Review on UpGuard by Bhanu Hays

This is a tool to evaluate vendors based on risk scores for security and compliance.

A tool to evaluate vendors based on risk scores for security and compliance was exactly what I was looking for. It provided a great way to get a holistic view of my vendors across many aspects of security and compliance, including risk analysis and penetration testing. I had been using something similar for a couple of years but it didn't offer such comprehensive coverage and integration with other tools. It's very useful if you're managing multiple services at once because there's no single point of failure like when one vendor goes down or gets hacked. And being part of an industry-leading cloud management provider (Azul) means they've got lots of practice implementing these things.

Pros
  • Comprehensive coverage
  • Integration with many other security/compliance tools
Cons
  • Cost
  • No customization options
  • They have an easier time of selling to enterprise customers than SMB
