Abimael Ferreira - PeerSpot reviewer
Security at Blaze Information Security
Centralized code analysis has improved my workflow and prioritizes critical vulnerabilities
Apiiro offers several features that I consider the best, such as the ability to have multiple developers and AppSec professionals working on the same project, and through the platform, we can see the number of vulnerabilities, generate reports, and integrate Snyk within our workflow. Before the code goes to production, Apiiro can read all that code and determine if everything is okay or if improvements are needed. The reports generated by Apiiro and its integration with Snyk contribute to my development process by giving us visibility into what is actually vulnerable, as automation like Apiiro makes it much easier to track vulnerabilities without spending too much time manually checking for issues, thus generating meaningful reports afterward. Apiiro manages permissions very effectively, which is interesting from an organizational standpoint because it allows us to separate which people can access a given project and designate project administrators who can approve or reject changes once a fix is made. I found the accuracy and reliability of Apiiro's results to be very good, as it can predict issues based on its existing data.

Cyber Security Engineer Ii (Vulnerability & Threat Management) at FICO
Risk-based workflows have transformed how our teams prioritize and track critical vulnerabilities
One important area for improvement could be reporting flexibility and dashboard customization, as this would need to align with specific organizational requirements. I believe it could be better. Additionally, UI simplification and more customization around workflows and reporting would further enhance the analyst experience. Improvements in executive reporting, more customizable dashboards, and deeper workflow flexibility would enhance operational usability further. Vulcan Cyber handles scalability well in our organization. It maintains stability for visibility and remediation tracking, avoiding the need for additional storage, as it is cloud-based. It scales well in our environment, even as vulnerability data and assets grow significantly.

Pros

"Apiiro manages permissions very effectively, which is interesting from an organizational standpoint because it allows us to separate which people can access a given project and designate project administrators who can approve or reject changes once a fix is made."
"Apiiro's secrets detection feature has saved us several times, which we appreciate greatly."
"The positive impact I have seen from working with Apiiro for my company includes the metrics that we get from Apiiro, which have been extremely helpful."
"The workflow automation is likely the best aspect of the solution."
"The interface of Vulcan Cyber is intuitive with a lot of information about vulnerabilities, which helps in classifying and analyzing threats. We have a good view of assets and vulnerabilities. It helps to do good threat analysis because we can see exactly what the threat is and assess it accordingly."
"There is a lot of flexibility in exporting, making it a really good feature. The exporting flexibility based on application type is commendable and provides significant value."
"It has allowed us to bring together multiple sources of information from different signal sources into a single point."
"Vulcan Cyber has had the biggest positive impact on my organization through the improvement in prioritization and remediation efficiency."
"The most notable aspects include having prioritization capabilities and custom scripts."
"Vulcan Cyber offers a single pane of glass for centralizing our security data."
"Out of the three solutions I've used, Vulcan Cyber is the superior option."
"They recently upgraded their UI, which is great. It is user-friendly."
 

Cons

"I would like support for our self-hosted Git server, other than GitHub, just regular Git."
"My first feedback for Apiiro is that it is very slow, extremely slow."
"User management is a little bit clunky."
"The UI sometimes helps but can also be a bit confusing."
"Mainly, what I would like from them is more maintenance of the different connectors they have in the platform."
"We've faced situations where we required support on a Friday, and support wasn't available."
"We wish we had more insights into how they weigh the risks associated with the threat intel."
"It would be extremely helpful to have a community group around the product."
"There are several areas needing improvement. The product helps, but the reporting relies heavily on Power BI. It is limited to graphical views and requires additional filtering, posing operational challenges."
"It was a rough year in terms of setup. I had to set it up and onboard it. It was a significant effort from my side at least."
"Monitoring of the evolution of campaigns and perhaps having more customized options for monitoring them would be great."
"Initially, when onboarding Vulcan Cyber, the setup and configuration was more complex than expected with a user-friendly approach. This aspect can be enhanced."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Its pricing is quite fair compared to what is out there in the market, especially compared to the tool from Microsoft. It is a SaaS platform that has an annual cost, so it is something that is already used by many companies. It is quite affordable."
"Our leadership knows better about the pricing. As per my knowledge, which might not be accurate, its price can come down."
