Plerion Cloud Security Platform (Contract)

What do you like best about the product?

I really appreciate how Plerion helps us focus on what actually matters by giving targeted, prioritised recommendations instead of overwhelming us with alerts. The contextual exploitability analysis is a game changer, letting us address the most relevant risks without wasting time on low-priority issues. Integrating code security into our PR workflow means we catch problems early, and the platform makes it easy to find and clean up legacy resources that were cluttering our environment.

What do you dislike about the product?

If I had to point to a downside, it’s that adopting a batch-driven approach still requires some manual effort to triage findings. While this is a big improvement on being buried in automated tickets, it does mean we need to stay disciplined about conducting regular reviews. There’s also a bit of a learning curve in understanding how to get the most value from the scanning controls and risk prioritisation features.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use Plerion to cut through the noise and focus on the security issues that actually matter. It helps us understand what is most important to look at and remediate, and then track our progress over time. Before Plerion, it was hard to prioritise and we spent a lot of time chasing low‑impact items. Now we have much clearer visibility of our risk, can make better decisions about where to invest effort, and can demonstrate improvement to the business with real data.

What do you like best about the product?

I love how Plerion consolidated our cloud security visibility and enabled us to scale without manual overhead. The onboarding was quick, and configuring custom asset groups unlocked real value for prioritising vulnerability management by business impact. The AI-driven Pleri handles remediation planning, reporting, and data extraction, saving us countless hours. Integrations with Jira and Slack are transformative, letting findings flow directly to our ticketing system with the right context for developers.

What do you dislike about the product?

The main area for improvement is collaboration—I'd like to see better support for sharing tasks, reports, and saved prompts across the organisation. Once we can manage and share these as a team, the platform will be perfect for our needs.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Before implementing Plerion, we had limited visibility into vulnerabilities across our AWS environments. While AWS native alerts provide some level of monitoring, they are fragmented and require significant manual effort to consolidate and analyse.
Monitoring multiple environments became operationally challenging and time-consuming, making it difficult to prioritise risks and ensure we were addressing the most critical issues in a timely manner.

What do you like best about the product?

I really appreciate how Plerion's AI-assisted analysis reasons about vulnerabilities in the context of our actual infrastructure, reducing noise and surfacing what actually matters. The memory feature that encodes our service-to-team ownership has made automated ticket routing seamless, and the consolidation of configuration, identity, and vulnerability scanning into a single platform has eliminated unnecessary context-switching. The vulnerability analyst stands out by providing exploitability analysis specific to our environment, shifting us from reactive review to proactive, contextualised prioritisation. Overall, it's freed my time to focus on strategic work, not just triage.

What do you dislike about the product?

While the platform is excellent overall, the automated ticket workflow still needs refinement. Right now, it delivers comprehensive remediation plans, but we're working on making it provide step-by-step triage guidance instead. This would help developers address issues more efficiently without being overwhelmed by too much information at once.

Visibility and Security Management of our AWS Platform

What do you like best about the product?

I really appreciate how Plerion has centralized our security management across multiple AWS accounts, giving us a holistic view of our security posture. The onboarding was stellar, and the platform was easy for our DevOps team to adopt without deep infrastructure expertise. The centralized dashboard and the AI teammate, Pleri, make it easy to see top risks and get practical remediation advice. It has saved us the cost of hiring a dedicated security specialist and made security part of our daily workflow.

What do you dislike about the product?

While Plerion covers a lot, I would love to see it further consolidate our security stack by integrating code and dependency scanning. Currently, we still rely on external services for those needs, and having everything unified within Plerion would reduce our tool count and further streamline our processes.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Before Plerion, we had several AWS cloud security monitoring services in place, but the volume of alerts made it difficult to quickly identify what actually needed attention. There was a lot of noise to work through, and AWS native tooling doesn't provide remediation guidance, so for every flagged issue our team had to independently research the right fix, which added real time overhead.

Plerion solved both of those problems. It separates signal from noise intelligently, so we're focused on what genuinely matters, and the AI assistant provides contextual remediation suggestions directly alongside each finding — significantly reducing the time we spend resolving issues.

The multi-account dashboard has also been a big win. We have multiple AWS accounts across dev, staging and production, and having a single place to view our overall security posture and drill into specific accounts has removed a lot of friction. The IAM permissions monitoring has been particularly valuable — Plerion surfaces elevated permissions across our accounts and suggests remediation steps, making it practical to systematically work through permission hygiene at scale.

Overall it's made our security operations meaningfully more efficient and given us clear visibility across our entire AWS footprint.

What do you like best about the product?

I love how Plerion centralises all our security data in one easy-to-use platform, giving us immediate visibility into our top risks and actionable remediation advice. The onboarding process and ongoing customer support have been stellar, and the platform has enabled our engineering team to manage security without needing to hire a dedicated specialist.

What do you dislike about the product?

While Plerion covers our cloud security needs well, we still rely on separate tools like SonarCloud and Snyk for code and dependency scanning. It would be ideal if Plerion could consolidate these features so we could further simplify our security toolset and workflow.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Plerion gives us centralized visibility into our security posture across multiple AWS accounts. Before, tracking risks was ad hoc and knowledge was siloed. Now we can quickly see the top priorities, get fast remediation guidance through Pleri, and the broader team can easily understand where we stand at any time. It’s also saved us from having to hire a dedicated security specialist, since our existing team can handle it as part of their daily workflow.
