Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The FIM feature, the information in the new management system, and their support are the most valuable features. The scanned results are quite fast as compared to other platforms compared to scanning timing. It takes about a minute or two minutes. Also, the results of the Comodo scan results are in detail.""The solution is pretty stable. I've never faced pressing issues or hanging issue."

"It has fewer false positives""If you are using the appliance as opposed to the virtual deployment, it can stand as the network layer-two and provide real transparency.""It has threat intelligence and we are using Incapsula. With threat intelligence, we can separate HTTP and HTTPS traffic. We can use Incapsula to send all the threat intelligence to the WAF.""The configurability of the tools and the ease of operation to be the most valuable feature of Imperva.""Compared to other web application firewalls in the market, Imperva does things in the most accurate way.""The solution is stable.""Very scalable and very stable firewall for web applications, with a good interface in its cloud version. Mitigation is its most valuable feature. The technical support for this product is also good.""I have had a positive experience with Imperva Web Application Firewall's tech support so far. They are knowledgeable and respond on time."

Cons
"The solution needs to build better performance, specifically in the hardware resources.""A small problem is from the support team. Sometimes they are a bit delayed."

More Comodo cWatch Cons →

"I loved the approach of the cloud. The cloud has a lot of new features, like advanced web protection and DDoS protection. If those could also be on-boarded onto the on-prem versions, that would be ideal. They need to pay attention to both deployment options and not just favor one.""Some of the features should be included in the next release is a file integrating monitoring tool. This feature should be improved.""In the past, I have bugs on the WAF. I've contacted Imperva about them. Future releases should be less buggy.""It would be helpful to have a "recommended deployment", or even a list of basic features that should either be used or turned on by default.""There could be some limitations that from the converged infrastructure perspective: when you want to converge with everything and you want Imperva to get there easily because it's not a cloud component. For example, when you want to build servers and you're using OneView to manage your software-defined networks, implementing Imperva right away is not that simple. But if you're doing just a simple cloud infrastructure with servers in there, you're good to go. Also, we are not able, with Imperva, to block by signatures. Imperva by itself needs to be complemented with another service to do URL filtering.""It is complicated to integrate the solution's on-cloud version with other platforms.""Their portal is very limited and needs improvement.""An improvement for Imperva WAF would be to reduce the number of false positives and create more strong use cases based on AI/ML or behavioral analytics."

  • "The cost of this solution depends on the platform."
  • "The price of this solution is a little bit high compared to competitors."

    Top Answer:For ADC, any ADC can do a good job. But in case if you want to add WAF functionality to the same ADC hardware you have to look for other ADC's like F5, Imperva, Radware, Fortinet, etc. 
    Top Answer:You can have a look to Imperva Cloud WAF, the anti-DDoS mitigation is under 1s and works very well. I observed a lot of DDoS attacks that were well managed (even not seen by the customer) by Imperva… more »
