Assistant Manager Transmission Planning at a comms service provider with 1,001-5,000 employees
A good security tool for vulnerability assessment and asset prioritization
The support mechanism can be improved. I would also like to add that it would be great if we could scan a previous date or based on the previous date's updates. Like today, if I want to run that scan on a system, if a system allows me to exclude all the patches that were released after October 2020, it will actually provide a clearer picture. This is because in October, we had these vulnerabilities, and these vulnerabilities are fixed now. Anyway, there's no point in talking about improvements. Symantec has already told us to buy another product as they are discontinuing this solution.

Centralized multi-account cost control has improved governance but still needs better savings insight
The feature I appreciate the most about Stacklet is the multi-account policy orchestration, which is very valuable because while Cloud Custodian is completely open source and anyone can use it, managing more than 5 to 20 accounts with it can be difficult. Another feature I appreciate is the policy approval workflows, which are production critical, enabling us to define actions to terminate or tag EC2 instances effectively. When it comes to Stacklet's automated remediation, everything Stacklet does could be accomplished with manual steps; however, the added action capability from the clicks makes it really helpful. Yet, there were some challenges, such as not being able to identify how much we were saving from a policy implemented across different accounts.

Pricing and Cost Advice
