Senior Manager - Pre-Sales at Trillium Information Security Systems
Offers robust compliance features but needs improved automation in remediation
The automation capability remediation needs improvement. The current process requires manually telling IT teams to remediate vulnerabilities, and then they update the status of these vulnerabilities in the platform. This basic feature that Rapid7 calls an automated remediation process is actually manual. We can update the status of vulnerabilities in the Rapid7 InsightVM platform and collectively see how many vulnerabilities we have identified and how many are remediated by our IT team. More automation in the remediation feature is a basic demand from many customers. The remediation part and vulnerability identification of network devices or rigid devices are not currently supported by Rapid7 InsightVM. More integration and automation are the two areas Rapid7 needs to improve in their product.

Unified dashboards have streamlined code‑to‑cloud risk tracking and reduced manual reviews
The best features of Wiz Code that I appreciate the most include their entire dashboarding and the seamless integration with different DevOps tooling like GitHub or Azure DevOps. It seamlessly integrates, allowing you to run scanners directly onto the machines without consuming too many resources, and the recategorization of vulnerabilities is absolutely wonderful, giving you a complete attack path, which is something I love about Wiz Code because it details the entire lateral movement of the issue, whether it is a complete shift-left or shift-right, serving as the differentiators compared to other tools in the market. When I talk about ROI with Wiz Code, it almost cuts you down to 20% to 25% of the daily effort needed in terms of FTE. If you are working with around 100 developers or engineers, you might come down to 60 to 70 engineers, with the rest completely automated by removing false positives, showcasing where the USP comes in.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The discovery and prioritization of vulnerabilities is a good feature along with the investigation, the trials function, and it's also user friendly."
"The most valuable feature is the site scanning, where we can provide a complete subnet and what it is we need to scan on those devices."
"The price is cheaper than other products on the market."
"The cost is what is most valuable. Compared to the other products on the market, the cost is more palatable."
"The discovery and prioritization of vulnerabilities."
"The remediation project is a pretty effective because it allows us, as clients or countries, to choose specific assets and set limitations on them for a certain period which allows us to track and follow up on those limitations. However, when it comes to real-time monitoring and live dashboards, InsightVM doesn't quite fit the bill. It's not a real-time solution and is not instant."
"The most valuable feature is the vulnerability scan."
"With Rapid7 InsightVM, the deployment process is more user-friendly."
"The best features of Wiz Code that I appreciate the most include their entire dashboarding and the seamless integration with different DevOps tooling like GitHub or Azure DevOps, allowing you to run scanners directly onto the machines without consuming too many resources, and the recategorization of vulnerabilities is absolutely wonderful, giving you a complete attack path, which is something I love about Wiz Code because it details the entire lateral movement of the issue, whether it is a complete shift-left or shift-right, serving as the differentiators compared to other tools in the market."
"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

"The automation capability remediation needs improvement."
"InsightVM is getting a little stale and is in danger of falling behind its competitors."
"One area I would like to improve in InsightVM is its integration with other solutions."
"It would be nice to have an additional feature that would provide reports on who has logged onto the console or who did what on the console."
"The authentication scan is not working."
"There was functionality present previously, however, currently, we can't integrate directly with Jira Service Desk - only the cloud version."
"The product's documentation could be enhanced with clearer and more detailed instructions."
"For the community edition one of the big issues is with the registration. Rapid 7 only supports paid domains for registration, so no .gmail.com, .yahoo.com domains."
"I have a big improvement in mind for Wiz Code, not a small improvement."
"Regarding pricing, I would say that the pricing model is a little bit hefty on the pocket."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Comparing the price with the value that we receive, I am not happy with it."
"The price of the solution is less than the competitors."
"The product is cheaper than the other similar tools available in the market."
"We have an annual license to use Rapid7 InsightVM and if we want to extend it, we will possibly choose more than one year."
"I do not have experience with the pricing of the solution."
"Our licensing costs are somewhere around $40,000 annually. There are no additional fees."
"It is pretty expensive. It depends on what you consider pricey, however, if you only look at vulnerability management solutions, such as within VM or VMDR, there are, I suppose the prices are almost the same. But I believe you will discover that for yourself."
"We purchase annual licenses."
