Unified risk scoring has improved our cloud visibility and simplifies remediation priorities

Qualys TotalCloud provides unified vulnerability and threat assessment across both IAS and SaaS. This solution provides a single prioritized view of risk, which helps reduce the work I would have to do. We are no longer based on CVSS; we are based on Qualys risk scoring, which is based on CVSS plus internal findings made by Qualys, and then assigns its own score. The TruRisk insight feature has found a small number of assets with high vulnerability scores, though I am cautious since some information is classified. Qualys TotalCloud has positively impacted our bank's performance, and we have definitely seen benefits after implementing this solution.

Runtime threat detection has improved and security teams prioritize real Kubernetes risks

The best feature Sysdig Secure offers is threat detection. The threat detection feature on Sysdig Secure stands out compared to other solutions I have seen or used because Sysdig sees the actual behavior inside the container or kernel and correlates it with Kubernetes infrastructure, which makes detection both earlier and more precise in a cloud-native environment. Sysdig Secure has positively impacted our organization by improving visibility into our Kubernetes environment and focusing on real risk, which has reduced alert noise, improved threat detection at runtime, and made vulnerability management more efficient by prioritizing issues that actually affect running workloads.

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.

"Qualys TotalCloud's most valuable features are its security capabilities that help identify and mitigate risk factors."

"Qualys TotalCloud's most valuable feature is its agent versatility."

"I like the web API security and IoT scanning features the most. The user-friendly design of TotalCloud's interface enables customers to navigate it and use its full potential easily"

"I appreciate TotalCloud's real-time protection and remediation features. The remediation options include automated one-click remedies and custom changes that help manage vulnerabilities efficiently."

"The platform's unified view of the organization proves particularly valuable for leadership team meetings."

"Qualys TotalCloud has significantly improved our organization by automating our reporting processes, reducing the time spent on report creation from two hours to less than fifteen to twenty minutes."

"While automatic inventory detection upon connection is a helpful feature, a truly valuable capability would be assessing an environment's security posture against Azure and CIS best practices."

More Qualys TotalCloud pros

"I have not seen any stability issues so far."

"The tool has the capability to conduct scans initially. It can perform scans on your virtual machines, physical machines, containers, and container images. A standout feature is its ability to scan offline container images stored in your container registry. Additionally, it can scan runtime images in your cluster or on your host machine. This allows for the detection of vulnerabilities in running containers, including loaded libraries. Notably, the tool can identify which library vulnerabilities are already present in your system. An added advantage is its capacity to take action beyond threat detection. It has the ability to block access and respond to encountered threats."

"The proactiveness of the support has been fantastic. Every time we mention something in a meeting that we're trying to do, he proactively takes that as an investigation topic and looks into it. He'll provide the solution even though we might not have asked him to investigate it."

"We appreciate this feature, especially when combined with CD monitoring. The implementation of requested features has been remarkable, such as scanning for compliance in CRM processes for the US government. We heavily rely on this feature to assess compliance with federal requirements."

"The most valuable feature is the level of support that we get. Our solutions or customer success representative is very valuable. I see them as an extension of our security team."

"Sysdig Secure has positively impacted our organization by improving visibility into our Kubernetes environment and focusing on real risk, which has reduced alert noise, improved threat detection at runtime, and made vulnerability management more efficient by prioritizing issues that actually affect running workloads."

"Sysdig Secure has many strong foundational features like compliance and benchmark, security, network access management, and vulnerability management."

"In terms of measurable outcomes, I have seen a reduction in vulnerabilities, as Sysdig Secure can tell us how many vulnerabilities are present on a day-to-day report basis, which has improved our efficiency by more than 50% and helps us stay compliant with necessary regulations."

More Sysdig Secure pros

"The best features of Wiz are its security capabilities, providing the best security for pharmaceutical products and industries, along with the required dashboard containing customer details and inventory management features."

"The biggest impact Wiz has had on our organization is improved visibility and better prioritization, as previously mentioned."

"Wiz helps to identify active threats more effectively as it does active scanning on workloads, keeps looking into logs and images of virtual machines, and upon detecting threats, it checks possible connections through events and logs, giving visibility into where the issue started and exactly where it is."

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

"The CSPM module has been the most effective. It was easy to deploy and covered all our accounts through APIs, requiring no agents. Wiz provides instant visibility into high-level risks that we need to address."

"Wiz has significantly reduced alert fatigue in our organization by grouping together elements that form toxic combinations, allowing us to quickly identify and remediate critical issues instead of chasing isolated alerts from multiple tools."

