Room For Improvement

Users seek smoother onboarding, better third-party integrations, accurate alerts, improved UI, cost adjustments, and enhanced AI features.
Prisma Cloud struggles with integration, UI, automation, cloud coverage, reporting, support, and pricing, hindering broader adoption and usability.
Wiz needs enhancements in reporting, security, integration, alert management, remediation, file monitoring, runtime security, and container scanning.
If notifications are available, then it will be more helpful, easy, and time-saving.
Sr Security Analyst at a computer software company with 201-500 employees
Alerts should be directly tied to compliance standards and have a clear role in the overall compliance process.
Cloud Security & Architecture Specialist at a insurance company with 10,001+ employees
The Infrastructure as Code service available in PingSafe and the services available in AWS cloud security can be merged so that we can get the security data directly from AWS cloud in PingSafe.
Cloud Engineer at a tech services company with 201-500 employees
Prisma Cloud is an excellent tool.
Technical Engineer at a tech services company with 1,001-5,000 employees
We could have deployed the runtime monitoring with Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks, but within our organization at our company, it was very difficult to find who would be the owner for the alerts.
Cyber Security Architect at a comms service provider with 10,001+ employees
Even though documentation was available, it took a while for a new person to understand what integration meant, what will be achieved after the integration, or how the integration needed to be done on the Azure or AWS side.

We would like to see preventive controls that can be applied through Wiz to protect against vulnerabilities that we're not going to be able to remediate immediately.

One significant area for improvement would be increasing automation. While they excel at identifying issues, we need assistance in minimizing the human hours required for tasks.

Senior Engineer at a insurance company with 10,001+ employees
 

Setup Cost

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers flexible pricing, valued support, and potential cost savings, but can be high for small businesses.
Prisma Cloud's complex pricing is offset by comprehensive features, offering cost efficiency with strategic planning despite hidden costs.
Wiz's pricing is fair and transparent, though higher, offering value with comprehensive security but concerns about future increases.
With very little negotiation involved, we just let them know what we could pay and they were willing to meet us at slightly above what we paid with Sophos, which was still very fair for what we were looking at.
IT Support Specialist at a non-tech company with 201-500 employees
If you want to buy just EDR, the price is less. XDR is a little bit more expensive.
IT Security Specialist at Tailor Security Tech
It should not be based on subscription. It should be based on the number of servers that I am scanning.
AVP DevOps and Product Support at a recruiting/HR firm with 1,001-5,000 employees
The cost was not on the higher side.
Technical Architect at a tech services company with 1,001-5,000 employees
If you are using a single tool like Prisma Cloud, with a single license, you can monitor all environments, such as Google Cloud, Azure, AWS, and Oracle Cloud.
Cloud Security Delivery Associate Manager at Accenture
Prisma's price is pretty high, but it's a good product, and you get what you paid for, especially if you're working in a containerized environment.
Cloud Security Engineer at Fast
We are paying 250k per year.
Project Manager at Hilti
In some cases, it has a very aggressive price, so very cheap.
Business Line Manager at S2E
I don’t think there’s anyone else out there offering the same level, scale, or efficiency.
Principal Engineer at Aviatrix

Sreeraj Mohandas - PeerSpot reviewer
Security Engineer at HashXpert
Consolidated cloud security has reduced manual work and has automated vulnerability remediation
I elaborate on my rating of SentinelOne support by mentioning that there was some time where the troubleshooting took a longer time. In fact, there were many meetings going on. The availability of the document on the internet is on a lesser side because as an engineer, I would want to know about the troubleshooting aspects of this particular tool. When I am facing a customer, I do not prefer to bring the vendor to every call and try to resolve it, as it takes months and months. It would be better to have a training session with the engineer on site to explain and train properly. This is not the case with SentinelOne, so this is the only thing I have a complaint about. I do not have any other room for improvement to suggest within SentinelOne itself. However, I would really want the AI assistant for the threat hunting part to be more accessible. They have it, but they are making it licensed, so it is a bit on the higher end.

Cyber Security Architect at a comms service provider with 10,001+ employees
Image scanning has supported consistent security practices during cloud deployment
On a scale of ten, we would say people are happy with Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks for the part we use. People are okay with it. We probably would give an eight. We don't give ten because if we don't use the other parts of Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks, it's because it was difficult to implement from an operational point of view. We could have deployed the runtime monitoring with Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks, but within our organization at our company, it was very difficult to find who would be the owner for the alerts. People have other tools and in the end, we don't use the full capabilities of a product that we pay for. It's partially related to the difficulty to integrate Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks runtime in our company's support process. We don't use the real-time monitoring part of Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks. We don't know about the automated remediation feature of Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks.
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.
