Cons
"Sometimes, support tickets don't get addressed quickly.""The only disadvantage of Imperva is that it is a pretty costly solution.""One potential improvement for Imperva is enhancing its alert system.""They recently separated the WAF and the DAM management gateways in order for each of these to be managed from different areas, so I believe it now requires additional investments for what was previously a single complete solution.""Imperva Web Application Firewall is very expensive.""The signature updates could be faster. Sometimes we have to upload signatures to the Imperva portal for checking and analysis before we can use them.""It would be helpful to have a "recommended deployment", or even a list of basic features that should either be used or turned on by default.""Imperva Web Application Firewall is a good system, but we found that the visibility of the diverse-path server, e.g. where the traffic is coming from, the different IPs, etc., needs improvement."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Make sure you understand the way that Imperva charges. It's very affordable. However, I would like to see a package with the Virtual Patching included. You get to do patching separately."
  • "Everybody complains about the price of this solution."
  • "The cost of this solution depends on the platform."
  • "The price of this solution is a little bit high compared to competitors."
  • "There are some licenses that you have to buy to use some features. Its price could be better. Price is always important because, at the end of the day, customers have a budget. If you can meet the budget, you can sell, and if you don't, you cannot sell."
  • "There is a license for this solution and we purchase the license annually with no additional fees."
  • "There are a couple of different licensing models."
  • "The price of Imperva Web Application Firewalls is expensive compared to others."