"One feature I particularly appreciate about Wiz is that, similar to other cloud-native security tools like Microsoft's Defender for Cloud, it allows you to define policies as code and deploy them through a version control system with a continuous deployment pipeline."

"Wiz significantly helped with our compliance requirements."

More Wiz pros

Cons

"Qualys's ticketing system can be confusing when assigning tasks to individuals, and support could be improved by offering instant call solutions with engineers in addition to ticket replies."

"Qualys TotalCloud needs to enhance its scanning capabilities in the IP domain, as it currently lacks the functionality to resolve IPs to their corresponding domain names."

"From a downside perspective, the UI is not user-friendly and feels dated compared to other tools like Prisma Cloud."

"Qualys TotalCloud needs to improve its accuracy for non-Windows operating systems."

"The areas in the solution that have room for improvement include the UI/UX design, which should be improved, and they should integrate more artificial intelligence into the product."

"There is room for improvement in the support."

"A feature improvement could be the inclusion of Windows OS support for container security, as it is currently only supported for Linux."

"The cloud licensing unit system is unclear, especially since "units" aren't well-defined."

More Qualys TotalCloud cons

"I give it an eight because of the bugs, specifically the fix version bug where sometimes there is no fix version shown, and I wish Sysdig Secure would create a customizable UI that orders features by importance to enhance user experience."

"Perhaps, it could support more custom implementations, as our company utilizes custom implementations rather than standard ones. Configuring it requires a deep understanding and adjustment to our specific needs, which took some time. Other than that, I'm unsure about potential improvements. We were considering the possibility of compartmentalizing their tools. Currently, in Sysdig Secure, they bundle multiple features, and we are unable to use them individually. For instance, if we only need compliance scanning, we have to deploy the entire secure package. This is because of the way their agent functions, but I can't delve into more details."

"Banks and financial institutions cannot use Sysdig Secure because it doesn't sell SaaS-hosted versions for under two hundred working nodes."

"Sysdig Secure needs to scale more for complete cloud-native coverage."

"Sysdig Secure works well for us, but there are a few areas for improvement, such as the alerting and notification system being more flexible for complex workflows, and some dashboard and reporting features could be more customizable to match specific team needs."

"The solution needs to improve overall from a CSPM standpoint since they can't compete with Wiz or Orca."

"There was a security concern related to a specific feature. While the feature itself was promising, it posed a challenge. The situation revolved around code scanning. If your source code is hosted within your own premises, say on Bitbucket, you naturally wouldn't want your code to be accessible to external parties beyond your company. Keeping your code base private is a standard practice. However, in the case of code scanning using Sysdig Secure, they copy your code to their SaaS platform. This posed an issue for us. When we inquired about this, their response acknowledged the concern. In an upcoming release, they plan to enable code scanning within your on-premises environment through the assistance of an agent. This change is already in progress. While this tool stands out compared to existing solutions in the market, it's important to note that there are still some limitations to consider. Another drawback we encountered relates to our expertise with Kubernetes. The tool can monitor Kubernetes audit logs, triggering alerts and notifications. However, it falls short in terms of taking direct action based on these alerts. There are different methods of event capture, including through system labels and system calls, as well as via Kubernetes audit events. Notably, at the system level, Sysdig Secure can both detect and respond to events, allowing actions like blocking and warning. This proactive approach is effective at the system call level. However, when it comes to monitoring Kubernetes audit events, Sysdig Secure can only notify without being able to execute any further actions. It can't block access or containers. The vendor likened their role to that of a monitoring camera, observing events and sending notifications without the capacity to intervene. This limitation applies to Kubernetes audit events. Given that everything operates within our system, there is a workaround available: configuring system-level policies to block containers as necessary."

"They should make it specific with a couple of features only."

More Sysdig Secure cons

"The APIs are currently quite limited and not very mature, which makes integration with Splunk difficult."

"One significant issue is that the searches are case-sensitive, so finding a misconfigured resource can become very challenging."

"Given the level of visibility into all the cloud environments Wiz provides, it would be nice if they could integrate some kind of mechanism to better manage tenants on multiple platforms. For example, let's say that some servers don't have an application they need, such as an antivirus. Wiz could include an API or something to push those applications out to the servers. It would be great if you could remedy these issues directly from the Wiz platform."

"When integrating multiple clouds like hybrid cloud with Wiz, these processes need to be more user-friendly because more scripting is required in this scenario."

