Implementation of Governance via coding platform.
What do you like best about the product?
Real time enforcement of security policies across all the cloud environments. Provides the security by reducing the risks by centralizing the governance. Also, provide the historical revisions and dashboards for tracking purposes.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the biggest missing part from Stacklet platform has been lack of compliance frameworks. Whenever we talk about data governance, there's always talk about different compliance frameworks but it looks like there are not many frameworks currently available at this time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
1. Real time business security policies.
2. Achieving data governance across all the platforms.
3. With different laws coming out, it helps in achieving CCPA and GDPR.

Stacklet Helps Optimize Cloud Assets at Scale
What do you like best about the product?
Reasons why I like Stacklet
-Open-source policy language - Our engineers already use Cloud Custodian (c7n). Hence, they can easily add their own policies or adapt the pre-written c7n policies provided by Stacklet.
-Scalable - Stacklet makes it easy to deploy across hundreds of accounts
-Connect to Jira - Policy violations can be posted to Jira (or Slack) which our Engineers use to manage their work
-Cloud asset database - SQL-friendly cloud asset database makes it easy for our engineers to query resources or user visualize them with BI tools

Cloud governance made easier
What do you like best about the product?
Stacklet brings the best of Cloud Custodian compliance policies within manageable reach of even the most disparate and large organizations. With Stacklet, we can automate compliance checks for any of our cloud environments, along with auto-remediate any of our findings without requiring any human interaction. Compliance checks are easy to create and are well documented. Actions taken upon findings can range from as simple as record findings in a database, to sending notifications (email, IM bot messaging, ticket generation), to making a cloud provider API call to correct the setting, to custom calls to fit your unique desires. Stacklet also provides access to a database of most cloud resources defined, allowing for answers to most cloud platform questions easy to answer, as long as you can envision the SQL query. In addition to the above product portfolio, I truly love the fact that Stacklet is tightly bound with the cloud custodian community, with each team improving core aspects of the compliance policy execution framework. Stacklet's add-on of management tools and assetdb make the community offering something which is manageable with minimal effort, no matter how complicated out environment may be.
What do you dislike about the product?
Stacklet is a younger company that is still maturing their offerings. This has meant that I may need a newer feature which has not yet been coded up. In my experience, this had meant that I may need to wait a few months for most of my new feature requests. On the flip side, this has been beneficial for me in the long run as more established/older companies have a track history of equating lack of current features with a lack of desire to address my new requirements on any timeline.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Stacklet provides an easy framework to take audit requirements in the morning, have policies and remediation actions in place by lunch, and immediately turn over to my operations team. When operational questions come up, Stacklet's assetdb allow us to immediately provide the answers we're looking for so we don't need to waste time assessing our environment.

The platform is still evolving, so there are some nice-to-have features yet to be implemented.

Stacklet.io - Governance as Code
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to create custom rules in addition to the compliance packages out of the box that they provide for you. In addition to the ability to customize rules checks is their support team. Very knowledgeable and extremely helpful! And they help your team by teaching them how to use the product when working to solve problems, not just provide a canned KB article.
What do you dislike about the product?
My biggest dislike is the lack of compliance frameworks currently available out of the box for their product. I know they are adding additional frameworks at this point, and we can work around that aspect due to the ability to customize our rule checks at an extremely high level.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Near real-time cloud inventory collection that includes those resources meta-data attributes that enables us to understand the security related to that asset. This capability has helped us to do this across many cloud accounts and tenants using a centralized console to report and take action from.
How Stacklet has helped us save cloud cost and manage compliance
What do you like best about the product?
Governance as Code - Standardizing code that is consistent, and easy to use for developing cost savings, compliance, and security policies. Before we had teams and individuals using an assortment of code, bash, python, etc, and deploying them using VMs and other serverless compute services, which created issues in troubleshooting, updating, and locating the different policy scripts.
AssetDB - This allows our IT and Security teams to search (using SQL queries) across all regions and accounts, instead of having to log in to each account to search for a resource. Having the ability to generate inventory reports across accounts has also improved our ability to meet different compliance initiatives.
Notifications - Having the ability to notify users of both policy rules and reports has helped to limit the amount of pushback and increased user buy-in and adoption.
Cost - All of the above at a fraction of using native tools to attempt the same functions. This is also cost-saving in staff hours required to code and maintain all of the different policies.

What do you dislike about the product?
I feel like the product needs more work on login roles and policies, but would still recommend it without hesitation. The Stacklet team is very responsive and eager to help with any issues that we have had.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
One of the biggest issues of having a multi-organization/team environment is adoption. Stacklet has helped us manage and actually get our tagging policies off the ground and gain acceptance from teams across the board for the first time after trying for years to get buy-in. Stacklet and the Assetdb have also greatly enhanced our ability to meet various compliance initiatives by providing reports and artifacts for auditors.
Stacklet is an excellent platform for consolidating cloud security and compliance
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to customize the compliance policies to meet our specific needs, and the rich set of APIs to integrate with our automation and DevOps tools. Many other off-the-shelf compliance products have very limited customization features which lead to false positives and false negatives, and also requires more complicated exception handling processes.
Additionally, the Stacklet team has been outstanding in taking our feedback and quickly incorporating improvements in their platform.

What do you dislike about the product?
The administrative and reporting user-interfaces are still evolving, though we primarily use the APIs so it is not a big issue for us.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It gives us a single platform for multi-cloud compliance and Cloud Security Posture Management, replacing at least 4 different tools that were previously used. This greatly improves the efficiency of our compliance and engineering teams, and gives us a common set of processes and nomenclature across all of our cloud estates.
Sustainable multi-cloud governance as code
What do you like best about the product?
Stacklet elevates the open source Cloud Custodian project, wrapping with orchestration services that enable codified multi-cloud governance as code. It enables our cloud operations teams to write repeatable, declarative code policies that can be used repeatedly and map to our specific business needs as they evolve, regardless of hosting location. We're able to sustainably deliver governance services that protect financial, security, and operational outcomes at scale. As business needs or cloud providers change, I'm confident that maturing today's codified policies for tomorrow's needs.
Stacklet additional comes with an additional real-time cloud asset database service. We've been able to accelerate flexibly interrogating our cloud asset inventory in near real-time and overlaying other data sources to build enhanced business intelligence. The data outputs are driving additional perspectives of our assets and their configuration status, mapping to financial or other operational perspectives used across the organization in day-to-day operations.
The Stacklet support team has been committed to our end-user experience, receptive to taking client input to help shape and mature future capabilities. It represents a partnership - not just use of a product.

What do you dislike about the product?
As a smaller organization, Stacklet is still building their own operating maturity. It will require some patience as they experience growth & development of maturing capabilities.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's enabled sustainable cloud operations to deliver codified policies at scale that impact all areas of financial management, operational sustainability, and security detection/preventive services. These outcomes ensure we can be good stewards of protecting financials in our services, and enable secure revenue outcomes at scale.
