Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Our customers are more than satisfied with the user experience provided by the product."

More Airlock Pros →

"Configuration for different application sources is most valuable. We can segregate the traffic that an application is carrying and identify the sizing in Imperva.""The most valuable features of the Imperva Web Application Firewall are performance and flexibility. We can extend or customize the box itself.""Very intuitive and granular configuration - It does not require much time, or advanced knowledge, for configuration and maintenance.""Its inline transferring mode is the most valuable because it is 100% transparent. When you change the IP, there is no change on the network side. If you can't and want to try to reach an IP, you can reach the server IP. There are many other advanced security features in it. The smallest appliances of Imperva can handle the highest traffic at a customer site. For example, a smaller appliance from Imperva can provide you the same security as an F5 product.""I have had a positive experience with Imperva Web Application Firewall's tech support so far. They are knowledgeable and respond on time.""The solution has been quite stable. I have not seen any bugs at all.""The solution is stable.""The most valuable feature of Imperva, in addition to its strong knowledge base, is its effective protection for web applications."

Cons
"The tool must be simplified."

More Airlock Cons →

"The tool's UI is complicated. It would be best to have a more accessible UI dashboard to make the job easier.""I don't really use it and therefore can't speak to areas of improvement.""Imperva Web Application Firewall could improve the API integration. It was complex for us. Additionally, The onboarding could be better.""I think that better bot protection is needed in this solution.""I would like to improve the tool's turnaround time in terms of support.""Imperva Web Application Firewall is a good system, but we found that the visibility of the diverse-path server, e.g. where the traffic is coming from, the different IPs, etc., needs improvement.""I am looking for more data enrichment. We should have the ability to add our own custom data to the system, to the live traffic.""The reporting is missing some features, such as: only two export formats, and the time period does not include the last day, week, year."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Make sure you understand the way that Imperva charges. It's very affordable. However, I would like to see a package with the Virtual Patching included. You get to do patching separately."
  • "Everybody complains about the price of this solution."
  • "The cost of this solution depends on the platform."
  • "The price of this solution is a little bit high compared to competitors."
  • "There are some licenses that you have to buy to use some features. Its price could be better. Price is always important because, at the end of the day, customers have a budget. If you can meet the budget, you can sell, and if you don't, you cannot sell."
  • "There is a license for this solution and we purchase the license annually with no additional fees."
  • "There are a couple of different licensing models."
  • "The price of Imperva Web Application Firewalls is expensive compared to others."

    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 »
