Find out in this report how the two Web Application Firewall (WAF) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."One main feature we are very happy about is file security and upload functionality."
"Fortinet is a great SD-WAN player when it comes to security capabilities."
"It offers some feedback and suggestions that guide our system development while helping our vendors to update their applications and fix any issues or bugs."
"The most valuable feature is the web application firewall (WAF)."
"One of the big advantages of using Fortinet FortiWeb is all the Fortinet family solutions use the same user interface and logic. This makes it easy to use, configure, manage, and understand if you have used one of their solutions before or are wanting to implement other Fortinet solutions in the future. Additionally, all Fortinet solutions can be managed with one application called FortiManager."
"The solution is easy to configure and deploy."
"The most valuable features are support and security."
"L-7 protection makes possible to protect legacy/not up-to-date servers/applications without changing the application code."
"From a financial point of view, we no longer need to appropriate more horsepower to our backend web servers constantly to service these requests because Cloud WAF is preventing malicious bots from accessing our web page. It reduced the load on our backend."
"Geo-blocking is one of the most valuable features we use the most; most of our users are in North, Central, and South America, so we use geo-blocking to block access from other countries."
"One of the most valuable features we have found in the solution is protection against attacks from botnet networks and the requests that these remote networks can generate that are blocked from our servers. That frees us from having to deal with that traffic."
"The isolation feature is the most important one because everything is going directly to Radware first and then it goes into our system. What we get is the filtered version of everything that would otherwise come directly to us."
"Radware Cloud WAF Service has several valuable features, with good support and a user-friendly GUI."
"What makes this a comprehensive offering from Radware is that it combines WAF, ADA, bot management, and API protection, which is not currently available from any other provider in the market."
"The solution requires very little maintenance; we install it, it works without any problems, is reliable, and we can almost forget about it."
"I particularly appreciate the low administrative burden of this solution, as well as the excellent monitoring tools."
"We would like the interface to be easier to use and more user-friendly. The interface needs to be enhanced."
"The solution could offer more integration opportunities."
"The GUI could be better. It's limited."
"They could improve their support a little bit for faster response time."
"Their support needs improvement."
"I would like to see the Application Delivery Control (ADC) and Web Application Firewall (WAF) combined in one device."
"In my experience, Fortinet FortiWeb could improve the intelligent features to acknowledge whether any threat or incident that's running happened. Then give us the ability to escalate it to layer 2 or layer 3 in the network operations."
"It costs too much."
"The connection between the front and back ends could be improved."
"If we want to publish services to a limited number of providers and we only want those providers to connect, we need to forward those requests to the Radware support team and they apply them, but it takes some time."
"We've had some issues with putting certificates in."
"Radware does not have much online training available to help customers get the most out of this solution."
"The lower-level technical team at Radware could improve their approach to problem-solving as they sometimes are very slow."
"Radware Cloud WAF Service has limited integrations, and I would like to see it integrate with our use of Azure DevOps."
"The integration part could be better."
"There is a lot more that is expected from Radware's automated analytics for looking at events. There needs to be more context of where protection is required these days."
