Pros

More Airlock Pros →

"The compliance is the most valuable aspect.""I am impressed with the product's scalability, availability, easy management, and security. We were able to integrate the product with Azure and Sentinel.""Data masking is the most valuable feature of this solution.""Imperva is easy to use and deploy. The UI is excellent.""There are a number of features that are valuable such as the account takeover and various antivirus features.""Compared to other web application firewalls in the market, Imperva does things in the most accurate way.""The solution has been quite stable. I have not seen any bugs at all.""If you are using the appliance as opposed to the virtual deployment, it can stand as the network layer-two and provide real transparency."

Cons
"The tool must be simplified."

More Airlock Cons →

"One potential improvement for Imperva is enhancing its alert system.""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 UI interface needs improvement.""I loved the approach of the cloud. The cloud has a lot of new features, like advanced web protection and DDoS protection. If those could also be on-boarded onto the on-prem versions, that would be ideal. They need to pay attention to both deployment options and not just favor one.""I don't really use it and therefore can't speak to areas of improvement.""There could be some limitations that from the converged infrastructure perspective: when you want to converge with everything and you want Imperva to get there easily because it's not a cloud component. For example, when you want to build servers and you're using OneView to manage your software-defined networks, implementing Imperva right away is not that simple. But if you're doing just a simple cloud infrastructure with servers in there, you're good to go. Also, we are not able, with Imperva, to block by signatures. Imperva by itself needs to be complemented with another service to do URL filtering.""Imperva Web Application Firewall can improve by adding more features to the dashboard. increasing the visibility of the real-time events, besides configuring the administration itself.""It would be helpful to have a "recommended deployment", or even a list of basic features that should either be used or turned on by default."

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 »
