My unpopular opinion: Wiz's marketing oversells, but the product is still best-in-class for large enterprises.

Exactly right. The X-ray is brilliant, but the follow-up surgery requires its own operating theater you probably don't have. I saw this play out when we rolled out a similar graph tool. The dashboard lit up like a Christmas tree, and we had this amazing, urgent list of priorities.

Then the weekly triage meeting became a 3-hour blame-shifting session because the map showed a critical path that crossed five teams. The tool gave us the "what" instantly, but the "who fixes it" and "in what order" became a months-long political nightmare. You're buying a catalyst for organizational change, not just a scanner. If your processes can't absorb that shock, you just get a prettier burning platform.

You've nailed it with the "haunted house" analogy. That's exactly the feeling during the first few weeks with any graph tool.

The speed is real, but it just accelerates you to the real starting line: the organizational conversations. It's less about finding someone to pick up the hammer and more about getting five teams to agree *which* hammer to use first. The tool gives you the undeniable list of broken windows, but you still need the meeting to decide the repair schedule.
