We performed a comparison between AlgoSec and ManageEngine Firewall Analyzer based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Firewall Security Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."AlgoSec gives us a high level of confidence that our ACLs and our risk components are actually in line with our expectations. Because we run a lot of our firewalls as an internal change control boundary, we rely on them heavily to segregate vendor networks. It gives us a high level of confidence that those third-party networks that ride on the backbone are segregated and appropriately defined."
"Security ratings and security rules analysis are valuable features."
"The Firewall Analyzer helps us achieve our various IT compliance requirements, like ISO-27001."
"It helps to perform FW cleanup, regulations requirement, FW migration projects, etc."
"AlgoSec Firewall Analyzer can detect misconfigurations and unused or permissive rules, as well as rules without logging. Through a single dashboard, I can see all the problematic rules from all the firewalls. It's very simple, with AlgoSec, to get an analysis of all the rules, and that helps with visibility."
"It has reduced our audit preparation efforts and costs drastically and maintains continuous compliance."
"Auditors can get PDF or CSV reports without having to give them access to firewalls."
"It saves time by allowing administrators to test network traffic and pinpoint which rules are being triggered for a particular traffic flow."
"I found the reporting to be useful because not only can I go back months, but it lists the individual URLs and the time that a particular person visited."
"Overall the solution does a good job."
"Firewall Analyzer is easy to work with."
"The most valuable features of the ManageEngine Firewall Analyzer are the monitoring of the full management of the network elements and the inventory of the infrastructure."
"Firewall Analyzer helps our organization to fulfill the compliance requirement as per ISO 27001, managing the network security effectively."
"The FireFlow template does not allow the user to perform external actions like sending an email or triggering a specific action."
"It doesn't support all features on our firewalls. For instance, planning changes, which include net rules, doesn't work. It didn't integrate so well with the ACI network."
"I would like to see continued expansion to other firewall versions, platforms, and vendors."
"Since COVID-19, a number of the technical support team members have been working from home or remotely. So, we haven't gotten support people right when we need them. Sometimes, it takes a couple of hours or even days for us to get that instant support that we used to get."
"Introducing greater flexibility in editing alerts would be a highly appreciated improvement."
"The UX control panel is in need of improvement."
"There is room for improvement in the rollback process."
"The MAP has a persistent issue with a firewall that is using a double BVI (Bridge virtual interface)."
"The stability is so-so. There are always memory issues, but the solution is working great apart from that."
"ManageEngine Firewall Analyzer can improve by having better monitoring of all features from firewalls. We are using Kibana in order to monitor parts that this solution does not record. For example, having more correlation and proactive monitoring in some activity or scenario."
"It would be awesome if the product could monitor services for applications."
"The solution lacks a lot of features that other products have in the marketplace."
