We performed a comparison between Arbor DDoS and Check Point DDoS Protector based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Distributed Denial of Service (DDOS) Protection solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Our customers are very happy when we provide them with the interface... They can check how many attacks they have faced and how many attacks have been blocked."
"In the GUI, the packet capture is a very good option, as is the option to block an IP address."
"The stability is okay and we have not encountered problems with the solution."
"It is fully mitigating the attacks. We've dealt with other ones where we didn't necessarily see that. The detection is very good. It's also very simple to use. Arbor is a single pane of glass, whereas with other solutions you might have a detection pane of glass and then have to go to a separate interface to deal with the mitigation. That single pane of glass makes it much simpler."
"The most valuable feature is mitigation, which can blackhole the IP."
"The auto-mitigation, that signaling feature, where it automatically raises an alarm that a line is under attack, is important. The upstream service provider will then do something to reduce the load on our internet lines. The fact that it's automated means I don't have to sit and always be looking at threats coming through. It does it almost automatically, without any intervention by me."
"The most valuable features include the traffic categorization and control of the traffic. The filtering of the traffic is very precise. When you want to stop some traffic, you precisely stop that traffic."
"Arbor DDoS's best feature is that we can put the certificates in, and it will look at layer seven and the encrypted traffic and do the required signaling."
"Check Point detects and automatically mitigates attacks, which helps our organization protect our infrastructure."
"Check Point DDoS Protector is a product that uses machine learning and behavior analysis."
"As our business continues to grow, we can grow this product simultaneously."
"One of its most outstanding functions is the zero-day DDOS."
"Currently, we have fewer incidents with viruses. We improved our IQ operations and security using this solution. Our company's better after using Check Point."
"It can be deployed as a hardware appliance, virtual appliance, or as a cloud service."
"It uses several layers of security."
"This product uses auto-learning and behavioral analysis to establish baselines for legitimate traffic, and automatically detects and blocks traffic behavior that does not conform."
"The solution's shortcomings are related to its documentation, so it's an area that needs to improve."
"An issue which needs to be addressed concerns information I received of attacks on the radar and Arbor, allegedly, not taking any action."
"They should improve the reporting section and make it a little bit more detailed. I would like to have much better and more detailed reports."
"An improvement would be to provide information on how pricing is done on different customer levels."
"Arbor's SSL decryption is confusing and needs external cards to be installed in the devices. This is not the best solution from an architectural point of view for protecting HTTPS and every other protocol that is SSL encrypted."
"There is definitely room for improvement in third-party intelligence and integrations."
"The look and feel of the management console is a little old, excessively simple. If you compare it with other solutions, the look and feel of the console is like you're using technology from five or six years ago. It doesn't show all the technology that is actually behind it. It looks like an older solution, even though it is not."
"I think the diversity of protection is extremely limited. It must be expanded in future upgrades and versions."
"The public documentation is a detail that must be improved in order to have greater implementations with the best practices in this case of the Check Point manufacturer."
"Check Point should develop a DDoS solution because they don't have one and we need to use another solution, in our case, Imperva. This is a problem because we need to have two firewalls. We would like to only have one solution because it would improve the management, we would have fewer incidents, and we wouldn't need to talk to more than one person for support."
"The Check Point support language is only in English."
"The mitigation part could be improved."
"Monitoring and reporting are the things that can be introduced in the future."
"It is an expensive tool for some companies."
"I would like applications for Android and IOS where we can follow the events, and, if necessary, make changes."
"The solution should greatly improve its interface."
