Dhruv Vaghasiya - PeerSpot reviewer
DevOps Engineer at Titanslab Inc.
Continuous assessments have strengthened our cloud security posture and compliance readiness
Prowler would benefit from improvements in dashboards and visualization. Currently, dashboards are only available for the default configuration. If Prowler could provide custom dashboards and querying into our data, it would be more useful for organizations. Additionally, more automated suggestions and reporting customization would be valuable. Currently, Prowler only provides PDF reports for their default posture and does not provide reports for frameworks like SOC 2 Type 2. While the scanning capabilities are strong, the most significant improvements would focus on visualization, automation, and enterprise workflow integration. Deeper integration with ticketing tools and SIEM tools would enhance the platform's value. Stronger enterprise reporting and automated remediation capabilities would add significant value to Prowler.
Aditya Sarkar - PeerSpot reviewer
Assistant VP at NatWest Group
Unified dashboards have streamlined code‑to‑cloud risk tracking and reduced manual reviews
The best features of Wiz Code that I appreciate the most include their entire dashboarding and the seamless integration with different DevOps tooling like GitHub or Azure DevOps. It seamlessly integrates, allowing you to run scanners directly onto the machines without consuming too many resources, and the recategorization of vulnerabilities is absolutely wonderful, giving you a complete attack path, which is something I love about Wiz Code because it details the entire lateral movement of the issue, whether it is a complete shift-left or shift-right, serving as the differentiators compared to other tools in the market. When I talk about ROI with Wiz Code, it almost cuts you down to 20% to 25% of the daily effort needed in terms of FTE. If you are working with around 100 developers or engineers, you might come down to 60 to 70 engineers, with the rest completely automated by removing false positives, showcasing where the USP comes in.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Prowler has saved us a lot of time, as our engineers previously wasted time manually checking all the configurations of cloud resources maintained in Excel sheets; after switching to Prowler, we save 60 to 70% of our engineers' time, as they no longer need to check each cloud account and resource individually."
"Prowler has positively impacted our organization by improving our security posture, increasing visibility into our cloud misconfigurations, and helping us strengthen our compliance processes."
"Using Prowler scans is definitely very helpful."
"Before using Prowler, we were spending hours of our engineers' efforts on compliance and misconfiguration checks, saving that configuration in Excel sheets, and after switching to Prowler, these processes are super smooth and easy, and we are currently saving our engineers' time."
"Prowler has positively impacted our organization by improving our security posture, increasing visibility into our cloud misconfigurations, and helping us strengthen our compliance processes."
"Prowler offers real-time scanning, which is crucial when improving our cloud security posture, as updates can be immediately reflected on the scoreboard."
"Prowler has positively impacted my organization by helping us on the security front by improving compliance."
"In my opinion, all the security features Wiz Code offers are the best."
"The best features with Wiz Code give you a reasonable picture when it comes to vulnerabilities, which means you see the usual severity levels, you also get to see references on how to remediate vulnerabilities, and the fact that it has a visual dashboard helps all stakeholders, especially folks who need to remediate, to get that picture correctly and then take action."
"Using Wiz Code has been a worthy investment, as manually checking all 100 AWS accounts for issues would take an immense amount of time, but Wiz Code allows us to scan all accounts within minutes and continuously monitors our cloud environment every 24 hours, displaying any changes in the Wiz Code UI under the issues and threats section."
"Wiz Code has positively impacted our organization as it helped us to maintain a healthy application security side of the company and to remediate our vulnerabilities."
"Wiz Code has positively impacted my organization through the unified platform that gives the ability to shift left in security and detect issues before they go into production."
"I would definitely recommend Wiz Code to boost development and productivity because I have seen significant positive improvements since I started using it."
"Approximately 30 to 40% of vulnerabilities are being remediated quicker and easily because Wiz Code has an auto-fixing PR feature available for IAC code, which helps us fix issues quickly."
"The best features of Wiz Code that I appreciate the most include their entire dashboarding and the seamless integration with different DevOps tooling like GitHub or Azure DevOps, allowing you to run scanners directly onto the machines without consuming too many resources, and the recategorization of vulnerabilities is absolutely wonderful, giving you a complete attack path, which is something I love about Wiz Code because it details the entire lateral movement of the issue, whether it is a complete shift-left or shift-right, serving as the differentiators compared to other tools in the market."
 

Cons

"Prowler would benefit from improvements in dashboards and visualization."
"One limitation is that after scanning the cloud account, Prowler provides reports of compliance frameworks such as SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO certified, but we only receive an Excel sheet; I think a PDF report along with remediation steps is needed to help us improve our cloud accounts better."
"For the reports, Prowler does not provide PDF reports for all compliances; it only gives reports for the Prowler configuration."
"Some of the findings in Prowler are not that critical but come in the critical category, so that could be improved."
"I do have one pain point using Prowler. Every time I use Prowler to output results, they have three formats available: CSV, HTML, and JSON."
"I give Prowler a score of seven or eight due to its inclusion of multiple security policies and the lack of a feature for adding false positives."
"Prowler would benefit from improvements in dashboards and visualization."
"The dashboards can be better; we have dashboards, but they are really complex and have a lot of information."
"Wiz Code could be better in secret scanning where no push protections are enabled at the GitHub or GitLab level to prevent pushing secrets on GitHub itself."
"Regarding pricing, I would say that the pricing model is a little bit hefty on the pocket."
"I rate the accuracy and reliability as good, but not yet at a level where I trust it without validation."
"Metadata ingestion and probably the integration of Wiz Code platform is something which is missing."
"There are many improvements that could be made to Wiz Code, but I would point out that sometimes it gives false results, though not every time."
"Wiz Code has many features, and I think they could continue to enhance customization according to our requirements."
"I have a big improvement in mind for Wiz Code, not a small improvement."
