"The most valuable feature is the web application firewall."
"The technical support is good."
"Easier http to https redirect using page rules"
"I rate its stability a ten out of ten."
"The most valuable feature of Cloudflare is the GUI. You are able to control the solution very well through the interface. There is a lot of functionality that is embedded in the service."
"The UI is good."
"The simplicity of the overall dashboard makes it a great product for a user like me who has less understanding of the internet than a developer or other more technical people. It gives me peace of mind. I also love the easy customization of the Page Rules."
"The most valuable feature is the automatic reports on new databases, which gives us up-to-date inventory management."
"Currently, we have audit features for auditing databases, for example, granular auditing, which we really enjoy. We've been using it to check what users do."
"The technical support for Imperva is super, super, super."
"They have very good documentation and knowledgebase resources that add to the depth of their support."
"The cyber intelligence feature is the most valuable."
"The functionality is very useable and easy to understand."
"The audit feature is great. It is totally encrypted."
"I like Imperva SecureSphere platform forms. Imperva SecureSphere is the foundation for SecureSphere data, file and web application solutions."
"The pricing could be improved."
"Although I think it's quite good, it doesn't provide me with all the features I would expect to have if I were using Imperva."
"Cloudflare could offer a better view or maybe dashboards of the main resources used in the client."
"The solution could use more analytics on the backend to give us more insights into everything. More reports would be helpful."
"It would be good if Cloudflare could have more servers for better traffic routing or an increase in the traffic routed. This is what I'd like to improve in Cloudflare."
"Latencies are always a problem."
"For the free and Pro plans, Cloudflare could use a simple bot to provide information to users. This would improve support, especially for less advanced users who utilize the free components."
"We are a product integrator and reseller, and we would like to have a better partner relationship, similar to a channel sales relationship. Sometimes we are on our own or get diverted by Cloudflare because they have direct sales, which competes with us and makes it difficult to build a relationship with this company since we want to be an MSP or a managed service provider for the solution."
"The GUI for this solution could use some improvement."
"The GUI is bad."
"The firewall features are not very strong and should be improved."
"I'd like to see some sort of solution for storage."
"The only challenge I see is that SecureSphere is deployed on servers or databases which are held on physical infrastructure. However, there are databases which are hosted on cloud platforms and Imperva has a separate tool altogether for that, not SecureSphere."
"There is sometimes lost communication and it can take a lot of troubleshooting to solve."
"Improvements can be made in data enrichment and enhancing the GUI (Graphical User Interface) for a better user experience."
"They can maybe look at its pricing model. Its pricing could be cheaper for the African countries or developing economies."
