What do you like best about Aqua Security?

After some growing pains, due to the size of our organization and the number of images we scan, it has been easy to implement docker image scanning into our build process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Aqua Security?

Some feature improvements that were often necessary for us to utilize portions of Aqua, took longer than expected and communicated to be completed. We had a request where we even included the source code changes that were needed from Aqua, and it still took almost 3 full quarters for the request to be completed. It felt like we understood the inner workings of that portion of the scan tool than their tech team and it was hard to have them understand the needed change. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Aqua Security solving and how is that benefiting you?

One of the bigger problems that Aqua has solved is the visibility that it provides us into the vulnerabilities that we have as we build docker images. We are even able to block builds from producing docker images to our artifact registry if they do not meet vulnerability requirements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
