    It's great for connectivity. I think if you're looking at. There's a lot of players out there that do SD- WAN, you can do hosted solutions, you can do your own. If you're looking to do it yourself, I think this product works out well. I do know it's hosted elsewhere by some other companies, but for us, we want the control and we don't have a huge amount of sites, so being able to control that's important and the data that we can get out of the product, we can see just seeing the application experience through Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN, really gives us good information.

    Wiz is well-suited if you want to run real-time scans against resources that were recently patched or configured. It is good to keep track of vulnerabilities found and what can be done to resolve the issues without having to open up multiple tabs. Overall, it is good to keep an eye on how well cloud teams or cloud security teams are doing.

    Pros
    Cisco
    • We are able to use a multiple different circuits to go into the cloud, so we are not relying on just one particular private wireless. We're relying on wine circuits, ethernet, ethernet out. So it provides us that flexibility where we didn't have that before. Provides security that is very robust and flexible and scalable and it provides us with, the biggest thing is redundancy, where we have backup. For example, we have a Starlink for nuclear power plants. If our main circuits go down, we have that. And without Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN it would be very hard to actually achieve, to accomplish true redundancy. So we're happy with Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN in that regard.

    • Multi-cloud: Ability of Wiz to integrate with all of our cloud platforms makes it easy to deploy and centralizes our insights into all environments
    • UI/UX: Wiz's UI is one of, if not -- the best UI I have ever used in a security application. Wiz is able to make it easy to follow and use the application to simplify the normally overcomplicated process of parsing through security information and tools.
    • Marketing: Hosting meetups such as Wizdom has demonstrated Wiz's investment into its customers by providing us with more encouragement to use the app. The merch, ads, and presentation are above and beyond many companies in the tech industry.
    • Threat Intel: We rely on Wiz for the latest finds in vulnerabilities across all platforms, and since it is incorporated into the application, it makes this easy and fast to push out necessary steps without going through multiple layers of communication between vendors, cyber governance, security analysts, and developers.

    Cons
    Cisco
    • I will say the way we use it now, and I think what happened was the way it was deployed, it was fine, but unfortunately over the course of the years we've gotten a little out of hand with our device templates and feature templates. I think if there's any form of feedback that I would give to Cisco is how do we find ways to improve the environment as it stands so we get to a certain point with the environment and then we don't know how to undo it or fix it or optimize the environment. Because right now we're in a position where we're playing a lot of catch up and clean up and if there was a way or some tool or feature that we can take advantage of that would allow us to optimize that environment where we will kind of corner ourselves into a lot of problems in the future. There's some feature or something that we could take advantage of that will allow us to optimize that environment and not let it get out of control pretty easily. That would be my suggestion.

    • I would like to see the modification of the issue status to be wrapped in some form of a permission
    • I would like to be able to show filtered queries on the Identity Entitlements screen also on the security graph.
    • I wish I didn't have to create an automation rule (when the rule does just about the same thing in each) for each project (in Wiz).

    I would rate SD-WAN highly because it has significantly improved network performance, reliability, and cost-efficiency for my organization. Its ability to optimize traffic dynamically, enhance security, and simplify management across multiple locations has been invaluable. With SD-WAN, we’ve reduced dependency on costly MPLS, improved cloud application performance, and gained greater control over our network infrastructure.

    Usability
    Cisco
    The niche configurations are given equal focus as the standard use cases, which can make onboarding difficult in the beginning (ie why am I not using an entire tab of the portal), but aside from that part, the dashboard is relatively easy to navigate and apply the configuration. The metrics and analytics available are also nice to have in a single pane.

    The UI is very user-friendly, with documentation available on every page of the application. New users can learn about the product features as they navigate through several different pages, using the instructions at the top of each page, making it quite easy to use.

    We've used the old Cisco SD-WAN, which no longer exists. It was a lot more complex to configure what is now called Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN. So they've definitely come a long way in that it is a lot less complicated to set up and template based.

    We previously used Lacework but transitioned to Wiz as part of our effort to improve cloud security visibility and streamline risk management. While Lacework provided useful insights, we found that Wiz offered a clearer, more intuitive interface and better collaboration features, making it easier for both Security and Engineering teams to work together.
    The Security Graph and automated risk analysis in Wiz have been especially valuable, helping us quickly understand exposures and prioritise fixes. Overall, the transition to Wiz has improved how we manage security risks across our cloud environment.

    Return on Investment
    Cisco
    • Our branch offices can connect to our enterprise network and the internet quickly and securely, which has helped to increase productivity and reduce downtime.
    • We have been able to reduce our dependence on expensive MPLS connections, and instead utilize a combination of broadband and LTE connections, which are more cost-effective
    • The centralized location improves network visibility and troubleshooting process

    • Wiz has saved us a lot of money and headaches. It finds problems we didn't even know we had, like weak passwords and open ports. This helps us fix things before hackers can find them. It's like having a team of security experts working 24/7.
    • Plus, Wiz can fix some problems itself, saving us time and money. It's a great investment for our business.
    • Wiz has made our cloud much safer. It helps us find and fix problems quickly, which means we can focus on our core business. It's like having an extra layer of protection for our data and systems.
