Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We use Cisco OpenDNS for upgrades, vulnerability remediation, configuration, and standardization.""The platform is highly stable."

More Cisco OpenDNS Pros →

"I use it as a WAF, which is basically a web firewall to monitor and block traffic to our web server.""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.""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.""It significantly eases the workload and streamlines the initial setup required to protect a website.""The most valuable part is the analytics and visualization.""The initial setup was very easy."

Cons
"The solution’s dashboard could be improved.""The platform's DNS database area needs improvement."

More Cisco OpenDNS Cons →

"It would greatly benefit customers if they implemented an online chat or messaging system for quicker assistance.""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.""Sucuri could provide help for specific security alerts in-line instead of requiring users to search for it in the help section.""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.""Confident score: Currently it does not have one and there are cases that most websites flagged are false-positives."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "We pay a yearly licensing fee for the solution."
  • "The product is expensive yet cost-effective. I rate the pricing an eight out of ten."
  • More Cisco OpenDNS Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "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 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.
    Top Answer: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 future releases, perhaps Sucuri could… more »
