Quick to implement, solves the problem

  • January 31, 2025
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We've been using Wiz Essentials for about a year now and it's proving one of those rare security products that genuinely solves a problem rather than just creating new ones. It's quick to implement, simple to use, doesn't require security specialists or need the team to go on endless training courses to master and makes the vulnerability management problem actually manageable.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much, it's expensive but probably no more than it's competitors and they're willing to negotiate.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It turns a very long list of CVE's into a manageable, prioritised list of issues that present real risk to be addressed.

From Rapid7 to Wiz

  • January 16, 2025
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Wiz has a rich list of integrations with all of our different cloud and coding platforms. Furthermore, the attack path visualization features are an innovative approach to adding context to any and all vulnerabilities. Additionally, Wiz has been extremely easy to implement compared to our previous Rapid7 solution.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find the licensing model to be a bit convoluted compared to previous experiences.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A major initiative for our firm continues to be further cloud adoption and Wiz has been a major help when it comes to securing that vision.

Ease of install
UI and overall usability
Power user options, very powerful under the hood
Surfaces lots of actionable insights and hides away alot of the noise

We've found minimal negatives so far.
Licencing is becoming more fragmented but overall pretty good.
Wiz Defend and Wiz Code are both excellent but licencing requirements prevented us from purchasing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Wiz helps us bring our software engineers along on our security evolution, allowing our Security Team more time for focus on big problems.

Product has grown into an essential part of our Cloud Security

  • January 13, 2025
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use and the ability for us to have our application teams get just the information they needed was why we selected the product. Getting vulnerabilites and misconfigurations to the our applications teams and holding them accountable gives us a very strong cloud security posture - much stronger than our on premise security posture.

We were an early customer of Wiz and they have been very responsive to making improvements based on our feedback. The product has changed considerably and now has more features than we need, instead of not enough. We pay Wiz to be smarter than we are about secure configurations and they have been.
What do you dislike about the product?
The licensing is the first grump but only in that I wish it were less, not that it is excessively pricey. It is competitive with MS Sentinel but I wish it were 1/2 the cost. It's a lot easier to argue against native tools when it is cheaper. Their realtime linux agent isn't near cost competitive for so we can't even consider it.

Wiz does not support on-premise data centers and it would greatly simplify our lives if it did. Everyone at our company prefers our cloud vulnerability and misconfiguration system over our on-premise system by a wide margin.

Every tool that I've seen in this space that attempts to point out overly privileged accounts generates a high noise to signal ratio in a complex environment such as ours. We turn the Wiz IAM rules off to avoid the chatter. If you need a program to manage your identity security and you have a sophisticated environment, I would suggest you look for a sophisticate dedicated IAM tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We know that we don't know what we don't know and Wiz fills in that gap for cloud security. It is an essential tool in our cloud security toolkit.

Pushing the responsibility for fixing issues to the application teams works best when the application teams get the right information to identity and fix the issues. Wiz does this for us.

Excellent product with rapid feature releases and technology adoption

  • January 10, 2025
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Wiz makes identifying and fixing cloud vulnerabilities a breeze. Its attack path tools clearly map how threats could exploit weaknesses, tying them directly to business risks. This helps our team focus on what matters most.

The ability to connect vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and data exposure in one view is a game-changer. It’s intuitive, detailed, and saves tons of time. The platform delivers incredible value for cloud security. Onboarding was lightning fast and Wiz constantly delivers massive improvements and updates to match emerging technologies in the products it scans.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only real downside for us is the granularity of the platform. The reporting functions are somewhat limited, especially for management-level summaries. While we can customize and create everything we need from a technical and remediation perspective, we often need to export and manually prepare data to create reports suitable for leadership.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We currently operate a multi-cloud platform with multiple tenants of each cloud type. Securing these can be tedious at times and difficult to create a single pane of glass. Wiz helps perform this for exposure management, vulnerabilities, and help massively with visibility and risk analysis.

Depth of visibility, understanding my posture and risk
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI is confusing at times, with multiple layers of drawers, buttons, and hidden button for some actions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mostly another checkpoint that "nothing changed" beyond expected changes in cloud configuration

Wiz.io ensures our event ticketing platforms remain secure, reliable, and trusted so that we can focus on what we do best, serving our clients in the entertainment industry. We also particularly love the built-in guidance within each feature/section that guide us from setting up to operations.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI could be benefited from more logical grouping as opposed to individual feature seemingly unrelated with each other.

Wiz fills the security gaps that we otherwise do not have, serving vital role in protecting our cloud platforms while satisfying compliance.

What do you like best about the product?
The UI layout is very user friendly and easy to use. Within the application there are multiple ways to dig into the details of a problem without having to search through the rest of the UI to find it. The ability to directly link out to the cloud resource that you're currently looking at is very useful. The wiz customer support has been on point as well, quick turnaround on questions and help.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like the confusion around findings versus issues

Its solving our problem of insight within our Azure environment which allows us to better secure our resources.
