Executive SummaryUpdated on Dec 14, 2025

Skybox Security Suite and Wiz compete in the domain of cybersecurity management. Wiz appears to have the upper hand in cloud environments due to its security graph and contextual risk analysis features.

Features: Skybox Security Suite offers robust firewall and network assurance capabilities, making it ideal for large-scale networks. It includes modules like Change Manager and Firewall Assurance for complex environments. Wiz provides a security graph, contextual risk analysis, and excellent cloud vulnerability detection, which helps prioritize vulnerabilities with minimal false positives.

Room for Improvement: Skybox Security Suite's interface and deployment are complex, and its transition to a web-based GUI is incomplete. Users seek improved automation and better cloud integration. Wiz needs enhancements in reporting, risk prioritization, and vulnerability detection speed. Users desire more control over alerts and better DevSecOps tool integration.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Skybox Security Suite, used in on-premises environments, is complex to deploy and configure, with mixed support experiences. Wiz, used in cloud deployments, is simple and effective, but users wish for better executive reporting. Both receive satisfactory but varied reviews on support quality.

Pricing and ROI: Skybox Security Suite is expensive with concerns about licensing complexity, but offers good ROI for large organizations. Wiz is also priced high, justified by its cloud-native capabilities, though users worry about future cost increases. Both provide value depending on organization size and infrastructure complexity.

Has become an indispensable tool in our cybersecurity arsenal

While Zafran Security is already a powerful tool, there are areas where it could be further improved to provide even greater value. One key area for enhancement is the searching capabilities within its vulnerabilities module. By incorporating the ability to create Boolean searches, users would gain the ability to apply more complex filters and customize their search criteria. This would greatly enhance the precision and efficiency with which security teams can identify and prioritize vulnerabilities. Having such tailored search capabilities would save time and resources by narrowing down vast lists of vulnerabilities to those that meet specific parameters relevant to our unique risk environment. Additionally, integrating more robust reporting and visualization tools would be advantageous. Enhanced dashboards that offer customizable visual representations of risk configurations and threat landscapes would facilitate better communication with stakeholders, making it easier to explain vulnerabilities and the rationale behind certain security measures. This would also aid in demonstrating the improvements and value derived from existing security investments to leadership and non-technical team members.

Tool identifies vulnerabilities and monitors connectivity effectively

Skybox Security Suite was a very good tool for my organization. I used it for monitoring connectivity between internal and external sites, monitoring our AWS instances, and ensuring workstations and Layer 3 devices met security specifications. The tool successfully helped in preventing vulnerabilities and breaches, but unfortunately, operations ceased before completing a migration to SaaS.

Unified cloud visibility has transformed our risk prioritization and reduced alert fatigue while improving collaboration across security and DevSecOps teams

The standout features of Wiz that make it valuable for me include good multi-cloud environment support, data governance, shadow IT detection, DevSecOps governance, automation, level reporting, threat detection, and good infrastructure detection. Wiz has positively impacted my organization by implementing zero trust authorization, providing good reporting that shows the top attack path, critical assets, overall risk posture, and demonstrating AI and ML workload capabilities towards my team, as well as good infrastructure detection and vulnerability detection accuracy with security posture management at massive scale and identity exposure. There is a massive reduction in risk exposure, immediate visibility across the entire cloud estate, reduced noise and better prioritization, stronger DevSecOps collaboration, continuous compliance instead of ad hoc panic, faster incident response with real context, significant cost savings through tool consolidation, and stronger AI and data governance.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We saw benefits from Zafran Security almost immediately after deploying it."

"We are able to see the real risk of a vulnerability on our environment with our security tools."

"Zafran has become an indispensable tool in our cybersecurity arsenal."

"Zafran is an excellent tool."

"Overall, we have seen about eighty-seven percent reduction of the number of vulnerabilities that require urgency to remediate, specifically the number of criticals."

"With Zafran Security, it integrates with your security controls, allowing you to take that risk score and reduce it based on the controls in place or increase the risk based on different factors, such as if the issue is internet reachable or if there's an exploit in the wild."

"Key features for us include the firewall change audit every week. Also, being able to track firewall ACL usage, so that we can produce semiannual reports on ACL usage and shadowed and redundant rules on the firewall."

"It's very supportive and very user-friendly."

"Aside from Firewall Assurance, we are using Network Assurance and Change Manager for an overview of the whole network and for documenting requests and the recertification of the ruleset."

"When you import all the assets that you have, like desktops, servers, networks, devices, routers, and then firewalls, and other products, then Skybox makes like, a model of the network, but with context. So, it is not just a model in VIZIO. Or something like it like that. You get the model with context, and, like, it looks like a real network in a real-time. So you can check your network and the security of your network on that model."

"Correlates logs and threats and prioritizes; provides network maps;p provides change result context and resulting vulnerability."

"The features that I have found most valuable with Skybox Security Suite, and this is because I work on the security side, are the firewall assurance, the change manager and the vulnerability control. These three features are the most impressive from Skybox Security."

