We performed a comparison between Imperva DDoS and Verizon EdgeCast based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two CDN solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."There is no need to have an appliance in house for the services because it is on the cloud."
"Scalability is pretty easy on the base platform. You just add another, and you're ready to go."
"Technical support provides good, quick responses."
"Integration with IBM AS/400 and Db2 is okay."
"The solution is very good at intercepting traffic before it gets to our data centers."
"There are quite a few useful Imperva Incapsula features. For example, one of them is the reports. The graphics are very good and it's easy to configure. The whole process is very fast and reliable too. They have good tech support as well."
"An improvement has been to our website: It increases the speed of our response, the capacity of the site, and optimizes the bandwidth."
"Incapsula takes care of the CDN infrastructure and bandwidth volume, providing several enterprise "load balancing" features."
"The Rules Engine V4 is the most valuable feature."
"It's super easy to use and integrate with."
"The product is easy to use and easy to implement."
"I would like to see automated reporting to improve visibility."
"I would like to have support for SSL management and secure DNS."
"The weakest point of Imperva is their first level of support, which should be improved. They should also improve the access and security logs viewing directly on the portal. I would like to see better access and security logs through the portal and not only through a SIM solution. Currently, if you want to explore your access and security logs from Imperva, you need a SIM tool or a SIM infrastructure on your side to do it. You can't do it manually or directly through the portal, which is a big problem for us. I had a call yesterday with Imperva for the roadmap, and I just told them this. They agreed that this is an improvement point from their side."
"Imperva now offers add-ons to add functionality, but I would like to see these included in the product, even if it would cost more."
"The salespeople tend to exaggerate its capabilities, which can cost you money if you don't verify the information."
"The product could use a broader scope in the area of policies."
"Its price could be improved. It is quite expensive. It will be good if we could export the configuration. Currently, to control the configuration, we need to go to each website, which is not very convenient."
"The rules surrounding the making of web applications could be improved."
"In the next release, I would like to see more global endpoints for their CDN and a lower price."
"The web interface of the Verizon Edgecast portal is very old. It's not user-friendly, slow, and it is missing some valuable features like the ability to make bulk changes."
"We could not create more than 15 custom rules."
