What do you like best about the product?
Wiz is an incredible company. Their solutions have hit the right mark between visual representation of data, and actual technical insights. I've been incredibly impressed by it's balance of usability and powerful information. I've used a few different providers in the cloud security space, and Wiz is definately the leader for me.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can sometimes be hard to understand what new features I should be exploring. They incrementally improve the products at a fast rate, and it can be hard to keep up.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Full cloud security coverage across our multiple cloud platforms.

Quick to setup and clear view across our cloud environment

What do you like best about the product?
Agentless, quick to set up, no headaches. Best part: it doesn't drown you in alerts - it shows real attack paths, so you know what to fix first. The AI side is interesting and potentially in high demand - Mika answers tricky security questions and pulls reports in plain language, and the new agents (Green, Red, Blue) hint at where this is all heading.
What do you dislike about the product?
Licensing for WIZ Cloud and WIZ Code is the weak spot - it's rigid and not transparent enough, and figuring out what you actually need (and what it'll cost) takes more effort than it should.
Reporting could be more flexible. You also can't assign owners for fixing vulnerabilities, which makes remediation harder to track.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
One clear view across our cloud, with the noise filtered out, so a small team can focus on the risks that actually matter - less manual digging, faster fixes.

What do you like best about the product?
Wiz has been easy to adopt and get started with. Their release schedule is also something to look forward to, with new relevant features coming out frequently.
What do you dislike about the product?
While initial adoption is easy, there can be at times too much data. Also, while the platform provides good visibility, other reporting relies on exporting csv's, which takes manual work to make presentable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Increased visibility and better MTTR.
