Wiz is helping us better secure our company
What do you like best about the product?
Visibility and Team Ownership: Setting up projects and dashboards has helped our teams take ownership of their areas of the organization.
Risk Prioritization: We know exactly what to work on because Wiz helps identify assets with external exposure, vulnerabilities, data findings, misconfigurations, etc.
Solve issues, not just identify them: This is where I think Wiz has the secret sauce so to speak. Not only can it identify issues in your environment, but generating code fixes or steps how to remediate an issue makes it much easier for development teams to solve.
Setup: Integrations are seamless, easy to implement and work right away.
Dashboard: Allows you to quickly check each day the status of your environment and what needs to be tackled next.
Support Team: Support is fast and has a ton of helpful documents to assist you in the need arises.

What do you dislike about the product?
Custom Dashboards: The board views right now are limited to some predefined queries. While very good and useful. I would like to see this expanded in the future to allow more customizations.
Some of the views and issues do require some time in seat being in the application. If you want your dev team to be in the console, you will need to provide some training or use the integrations to send the information to them elsewhere.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lack of Visibility and Context: It can be hard to know exactly what is going on in your cloud environments and that's where Wiz has shined for us. Integrating from our code repository to our cloud service provides us with a really cool security graph that shows potential attack paths. The context of not only a vulnerability or exploit in your environment, but seeing how it impacts your organization is huge.
Overwhelming Security Alerts and "Alert Fatigue": While Wiz doesn't completely remove false positives, my team knows when alerts come in, it means action is needed.
Slow Remediation and Collaboration Issues: Remediation steps provided directly to the engineering teams shortens investigation time and allows our team to actually resolve issues rather than Jira tickets sitting in a backlog.
Vulnerability Management: Connecting to our code repository we can instantly create PRs to update packages in our repositories.

CIO review on Wiz
What do you like best about the product?
Wiz is intuitive, easy to use, and gives clear visibility into our environment while saving time with smart automation
What do you dislike about the product?
At times, Wiz can feel a bit overwhelming with the amount of data it surfaces, and some advanced features take time to fully understand. More streamlined reporting and customization options would make it even better
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Wiz helps us identify security risks across our cloud environment in real time, from misconfigurations to vulnerabilities. By having a unified view and automated prioritization, we can address the most critical issues faster and reduce risk. This saves time for the team, improves compliance, and strengthens overall security posture
Wiz's Product Expansion And Its Impact On Cloud Security
What do you like best about the product?
1- The way Wiz proactively gives us threat info, especially those alerts that come with ready-to-use searches to see if we're affected, has been super helpful for finding and fixing important weaknesses fast. It's now just part of what our security team does every day.
2- The querying in Wiz, based on KQL, is seriously strong and flexible. Being able to create our own specific searches means our team can really dig deep and spot anomalies in our environment that we wouldn't be able to do otherwise.
3- It's cool to see Wiz moving into other areas like Wiz Code and Defend. It shows they're not standing still and could become a central place for all our cloud security tools, which would be awesome.

What do you dislike about the product?
1 - Even though it's mostly comprehensive, the support for Google Cloud isn't quite as good as it is for AWS in some specific things, like how it handles tags and finds leftover domain names. It also feels like when we ask for GCP improvements, they don't always get get the attention they deserve.
2 - Most of the support folks we've dealt with have been fantastic, even helping us with things beyond what we originally asked. But with how fast Wiz is growing, we've noticed a slight dip in how quickly they get back to us sometimes, and the quality of the answers a be a bit hit or miss now and then.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Wiz enhances our security posture by providing a valuable complement to our existing tools. Its risk-based approach is particularly beneficial, allowing us to prioritize and address the most critical issues within our cloud environment. Furthermore, we leverage Wiz to streamline our regulatory reporting obligations. The seamless integration with Jira has significantly simplified our workflows, and its connectivity with our XDR and SIEM platforms enables efficient threat identification and triage by our security operations team

