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."With real-time packet capture features, you can easily and quickly response."
"The stability is okay and we have not encountered problems with the solution."
"The product allows us to check real-time progress, including latency and network activities."
"The solution is easy to use."
"The quality of the technical support provided by Arbor DDoS is premium."
"Predefined filters/techniques to easily stop the attacks and start mitigation."
"Arbor has a global ranking in reliability and credibility. They are very unique and can respond to a very wide scope of threats from their global deployment."
"We are able to respond quickly and prevent DDoS attacks."
"The product's initial setup phase was really easy."
"The solution already has security profiles and it can protect from DDoS attacks and other kinds of attacks."
"It is a user-friendly product in terms of monitoring and updating policies."
"I find the interface easy to use."
"It allows me to see all the traffic on my network."
"The most valuable feature is the cloud DDoS scrubbing capability."
"The solution is very user-friendly and very easy to use."
"The product allows the users to adjust the thresholds."
"A small improvement could be a better reporting system."
"Sometimes it blocks legitimate traffic. If a legitimate user is trying to access the server continuously, the product suspects that this is a DoS traffic file. That is a case where it needs to improve. It needs machine-learning."
"The look and feel of the management console is a little old, excessively simple. If you compare it with other solutions, the look and feel of the console is like you're using technology from five or six years ago. It doesn't show all the technology that is actually behind it. It looks like an older solution, even though it is not."
"The support got worse after NETSCOUT acquired Arbor."
"The solution could be more granular to include logs per second and enhanced pipeline monitoring for router licenses."
"There is always room for improvement for any product or service. If we can bring in more agility when deploying services, that is definitely a scope which we can work towards. Nowadays, everything is being offered as a service model. It is not that we have to deploy the physical hardware, many things move up to the cloud, or even can be delivered in the VNS form in the customer's environment as well. So, in that space, if we can add more features to make it more seamless for customers to use and make it available through some marketplace, not only at the hyperscalers, but also for any on-prem deployment, that definitely would be a big plus."
"The product could have end-to-end platform visibility."
"The regional support here in African could improve, such as marketing and account managers."
"I would like to see analytics, big data."
"The web interface could be much better."
"I find that there have been issues in the past year with the solution hanging. It freezes often."
"The only thing they need to do is to automate it. Today, you must create tools that do not require the use of an expert or anyone with special skills."
"The primary area for improvement is the on-premises capacity limit, currently fixed at 10 GB."
"The solution can be a little more user-friendly and it can be more affordable."
"The product’s pricing needs improvement."
"Alerts and reporting features must be improved."
