Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It is an agnostic and transparent inline platform, which means that the maximum visibility of the symmetric and asymmetric traffic is available, even allowing bidirectional detection of the attack.""The most valuable feature of Corero is its ability to handle smaller attacks in terms of the amount of volume and time. You can handle almost 100 perfect of the attacks locally.""It is a good solution. Its vendor support is the most valuable. It is simple and works well if you have Juniper MX routers.""This is a hybrid solution.""The DDoS protection features are valuable.""SmartWall devices occupy only one-fourth of the width of a rack unit, making them very easy to install."

More F5 Shape Security Pros →

Cons
"The product must provide more Layer 7 capabilities.""It could use support in Spanish.""Lacks international presence.""The approach taken by Corero is to partner with other organizations in order to address volumetric attacks that cannot be handled by the hardware installed in the infrastructure. Corero does not have a solution for these attacks, so they are looking for partners to help them manage them. This approach is supplemented by local hardware, but the main focus is on the partnerships. It would be beneficial to have a more complete solution.""Juniper is known in our country, but it is not very popular. There is also not enough information about Corero. Our enterprise and financial sectors don't know about this solution. They need to provide more information and do more marketing for this solution in our country."

"The tool's price is high.""I want the solution's custom exclusion rules to be more granular."
