Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
"The initial setup was very straightforward. Deployment took about ten minutes or less."
"The ability to take multiple data sets and match those data sets together is the solution's most valuable feature. The data lake that comes with it is very useful because that allows us to match data sets with different configurations that we wouldn't normally be able to match."
"The security firewall plus the features that protect against database injections or scripting,"
"The most valuable feature is the scalability because it automatically scales up or scales down as per our requirements."
"The most valuable aspect is that it protects our code. It's a bit difficult to overwrite code in our application. It also protects against threats."
"AWS has flexibility in terms of WAF rules."
"This product supplies options for web security for applications accessing sensitive information."
"Its best feature is that it is on the cloud and does not require local hardware resources."
"The initial setup is pretty easy."
Cons
"They should work to define more threats, add more security, and make it more compliant with more security companies."
"The solution is cloud-based, and therefore the billing model that comes with it could be more intuitive, in my opinion. It's very easy to not fully understand how you tag things for billing and then you can quite easily run up a high bill without realizing it. The solution needs to be more intuitive around the tagging system, which enables the billing. Right now, I have a cloud architect that does that on our behalf and it isn't something that a business user could use because it still requires quite a lot of technical knowledge to do effectively."
"For now, there is no feature to protect against attack of the bad bots"
"I would like to be able to view a graphical deployment map in the user interface that will give me an overview of the configuration and help to determine whether I have missed any steps."
"It's a bit difficult to apply the right rules for the right security."
"When users choose the free service, there isn't great support available to them."
"The technical support does not respond to bugs in the coding of the product."
"The pricing model is complicated."
"The solution should have a Data Mask for the next release. It would be helpful for banking institutions as they would be able to hide the server number of the ATM machine in the CPU."
"AWS is not that costly by comparison. They are maybe close to $40 per month. I think it was between $29 or $39."
"It has a variable pricing scheme."
"We are kind of doing a POC comparison to see what works best. Pricing-wise, AWS is one of the most attractive ones. It is fairly cheap, and we like the pricing part. We're trying to see what makes more sense operation-wise, license-wise, and pricing-wise."
"It's quite affordable. It's in the middle."
