We performed a comparison between Fortinet FortiWeb 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."Fortinet FortiWeb is priced well."
"FortiWeb's ease of deployment is what we liked the most about it. Implementing FortiWeb was extremely fast and easy, which was a significant advantage. It comes with several preconfigured rule sets and templates."
"The solution is easy to configure and deploy."
"L-7 protection makes possible to protect legacy/not up-to-date servers/applications without changing the application code."
"It is easy to install and to maintain."
"It is a good product. We have just blocked everything coming from some geographical locations or certain countries, and it has been working very efficiently when I look at logs, events, and incidents generated from the system. It is generating very good analytic reports about it. This is the most valuable thing about this solution. It has load balancing and almost everything that a web application firewall needs. It is very flexible and easy to learn and configure. It can be easily learned and configured by using the information available on different channels such as YouTube."
"The support services, performance, and pricing are all valuable features. The performance is excellent."
"The most valuable feature is that this product represents a whole solution, including a WAF, and even anti-defacements."
"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."
"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."
"The solution offers good protection."
"Radware Cloud WAF Service has several valuable features, with good support and a user-friendly GUI."
"DDoS protection is a valuable feature that works efficiently."
"Geo-blocking is one of the most valuable features we use the most; most of our users are in North, Central, and South America, so we use geo-blocking to block access from other countries."
"The most valuable feature of Radware Cloud WAF Service is the visibility into attacks that are being cut off instantly."
"One of the most valuable features we have found in the solution is protection against attacks from botnet networks and the requests that these remote networks can generate that are blocked from our servers. That frees us from having to deal with that traffic."
"We would like the interface to be easier to use and more user-friendly. The interface needs to be enhanced."
"The F5 solution has more features than Fortinet FortiWeb, such as multiple load balancing."
"Integration and learning about attacks. I would improve these areas by making FortiWeb integrate with other network technologies and feedback from multiple platforms."
"Fortinet FortiWeb is not scalable. You'll need more budget to change the hardware."
"They could improve their support a little bit for faster response time."
"The solution could improve by being able to handle different use cases."
"The upgrade process could be a bit smoother."
"It can be better with web application firewalls."
"We've had some issues with putting certificates in."
"It would be ideal if Radware could offer a bundled package that includes Cloud WAF, web DDoS protection, bot manager, and Alteon for a more comprehensive security solution."
"The lower-level technical team at Radware could improve their approach to problem-solving as they sometimes are very slow."
"Radware Cloud WAF Service should provide SSL certificates for its hosting customers."
"They've changed their process for call logging. I suppose it's fine, but I used to be able to send emails in. They could also build up more local resiliency here in South Africa. They're working on that, so it isn't much of an issue now."
"The implementation was hit or miss for the first few months. They did some tweaking and, since then, there have been no problems."
"Radware does not have much online training available to help customers get the most out of this solution."
"Our only complaint is the reporting on the DDoS side. We also use Radware for on-premises DDoS protection and their Vision product. I just want to give paint you an example. We face so many Layer 3 and Layer 4 DDoS attacks on Cloud WAF. The reporting on those types of attacks can be improved."
