Cloud cost observability has transformed multi-cloud savings and now drives accountable spending
In terms of improvements needed for Amnic - Cloud Cost Observability Platform, I think mostly if we add more AI features and improve broader cost service integration, including deeper integration with more cloud-native third-party tools and support for additional SaaS cost management, it could enhance the platform. We can also add more customizable dashboards for personalized KPIs to enhance visibility, along with providing role-based views for finance and engineering executives. Lastly, enhancing forecasting with AI-based predictions, automation remediation, and more granular cost insights would be beneficial, along with adding multi-cost governance and user training or adoption tutorials to aid new users. Additionally, the best thing would be to add playbooks, tutorials, and FinOps guidelines where new users in the industry can easily understand what we are using and how to use it. Adding multi-cloud governance capability would also be greatly appreciated and helpful for any organization. I chose 8 out of 10 primarily because there are more areas to add on. I believe Amnic - Cloud Cost Observability Platform can reach 10 out of 10, but it needs to improve in specific areas such as global governance across regions and cloud providers since larger organizations seek control over financial factors. This is crucial as significant costs can increase operational overhead, prompting them to look for certain features. If basic training, AI automation integration, and multi-cloud scaling are included in Amnic - Cloud Cost Observability Platform, it could definitely improve and reach 10 out of 10. Regarding any additional improvements needed for Amnic - Cloud Cost Observability Platform that I haven't mentioned, it would help us greatly if we could receive optimization support from Amnic - Cloud Cost Observability Platform, as the current support model is something that could improve for future users and organizations.

Rapid risk detection has transformed how I uncover hidden vulnerabilities in new applications
Rapid7 InsightAppSec offers excellent features including a cloud-based platform that allows for detailed breakdowns of information into more digestible bits. The platform is user-friendly with a broad range of tools, although it does require quite a bit of a learning curve. It allows me to aggregate data and put it into presentations to send to executives about the security status across the entire enterprise. My favorite aspect of the user-friendly interface of Rapid7 is the primary cloud-based dashboard, which I find most useful. I love that even inside a browser, the intuitive help options are available for figuring out what things are, whether it's hovering over a particular option for insights or using right-click features that offer tools and tips on managing the vulnerabilities when found. The interface is very clean, not overly convoluted or difficult to navigate, which I do enjoy. Rapid7 has positively impacted my organization by allowing me to discover vulnerabilities, both publicly known and zero-day, much faster and efficiently than I ever did in the past, ultimately saving the company a lot of money in compliance issues, fines, and possibly even lawsuits. The number of vulnerabilities I am discovering has improved by almost thirty seven percent in the last two years alone. Remediation especially has increased significantly because I am finding these vulnerabilities faster, and Rapid7 provides tips on how to remediate or harden against them, whether through hardening options or upgrading to better versions, which does save the company money.

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Amnic - Cloud Cost Observability Platform is one of the best tools we are currently using in our organization."
"Amnic - Cloud Cost Observability Platform has positively impacted my organization by reducing my cloud costing significantly."
"If you are figuring out how your resource costs can be saved through real-time basis analysis, Amnic - Cloud Cost Observability Platform is a really good tool."
"I value how the prompt-based root cause analysis works for my team because it creates reports in a manner that is understandable for a specific role, with details tailored to that role and how they view the information."
"It's very easy to use and user-friendly, and it does the job."
"Rapid7 InsightAppSec helps us in both regulatory compliance and in strengthening our security posture."
"In Rapid7 InsightAppSec, a distinctive feature is the provision of a CDM for integrating web servers and web applications. To establish the connection between these applications, you only need to paste the provided CDN into your metadata. Once connected, every piece of information, including vulnerabilities, can be accessed. It also offers demo sessions."
"Relatively speaking, InsightAppSec is good compared to Insight VM."
"It is very convenient to get reports from the tool, which offers high-level environmental statistics."
"The initial setup for us was easy enough. We didn't face too many issues. Deployment took maybe 30 minutes. It's quite quick and doesn't cause too much trouble at the outset."
"When considering DAST, it is not attributed to a singular feature but rather the capabilities of the engine that provides a genuine penetration testing experience and delivers insightful reports."
"Rapid7 MDR has positively impacted my organization by allowing me to discover vulnerabilities, both publicly known and zero-day, much faster and efficiently than I ever did in the past, ultimately saving the company a lot of money in compliance issues, fines, and possibly even lawsuits."
 

Cons

"I think Amnic - Cloud Cost Observability Platform can be improved by adding more agents, although it already has many effective agents for prompting."
"I chose seven out of 10 because there are a lot of tools already available in the market, such as Zero Cloud, and both AWS and Azure also provide their own costing report portals."
"Regarding any additional improvements needed for Amnic - Cloud Cost Observability Platform that I haven't mentioned, it would help us greatly if we could receive optimization support from Amnic - Cloud Cost Observability Platform, as the current support model is something that could improve for future users and organizations."
"However, if your workloads are frequent, it may not be needed."
"There is room for improvement in Rapid7 InsightAppSec by giving clients the ability for extra columns on reports and enabling the extraction of remediation reports into a CSV format. Currently, the PDF format is cumbersome to go through when dealing with thousands of pages."
"The reporting feature of Rapid7 InsightAppSec needs improvement as it currently provides basic reports."
"The interface should be a little bit easier to manage. Sometimes, the logic that they use is kind of strange."
"I would like more details of what the product can do."
"I required a solution to manage on-premises, but I was not as satisfied as expected."
"The technical support from Rapid7 is not bad, but the response time can be quite slow sometimes."
"We get a lot of false positives during the tests."
"The interface should be a little bit easier to manage. Sometimes, the logic that they use is kind of strange. They need to work a little bit more on their interface to make it more understandable. The interface is the only problem. I'm using Rapid7, which is very intuitive. There are other applications available in the market with a better interface. They can include more techniques or options to test different types of security because the templates are limited. It would be great to see them follow the MITRE ATT&CK framework or what is there in tools like Veracode and Synopsys."

"I rate Rapid7 InsightAppSec’s pricing an eight out of ten."
"I'm not sure how much it costs exactly, but I know it's expensive."
"Its price is competitive. It is not expensive."
