Product Description

Wiz is a CNAPP that consolidates CSPM, KSPM, CWPP, vulnerability management, IaC scanning, CIEM, DSPM, and container and Kubernetes security into a single platform.

How do you position yourself against your competitors?

Wiz stands out from competitors by offering a comprehensive Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) built from the ground up with a single data layer, risk engine, user interface (UI), policy framework, and prioritization queue. Wiz disrupted the traditional agent-based cloud security model with an agentless, API-centered approach that contextualizes cloud risks with a security graph at the core of its product. Wiz enables customers to triage and correlate critical attack paths and produce high-fidelity results that any security or development team can interpret and respond to immediately. Customers can build holistic cloud security programs spanning prevention to detection and response in a single platform, leading to a lower total cost of ownership.

What do you like best about Wiz?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wiz?

Honestly so far there is nothing to dislike Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Wiz 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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Wiz?

Wiz was extremely easy to integrate in our infrastructure. It is versatile as it provides many ways to scan our infrastructure, such as Connector or CLI. Deploying WizCLI in our CI/CD pipeline was smooth and easy to implement and we get the results directy in the pipeline or in the Wiz Dashboard. We do use Wiz daily to check the status of our services, particularly since we connected GitHub. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wiz?

As Wiz should not be used only by security teams, it needs to better provide ways to create accesses to team and their relevant resources, to avoid the teams to get lost with the many information Wiz provides. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Wiz solving and how is that benefiting you?

Wiz is helping us to keep our Cloud infrastructure without any Critical or High severity issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Wiz?

Wiz does a lot of things right, and I hope they continue this for years to come. I love the UI, it's detailed, yet not too busy. The dashboards and widgets are thoughtfully designed, and allows for just enough customization. As for functionality and value, Wiz's ability to combine standard vulnerability data with other key environmental factors makes this product intelligent and actionable without hours of manual review. It saves time and effort, while making it easier to determine actual risk, and having those technical discussions with the teams who would be the "hands-on" the keyboard to remediate. Highly recommend. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wiz?

This isn't really a dislike, but more of a need -- SBOM is there, but it would be great to enhance this feature with the ability to include certain criteria for automated alerting sourced from the SBOM inventory. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Wiz solving and how is that benefiting you?

Vulnerability discovery, triage and overall management. Security and Compliance framework mapping and reporting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Wiz?

Wiz is enabling the infosec team to focus on issues instead of checking what is goin on everyday. Once you implement Wiz integrations with your systems including the ticketing and messaging tools you use, you can forget about daily manual steps. The ease to use is wonderful, the UX is 99% perfect and the support team is always there for you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Wiz?

Easy to use and navigate, great insights into your cloud environment, gives solid vulnerability detection along with insight into data/secrets stored in the environment, insecure configuration, correlation between vulnerabilities and external access gives real positives.

Installation is very straightforward, up and running within a day with real insights. Integration with multiple tenants or platforms gives a consolidated view of the environent.

Customer support is always great, quick response times from knowledgable staff. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wiz?

Will raise a lot of vulnerabilities around out of support software but does not have the insight into whether they are used or not, this may seem overwhelming at first. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Wiz solving and how is that benefiting you?

Before Wiz, we had no way to tell just how many open paths we had to the internet, this is the primary reason we purcahsed the tool. Straight away, it flagged VM's, storage and API's open to the internet through poor configuration and detected Malware on 3 servers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Wiz?

Wiz provides insight into our cloud environment that we otherwise would not have. The Data Security and External Exposure features have been particularly helpful in tracking down critical risks to our data and infrastructure. The team has been incredibly helpful and ready to jump in whenever needed. Overall, we've had a great experience with Wiz so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wiz?

No real downsides just yet. Setup was a little rough, but that is likely an environmental issue and not specific to the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Wiz solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have a robust cloud environment that is getting increasingly difficult to monitor. Wiz provides valuable insight into how we can secure our operations and where we need improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
