    Significant reduction in critical and high-level vulnerabilities after the first year of use.

    5.0
    Feb 21, 2026
    The product is easy to use. The initial setup is very simple. In the first year of use, we managed to reduce vulnerabilities classified as High and Critical by more than 90%, considering the 3 main market clouds. Thanks to this, we considerably increased the level of governance in our cloud environments. The product has many ready-made connectors, which greatly facilitates system integration, and also provides APIs for direct consumption of key information.

Dislike

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.
