The best cloud security tool available!

  • December 18, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The tool is not only extremely easy to use but it was very easy to implement and configure for our environment. We were up and running in under an hour in our environment.
Wiz has stopped innovating and adding more features to its platform. This helps to reduce the number of vendors with access to your environment.
What do you dislike about the product?
This isn't a dislike but I wish the licensing model was more uniform across the products. i.e. Cloud security offering vs Code.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Wiz is addressing our need to monitor, detect and report on issues found in our cloud environment. Additionally, it is scanning our resources in the cloud for any vulnerabilities found and any resources that do not meet cloud security best practices (compliance).

We love Wiz!

  • December 18, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about Wiz is the Issues system. Toxic combinations of different finding types, which make it easy to prioritize the most severe/important issues and tackle them first.
What do you dislike about the product?
I guess the reporting could be improved. You can't export a hard file, it has to be a link that takes you into the platform, so anyone wanting to view the file has to have Wiz access.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helping us find problems in multiple areas, and showing us the issues we should tackle first. Also, I love the Journey/Champion Center features, which walk you through deployment to ensure you get everything setup. It's a nice self-updating checklist.

What do you like best about the product?
Everything about Wiz is why I decided to look into it, demo it and be a part of it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Haven't found anything to dislike! Great overall.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Finding things not easily visible in the cloud and assisting with keeping up with security.

One of the best tools i'v eused

  • December 15, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Wiz provides clear visibility into cloud risks without unnecessary noise. It simplifies vulnerability prioritization, making it easy for my team to focus on critical issues first. The UI is intuitive, and its proactive approach aligns with my focus on staying ahead of threats

What I appreciate most about Wiz is its ability to contextualize vulnerabilities across cloud assets. The risk-based prioritization saves us hours of triage, and the single-pane view ensures my team can respond efficiently without hopping between tools

The development pipeline at Wiz is something I really appreciate. New features are delivered rapidly and often just appear on the platform, rather than being pushed back to 'next quarter' repeatedly. This agility makes a noticeable difference in keeping up with evolving security needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
There’s nothing I actively dislike about the Wiz platform. However, I do wish Wiz would expand into the SSPM space, as I believe it would complement their existing offerings well. That said, it’s not a major drawback that this feature isn’t available yet
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Wiz is helping us tackle sprawling cloud infrastructure by providing clear visibility into misconfigurations, externally exposed assets, and vulnerabilities across our environments. It allows us to quickly identify and remediate risks that could otherwise be missed, ensuring our cloud posture remains secure and compliant. This level of insight and prioritization significantly reduces the time and effort needed to manage cloud security at scale

A cloud security tool for everyone, from developers to CISOs

  • October 09, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Above all, the simple integration into the cloud platforms is very convenient. Wiz is cloud agnostic and is therefore a very good fit for us.

Wiz also has a very good overview and allows you to drill down across different levels. This makes it very pleasant to use and is very informative. The evaluation from a finding to an issue supports prioritization enormously and helps us as an organization to focus on the essential issues. Wiz is also very fast at displaying emerging threats in the platform and showing the risks to our resources. A big plus from the SOC / CISO perspective.

The ability to organize cloud resources in projects, which in turn can be controlled granularly via RBAC and provided with dedicated integrations, makes Wiz a tool that we have been able to introduce very well throughout the entire IT organization.

The support from Wiz is good and fast. We receive quick feedback and good support on our tickets.

The further development of the platform should be emphasized. The features that Wiz had when we introduced it were already great and in the 2 years Wiz has developed enormously. So fast that we can't keep up with introducing these features in the organization.

I am delighted to have found a security tool in Wiz that is not only useful for the security departments, but also helps the IT teams and is used and appreciated by them. Wiz has brought the maturity of our cloud forward.
What do you dislike about the product?
Wiz is a little weak when it comes to reporting functions for management. The dashboard functions are basically good and clear, but more suited to techies. So far, we have not been able to create any reports for management without exporting and otherwise preparing data. If there were more options here in the future, that would be another plus for Wiz.

The data export options are limited, and it is difficult to export data for very large cloud environments.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Wiz gives us a central overview of cloud assets, their configuration, findings in the assets, how they are related to each other and what risks are associated with them. This helps us to prioritize problems and harden the cloud. There are also threat detection and forensic features. With Wiz, we can manage the security of our cloud from a single tool.

Enhanced security profiling and predictive analysis in diverse industries

  • September 30, 2024
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

We are a partner and develop Wiz opportunities here in Brazil and Latin America. We already have some customers using Wiz as a DSPM platform. We use it in various industries, like retail, where it is used for security profiling and predictive analysis to identify risks. There is also a global industrial company using Wiz, but I cannot disclose its name.

How has it helped my organization?

The platform offers granularity in visibility, which is essential for understanding our risks and threats. We implement a maturity report to provide our customers with a cloud maturity idea using Wiz to identify and suggest actions to enhance their environment's resilience and availability.

What is most valuable?

