We performed a comparison between Cloudflare Web Application Firewall and Radware Cloud WAF Service based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Web Application Firewall (WAF) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We like that there's load balancing, firewall capabilities, DDoS protection, et cetera, all covered by Cloudflare."
"The security features are valuable. The particular feature we use is called OWASP."
"The integration of Cloudflare with Cloud Suite is its most valuable feature."
"It is configurable via API."
"The product has a valuable security control functionality."
"Does a good job preventing web application attacks."
"It protects web applications efficiently."
"Someone with a basic understanding of networking and security will be able to implement the firewall's basic features within 15 minutes."
"What makes this a comprehensive offering from Radware is that it combines WAF, ADA, bot management, and API protection, which is not currently available from any other provider in the market."
"I particularly appreciate the low administrative burden of this solution, as well as the excellent monitoring tools."
"It provides the first level of defense against external threats trying to come into the environment, but it's one of the many toolkits we use."
"Cloud WAF's interface is easy to use and protects us from OWASP Top Ten threats. Our dev team do QA checks on applications before they go live, but Cloud WAF creates an additional security layer on our website."
"The API Discovery is also very good because the application is outsourced, which means that we don't have the code. API Discovery allowed me to discover precisely how to orchestrate the API so that I could see the results."
"The solution offers good protection."
"Radware Cloud WAF Service is user-friendly and easy to deploy."
"Radware Cloud WAF Service has several valuable features, with good support and a user-friendly GUI."
"Their documentation could be better. They don't have documentation that explains everything well. They have documentation for everything you're looking for, but they lack a single piece of documentation to tie everything together. As a new user or beginner, it took us a little bit of time to figure out how to put all these things in place."
"The accuracy of the Cloudflare Web Application Firewall could be improved by reducing the number of false-negative alerts."
"The notification part could be improved. It's very much connected to Web Application Firewall, rate-limiting, and DDoS protection."
"The platform's control features related to real-time authentication and response time need improvement."
"The ModSecurity core rules need to be updated."
"Its stability could be better."
"If they add logs history within the Cloudflare offering, that would be a great benefit."
"I have experienced some difficulties with Cloudflare's support as a customer based in India."
"The Cloud Portal has room for improvement."
"There is a lot more that is expected from Radware's automated analytics for looking at events. There needs to be more context of where protection is required these days."
"We've had some issues with putting certificates in."
"If we want to publish services to a limited number of providers and we only want those providers to connect, we need to forward those requests to the Radware support team and they apply them, but it takes some time."
"Radware Cloud WAF Service has limited integrations, and I would like to see it integrate with our use of Azure DevOps."
"They have a portal for webinar training but because we are in a Spanish-speaking country, it is difficult for us to watch them. Not all of us are fluent in English, but most of the courses and webinars are in English. That part could be improved..."
"Radware does not have much online training available to help customers get the most out of this solution."
"We receive many reports from our security team of IPs flagged by our security tools, such as Palo Alto. I cannot add the file containing the IPs to get them blocked; instead, I have to contact Radware support and open a ticket for them to do it. I need to be able to block flagged IPs myself, as it currently takes more time to open a ticket, contact the support team, and wait four to six hours for a response. I want to be able to upload a file with 2,000-3,000 IPs in the console and then apply and save the configuration."
