Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The stability of the product is good since I haven't had any problems with the solution.""I am impressed with the product's automatic bot mechanism. It also gives us the control to create our own custom bot rules."

More Imperva Bot Management Pros →

"I enjoy engaging in discussions with colleagues possessing unique expertise. I leverage the three platforms—Azure, Google, and AWS extensively. This allows me to offer diverse solutions to customers, commonly referred to as a multi-cloud approach.""It is a stable solution.""The most valuable feature of Windows Azure CDN is its effectiveness.""One of the tool's best features is its ability to handle edge cases. For instance, we encountered a situation where we needed to remove certain files from public access. The solution offered a purge feature that allowed us to remove these files. This feature ensured that the files were deleted from all edge servers. Subsequently, we were able to upload new versions of the files.""The UI is very intuitive.""We use the product for faster content delivery with low latency.""The fact that it just delivers what it is supposed to do is its most valuable feature...The initial setup is very straightforward.""One of the most valuable aspects is the capability to store extensive datasets and objects in the cloud, enabling their download through shared access signatures."

Cons
"The tool needs to include artificial intelligence and machine learning. It also needs to improve profiling.""Sometimes, it takes a bit of time for the technical staff of the solution to get back to our company with a resolution for our problems."

More Imperva Bot Management Cons →

"They should include configuration for cache rules.""The high price of Windows Azure CDN is an area of concern where improvements can be made.""I believe Windows Azure CDN can improve monitoring and measuring overall end-user performance. Providing monitoring tools or agents that can be integrated into our pages would be highly beneficial. Setting up a custom domain with Windows Azure CDN involves proving domain ownership, which can take some time. The process is relatively straightforward if your DNS or domain registrar is already integrated with Microsoft. However, the verification process may be more time-consuming if you use a different service provider.""We have experienced issues with switch connectivity.""I aim to enhance the reporting.""The solution’s pricing could be improved.""The response time of the support team must be improved.""Exploring shared access solutions with cloud accounts would be a beneficial choice."

    Overview
    Distil Networks is the first easy and accurate way to identify and police malicious website traffic, blocking 99.9% of bad bots without impacting legitimate users. Only 41% of web traffic originates from humans, so it’s imperative to be able to detect and block automated attacks. Bots are the key culprits behind web scraping, online fraud, web application security breaches, content spam, digital ad fraud, and downtime. Distil Networks is purpose built to defeat bad bots that circumvent traditional web application defenses like Web Application Firewalls (WAFs). Distil makes your web applications more secure with API security, real-time threat intelligence, a 24/7 security operations center, and complete visibility and control over human, good bot, and bad bot traffic.
    Windows Azure Content Delivery Network (CDN) caches static web content at strategically placed locations to provide maximum throughput for delivering content to users. The CDN offers developers a global solution for delivering high-bandwidth content by caching the content at physical nodes across the world.
