"Arbor has a global ranking in reliability and credibility. They are very unique and can respond to a very wide scope of threats from their global deployment."
"Companies that live from their presence on the internet will get a very high return on investment from Arbor."
"I like all the features together as a whole."
"The solution provides good protection against volumetric DDoS attacks."
"We also use it by serving our customers' cloud signaling services with on-premise APS devices."
"We have researched them all, and it's a good solution all around."
"Among its key features: Detects and mitigates DDoS attacks at L3 to L7; negligible to zero false-positives; Generates and sends reports without the need for an expensive third-party solution."
"The most valuable feature is the cloud DDoS scrubbing capability."
"I find the interface easy to use."
"The product's initial setup phase was really easy."
"The product allows the users to adjust the thresholds."
"It allows me to see all the traffic on my network."
"The solution already has security profiles and it can protect from DDoS attacks and other kinds of attacks."
"An improvement to Arbor DDoS would be to make evaluation licenses and virtual machines available."
"I would also like more visibility into their bad actor feeds, their fingerprint feeds. We try to be good stewards of the internet, so if there are attacks, or bad actors within our networks, if there were an easier way for us to find them, we could stop them from doing their malicious activity, and at the same time save money."
"The implementation should be made easier."

"There aren't really any aspects of the solution we are unhappy with. It's been a positive experience overall."
"Alerts and reporting features must be improved."
"I would like to see analytics, big data."
"The only thing they need to do is to automate it. Today, you must create tools that do not require the use of an expert or anyone with special skills."
"The solution can be a little more user-friendly and it can be more affordable."