Quick setup, fast value, clear visibility, and actionable cloud security.
What do you like best about the product?
Wiz was quick and easy to set up. We found once it was set up there was a quick realization of value with the tool. It integrated quickly and smoothly with our other tools via APIs. The documentation was easy to understand and support was very helpful with guiding us through the entire set up. The interface is nice and clean with an intuitive onboarding guide built into the dashboard. We really like how quickly Wis was able to identify critical risks as well as place prioritization based on impact. This provided actionable insights into the cloud environment we did not have previously. I really like the agentless architecture that keeps things lightweight and easy to adapt the dynamic nature of the cloud.
What do you dislike about the product?
While Wiz excels in many areas, its pricing can be on the higher side for smaller teams or organizations, and the vast amount of data and alerts can sometimes feel overwhelming without proper tuning.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Wiz solves the tough challenge of getting full visibility across our multiple cloud environments by giving a clear, comprehensive view of all cloud assets and their vulnerabilities. One of its biggest strengths is its agentless approach with no need to install or manage vulnerability agents every time a VM spins up or shuts down. This was a challenge in ensuring every VM had a vulnerability agent on it. It even takes on the issues of serverless infrastructure like Docker and Kubernetes.
The best cloud security tool
What do you like best about the product?
As a cloud security engineer, Wiz stands out as one of the best platforms I've used. The user interface is intuitive and easy to navigate, making it efficient to manage security tasks. The platform offers a comprehensive suite of tools in one place, and the API options are robust, providing great flexibility for custom integrations. Deployment is very straightforward, thanks to detailed documentation, and the integration options are plentiful, allowing for seamless connections with other systems. Customer support is good. They are responsive and provide effective solutions when needed. Overall, it's a one-stop shop for all security needs, and I use it on a daily basis.
What do you dislike about the product?
There’s very little to dislike about Wiz. The platform is powerful and well-designed, but there’s always room for improvement in terms of streamlining certain features for even faster use. That said, these are minor issues compared to the overall quality of the platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Wiz solves critical problems around visibility and control over cloud assets. As a security engineer, having a clear view of all assets within the cloud environment is essential, and Wiz provides that visibility in a way that is easy to manage. It helps me track and monitor the security posture of every asset, ensuring nothing slips through the cracks. Additionally, Wiz allows for better control over these assets by identifying vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and risks in real-time. This proactive approach allows me to address potential issues before they become threats, which ultimately improves the security and efficiency of our systems. The centralized platform saves time and helps me maintain a higher level of security with less effort.
The Cloud Security Chutzpah We Needed for AWS & Azure
What do you like best about the product?
Wiz gave us a single pane of glass for cloud security .
This agentless and mostly hassle-free onboarding presented us a impressive cloud scanning and instant visibility.
We undeerstood along the way with Wiz platform that In cloud security, not every alert is an actual issue, and being able to tune out low/none-risk findings without losing visibility is priceless.
This is where we stopped chasing shadows and start fixing real vulnerabilities
Wiz allow us to beef up on code security, runtime scanning and live alerting all consdlidated to a single platform
at last their docuemtnation is amazing, all the menus and views and settings are explained from top to bottom which allow us to be self paced in learning how to use the platform best

What do you dislike about the product?
not such a drawback but a scope of work not fully present in the begininng
wiz is a high velocity evolving product, constantnly changes fixes and new add ons/features
requries us to keep track all the time on their release notes updates just to understand what changed or should have fixed

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Wiz gives me the confidence that I’m seeing everything in one place—misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, identity risks, and compliance gaps. It cuts through the noise and lets me focus on what truly needs fixing, making my job more strategic and less about chasing endless alerts
Best Cloud Security Platform!
What do you like best about the product?
I've been following Wiz for years and when we finally reached the need of a Cloud Security Platform, Wiz came first to mind. We've compared a few tools before we went ahead, but Wiz got significant advantage against competition.
Onboarding was extremely easy and we were up and running in a matter of days. The thing we love most about Wiz is how simple it actually is and how much information we get out of it. We've been able to identify and resolve critical issues quickly once we connected it to our cloud environments.
Wiz provides immense help with our security audits and helps us automate production deployments of infrastructure without introducing security issues.

What do you dislike about the product?
Not being able to create custom rules in Rego without upgrading the license is a pain
Creating new graph controls can be really laggy if the graph is big

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Securing a cloud environment which is big enough for a security team to struggle to keep an eye on is hard. Wiz helps solve that for us by giving us a clear single pane of glass view of our entire cloud infrastructure, with a hassle-free setup. Out of the box, there are enough rules to get started with, and they make a difference in how confident we are in our cloud security posture. As well as security, Wiz also has a number of rules focussed just on 'best practices' which have both taught us a few new tricks and alerted us to some anti-patterns in our IaC.
Our favorite cloud security platform
What do you like best about the product?
Our infrastructure is complex and constantly changing, deployed across all three major clouds. With Wiz, we gain the observability we always desired, as well as the expert knowledge needed to maintain the level of security our customers and partners expect.
Wiz's UI is easy to use and intuitive, it allows our security teams and DevOps to quickly identify, prioritize, vet, and remediate the vulnerabilities that actually matter. The fact that Wiz is constantly innovating and adding features keeps in the forefront of Cloud Security Platforms.
