Cons
"We need to have many of the baselines or development guides providing less complex writing or development.""There are a lot of opportunities for how they can use their technology to do more. That would be more like sensitive data discovery and other things besides Git Repos, but then you are expanding the scope of what necessarily their product is.""They could include web functionalities such as sandboxing.""The costs are not transparent.""It is generally difficult to find documentation about the product, and there is relatively little to find.""I am satisfied with the performance and results enhanced by this product since we deployed it.""The enhancements are needed in the logging system and log management processes.""This is a highly technical solution for users who do not have security experience. It requires specialized knowledge of configurations to use it correctly."
