Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The audit feature is great. It is totally encrypted.""The performance of the solution is good.""The technical support for Imperva is super, super, super.""There are three major main use cases of this solution. The first one is to fulfill compliance regulations. Customers—especially the banks, health sector, and manufacturing—need to comply with the regulations in different countries. They have to fulfill compliance regulations around the privacy of data. In order to fulfill those requirements, they're using Imperva. It helps them to fulfill these requirements, and they are not fined by the regulators. That is the first use case why people buy Imperva.""The solution is very stable.""The most valuable feature is the automatic reports on new databases, which gives us up-to-date inventory management.""The integration with CounterBreach is great.""It has a very user-friendly interface that's very detailed."

"I use it as a WAF, which is basically a web firewall to monitor and block traffic to our web server.""The most valuable part is the analytics and visualization.""The initial setup was straightforward. Straight forward because the plugin can simply be installed and then it does its job. It's not complex, there is no learning curve. The online scan is simple, you put in the website address and the scan gives us a report on the browser itself. It's simple to use.""Domain name scanning since it allows us to scan all our domain names and determine whether it has malware or if is reported as phishing.""It significantly eases the workload and streamlines the initial setup required to protect a website.""The initial setup was very easy."

Cons
"It is very expensive. Its price can be better.""The GUI for this solution could use some improvement.""I have worked with IBM before, and I prefer its ease of deployment and management. Imperva SecureSphere Database Security has tricky deployment, whereas IBM's deployment is straightforward because of the UI.""It would be better to update the solution by using a GUI that guides me, rather than through a CLI.""The solution is expensive.""They can maybe look at its pricing model. Its pricing could be cheaper for the African countries or developing economies.""The firewall features are not very strong and should be improved.""I would like to see integration such that there is support for different kinds of environments, such as on-premises versus cloud."

More Imperva SecureSphere Database Security Cons →

"I would rate this solution an eight out of ten. The reason is that we have found sometimes customers or Google saying that there is something wrong with the website but Sucuri says that the site is clean so we do have to look at the site manually which means that the Sucuri scan does not pick up anything and everything.""It would greatly benefit customers if they implemented an online chat or messaging system for quicker assistance.""Confident score: Currently it does not have one and there are cases that most websites flagged are false-positives.""Sucuri could provide help for specific security alerts in-line instead of requiring users to search for it in the help section.""The main improvement I would like to see is support for .NET applications. If they could include this feature, I would include more sites in the protection.""In terms of improvement, the cost factor is always there."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The cost of support for this solution is very expensive."
  • "Licensing fees are on a yearly basis, and it is a good value for the money."
  • "There is an annual licensing fee for upgrading the device."
  • "Pricing is low and scalable to add features and volume."
  • "The pricing over-all depends on the entry level. For example, if support and maintenance are about $20,000 - $25,000, the initial cost can be five times more. It is less expensive for the company to maintain the client than to make the deployment."
  • "We have all the licenses, which we pay for annually. The price is a little high, but the product is good."
  • "They have introduced new price models, which makes the product more affordable now."
  • "The price is very high but compared to the price of the overall solution, then I think it's a good deal because the solution itself is great."

  • "I’d simply say it’s really worth it."
  • "Sucuri offers different plans, both the standard plan and an advanced plan. So there are different plans to choose from."
  • "The ROI has been very good. Because of the solution, I have a tax break. The site developers were not always experienced people. We used to pay more for cleaning up the site when it was infected. Now, we have peace of mind knowing that the solution will clean up the site and that we won't have to go through the unnecessary process of restoring it from a backup. The protection on the WAF and the measures for backups have also prevented our site from going down."
  • "It stands out as a more cost-effective option compared to other cloud-based security services like Cloudflare or JetPass."

    Top Answer:The tool's pricing is flexible and affordable for small and medium enterprises.
    Top Answer:The initial setup was very easy.
    Top Answer:The pricing is very reasonable. Sucuri offer other features as an add-on, such as backup, but these have an additional cost. We host the sites ourselves, so I don't take it because it was redundant.
