I'm satisfied with the pricing.
What other advice do I have?
I would suggest not relying on the cloud provider only. There are other third-party tools that can help with future strategies. Locking into one vendor can create problems and it's a good idea to use security tools from a third party and have multi-hybrid cloud.
I rate the solution seven out of 10.

The product should not be a region restriction product. It should be global. It should give you the visibility of all the instances that you have for one account, be it in one region or many regions. There should be visibility of all the region in one place.
