Find out in this report how the two Database Security solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature is the Data Masking."
"It has a lot of different components that cover the needs of our customers."
"Imperva's most valuable features are ease of use and log correlation. I also like the ability to trace activity from the host machine to the server access, the user details, and the exact query that they executed. If a database administrator or application process executes a query on the database, people know exactly what was executed, including all the variables."
"The technical support for Imperva is super, super, super."
"The cyber intelligence feature is the most valuable."
"It has a very user-friendly interface that's very detailed."
"Ability to send event monitoring and administrative activities."
"The initial setup is very simple."
"All of the other components that make up the infrastructure in the environment including the operating system are also quite valuable."
"Our clients can see all of their past actions or the wrong activity done on the network. We can load the diagnostics for the business."
"It is a good product for controlling all databases. It is helpful for auditing the data. When people are doing any actions on the databases, they are recorded automatically in the vault. You can work on the collected data to find out exactly what is happening on a database. You can implement database encryption on the databases to control people's access to the database content, such as rows and tables."
"It has provided us with a unique opportunity to automate risk discovery."
"The solution is very stable and reliable."
"Our client was scheduled to take a year and a half to set up compliance, but by deploying this product they were able to do the compliance reports within three months."
"The feature that I have found most valuable is that it can help us secure our databases."
"It has reduced the stress of collecting database event logs in silos from each database."
"It is quite expensive. I would prefer a lower price."
"Sometimes the reports are cumbersome, and you have to drill down to get more information."
"Reporting could be improved."
"The firewall features are not very strong and should be improved."
"Database security from the access management perspective could be better."
"There is sometimes lost communication and it can take a lot of troubleshooting to solve."
"It is very expensive. Its price can be better."
"The GUI for this solution could use some improvement."
"We would like to see the ability to administer and manage the solution through Enterprise Manager 13c, and development of the dashboards that are generally missing."
"Some of our customers were asking about latency when the application wants to get to the database."
"Currently, you need two servers: one for Audit Vault and one for the firewall. If they can combine them into one server, it will be great because it is costly to have two servers. It will also make its installation easier. I have heard that in the new version, there will be only one server for both."
"The product monitors only the database and not the operating systems."
"The support could improve."
"Stability could be improved, we have had some challenges"
"One feature that is missing is the ability to have a secret server that is always encrypted."
"This solution doesn't audit the network."
