Before you switch
Should you replace Wiz?
Why people stay 4
- Initial coverage arrives quickly because deployment does not depend on endpoint-by-endpoint installation.
- Contextual risk chains help teams focus on exploitable combinations instead of chasing every CVE.
- The interface makes it practical to investigate assets across several cloud providers from one place.
- Broad CNAPP coverage can replace separate posture, entitlement, vulnerability, and data security tools.
Why people switch 5
- Custom quotes and negotiated contracts make costs difficult to compare before entering a sales process.
- Licensing can become expensive as the cloud estate and number of enabled modules grow.
- Busy environments need careful policy tuning, exclusions, and ownership rules to prevent alert backlogs.
- The agentless core does not remove the need for specialized endpoint or deep runtime controls.
- Most fixes still happen in cloud consoles, repositories, or ticketing systems rather than directly inside Wiz.
