We performed a comparison between Check Point DDoS Protector and Imperva DDoS based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."The is a really low level of the false-positive alerts (when the clean traffic is marked as DDoS) due to some advanced techniques used by Check Point under the hood."
"As our business continues to grow, we can grow this product simultaneously."
"Check Point detects and automatically mitigates attacks, which helps our organization protect our infrastructure."
"One of its most outstanding functions is the zero-day DDOS."
"It can be deployed as a hardware appliance, virtual appliance, or as a cloud service."
"Check Point DDoS Protector is a product that uses machine learning and behavior analysis."
"It uses several layers of security."
"This product uses auto-learning and behavioral analysis to establish baselines for legitimate traffic, and automatically detects and blocks traffic behavior that does not conform."
"Simplifies putting everything in code."
"We have peace of mind that nobody will use malware on us or try to hack our website."
"Provides Anti-DDoS protection, as well as other protections like SQL injection, Cross-Site Scripting, and antiscanner. These types of protection are valuable to the business due to the daily attacks on our portals, and that often cannot be seen without a tool like this."
"The solution's most valuable aspect is that it is easy to configure."
"There is no need to have an appliance in house for the services because it is on the cloud."
"The solution has a very good interface."
"The most valuable features for us are the DDoS and Bot."
"The complete solution is valuable for everything it delivers and the protection it offers."
"I would like applications for Android and IOS where we can follow the events, and, if necessary, make changes."
"Monitoring and reporting are the things that can be introduced in the future."
"Check Point DDoS Protector does not provide the ability to upload data for the blacklist/whitelist in bulk, which is one of the big points that need to be improved to facilitate configurations."
"The solution should greatly improve its interface."
"It is an expensive tool for some companies."
"Check Point should develop a DDoS solution because they don't have one and we need to use another solution, in our case, Imperva. This is a problem because we need to have two firewalls. We would like to only have one solution because it would improve the management, we would have fewer incidents, and we wouldn't need to talk to more than one person for support."
"It does not provide the capability to upload data for blacklisting/whitelisting in bulk."
"For a long time, there was no software version of R80.10 available for the Check Point DDoS Protector software appliances, and we had to stay on the quite outdated R77.30 version."
"The product could use a broader scope in the area of policies."
"It's quite expensive."
"The weakest point of Imperva is their first level of support, which should be improved. They should also improve the access and security logs viewing directly on the portal. I would like to see better access and security logs through the portal and not only through a SIM solution. Currently, if you want to explore your access and security logs from Imperva, you need a SIM tool or a SIM infrastructure on your side to do it. You can't do it manually or directly through the portal, which is a big problem for us. I had a call yesterday with Imperva for the roadmap, and I just told them this. They agreed that this is an improvement point from their side."
"The log analytics interface within Incapsula isn't really good. For example, if you have to get all logs from there, it's a very cumbersome process."
"I miss being able to integrate the dashboard with other BI tools we are using. We have to export and import data to be able to present it, and doing so is a lot of work."
"Certificate management could be improved."
"It would be beneficial to include vulnerability management in the solution, similar to what they have for their on-premise solution."
"Imperva DDoS does not provide version control."