The granularity of visibility that the platform provides is the most valuable aspect. It shows all details of our sources, which helps in understanding the risks and threats within the system. Additionally, the platform's integration capabilities allow us to see various operational systems through Wiz.

What needs improvement?

In Brazil, the cost is a significant issue due to the currency exchange rate. Wiz is not a cheap solution, and it is hard to prove cost efficiency to customers. While it improves security and maturity, reducing costs is challenging due to it being expensive.

How are customer service and support?

WIZ does not have local support in Brazil. However, Century Data has an engineering team who support the initial calls with a local Knowledge base.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We previously used SentinelOne, which is XDR and protects servers or workstations but does not offer Wiz's DSPM capabilities.

How was the initial setup?

Customers have told us that Wiz is easier to implement than Orca. Both technologies are agentless, but Wiz is simpler to deploy.

What was our ROI?

The local cost of Wiz in Brazil is high, making it difficult to achieve a significant return on investment. While it enhances security and maturity, the high cost in Brazil makes it challenging to demonstrate cost reduction.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The cost depends on workload, features, and modules, and it is not inexpensive. Other technologies, like Orca, a competitor, are also expensive.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

I did evaluate Orca previously.

What other advice do I have?

I recommend Wiz for customers who need more maturity in their operations. It provides extensive visibility and granularity, essential for managing security and operational risks.

I'd rate the solution ten out of ten.

Great user experience and coverage

  • September 05, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Wiz provides complete visibility of our cloud environments. It replaces so many other one off solutions and gives us confidence on the security of our environment. Some other tools are super noisy, but Wiz includes more context about the actual risk of the issue while factoring in different sources of data.

Their vulnerability management product has become really great and easy to use. It is very easy to prioirtize different applications, and generating SBOM of your environment is useful as well. The runtime validation of dependencies gives extra peace of mind. This was super helpful in our compliance journey.

I also like their cloud events management solution, it was very easy to set up with both AWS and Azure and it comes with many canned threat detection alerts (you can also create your own).

Overall, super easy to set up and get complete visibility of your environments. No agents to deploy.

Requesting new features and other small updates to the platform is easy and their support team is responsive. Any issue that I've reported is resolved shortly after.
What do you dislike about the product?
Email reports could be improved, rather than just sending out csv files.

I don't have any other complaints.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Discovery and management of security issues, compliance reporting, malicious event detection

Impressive Experience and Rapid Deployment

  • August 23, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We enaged with Wiz quite a while ago to run a proof of value within our orgninisation. Right from first contact we found all Wiz representitives to be professional, friendly & super passionate about the platform.

We have now fully deployed the platform and I am impressed with the ease of deployment and also the very short time it takes to begin gaining the value. The trickiest part for us is onboarding our operational teams, but Wiz do make it very easy to allow only relevent access to each operational team via a "projects" feature.

Its very early in our journey with the platform so time will tell if we continue to keep that value after the initial hump where we have more to remidiate. But given the speed at which the Wiz teams are releasing features the future of our partnership with Wiz looks very bright.

I'd also like to add that the Customer Support experiance with Wiz has been some of the best I have experianced. The support teams ares very quick to respond and have the skills needed to assist. Also worth mentioning is the Wiz documentation and included onboarding academy videos are very good.
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly so far there is nothing to dislike
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before we deployed Wiz we struggled to put together data from our security tooling to provide priority of where our teams need to start. Wiz helps cut through that by providing clear attack paths.

Wiz is the cloud security tool that just keeps giving...

  • August 20, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Wiz is the market leader and has been for years. This means they could just sit back and enjoy the profits of their labor. However, that is not their approach. We still have regular calls with our Wiz success team and they go over monthly new features. They add features that we need like we are their only customer. It is incredible how much R&D they have. From CSPM, to DSPM. etc. I usually prefer to have separate, best of breed tools for each of these but with Wiz, they have proven me wrong. They are able to integrate each of these critical security capabilities into a single framwork that helps us scan our configurations, data types, user access, etc all in one.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are always downsides to every tool. While I am not in the tool daily as much as the engineers, I do notice that the search and report/export features sometimes is confusing, due to the granular features. I would like to sometimes search via user or host name and you might be forced to use IP or vice versa. However, since they deploy GUI and feature updates on a monthly or more frequent basis, this will likely be resolved soon.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I would have to purchase at least 3 separate solutions if I didn't use Wiz. A vuln scanner, CSPM and DSPM.

Very good product

  • August 20, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The graph-based visibility with the powerfull security graph is very usefull for our risk priorization.
I use Wiz every day and it's easy to work (complet documentation and a nice Wiz Academy).
We deployed Wiz easyly on the top of ours Cloud Organization (GCP, AWS and Azure) .
What do you dislike about the product?
Some falses positives could be existing but Wiz support is very reactive with us
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
During the Wiz deployment, we needed to increase the number of project subtrees within the Wiz solution. The support team was very responsive in understanding our needs and evolving this limit within the Wiz solution.
