Improving security insights has been helpful but inconsistent vulnerability tracking needs attention
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
The machine learning capability in Lacework FortiCNAPP is used for threat detection.
Automated policy recommendation helps to improve my security measures in general.
I usually use certain policies in my workspace, like if there are some alerts or something.
Continuous compliance and security monitoring are good, but they need more improvement in the vulnerabilities part.
What needs improvement?
The vulnerability part is not systematically organized; it is all clumsy in the web UI, and it is not user-friendly.
Regarding improvements, the vulnerability part, recent changes with user management, and Fortinet IM coming into place, which is not helpful at all because it cuts out the automation part, are the most important things.
Lacework FortiCNAPP should have a new clean UI and ease of access for the users as that should be the main concern.
There are limitations regarding the scalability of Lacework FortiCNAPP.
There are also more limitations with integrations like GitHub or any other pipeline, CI/CD, or ISD.
It is glitchy and works well only sometimes, and most of the time, the reports or other things are not properly calculated or circulated with the teams.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Lacework FortiCNAPP for about two years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The threat response time is good; we haven't faced any major threats as of now.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
There are limitations regarding the scalability of Lacework FortiCNAPP.
How are customer service and support?
Technical support from Fortinet is good; I get feedback and responses quickly.
How was the initial setup?
The installation of Lacework FortiCNAPP is quite complicated, especially regarding the settings.
We face some issues with troubleshooting the settings.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I see some big differences between Lacework FortiCNAPP and Microsoft.
The ease of access is better with Lacework FortiCNAPP, while Microsoft is more complex.
What other advice do I have?
I'm not aware of the pricing because I've seen it with my lead.
If I do these integrations, I see some impact on the DevSecOps workflow.
The integrations, like with GitHub, help with alerts directly over there.
The positive impacts I see from Lacework FortiCNAPP are majorly regarding security itself, but it has a long way to improve; there are many things to improve, and I have had many connects with the team to provide my feedback and requirements.
The review rating for Lacework FortiCNAPP is 6.

The ease of securely sharing documentation—with audit trails and granular access controls for different sets of users—has significantly streamlined our process. It eliminated the need for back-and-forth emails, while offering clear visibility into key metrics such as number of views and downloads. I would recommend this solution without hesitation; it's a true value-add for any organization. The trust, support, and partnership we’ve experienced ensure that product-related queries are addressed quickly and effectively. I truly appreciate this strong, customer-centric culture.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are always certain thoughts that come into play and we wanted them as feature, especially when it comes to prioritizing them. However, what seems to be good in the context of Safebase—is a clear mechanism or option to mark these as feature requests is available although it takes time (high-priority) items that require immediate attention

Helpful and responsive
What do you like best about the product?
SafeBase continues to be one of my favorite platforms to use on a daily basis. Its suite of tools—AIQA, the Knowledge Base, and the Security Portal—provides significant value to our customers and our internal teams alike. On top of that, the support from the SafeBase team has always been exceptional.
Crystal Culver, our Customer Success contact, has been instrumental in our success with the platform. She is consistently helpful, highly responsive, and always in the loop on internal updates—whether it's new features, tools, or upgrades to existing tools. I particularly appreciate her efforts in getting us early access to beta programs that are relevant to our needs. Her proactive communication and expertise make it seem like we are the most important customer in SafeBase's book of business.

What do you dislike about the product?
I wouldn't call it a dislike; however, it would be helpful to have a way to send documents within the portal to a customer contact as PDF's that are watermarked for their specific company when there is apprehension to logging into a portal.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SafeBase has been instrumental in centralizing the documentation that our customers and prospects frequently request during contract negotiations and renewals. The Knowledge Base feature streamlines our workflow by storing and surfacing responses to commonly asked questions, significantly reducing the time spent on repetitive tasks. As a small team, we’ve found the AIQA tool especially valuable—it continues to evolve and has meaningfully accelerated the completion of our security questionnaires from start to finish.

Excellent support and user-friendly interface

What impressed me the most about Safebase was, without a doubt, the outstanding support and the amazing people behind the platform. Amanda Haniff's team was always there for us during our recurring meetings and consistently went above and beyond to help , even during unexpected hours when we needed assistance.
The platform itself is very user-friendly, with an intuitive interface that makes it easy to navigate and interact with. Plus, the tutorials available online are incredibly thorough and made it easy for our team to get up to speed quickly.

What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the initial setup processes were more complex than expected, and we found ourselves reaching out to support multiple times to confirm we were on the right track. I would have appreciated having more hands-on support during that phase (someone from the team actively helping us test things and making sure everything was working as expected).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SafeBase is helping us streamline the security review process by centralizing and organizing our security posture information in a single, easily shareable Trust Center.

Cut Out the Manual Effort Immediately
What do you like best about the product?
Our organization has a very large footprint, so handling customer due diligence requests has always been met with some sort of friction due to a highly manual process. We set out to make life easier for our teams and for our customers, and SafeBase has provided the platform to do just that. We saw the number of total requests cut down instantly and expect that trend to continue as we seek to expedite our sales cycle. Everyone we've worked with – sales, customer success, technology – have all been easy to work with and extremely knowledgeable.
What do you dislike about the product?
This potentially could be a unique problem for our organization, but there are aspects of our trust center that we wish we could customize to fit our global customer base. Certain things like language translation buttons and the ability to further customize fields. Otherwise, the platform has been a huge help for us!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The manual effort of responding to customer due diligence requests was a large-scale issue for us. By implementing the trust center, we are able to quickly provide our customers with necessary information, respond to questionnaires quicker, and create a smoother process for all who are involved.
