Room For Improvement

Seemplicity users want better integration, customization, UI, collaboration features, and enhancements in governance, security, and data flexibility.
AttackIQ needs improved onboarding, tool integrations, user-friendly features, and simplified workflows to enhance value and user experience.
Wiz needs improved dashboards, enhanced security features, smoother integrations, reduced costs, better FinOps, and fewer false positives.
It would be nice if customers could perform the aggregation themselves on the spot to reduce that bottleneck.
Senior Security Engineer at Omnissa
There is room for improvement in a generic approach to queue management and more proactive collaboration with security analysts, developers, and infrastructure teams on tickets.
Member And Investor at OpenWeb
With the introduction of AI and agentic AI and more involvement in day-to-day tasks, it would be great if this platform starts remediating the vulnerabilities as well.
Senior Manager For Info Sec at X-Press Feeders
One area for improvement is the initial configuration complexity, which is very complex in the initial stage to configure the whole thing and integrate with the SOC, presenting a learning curve for organizations that are new to adversary emulation or continuous security validation.
Security Consultant at Deloitte
AttackIQ works best when a SOC already has a process for acting on findings.
Solutions Sales Specialist at a outsourcing company with 1,001-5,000 employees
I would appreciate even deeper integrations with security tools and more automated remediation recommendations to streamline follow-up actions.
SOC L2 | Incident Responder at a financial services firm with 501-1,000 employees

Setup Cost

Seemplicity offers transparent pricing, flexible licensing, and straightforward setup, delivering market-aligned value and efficiency-enhancing solutions.
Wiz's pricing is seen as reasonable for its features, though transparency and predictability remain concerns for enterprise buyers.
Pricing and licensing were straightforward, and we had direct discussions with the CEO of the company, which allowed us to arrive at a price point that worked for both sides.
Member And Investor at OpenWeb
Licensing was clear and predictable; I appreciate there being no surprise costs creeping in after the fact, especially as someone who has to plan budgets.
Senior Manager For Info Sec at X-Press Feeders
They did not come to us with a take-it-or-leave-it price; they sat down with us.
Global Head, Cyber Security at Edge Testing Solutions
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing for AttackIQ is that since I was using the free version, I did not purchase it initially and was only utilizing the platform, doing lab simulations that were free in that environment.
Software Development Analyst at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
I don’t think there’s anyone else out there offering the same level, scale, or efficiency.
Principal Engineer at Aviatrix
If you are a small scale enterprise organization, you probably would not pay such a hefty amount of money to protect your organization.
Security Architect/Staff Engineer at a consultancy with 10,001+ employees
Wiz is less expensive than Microsoft and Palo Alto.
Engineering Lead at Persistent Systems
 

Valuable Features

Seemplicity utilizes AI for efficient vulnerability management, enhancing prioritization, automation, and team coordination while reducing manual efforts.
AttackIQ provides continuous security testing, enhances visibility, and integrates with tools to improve detection and threat defense.
Wiz offers comprehensive cloud security through agentless scanning, CSPM, vulnerability management, and integration capabilities for streamlined multi-cloud protection.
One is the option to deduplicate alerts between security platforms, which is something we do not have the capability for anywhere else.
Member And Investor at OpenWeb
The biggest impact Seemplicity has had on my organization is turning what used to be a fragmented, manual process into something structured and accountable.
Senior Manager For Info Sec at X-Press Feeders
It helps us accelerate the amount of time it takes to remediate and patch those systems and ensure that those systems are essentially secure and not vulnerable to exposure.
Managing Director
AttackIQ allows us to resolve issues much quicker because these issues come in categories, enabling us to prioritize them and fix the emergency issues first.
DevOps at a marketing services firm with 51-200 employees
The continuous validation of security controls through repeatable attack simulations is a massive advantage for me.
Solutions Sales Specialist at a outsourcing company with 1,001-5,000 employees
The ability to scan every layer without agents is a huge selling point because we're multi-agent.
Senior Information Security Engineer at a financial services firm with 1,001-5,000 employees
My favourite is the EASM/External Exposure view and overall package - full risk visibility. It allows us to prioritize, and I mean truly prioritize, what should be addressed first.
Security Solutions Architect - Cloud Security Consultant at a consultancy with 10,001+ employees
Wiz has helped my organization achieve zero criticals in its issue queues after a month.

JL
Vice President Of Security Architecture And Engineering at a hospitality company with 10,001+ employees
Unified vulnerability data has reduced risk and currently cuts duplicate tools and license costs
Seemplicity can be improved by adding additional graphs and charts that make it easier to do trending over time. I had to do some of that manually via manual reports, but Seemplicity already has a feature request for this. Seemplicity has done a pretty good job of keeping up with integrations. One gap that I identified and that Seemplicity is trying to fill now is having a complete end-to-end mapping. Seemplicity currently looks at the external attack surface using tools like Censys, and then looks at the internal side, examining what is in AWS and other clouds using CSPM. However, there is not anything that currently ties a property on the outside to a system on the inside, especially when you have additional security layers like web application firewalls that actually mitigate the risk.
Charl Pinches - PeerSpot reviewer
Solutions Sales Specialist at a outsourcing company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Continuous validation has transformed our SOC and now proves control effectiveness with evidence
Running in our SOC, it moves the conversation from assumptions and dashboards to measurable proof, which is exactly what makes AttackIQ valuable in day-to-day security operations. The breach and attack simulation that supports testing, prevention, detection, and response is a key feature for me, as is the ongoing exposure management, rather than a one-time security assessment. AttackIQ's reporting helps translate technical findings into actionable remediation steps, which are easy to understand. The continuous validation of security controls through repeatable attack simulations is a massive advantage for me. Once properly implemented, AttackIQ becomes a valuable part of a continuous validation program. The one feature I rely on the most from AttackIQ is specifically the continuous validation of security controls through repeatable attack simulations. From the reporting that stands out, once you have the report, the translation from a technical finding perspective and how they align with actionable remediation steps is easy to understand, which helps significantly. From a SOC perspective, AttackIQ running in our SOC is a solid enterprise-grade platform delivering genuine operational value. The biggest strength for me is the realism, its alignment with all the compliance situations we might have, and the ability to continuously validate control effectiveness. By doing that, we can continuously provide feedback to our customers to ensure they are running the best of breed for their security posture and environment. AttackIQ is best viewed as a tool that helps a SOC move from assumption-based security to evidence-based security, while providing reporting that can easily be communicated in layman's terms to your customer base. It is most effective for teams that want to prove their controls work, identify gaps early, and continuously improve rather than just rely on periodic testing alone.
Peter Whelan - PeerSpot reviewer
CISO at a computer software company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Improved our security posture thanks to comprehensive visibility
I have contacted Wiz technical support frequently. The support is excellent. We contact via an in-application portal. We can see the support cases we personally open, and also the cases that other people have opened from our company. I appreciate that feature. Generally, support gets back to us within a few days with a good answer. There was one fellow in particular who has been knocking it out of the park. He is a great support person to deal with. We are happy with the support experience. If I were to put Wiz support on a scale from one to ten, I would give them a ten.
