We performed a comparison between Imperva DDoS and Qualys VMDR based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Cloudflare, NETSCOUT, Akamai and others in Distributed Denial of Service (DDOS) Protection."Technical support was very helpful."
"The most valuable features for us are the DDoS and Bot."
"The dashboard is good and user-friendly."
"Integration with IBM AS/400 and Db2 is okay."
"Imperva DDoS is fairly stable, and its availability is quite high."
"The complete solution is valuable for everything it delivers and the protection it offers."
"The setup of Imperva DDoS was easy."
"It's very pretty easy to onboard the URL."
"I find the most valuable features are the continuous monitoring. Even on premises, there is constant monitoring."
"Qualys VM has allowed us to know the vulnerabilities we need to prioritize based on the threat levels and the possible impact if there's an intrusion."
"Provides great functionality."
"The most valuable features are vulnerability detection and the scanning capability to enable identification of vulnerabilities across our network."
"I like that we have many scanners and channels that don't overload. It helps us scan and track easily. Also, the tagging system is good for tagging. We can still use QualysAgent task ID tools even if tags aren't made."
"Qualys VM's best features are vulnerability management and customizable scoring."
"The most valuable feature is the certificate management."
"We also like the flexibility in their licensing."
"A limited tool if you're looking to customize."
"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 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 should have more points of presence in Africa."
"I am not sure if this application has a policy where you can create your custom policy and run it as our firewall. We should have some ability to also create some custom policy, then run it as a firewall."
"I miss being able to integrate the dashboard with other BI tools we are using. We have to export and import data to be able to present it, and doing so is a lot of work."
"The log analytics interface within Incapsula isn't really good. For example, if you have to get all logs from there, it's a very cumbersome process."
"It's quite expensive."
"It is a struggle to be able to pull our report and to be able to do onboarding using automated tools."
"The disadvantage of working with Qualys is that the graphical interface is quite outdated."
"Integration could be better. When you think about scanning, it's not used just with this product alone but with other Qualys products. If you think about the bundle, the product itself is good. But integration with other products and packages has space for improvement. They should also offer a better price for bundles."
"Qualys VM should improve its methodology."
"Qualys currently does not have any features for scanning SCADA, IoT, and Industrial Control Systems."
"I do not like that all of the data is stored on the cloud."
"The only improvement I can think of is on the implementation side. At times it is a bit slow."
"There's a need to upgrade or fix the potential vulnerability rate. Around 20,000 potential vulnerabilities were showing in Qualys VMDR, but none of the other tools showed them. When we checked, it wasn't the case. Support explained that even small issues were being counted as vulnerabilities, causing issues in our audit. So, the security features could be improved to identify vulnerabilities accurately."
