Room For Improvement

CloudCheckr struggles with integration, usability, and customization, affecting performance, security, and user experience across platforms.
Users seek better pricing, reporting, integration, language support, usability, documentation, vulnerability management, notifications, and flexible dashboards in Snyk.
Financial management is not a technically savvy environment; they are an accounting department, so they need that footprint and that ease of transition to build out their dashboards effectively without having to run into highly technical evolutionary actions that we see when we work with CloudCheckr.
DSRE Director Of Dev Ops/Operations (Management Executive) at a outsourcing company with 51-200 employees
CloudCheckr is a powerful and feature-rich tool with abundant metrics.

Another area is drift analysis; there have been complaints about tracking optimization opportunities, such as how to track opportunities identified in January and whether they were resolved in February.
Sr PreSales Cloud Architect at a outsourcing company with 10,001+ employees
It lacks the ability to select branches on its Web UI, forcing users to rely on CLI or CI/CD for that functionality.
CEO at a computer software company with 10,001+ employees
The inclusion of AI to remove false positives would be beneficial.
Director at Marsh
As we are moving toward GenAI, we expect Snyk to leverage AI features to improve code scanning findings.

Pricing is feature-tiered under the MSP licensing, and I would say the pricing was quite competitive and fair.

AbhishekGupta2 - PeerSpot reviewer
Sr PreSales Cloud Architect at a outsourcing company with 10,001+ employees
Centralized cloud costs have boosted savings while reporting and user experience still need work
The best features CloudCheckr offers include out-of-the-box security and compliance check features that provide over 35 different types of compliance checks at no cost, best practice checks, and alerts. Another valuable feature is the multi-cloud overview, providing unified reporting across AWS and Azure while allowing us to create different types of dashboards based on who logs into the platform. Additionally, from an MSP standpoint, there is good ease of deployment, especially the billing and chargeback functionality for a reseller or managed services provider. CloudCheckr has positively impacted my organization by helping us manage multiple customers and tens of thousands of resources while retaining performance and visibility due to its multi-cloud support. We do not have to worry about jumping from one platform to another, and the better MSP support is beneficial from a billing and chargeback automation standpoint. The integration in compliance helps identify missing areas within our customer environments and improves them. On average, it has helped us provide approximately 15 to 20% savings through right-sizing or idle resource elimination. These are some of the immediate cost savings our customers have experienced after implementing recommendations from the tool.

Improves security posture by actively reducing critical vulnerabilities and guiding remediation
Snyk's main features include open-source vulnerability scanning, code security, container security, infrastructure as code security, risk-based prioritization, development-first integration, continuous monitoring and alerting, automation, and remediation. The best features I appreciate are the vulnerability checking, vulnerability scanning, and code security capabilities, as Snyk scans all open-source dependencies for known vulnerabilities and helps with license compliance for open-source components. Snyk integrates into IDEs, allowing issues to be caught as they appear in the code dynamically and prioritizes risk while providing remediation advice. Snyk provides actionable remediation advice on where vulnerabilities can exist and where code security is compromised, automatically scanning everything and providing timely alerts. Snyk has positively impacted my organization by improving the security posture across all software repositories, resulting in fewer critical vulnerabilities, more confidence in overall product security, and faster security compliance for project clients. Snyk has helped reduce vulnerabilities significantly. Initially, the repository had 17 to 31 critical and high vulnerabilities, but Snyk has helped manage them down to just five vulnerabilities, which are now lower and not high or critical.
