Find out in this report how the two Distributed Denial of Service (DDOS) Protection solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."New and innovative way to protect the client's data."
"From what I've seen so far, there are no negatives to report as of yet"
"I rate its stability a ten out of ten."
"I like Cloudflare's application gateway and DDoS protection."
"There are key things that are used for our enterprise customers, such as Lambda and DNS."
"The most valuable feature of Cloudflare is that it has a free version. They give us the free version with the anti-DDoS features and also the load balancing solution."
"Generally, I am satisfied with this product."
"The UI is good."
"They have a hybrid model approach if a client wants to go that way."
"It has kept us up and operational on a day-to-day basis, without being interrupted by an attack from outside sources."
"Technologically simple and effective."
"The pricing is reasonable. It's not overly expensive."
"The product is very effective and performs well on devices."
"The important features include automated protection and defense against many attacks, it's important that our networks are protected in the Radware cloud."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The dashboard is the best part, and there is also the ease of operations."
"It should have easier documentation for the configuration. It's very technical and people who aren't technical should also be able to do the configuration."
"DNS Management."
"The reporting can definitely be improved to offer a lot more explanation on something that may have happened or has actually happened."
"The solution could use more analytics on the backend to give us more insights into everything. More reports would be helpful."
"Technical support is lacking."
"We're facing challenges due to an upgrade in the machine learning model. The problem arises from some users abusing the APIs, resulting in an influx of suspicious traffic. Cloudflare's learning model mistakenly identifies this traffic as human. Consequently, it assigns it a higher trust score, akin to legitimate human traffic, causing complications in our architecture. Previously, such traffic would have been categorized as suspicious, enabling us to apply appropriate blocking rules. However, we encounter difficulties distinguishing between genuine and suspicious traffic with the new categorization. Despite these challenges, overall, Cloudflare remains the preferred solution compared to Azure, AWS CloudFront, and Google Cloud Armor."
"The product needs to improve its automation."
"The timing aspect can lead to it being considered overpriced. This is a particular concern we have with Cloudflare, as they may struggle with accurately detecting the client."
"There needs to be more reporting."
"I would like to see better implementation of a zero-day attack implementation strategy with self-mitigation."
"I would like to see more graphics within the dashboard. Right now, you are required to buy tools in order to have graphical representation for your monitoring."
"I had some trouble in the registration account prior to deployment, but it was fixed. They were not very fast or responsive, however. It took about one week to resolve the issue."
"This solution may not cover all of the requirements in situations for which I am unfamiliar, and there is always room for improvement."
"There's room for improvement in the clarity of the feedback provided by the command service in the CLI."
"They need to increase the limit of devices that we can manage."
"It would be ideal if they could expand protocol support to cover emerging communication standards and ensure comprehensive protection against diverse attack vectors."
