Wiz distinguished itself immediately in the PoC, surfacing important issues that were entirely missed by both the products we were already using and other CNAPP's that we tested.

Wiz has positively impacted our organization with improved remediation speed and efficiencies in terms of time saved, as well as reducing false positives.

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.

For any organization who want to think of moving to Wiz, the Security Graph feature is amazing and awesome, giving you deeper information than any other tools does and allowing a small security team to manage a massive complex cloud environment without hiring dozens of additional users to look into it.

Wiz positively impacts my organization, especially since we are in the insurance sector where data security is paramount.

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.

Wiz is a very mature platform that we use daily as an end-to-end cloud management tool, and it is great as it reduces your company's security risk and actively monitors your entire cloud infrastructure, so you do not need to worry about any cloud risks affecting your organization.

One of the things that Wiz has done well is that there are no agents for the CSPM, at least from what we are doing, and it is very easy to roll out, easy to configure, maintain, and generally it does what it says it does with few issues.

Wiz significantly helped with our compliance requirements.

Wiz has helped me consolidate some tools, as it is not just doing the job of the security tool alone, and we do not need to invest in multiple tools because all aspects such as infrastructure, application, vulnerabilities, and the regular security scoring patterns are in-built into Wiz along with the inventory manager.

As for stability, we have seen some issues where our results changed radically from one day to the next, but we had not made radical changes, so we opened a case with support.

The only slight negative is its scanning capability compared to Checkmarx, but it is still very good.
Marcel Velica - PeerSpot reviewer

Nov 29, 2025
Wiz can be improved with better maturity in code scanning and developer workflows, expanding secret detection to full lifecycle management, stronger IAM across multi-account environments, more transparent attack path scoring and risk modeling, improved AI and ML security scanning, reduced false positives in runtime threat detection, more fine-grained access control and tenant separation, and better integration for serverless workloads.

Two percent would be that the loading time is taking a bit longer while loading the graph, and while navigating to other links, that is also taking some time.

While Wiz provides excellent data and reports, sometimes the suggested fixes for vulnerabilities are not always accurate based on our code compatibility.
MatthewSnyder - PeerSpot reviewer

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.

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

We have an integration with ServiceNow, but Wiz's ServiceNow integration is not the best.

From a technical perspective, Wiz is excellent, but the pricing is too expensive.

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