What do you like best about the product?
Very efficient view of all cloud assets and security aspects of the infrastructure. very intuitive UI and simple integration and implementation. Onboarding was easy.
The solution allowed us to to find and resolve issues that we would not have found or resolved without it (also thanks to the green/red agents).

What do you dislike about the product?
Can be a little costly when workloads grow, but still worth the investment.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Wiz gives us a 360-degree view of all our cloud assets, including issues, vulnerabilities, and EOL components. Instead of dealing with thousands of lines of vulnerabilities and issues, it helps us focus and prioritize what needs to be fixed first. AI agents (green/red) help resolve issues and discover others that are otherwise invisible.

Wiz: agentless cloud visibility with Security Graph and truly prioritized risks
Reviewed on Aug 06, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
The most useful aspect of Wiz, in my opinion, is the agentless approach combined with the Security Graph: it analyzes the entire cloud environment via API (without installing software) and clearly maps the relationships between vulnerabilities and access.
One of the advantages I appreciate the most is the Zero Alert Fatigue: it identifies only real risks and concrete attack paths (Toxic Combinations), minimizing false alarms.

What do you dislike about the product?
The aspect I appreciate least about Wiz is the high cost, calculated based on the number of resources/workloads.
Among the main disadvantages is the complexity of the initial integration: even though the scanning is fast, correctly configuring policies, reports, and more advanced workflows requires in-depth expertise and some time to be set up properly.

Wiz Unified Our Vulnerability Management and Boosted Leadership Visibility
Reviewed on Aug 04, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
Wiz simplifies and unifies my vulnerability management workflows. I was able to combine Cloud Security Management and Vulnerability Management into a combined program with one product and help bring visibility to leadership and make the largest stride I have ever made in years. Not to mention the product is improving at such a rapid pace with new capabilities that help us better understand our exposure in ways I have never imagined.
What do you dislike about the product?
The vulnerability scanners are not full fledged and we rely on using other products connected in to get data. This is a trade off for cost and hopefully we wont need external costs longer term
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Cloud security management and Vulnerability Management. Unified and more visibility.

Clear, Actionable Cloud Risk Visibility with an Intuitive UI
Reviewed on Aug 03, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
Wiz gives me clear, actionable visibility into our cloud risks through an intuitive UI. It integrates well with our cloud environment, performs reliably, and helps engineering and security teams prioritize the issues that matter most. Onboarding was straightforward, and the context Wiz adds around each risk significantly improves our efficiency and ROI.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some vulnerabilities were surfaced only after they had been formally acknowledged, rather than during the earlier discussions when they were already known.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before Wiz, understanding our cloud security posture required significant manual work across multiple AWS accounts and tools. Wiz gives us one clear view of vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, excessive permissions, and exposed resources, allowing us to prioritize the risks that actually matter and resolve them much faster.
