We performed a comparison between Arbor DDoS, Fortinet FortiDDoS, and Imperva DDoS based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Cloudflare, NETSCOUT, Akamai and others in Distributed Denial of Service (DDOS) Protection."Using standard BGP, NetFlow and SNMP ensure wide compatibility. There are also peering traffic reports that can help identify upstream peering opportunities. The ATLAS aggregation service allows us to contribute to the global DDoS data and benefit from overall trends."
"The product allows us to check real-time progress, including latency and network activities."
"Arbor has a global ranking in reliability and credibility. They are very unique and can respond to a very wide scope of threats from their global deployment."
"It's very flexible and we can easily deploy it to our network. It's very user-friendly. We can do everything via the web interface and troubleshoot easily from the CLI. It's not complicated."
"Reporting is quite good. There are several pages of reporting on DDoS attacks, and you can find all the details that you need."
"We have taken on the Arbor Cloud subscription, which is really useful because you secure yourself for anything beyond your current mitigation capacity. This is a really good feature of Arbor that is available."
"There are a number of valuable features in this product, like Cloud Signaling and Threat Intelligence feeds."
"With real-time packet capture features, you can easily and quickly response."
"The solution already has security profiles and it can protect from DDoS attacks and other kinds of attacks."
"This solution can protect Layer 3, Layer 4 and Layer 7 attacks of applications for us."
"The solution is very user-friendly and very easy to use."
"It allows me to see all the traffic on my network."
"We have researched them all, and it's a good solution all around."
"Among its key features: Detects and mitigates DDoS attacks at L3 to L7; negligible to zero false-positives; Generates and sends reports without the need for an expensive third-party solution."
"It is a user-friendly product in terms of monitoring and updating policies."
"I find the interface easy to use."
"Imperva DDoS is fairly stable, and its availability is quite high."
"Incapsula takes care of the CDN infrastructure and bandwidth volume, providing several enterprise "load balancing" features."
"We have peace of mind that nobody will use malware on us or try to hack our website."
"The solution has a very good interface."
"The solution is very good at intercepting traffic before it gets to our data centers."
"Imperva Incapsula has many valuable features. One, it protects the top 10 OWAS vulnerability, the open web application software platform, this is standard. Secondly, it protects against broken authentication. As well, it has remote execution of code."
"It's very pretty easy to onboard the URL."
"It fits our requirements, as well as our budget."
"The regional support here in African could improve, such as marketing and account managers."
"Implementation could be better."
"Sometimes it blocks legitimate traffic. If a legitimate user is trying to access the server continuously, the product suspects that this is a DoS traffic file. That is a case where it needs to improve. It needs machine-learning."
"The product could have end-to-end platform visibility."
"We need a SaaS model for the solution."
"The solution's IT support needs improvement."
"For troubleshooting problems, it's not so intuitive. It's not straightforward. This is the core of their kernel, so they need to improve it a little bit... In F5 I have full control of everything."
"Because we had some routers that were somewhat old, they were not integrated with Arbor. They did not support the NetFlow version that Arbor was running. That was a challenge. We had to upgrade the routers. Some backward-compatibility would be helpful."
"The tool needs to focus more on the area of application traffic management, where it currently has some shortcomings."
"I would like to see analytics, big data."
"The product’s pricing needs improvement."
"I find that there have been issues in the past year with the solution hanging. It freezes often."
"All the thresholds that need to be configured should be included in the default so that user will not forget or misconfigure."
"The primary area for improvement is the on-premises capacity limit, currently fixed at 10 GB."
"Alerts and reporting features must be improved."
"The web interface could be much better."
"The log analytics interface within Incapsula isn't really good. For example, if you have to get all logs from there, it's a very cumbersome process."
"Its price could be improved. It is quite expensive. It will be good if we could export the configuration. Currently, to control the configuration, we need to go to each website, which is not very convenient."
"We had an issue when securing the web applications for DDoS protection."
"Imperva should have more points of presence in Africa."
"Incapsula services also provides load balancing services for their service IP address environment. So far, with monitoring their services, the IP address was only changed once."
"Analytics in the area of risk need to be improved to supply more information to the users for creating better environments."
"I am not sure if this application has a policy where you can create your custom policy and run it as our firewall. We should have some ability to also create some custom policy, then run it as a firewall."
"We would like them to hire people in Sweden because it's quite hard when people are sitting in the UK or Belgium because some of the customers really want them to be local."
