Cloud posture management has improved remediation and optimizes costs with contextual risk insights
Since I have not used Orca Security for 10 months, I am uncertain what areas still need improvement, as they may have rolled out features that addressed issues I faced in the past. However, I can say the tool is good. A few things could potentially be improved, particularly regarding false positives and the UI. What I observed is that they release updates to the platform without notifying the customer. Every time the UI is upgraded, they release something without notification. This could be a slight improvement. If they released some kind of notification to just inform the customer about UI changes, the customer would be aware of the changes that Orca Security is making in the backend.

Continuous code security has reduced vulnerabilities and provides real-time risk visibility
I have a big improvement in mind for Wiz Code, not a small improvement. When I look at tools such as vulnerability detection tools, I focus on how the reporting could help fast-track risk mitigations. I don't want folks to just look at the severity rating, whether it's critical, high, or medium. I would love to see how that presents a risk. Meaning that if a particular vulnerability is compromised, it could be a low severity, but if it's compromised, what business impact does it have? With capabilities we have in AI and other technologies, I think we could do much more than just sharing vulnerability ratings or severity ratings for folks to act on. That approach is outdated. Something that communicates the value would make sense and could help drive or change habits. That's what I'm thinking, and that's why I say it's a big one, not just something small.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"In our opinion, Orca Sensor is the best solution available at the moment, and it significantly affects the visibility and protection of environments."
"I recommend Orca Security to others looking for a cloud security solution due to its seamless integration and side-scanning technology that does not hamper cloud asset performance."
"The product itself is really good. It helped us streamline the way we access our servers."
"The initial setup is very easy."
"I would rate the quality of support as nine stars out of ten due to their quick and helpful responses."
"With its Cloud Security Posture Management capability, we have the ability to read across all of our cloud-based environments, which includes AWS and Azure. We have visibility into those environments. Seeing all vulnerabilities and configurations is really powerful for us, but ultimately, the ability to use the API to query across the fleet to understand what is the current state, what is the patch level, which ones are potentially exposed for a new CVE that just came out is even more valuable. It allows us to gather really specific intelligence through simple queries."
"The most valuable feature of Orca Security is the automated scanning tool, user-friendliness, and ease of use."
"The reporting and automated remediation capabilities are valuable to me. They're real game-changers."
"The best features with Wiz Code give you a reasonable picture when it comes to vulnerabilities, which means you see the usual severity levels, you also get to see references on how to remediate vulnerabilities, and the fact that it has a visual dashboard helps all stakeholders, especially folks who need to remediate, to get that picture correctly and then take action."
"Wiz Code has positively impacted my organization through the unified platform that gives the ability to shift left in security and detect issues before they go into production."
"In my opinion, all the security features Wiz Code offers are the best."
 

Cons

"It's not all clouds that they are currently onboarded with. For instance, they are not yet with public cloud and many other private clouds."
"In my opinion, after using Orca Security for seven to eight months, areas for improvement could include automating processes as other solutions do."
"I would like to see an option to do security checks on a code level. This is possible because they have access to all of the code running in the cloud provider, and combining their site-scanning solution with that would be a nice add-on."
"A few things could potentially be improved, particularly regarding false positives and the UI."
"The timeout settings could be made more customizable, as sometimes if I leave the office early, it's still running unless manually turned off."
"We are PCI DSS compliant, so we need to scan our environment externally with tools vetted by the PCI DSS organization. Orca doesn't scan the environment externally. It only scans what's currently in the cloud."
"The interface can be a bit cranky and sometimes takes a lot of time to load."
"In the future, I'd like to see Orca work better with third-party vendors. Specifically, being able to provide sanitized results from third parties."
"I have a big improvement in mind for Wiz Code, not a small improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing depends on how many assets you have running in your cloud and how many environments you have. If you have a dev environment, test environment, and a production environment then it's really important that you have coverage for all of them."
"We have a total of 25 licenses for this solution. The solution is on a pay-and-you-use model."
"Orca Security charges are based on cloud workloads. So, it's based on workloads. If we look at one feature, it might be expensive."
"I think their pricing model is aligned with market demand. Of course, Orca could probably better align their pricing model with the needs of smaller businesses as well as some larger-scale enterprises with millions of assets. But in all fairness, I think the Orca sales team has been accommodating and ensured that we're happy with the pricing."
"Orca is very competitive when compared to the alternatives and is not the most expensive in the market, that's for sure."
"The price is a bit expensive for smaller organizations."
"Orca Security is cheaper compared to other solutions in the same space."
"Overall, the pricing is reasonable and the discounts have been acceptable."
