# Which cloud security monitoring platforms do security engineers and CISOs actually keep using long term after the initial complexity of learning the platform?

<p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">Hey G2 reviewers, researchers, and category experts, I'm trying to pin down which cloud security monitoring platforms do security engineers and CISOs stay with long-term, once the initial complexity of learning the platform is behind them.</p><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">What's striking for me in G2's own numbers: the tool that's <em>harder</em> to get going is the one users rate highest. Sysdig takes more time to stand up compared to others on the list, yet posts the strongest loyalty and support scores in the category. So "hard to learn" clearly isn't the same as "won't last." </p><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">Across<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/categories/cloud-security-monitoring-and-analytics"> </a><a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/categories/cloud-security-monitoring-and-analytics">cloud security monitoring and analytics</a>, here's how the staying power reads for me:</p><ul>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/sysdig-sysdig-secure/reviews"><strong>Sysdig Secure</strong></a><strong>: </strong>Higher learning curve, highest satisfaction (NPS 91). Teams that push through the runtime and Kubernetes depth seem to stay and rate it near the top. </li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/wiz-wiz/reviews"><strong>Wiz</strong></a><strong>: </strong>The rare easy-<em>and</em>-sticky one. Fast to onboard and still holds very high scores, which usually means it keeps delivering past the honeymoon.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/coro-cybersecurity/reviews"><strong>Coro Cybersecurity</strong></a><strong>: </strong>Simple to run and well-liked over time, especially by leaner teams. Its scores hold up rather than fading once novelty wears off.</li>

&lt;p&gt;’d separate long-term retention into two very different things: a platform that keeps proving its value, and a platform that becomes too embedded to replace easily.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The tools that genuinely earn their place tend to do a few things well over time. They keep surfacing risks the team would otherwise miss, fit into existing engineering workflows, scale as the cloud environment gets more complex, and give both practitioners and leadership something useful.&lt;/p&gt;
