Find out what your peers are saying about Amazon Web Services (AWS), F5, Microsoft and others in Web Application Firewall (WAF)."One of the big advantages of using Fortinet FortiWeb is all the Fortinet family solutions use the same user interface and logic. This makes it easy to use, configure, manage, and understand if you have used one of their solutions before or are wanting to implement other Fortinet solutions in the future. Additionally, all Fortinet solutions can be managed with one application called FortiManager."
"The most valuable feature is that this product represents a whole solution, including a WAF, and even anti-defacements."
"When we had Cisco we had around thirty thousand entries on our firewalls. Now we are down to three thousand. Fortinet has a mechanism to detect all of your entries which are not used, and it can clean it up."
"The policies and the filtering are the most valuable features, especially traffic, URL, and application filtering. The solution is excellent at detecting vulnerabilities."
"It can scale well."
"Fortinet FortiWeb has improved my organization by protecting our customer's web infrastructure environment."
"SSL Offloading simplifies the public certificate handling and brings additional protection features."
"I have recently been looking at the SSL certificate features and the learning mode of the appliance. This appliance learns from the pattern of SSL attacks."
"Tenable.io Web Application Scanning is very easy to use."
"It collects the vulnerabilities on the hostnames and sends them to the Tenable.io cloud. Tenable has its own cloud where Tenable.io is running, but there are many connectors to other cloud solutions. Tenable can do vulnerability scanning for other cloud managers such as Azure, Amazon, and so on."
"The most valuable feature is the reporting, which provides a good level of detail with respect to vulnerabilities."
"The solution is stable."
"It is fully automated."
"The most valuable features of Tenable.io Web Application Scanning are the integration into specific use cases and scanning. All of the features of the solution are useful."

The Return on Investment is substantial. I recommend the solution to all."
"Our customers adopt this solution because of the replication testing and the vulnerability assessment it can do. It is a multi-faceted product."
"The initial setup in our data center was somewhat complex."
"A user interface or dashboard for troubleshooting is needed."

"New releases and old releases have some bugs, some features do not work as good as we want but every new release the Fortinet team fixes up problems."
"In terms of performance, it needs to be more robust."
"It costs too much."
"Another area for improvement is logging. When troubleshooting, the logs sometimes take a while to update. We've had people report that some things aren't logged if they're successful. It's a bit hit-and-miss. For example, sometimes people access one of our services, and it's successful, but we don't see that in the logs."
"I would like to see more improvements with respect to threat intelligence."
"The solution's dashboards could be improved and made more user-friendly."
"They have a general dashboard for web application scanning, but the dashboards and reporting can be improved. They probably have some features in their roadmap."