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

"The pricing is a bit higher than the market rate, but the value it provides is more valuable than the pricing."

"It would be better if, when you get an alert type, you are able to view the regex or alert logic without having to dig through all the different options; it is difficult to find where the alert logic is because you have to go to the investigations and then actually find and search for the individual alert."

"Wiz is agentless, which is a plus, but the runtime and real-time detection could be limited, as it is not its strength."

More Wiz cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Qualys TotalCloud is expensive."

"Qualys TotalCloud is expensive, but it offers a premier solution with no headaches."

"Qualys TotalCloud offers good pricing that is affordable and competitive with the market. Our partnership also provides us with additional benefits."

"TotalCloud's price is about right where I would expect it to be."

"The pricing for TotalCloud is attractive and competitive in the market. Given the features, especially the dashboard, I have no concerns regarding pricing."

"Its price seems higher compared to other tools, but it is worth it. If they could adjust the pricing and make it comparable with other tools, that would be great."

"Although Qualys TotalCloud is relatively expensive due to its unique automation features, its cost-effectiveness is rated an eight out of ten, with ten being the most costly."

"While Qualys TotalCloud's pricing is currently acceptable, it is becoming increasingly expensive and may soon be considered overpriced."

More Qualys TotalCloud pricing and cost advice

"The solution's pricing depends on the agents...In short, the price depends on the environment of its user."

"In comparison to other cloud solutions, it's reasonably priced. However, when compared to in-house built open-source projects, it might be considered somewhat costly. The cost depends on whether someone sees the support provided by Sysdig as an advantage or if it's deemed unnecessary. Personally, I find the support to be excellent and consider it a good value."

"Sysdig is competitive. The quality matches the pricing. Obviously, everyone wants things to be cheaper, but if you're realistic, you acknowledge that quality service comes with a price. Sysdig is the gold standard for Kubernetes, and I wouldn't choose anything else. We live in Kubernetes. Everything is containerized, so that means a lot to us, and we're willing to make an investment."

"It is quite costly compared to other tools."

"I am always going to say that it could be a little bit cheaper. I do feel that it is a little bit on the expensive side."

"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."

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

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

"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."

"Regarding pricing, it’s more than $100k because we have a very big infrastructure. Our environment supports around three thousand people, and we offer business-to-client financial services to around one million clients, so we rely heavily on Wiz."

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

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

Wiz is the industry’s first AI Application Protection Platform (AI-APP), empowering organizations to securely protect everything they build and run at machine speed. Moving beyond traditional cloud security management, Wiz unifies Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM), Data Security Posture Management (DSPM), Cloud Workload Protection (CWPP), and Attack Surface Management (ASM) into a single, cohesive platform. It provides 100% agentless visibility across multi-cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP, OCI, Alibaba Cloud, and more) and Kubernetes, instantly discovering everything from traditional virtual machines to dynamic AI agents, Large Language Models (LLMs), and Model Context Protocols (MCPs). To help organizations stay resilient in the AI threat landscape, Wiz features an agentic security operating model with specialized AI Agents (Red, Blue, and Green) that autonomously investigate threats, validate exploitability, and remediate risks paired with Wiz Workflows to automate and customize response as fast as risk is discovered, directly in the tools teams work in. Users adopt Wiz to eliminate toxic combinations of risk, secure AI pipelines, automate compliance, and achieve zero critical vulnerabilities.

What are the key features of Wiz?

AI-Enriched Security Graph: Models relationships across code, cloud infrastructure, identities, data, and AI components to pinpoint "toxic combinations" of risk and actual attack paths.
Wiz AI Agents & Workflows: Features the Red Agent (an autonomous AI pentester that validates complex, exploitable risks), Blue Agent (an automated threat investigator for runtime alerts), and Green Agent (a resolution engine that identifies the safest, fastest remediation paths back to the root cause in code). Wiz Workflows orchestrates these agents and the remediation lifecycle across the platform, fully customizable to each organization’s processes and integrated with the tools teams already use. Consolidated Cloud & AI Posture Management: Unifies CSPM with AI-SPM (AI Security Posture Management) and DSPM, securing everything from traditional cloud assets to AI models and sensitive training data with a single scanning engine.
Advanced Agentless Deployment: Deploys in minutes via API to provide complete full-stack visibility without disrupting business operations, expanding to instantly discover hidden AI tools, shadow APIs, and "vibe-coded" applications.
