Provides profound visibility into vulnerabilities across our cloud environment and outstanding customer support
Our most important features are those around entitlement, external exposure, vulnerabilities, and container security. The Wiz Security Graph provides a single prioritized view of risks in our cloud environments. The query functionality also helps us write custom queries and quick searches, allowing us to find vulnerabilities and prioritize externally exposed servers or resources. We can then use other tools to segregate outcomes and prioritize actions between teams based on the threats. Wiz's ability to scan every layer of our cloud environments without agents gives us profound visibility into the vulnerabilities. The scanner can search the ports and running services, detecting vulnerable packages in the server. The solution also helps in the storage of Cleartext credentials; it can see if files contain cloud or private keys, whereas an agent-based scanner cannot. This visibility allowed us to fast-track remediation by informing the relevant teams about their vulnerabilities. Having visibility into our risk detection with a contextual view for prioritizing potentially critical risks is essential. Our environment is segregated, so it's crucial to understand what will happen if a particular resource is exposed to the internet. We need some context in the back end, including whether it's a production, nonproduction, or development resource, and it's important to attach the misconfiguration risk order.

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"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 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 cost of the other solutions is comparable to Wiz."
"I wish the pricing was more transparent."
"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."
