We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros | |
Currently, we have fewer incidents with viruses. We improved our IQ operations and security using this solution. Our company's better after using Check Point. | All of our traffic has to pass through the appliance, so we can very quickly mitigate the attack. This is a very valuable feature. On top of that, it's not only volumetric attack protection that the solution offers, but also layer 7 attack protection as well. The DDoS protection that the solution provides is its most valuable feature. A flexible affordable solution for defense against DDos attacks. With the secure signature feature, the Radware DefensePro is a big assistance. It is a big help to our customers to improve their productivity and performance. The prompt response from the Radware team is definitely increasing in the new era. A valuable feature is the speed of signature updates. SSL-based mitigation from DDoS attacks is good from their side. They are capable of preventing SSL-based attacks with certifications and everything loaded onto them. It has not gone down for a quite long time. It's working fine. |
Cons | |
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. | The solution needs a bit more functionality. It would be good if DefensePro could have anti-bot functionalities in order to stop bots like web scrapers from getting onto our customers’ network. I had some trouble in the registration account prior to deployment, but it was fixed. They were not very fast or responsive, however. It took about one week to resolve the issue. It could incorporate more intelligence for reacting with web site visitors. Radware DefensePro requires a continuous learning process. Using this technology, we can improve our network. Based on the different attack mechanisms, we use Radware DefensePro to provide security for our clients' networks very effectively. If they would go to a cloud-based approach, that would give much more flexibility in terms of working with them. They should add artificial intelligence to the platform. It is currently missing the machine learning piece. I would like to see better implementation of a zero-day attack implementation strategy with self-mitigation. |
Pricing and Cost Advice | |
It's an expensive solution. It's one of the most expensive solutions in the world. It's cheaper than Palo Alto and Cisco but these are expensive solutions. Fortinet is cheaper. | It is sort of middle-of-the-road for this type of solution. The product's pricing is a good value. The cost for maintenance is cheaper because the majority of the deployments using the solution are in areas where cost of maintenance is also lower. Licensing of Radware is quite simple and straightforward, while Arbor DDos is a bit complicated. |
