium, and low, which helps organizations prioritize which issues to tackle first."
"One area for improvement could be the internal analysis process, specifically the guidance provided for remediation."
"Their search feature could be better."
"We've found a lot of false positives."
"While it is good, I think the solution's console could be improved."
"The categorization of the results from the vulnerability assessment could be improved."
"Sometimes the Storyline ID is a bit wacky."
"They need more experienced support personnel."
"We can customize security policies but lack auditing capabilities."
"There could be an automation feature included in the product. It will speed up application processes and will not require scripting codes."
"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."
"This product will only be useful if it can successfully run legacy applications in the cloud."
"I feel that the product lacks to offer a proper health status of the images which are running, making it an area where improvements are required."
"The solution's stability could be improved."
"In my previous years, I have brainstormed about the development of Container software. I have recently shifted focus, but the knowledge gained from those were really helpful. In my experience, Containers have their own complexities and to implement them, open source information is crucial. A software with new features would be beneficial. I suggest to implement a flow-based approach for container sequences, similar to Google Cloud's machine learning. The current process of deploying containers involves too many steps, and a more streamlined method would be appreciated. I've even automated deployment using APIs. Overall, simplifying container management and deployment processes would be valuable."
"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."
"I think this solution needs better security due to more risks from the outside world."
"It lists projects. So, if you have a number of microservices in an enterprise, then you could have pages of findings. Developers will then spend zero time going through the pages of reports to figure out, "Is there something I need to fix?" While it may make sense to list all the projects and issues in these very long lists for completeness, Snyk could do a better job of bubbling up and grouping items, e.g., a higher level dashboard that draws attention to things that are new, the highest priority things, or things trending in the wrong direction. That would make it a lot easier. They don't quite have that yet in container security."
"The solution's reporting and storage could be improved."
"Snyk's API and UI features could work better in terms of speed."
"The way Snyk notifies if we have an issue, there are a few options: High vulnerability or medium vulnerability. The problem with that is high vulnerabilities are too broad, because there are too many. If you enable notifications, you get a lot of notifications, When you get many notifications, they become irrelevant because they're not specific. I would prefer to have control over the notifications and somehow decide if I want to get only exploitable vulnerabilities or get a specific score for a vulnerability. Right now, we receive too many high vulnerabilities. If we enable notifications, then we just get a lot of spam message. Therefore, we would like some type of filtering system to be built-in for the system to be more precise."
"Generating reports and visibility through reports are definitely things they can do better."
"There are some new features that we would like to see added, e.g., more visibility into library usage for the code. Something along the lines where it's doing the identification of where vulnerabilities are used, etc. This would cause them to stand out in the market as a much different platform."
"The tool needs improvement in license compliance. I would like to see the integration of better policy management in the product's future release. When it comes to the organization that I work for, there are a lot of business units since we are a group of companies. Each of these companies has its specific requirements and its own appetite for risk. This should be able to reflect in flexible policies. We need to be able to configure policies that can be adjusted later or overridden by the business unit that is using the product."
"Compatibility with other products would be great."
