Centralized security policies have streamlined audits and ensure consistent protection by default
One area for improvement is the reporting and customization option. The compliance reports are helpful, but having more granular insights or export options would make it even easier to use during audits. Also, support for more third-party integration could improve flexibility. Another improvement I need to see is a smoother setup experience. Some of the initial configuration steps, especially around the organization and permissions, can feel complex. A more guided setup or clear UI explanation would make it easier for teams to adopt quickly. One more improvement would be better alerting options. Right now, we mostly rely on AWS Security Hub or CloudWatch for detailed alerts. Having more built-in, real-time notification directly from AWS Firewall Manager would make it easier to monitor policy violations without extra setup.
Vulnerability control saves audit costs and reduces expenses for organizations
Tufin Orchestration Suite is not commonly used in Thailand due to a lack of local support, and many customers are switching to AlgoSec or other vendors. The analytics features of Tufin Orchestration Suite are challenging to use and require technical expertise, which is a concern as there is not much knowledge in this field in Thailand. The issue of technical knowledge, especially regarding English language proficiency, is significant for government and some companies, making Tufin Orchestration Suite harder to use.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The product is highly reliable."
"After implementing AWS Firewall Manager, we reduced our manual security configuration effort by around sixty to seventy percent as the policies are now centralized, managed, and automatically enforced."
"Once this solution is set up, we hardly have to touch it."
"AWS Firewall Manager isn't a separate solution when you create the virtual private cloud (VPC), so you can control the traffic through that security group."
"My advice for anybody who is considering the AWS Firewall Manager is that it is pretty simple to set up and easy to use."
"The most valuable feature is scaling, which allows you to deploy one configuration and scan and deploy it across the network. The automated policy application feature also streamlines security operations."
"Overall, it improved our security posture and made audits much easier."
"We work with compliance monitoring in the product, which is helpful for identifying framework-based misconfigurations, as it can tell you where to deploy firewall policies based on the frameworks."
"The firewall remediation and compliance pieces are the most valuable features."
"We compared Tufin to AlgoSec, and one of the reasons we picked Tufin was the responsiveness of the people we were working with; they understood the company and our relationship, and we felt that it would be easier to have the ear of the company if we needed customization."
"We really appreciate the change manager; it's one of the most valuable aspects of the solution."
"We find it to be flexible. If we have a change that needs to be done, it will go ahead and do it for all our devices, regardless of the manufacturer that we have associated with it."
"I use the solution daily and can see it anytime that I want, and I find it invaluable in day-to-day management of firewall policy and policy changes."
"It gives our firewall administrators visibility into the total infrastructure."
"Buy Tufin because it works! I love the product."
"It offers automation capabilities that are very helpful, especially for network security orchestration and applying policies."
 

Cons

"Enabling and configuring the logging is not that straightforward."
"It needs to be more employee-friendly, and the security management could be more efficient."
"The areas of improvement are definitely platform resiliency, as we have seen outages on the AWS backbone, and whenever there is an outage on the AWS backbone, it impacts all the services hosted on that region, so we expect regional resiliency."
"For AWS WAF, we have seen cases where it allowed suspicious HTTPS headers even if they carried malicious payloads."
"One area for improvement is the reporting and customization option."
"This solution is suitable for a small-scale enterprise and may not scale up to a very high volume of traffic or a large number of servers."
"AWS Firewall Manager could be improved with more granular policy customization for better visibility through enhanced dashboards and reporting."
"AWS Firewall Manager should be open to manage other third-party appliances as well."
"I think they can improve the speed, although our speed issues might not be related to Tufin."
"The two main negative points with Tufin Orca are the absence of full support and that accommodation of files and tools is not provided in a good way."
"More API integration with third-party platforms is something that we would definitely like to see in upcoming releases."
"Technical support for this solution needs improvement."
"We had some issues because of our unique configuration."
"It's a bit clunky, but that may be because of different environments, and it is struggling to get the information."
"We want to have the ability for a ticket requester to add somebody, or to give somebody view rights to their ticket."
"The product that we have deployed for our main process gets bogged down in terms of its response. Maybe, we need to deploy a slightly smaller box. Eventually, we need to discuss this with Tufin is to see if we can move over to some sort of VM environment where we can add more processing power to it."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing is on a pay-as-you-go basis and we are billed monthly."
"From what I've heard from my colleagues, it appears that the pricing is competitive, which influenced our decision to choose this option."
"It is a cost-efficient product."
"If you don't buy their premium support, their technical support is not great and you can only call during daytime hours. So, we ended up purchasing their premium support."
"We did look at less expensive solutions than Tufin, but being a corporation, this solution made sense."
"Tufin and AlgoSec were pretty much in the competitive price range, but this one provided us better integration into the Check Point environment."
"We've seen a decrease of about 50 percent in the overall time it takes to complete a firewall change."
"Pricing played a big part here... The customer had evaluated other products but, due to price as well as support, they chose Tufin."
"I believe our cost is more than $100,000 per year."
"The solution has helped us to reduce the time it takes to make changes. With Tufin, it takes ten to 15 minutes. Before, it was 30 minutes or more."
"Tufin makes things a little easier. It lessens the amount of manual work which we have to do. It has a lot of benefits in terms of revenues, profits, employee costs, and operational costs. We have already seen return on investment."
