Find out what your peers are saying about Palo Alto Networks, Wiz, Microsoft and others in Container Security."We haven't faced any major issues in one and a half years of use."
"Initial setup is straightforward. It only takes 15 minutes to deploy."
"Amazon EKS can be used to implement and create clusters."
"It's the best option for medium or large enterprises."
"What I found most valuable in Amazon EKS is its maturity as a cloud computing technology."
"It is the best service because it has proper security packages."
"The feature that I have found most valuable is that it is very user-friendly."
"The stability is excellent."
"What I found most valuable in Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks is the VAS, such as the web application and API security. I feel that VAS adds a lot of value, mainly because it gives visibility through the application layer and threat detection features."
"Prisma Cloud is quite simple to use. The web GUI is powerful. Prisma Cloud scans the overall architecture of the AWS network to identify open ports and other vulnerabilities, then highlights them."
"The solution will streamline and minimize manual efforts."
"The most valuable feature of Prisma Cloud is WAF (web application firewall)."
"It provides good visibility and control regardless of the complexity."
"The CVEs are valuable because we used to have a tool to scan CVEs, at the language level, for the dependencies that our developers had. What is good about Prisma Cloud is that the CVEs are not only from the software layer, but from all layers: the language, the base image, and you also have CVEs from the host. It covers the full base of security."
"I would say Twistlock is a fairly sophisticated tool."
"Integration is very easy. And because it supports security that spans multi- and hybrid-cloud environments, it's very easy to use."
"The solution could be improved by adding monitoring, filtering, and logging capabilities to its current CloudWatch features."
"The solution should include a popup for clusters so that all relevant information is visible at the bottom of a page."
"The connectivity could be better."
"They could add logging features. At present, we use external tools to increase and decrease the number of instances."
"The overall stability of the product should be improved to prevent any loss of data."
"The dashboard needs to be more user-friendly."
"The graphical user interface could be better."
"An area for improvement in Amazon EKS is the user experience. The platform could be more user-friendly. Only an expert can manage and use it."
"This solution is more AWS and Azure-centric. It needs to be more specific on the GCP side, which they are working on."
"Though Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks provides excellent security, is a pioneer in this space, and knows what it's doing, from a user perspective, it would have been better if it was a little easier to use."
"In terms of improvement, there are some small things like hardening and making sure the Linux resources are deployed well but that's more at an operational level."
"Prisma Cloud supports generating CSV files, but I would also like it to generate PDF files for reporting."
"When it comes to compliance, the issue is that when we are exporting the reports, there is only a single compliance option. If I need to report on multiple compliance requirements, that feature isn't available. For example, I made a single report for ISO 27000 but I can't correlate it with GDPR."
"There are hundreds of built-in policies for AWS and Azure, but GCP and Oracle are not covered as much as AWS. There is a lot of work to do on that part. There is, obviously, a tiny bit of favoritism towards AWS because it has the most market share."
"One thing that is missing is Cloud Run runtime security—serverless. That would be great to have in the tool. It's not that easy to have Cloud Run in specific environments."
"We'd like to have more native integration with clouds and additional security checks in the future."
