Orca Security Likes & Dislikes
Enthusiastic customer service with a dedicated success engineer and account manager, ensuring we maintain a healthy feedback loop. They also continue to address our needs as we identify gaps between their tool and our use cases. Orca itself is fairly easy to use right out-of-the-box, doesn't require continuous maintenance on our side, or even our interaction to ensure continuous operation.
I like the agentless architecture of this platform as it makes deployment faster and less complex. Maintenance is minimal and visibility is immediate. Orca provides comprehensive visibility into cloud configuration risks and vulnerabilities.
Easy API integration, it provides what you need at a glance and works well with discovery searches. Easy reporting for scheduled tasks. Able to quickly discover details about containers or instances that may not have certain configurations set on it.
Certain features lag behind the competition. Alternatives in this market may have a feature 3-6 months before Orca. Lack of customization for certain unique use cases. I believe Orca has the data available to it, but getting that information out of it can sometimes be impossible. Documentation and self-support can be a little lacking, requiring interaction with a support engineer to address appropriately.
The UI can be laggy sometimes, especially if you are dealing with large datasets. Some of the dashboards and reporting customization feel more technical than strategic. You may get a lot of noise and alerts in the early stages of deployment that may create some frustration for the team.
Documentation is not accurate or updated at times compared to cloud services or UI. Changes that affect reporting are sometimes not communicated to us and may change how the results are presented. Customer success answering support times can be improved - I was waiting far too long to answer a simple question.

Great feedback loop but sometimes lacks adequate documentation or lags on feature deliveries
Primarily purchased the tool to function as a CSPM. The tool delivers on that requirement. Cloud security is a new and emerging market and Orca continues to evolve to meet our needs. They are positively reflective of our feedback, and don't hesitate to follow up for further clarification to guarantee they satisfy our requests. - IT Associate50M-1B USDHealthcare and BiotechReview Source
Efficient Cloud Security Auditing with Streamlined Reporting and Quick Instance Insights
Orca has been incredibly useful in our environment because it lets us audit servers and run vulnerability reports without any heavy setup or agents getting in the way. Provides detailed insights into our EC2 instances and helps us quickly track down issues or missing configurations. Being able to pull up information on an instance in seconds has streamlined a lot of our day-to-day work, and overall it's made maintaining our cloud security posture far easier and more efficient. And let’s quickly export the results to present and schedule reports. - It Security & Risk Management Associate50M-1B USDServices (non-Government)Review Source
Immediate Visibility and Fast Deployment, But UI Lag and Alert Noise Reported
Orca Security can be considered a potential cloud-based security platform yet there is room for growth. Its unified dashboard and context-aware risk management makes the job easier for admins. Given the user-friendly dashboard, understanding the threats and compromises in the environment is fast and simple. I would suggest this platform for teams that want quick onboarding and strong coverage. - Specialist Cloud Information Security En<50M USDServices (non-Government)Review Source
Orca Security - Good tool with less friendly UI filters as compared to other CSPM tools in market
Orca security is one of the best tools I have worked on. First, I will talk about the UI, which has many bugs, and is not that user friendly. After we purchased this product, we started to work on automations and integrations with Jira along with integration of all our cloud accounts. Overall experience is good from scanning resources to verify alerts, Jira ticket dynamic flow. Even manual creation of Jira ticket works with automation which is the best feature I have ever seen in any CSPM tool. - IT SECURITY & RISK MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATE1B-10B USDRetailReview Source
