We performed a comparison between iBwave Wi-Fi, RedSeal, and Tufin Orchestration Suite based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Ekahau, NetAlly, iBwave and others in Network Modeling and Simulation."iBwave Wi-Fi's tech support is great. They pick up their phones. I have no complaints."
"The stability and feature set of the application are top notch and can't be matched."
"I find the high-quality Heatmap generation, multi-floor, and wire mapping features to be most valuable."
"The solution's 3D imaging is amazing."
"Compared to other tools, iBwave Wi-Fi provides 95% accuracy and generates heatmaps."
"The 3D Coverage is a good feature that shows the signal propagation in three dimensions."
"It can speed up design."
"This is the only solution in the world that gives you a digital resilience score."
"RedSeal integrates the network and gives us a visual or graphical overview of our network. If an organization is geographically dispersed, for instance, with one office in Canada and one office in the Philippines, the whole network, including all devices, is integrated into RedSeal, and you can see from where the traffic is going in and out."
"The most valuable features are network mapping and configuration."
"There are a lot of benefits to using the reporting. It gives us duplicate objects, duplicate services, shadow firewall rules, and the firewall rules not needed for a given number of days or months."
"The most valuable feature are role and objects usage for individual objects and app usage."
"SecureChange is the most interesting part. It all comes down to having the user request firewall access and SecureChange, based on workflows, takes care of it, sending two or three emails to the business approvers. With one click, you can automate a firewall rule."
"It is a great solution. If you have all the devices and firewalls in place, the amount of details that you get along with the network topology is very good."
"Tufin is our audit trail for all changes. We have to be PCI compliant, and it's the tool we go to for enforcing PCI on the network side."
"The visibility is very good. We have managers who are overseeing it, and they are approving things through it."
"Tufin is the only multi-vendor firewall tool that is available, and it helps to bring everything together and report on what all of the rules are."
"The most valuable feature is that it extends security entries in the firewall policies."
"Areas of improvement would include more functionality in the Mobile App, expanded reporting features, and some shortcut features."
"It would be good if we could involve a visual while designing the backhaul."
"iBwave Wi-Fi doesn't have a distributor feed platform."
"I am currently looking for an alternative due to my reluctance with the reliability of this product."
"The cost of the solution could be improved. It's extraordinarily expensive."
"I would like to be able to see two buildings at the same time so that you can create a campus view."
"It would do iBwave well to become more involved with their clients."
"One of the areas of concern is the GUI. It is important to our customers that the GUI looks beautiful. It's a Java Client, so you have a Java dependency."
"The dashboard should be improved to make correlating data easier to do."
"Sometimes, it required us to refresh the configuration. When we integrated any of the configurations into the device, sometimes, it could not detect the exact picture of that device. So, we had to reset the device to see that if it was giving true-positive results or false-positive results. In some cases, we were not able to get true-positive results. There was some kind of bug in that version. Its interface is not user-friendly and needs to be improved. It takes time to understand the interface and various options. Skybox has quite a user-friendly interface. They could provide a feature for compliance audit policy if it is already not there. A compliance audit policy ensures that all configurations are based on the best practices standards, such as CIS benchmarks standard or other similar standards. It provides visibility about whether your device configuration is based on best practices or not. Usually, such a feature is provided by other solutions such as Meteor or Tenable Nessus."
"It does not natively support all of the Check Point functions which is a big deal."
"I would rate their reports as a four out of ten. I don't like the way that they are shown. It is too hard to export and send them to our clients."
"There were some hiccups here and there with the initial setup."
"A big improvement would be on the USP policy. If we could use Palo Alto to take those zone names and auto import them into the policy, then just do the policy based on the zone names instead of having to put in every single subnet."
"I would like the application to have faster response times. E.g., the dashboard may take up to two minutes to load. Or, when we do the topology seating its two and a half hours. I would like to get those times down and increase the efficiency of the product there."
"My worry with Tufin is that it cannot connect to Fortinet, which is what I want to do."
"The GUI needs more visibility in terms of licensing because it is hard to tell which products and licensed and which are not."
"We were just talking to them about usage for the F5 platform. They will not be going after specific environments, but a more OpenAPI. They will have other companies write it, etc. It's a little different than I had expected."
