Alerts organizations if any malware is detected and removes it quickly
The solution allows me to change my logo. It gives me a white-label portal because I am a partner. OWASP has been the most effective in malware prevention. It can detect if the headers are okay and do FTP scans. We get alerts if we have some malware. It is removed very quickly.
IshtiaqKhalil - PeerSpot reviewer
Information Security Engineer at BOK
Displays flexible, user-friendly interface with minor licensing challenges
The product could be improved with a more intuitive interface for complex configurations and more advanced analytics. Additionally, enhanced security features, like a more robust Web Application Firewall, and stronger APIs for better automation would be beneficial. Overall, the main areas for improvement are in strengthening the advanced features to better meet the demands of large-scale enterprise environments. key features for the next release should focus on three areas. First, an enhanced, next-generation security suite with a more powerful Web Application Firewall (WAF) and integrated bot protection. Second, more advanced and customizable analytics dashboards to provide deeper insights into application performance. Finally, greater support for modern, cloud-native environments, including better APIs for automation and seamless hybrid-cloud traffic management

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The FIM feature, the information in the new management system, and their support are the most valuable features. The scanned results are quite fast as compared to other platforms compared to scanning timing. It takes about a minute or two minutes. Also, the results of the Comodo scan results are in detail."
"The solution is very good and I feel more secure under this than I did under Symantec or McAfee."
"They took my website under their surveillance, scanned the website for infection, detected the incident, and removed it in a jiff."
"We get alerts if we have some malware."
"My customers see ROI in the sense that their whole environment is secure."
"The solution is pretty stable. I've never faced pressing issues or hanging issue."
"This is a very competitive solution - they have a very solid product and it's cheaper than other solutions."
"With Kemp, I have been able to implement a global DNS load balancer between two sites for internal and external users with our existing Exchange DAG setup, making DR and BCP much easier to manage and giving me load balancing, SSL offloading, and Edge Security Packages all in one service that is much easier to manage from a day to day and single pane of glass perspective."
"Having a reverse proxy is a secure way to protect access to inside services like Microsoft Exchange."
"The most valuable feature that I found is the load balancing feature, it is the core function of the product."
"The most beneficial function of using the ADC is to ensure this resiliency."
"We ran a single (non-redundant) LoadMaster appliance in our VMware environment for close to five years with zero outages caused by it, so I am very impressed with the stability of KEMP's devices."
"Kemp LoadMaster is the easiest server maintenance application that gives you a high-performance virtual Load Balancer and a Reverse Proxy."
"I have not seen a product that is as simple to use as this."
 

Cons

"The solution needs to build better performance, specifically in the hardware resources."
"Better CDN could be a great thing since this is the best that any website owners would be interested in for protecting their website."
"A small problem is from the support team. Sometimes they are a bit delayed."
"The portal is a little slow."
"There are many features that are missing or poorly implemented and things that you simply cannot do."
"I really don't like the way the logs are presented in the software."
"In my opinion, the layer seven loads balancing that we're mainly using for web servers, doesn't seem to pick up when there are issues at the application level."
"To make it a perfect ten out of ten it would need better connection logging. If there is an active connection, that there is better logging. It should also have better management monitoring tools."
"SNMP and/or RESTCONF management, in order to collect many counters for plotting in a central application, needs to be improved."
"If there is one thing I would change is to have the license file not be coupled with the MAC address of the device."
"The configuration of the basic services is pretty straight forward but for more complex solutions, there needs to be better documentation or knowledge base articles."
"The cost of the GEO upgrade is not cost-prohibitive but it's something that would be a nice add-in, out of the box."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Comodo cWatch’s first level, which has fewer features, costs $7."
"Nowadays, going with the virtual appliance is the easiest way and the cost is reasonable."
"The Kemp LoadMaster is a tremendous value."
"It has a great price for the solution they offer."
"KEMP gives away free trials for 30 days. This can be stretched if you want. During the test, you will have access to KEMP support.​"
"Pricing for the perpetual licensing was fair to us for the features and ease of use we received."
"Setup is easy, the cost is affordable, and the licensing is quick and simple."
"The price of the solution is cheap."
"​I have control on the licensing and all the prices since I work for a partner.​"
