"It's one of the leading players for cloud optimization. It's hard to find anything better.""It will automatically suggest areas for optimization.""The solution is scalable for our purposes.""The best feature I like about CloudCheckr CMx High Security is its simplicity. I love that it's not rocket science to use the solution. Even if you're not familiar with the cloud, you can easily figure out how to use CloudCheckr CMx High Security. You can use AWS, you can use Azure, and you can use GCP with the solution because the integration is quite simple. You can also use multi-cloud with it, and you could see the billing part. You'll have complete visibility into your cost which I love about the solution. I also love that data on any security issues and vulnerabilities are available on the go with CloudCheckr CMx High Security. You don't need to do anything different. Just run the scan and you'll have all these open findings in the tool, in terms of the priority level, so if it's critical, it will tell you, "It's critical," and you need to fix it right away.""The solution is mostly stable.""The most valuable feature of CloudCheckr CMx High Security is granular reporting. Additionally, the user interface is easy to use.""The recommendation section is pretty helpful.""The initial setup is straightforward."

Cons
"Needs integrations with other providers to provide a custom public cloud environment.""The installation and configuration can be tricky due to it being built on Remedy.""One of the major problems is that support is not so good."

More BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management Cons →

"Many features still need to be implemented in this tool.""The performance of the tool really needs to be improved.""Self-healing could be a bit smoother and a bit cleaner, easier to access and more functional. That would help.""What needs to be improved in CloudCheckr CMx High Security is integration. All the clouds are going quite fast, for example, all the cloud providers: Microsoft, Google, etc. CloudCheckr CMx High Security is good with AWS, no doubt about it, but with Azure and Google Cloud, I find that the solution is slow in that direction. If the vendor planned for CloudCheckr CMx High Security to be automated just for AWS, then it does make sense. If not, if the vendor is also targeting good integration with Google and Microsoft, then CloudCheckr CMx High Security integration needs improvement, in particular, it has to be faster. At the moment, its integration with Azure is not as good as its integration with AWS. With GCP, integration is nowhere.""CloudCheckr CMx High Security is complex. There are a lot of menus, and if you do not know what you are looking for you can get lost. However, the interface is self-explanatory. It's easy to understand where to go to get what you want.""The solution must improve its user interface.""The solution needs to work better with larger capacities of data.""The reporting and analytic capabilities are very limited."