"The most impressive feature is optimization and clean-up."

"I think that compliance checks and policy compliance are the product's good features."

More Skybox Security Suite pros

"The first thing that stood out was the ease of installation and the quick value we got out of the solution."

"The product's most valuable feature combines different contexts and attributes to produce highly confident alerts."

"The product supports out-of-the-box reporting with context about the asset and allows us to perform complex custom queries on UI."

"The automation roles are essential because we ultimately want to do less work and automate more. The dashboards are easy to read and visually pleasing. You can understand things quickly, which makes it easy for our other teams. The network and infrastructure teams don't know as much about security as we do, so it helps to have a tool that's accessible and nice to look at."

"The tool's most valuable feature is its attack path analysis."

"Our most important features are those around entitlement, external exposure, vulnerabilities, and container security."

"Wiz has positively impacted my organization by implementing zero trust authorization, providing good reporting that shows the top attack path, critical assets, overall risk posture, and demonstrating AI and ML workload capabilities towards my team, as well as good infrastructure detection and vulnerability detection accuracy with security posture management at massive scale and identity exposure."

"What I appreciate most about Wiz is that the compliance and CSPM aspects of this cloud-native application protection offering are genuinely better than other products available in the market."

More Wiz pros

Cons

"Initially, we were somewhat concerned about the scalability of Zafran due to our large asset count and the substantial amount of information we needed to process."

"I think the ability to have some enhanced reporting capabilities is something they can improve on, as they have good reports but we have asked for some specific reporting enhancements."

"The dashboarding and reporting functionality of Zafran Security is an area that definitely could use some improvements."

"The most recent update was not tested with all of the vendors before it was released, so some of the features are misbehaving."

"The cloud site could be better. They should provide some use cases to help users."

"The solution needs to move improve its interface to a full web browser version that is more accessible and doesn't require installation for use."

"They are not satisfied with the complexity of the solution and the price."

"There is room for improvement in the technical support."

"Reporting. A lot of the reports, out of the box, are limited to a certain number of either configuration violations or access rule violations. So when you first set up a new firewall to be monitored by Skybox, you don't get a real full report. You have to really tweak it to get everything."

"The support could be improved."

"The price could be cheaper."

More Skybox Security Suite cons

"In Brazil, the cost is a significant issue due to the currency exchange rate."

"They could improve the product's visibility in the internal network topology."

"As the tool is a good fit for small and medium-sized businesses, the solution should focus on making the product suitable for large-scale businesses."

"The remediation workflow within the Wiz could be improved."

"FinOps is an area where Wiz needs enhancement."

"More or less, Wiz is doing well, but the false alerts at random times would be another area for improvement."

"I have seen some lagging or downtime a couple of times, but I am not sure why it happened."

"Not having an on-prem version can be an obstacle for customers who have a large workload in an on-prem environment."

More Wiz cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"The licensing fee is paid yearly and is approximately $100,000."

"Licensing is normally on a yearly basis. There may also be a perpetual license. Normally, the customers ask for a lower price. If you want to sell more, you have to think about it."

"The product's pricing is excellent value. In terms of licensing, make sure you understand your network components, all your hops through your network, thoroughly, before you decide on the total cost. If you want to do point-to-point flow analysis and such, you need to have the configuration of all the devices in between point A and point B. A lot of people don't realize all their network components until they start using this product."

"I think for the cost, what we got definitely is worth it. The only caution I would give is that whenever you license for Firewall Assurance at the same time, for some weird reason, you have to get one Network Assurance license, just to manage one firewall. That's a little bit of overkill. But otherwise, in general, the pricing is fairly okay."

"I rate the pricing two on a scale of one to ten, where one is very expensive, and ten is cost-effective."

"With licensing, the number of network nodes becomes very expensive to the point where you have to rationalize if the tools are warranted anymore."

"Fully understand the total cost of ownership. They have gone to a new model where you have to replace the hardware every X amount of years at a very substantial cost and fully understand your intended number of nodes. To operate a firewall, you have to pay two licenses, a firewall node and a network node. If you are a reasonable-sized organization, this gets expensive very quickly."

"The software is expensive. I rate its pricing an eight out of ten."

More Skybox Security Suite pricing and cost advice

"I wish the pricing was more transparent."

"Based on the features and capabilities, the product pricing seems reasonable."

"If one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the tool's price as a five out of ten."

"The pricing is fair. Some of the more advanced features and functionalities and how the tiers are split can be somewhat confusing."

"The cost of the other solutions is comparable to Wiz."

"The pricing is fair and comparable to their competitors. The cost seems to be going up, which is a concern. There are potential savings from consolidating tools, but we're uncertain how Wiz's pricing will change over time."

"Wiz is a moderately priced solution, where it is neither cheap nor costly."

"The pricing seems pretty simple. We don't have to do a lot of calculations to figure out what the components are. They do it by enabling specific features, either basics or advanced, which makes it easy to select."
