Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"This solution is the best option for us because we use a lot of Microsoft products. So, it is easy for us to deploy or integrate any features or products.""I like the user interface, documentation, and support. Azure DDoS Protection is one of the most valuable solutions for any endpoint that is publicly reachable through the internet. It will automatically secure all your endpoints from third-party attacks, cyber attacks, or phishing attacks.""The most valuable feature of Azure DDoS Protection is that it performs well.""The most important feature is that the solution continuously monitors traffic by inbuilt rules to identify preconfigured attacks.""DDoS Protection is simple to deploy and integrates seamlessly with the Azure environment. Ease of deployment is a crucial feature for us.""Azure DDoS Protection offers superior protection against denial-of-service attacks."

"The initial setup was straightforward. Straight forward because the plugin can simply be installed and then it does its job. It's not complex, there is no learning curve. The online scan is simple, you put in the website address and the scan gives us a report on the browser itself. It's simple to use.""The initial setup was very easy.""The most valuable part is the analytics and visualization.""It significantly eases the workload and streamlines the initial setup required to protect a website.""Domain name scanning since it allows us to scan all our domain names and determine whether it has malware or if is reported as phishing.""I use it as a WAF, which is basically a web firewall to monitor and block traffic to our web server."

Cons
"Azure DDoS Protection could improve on the reporting.""The implementation of Azure DDoS Protection results in a decrease in our bandwidth capacity and should be optimized to reduce resource consumption.""The UI needs to be improved.""The visibility could be better. We would like to have better metrics, so we could see all the information in a central place.""The reporting aspect and dashboard management monitoring need improvement.""Sometimes, it is hard for our staff to keep track of changes (in the GUI) between different projects, because there are constant changes. As a result, it is hard to manage, recall, and see all the features because they have been moved from one place to another."

More Azure DDoS Protection Cons →

"I would rate this solution an eight out of ten. The reason is that we have found sometimes customers or Google saying that there is something wrong with the website but Sucuri says that the site is clean so we do have to look at the site manually which means that the Sucuri scan does not pick up anything and everything.""It would greatly benefit customers if they implemented an online chat or messaging system for quicker assistance.""Confident score: Currently it does not have one and there are cases that most websites flagged are false-positives.""Sucuri could provide help for specific security alerts in-line instead of requiring users to search for it in the help section.""In terms of improvement, the cost factor is always there.""The main improvement I would like to see is support for .NET applications. If they could include this feature, I would include more sites in the protection."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "You can test it for a certain period of time free of charge. You can have a free account. You can test it to compare its pros and cons with other products that you are testing."
  • "The pricing is quite high. It is a monthly subscription that costs about $2,000 per month, depending on the user sizes."
  • "The pricing is good but is not the best. It could be improved so that middle-sized organizations, such as startups, can benefit from it."

  • "I’d simply say it’s really worth it."
  • "Sucuri offers different plans, both the standard plan and an advanced plan. So there are different plans to choose from."
  • "The ROI has been very good. Because of the solution, I have a tax break. The site developers were not always experienced people. We used to pay more for cleaning up the site when it was infected. Now, we have peace of mind knowing that the solution will clean up the site and that we won't have to go through the unnecessary process of restoring it from a backup. The protection on the WAF and the measures for backups have also prevented our site from going down."
  • "It stands out as a more cost-effective option compared to other cloud-based security services like Cloudflare or JetPass."

    Top Answer:The initial setup was very easy.
    Top Answer:The pricing is very reasonable. Sucuri offer other features as an add-on, such as backup, but these have an additional cost. We host the sites ourselves, so I don't take it because it was redundant.
