Carlos Alam Hernandez Baruch - PeerSpot reviewer
Fast and secure deployments simplify operations for government and fintech clients
It is a fast and secure DNS. It is very easy to deploy, and my customers are happy with this tool. Additionally, the CDN performance in Mexico is excellent, providing fast service and tools. It offers reliability during high-traffic periods, ensuring no impact on the environment. It helps my clients avoid using on-premise boxes, simplifying operations as they only use the prices on Cloudflare.
Bernardo Murillo - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Pankaj Kaushik - PeerSpot reviewer
Advanced security features and top-notch support help manage threat detection and API sprawl efficiently
It's medium to difficult to use the Radware API Discovery due to its complexity. I have almost two and a half years of experience, so I'm familiar with this service, but recently, we have had new engineers rolled into our operations teams, and they are finding it challenging to understand from the start because of this complexity and the different approaches for hardening and best practices to ensure everything runs smoothly. So, for a new user, it's between medium to difficult based on the complexity. The implementation of Radware Cloud WAF Service is complex. However, this complexity is not solely attributed to the Cloud WAF, as we have experienced compatibility issues with different vendor devices that have hindered integration. While we can integrate it, we definitely face challenges if the engineer does not know exactly how to execute it. The command for the integrations and the procedure are somewhat complex, yet it's really helpful overall. We haven't encountered a single device suggesting that Radware is not compatible for integration. We wanted to integrate with some Cisco devices, but due to version gaps, Cisco TAC informed us that those devices are not compatible for integration with Radware.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"DDoS attacks target unprotected machines. Cloudflare detects and stops these attacks using internal systems. It identifies incoming DDoS attacks, issuing challenges or blocking them immediately."
"Smaller businesses have seen great ROI due to the low investment and strong performance."
"The features of Cloudflare were found to be more beneficial and led to the decision to utilize it over other options."
"It's a great product because it's scalable, has great coverage, and is mature with good defenses against DDoS attacks."
"I like Cloudflare's application gateway and DDoS protection."
"The solution offers the flexibility to control configuration rules."
"Even when there is a high load on our servers, Cloudflare is able to cache the data and serve it to users, ensuring they can still access the website."
"Cloudflare DNS is widely used, and it's good for websites. If we use Cloudflare DNS and update one record, it updates in their office instantly."
"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 pretty stable. I've never faced pressing issues or hanging issue."
"We get alerts if we have some malware."
"Importantly, we have not experienced any zero-day attacks because Radware Cloud offers protection against emerging threats."
"Radware Cloud WAF Service has reduced our false positive rate by more than 50% and is one of the best tools as we can easily block and reduce our alerts through IP blocking."
"The most valuable feature of Radware Cloud WAF Service is the visibility into attacks that are being cut off instantly."
"The solution offers good protection."
"Radware Cloud WAF Service has improved our efficiency by about 95%."
"What makes this a comprehensive offering from Radware is that it combines WAF, ADA, bot management, and API protection, which is not currently available from any other provider in the market."
"I like that Cloud WAF provides me with lots of information. All the events and all the possible attacks appear in front of you, and false positives appear through different channels."
"Radware Cloud WAF Service is really good for protecting against zero-day attacks as it protects our organization and businesses effectively."
 

Cons

"The product support needs to be accessible from more places, a wider area of coverage."
"There are some issues with the CDN services."
"It would be beneficial for us if Cloudflare could offer a scrubbing solution. This would involve taking a snapshot of my website and keeping it live during a DDoS attack, ensuring uninterrupted service for our users. DDoS attacks are typically short in duration, and having Cloudflare maintain the site's availability from its secure network would enhance the overall user experience. I would appreciate it if Cloudflare could consider implementing this feature. Many organizations already utilize similar capabilities in their CDN platforms, where a static snapshot of the web page is displayed during DDoS attacks. In terms of features, Cloudflare needs to enhance its resilience and stay more focused on adopting new technologies. For instance, solutions like F5 XC Box, Access Solution, and Distributed Cloud Solution have impressive features, and Cloudflare should strive to match and exceed those capabilities. There's a need for improvement in areas like AI-based DDoS attacks and Layer 7 WAF features. Cloudflare should prioritize enhancements in areas such as behavioral DDoS and protection against SQL injection attacks, considering the prevalent trend of public exposure to the internet for business reasons. Overall, Cloudflare needs to invest more in advancing its feature set."
"We are a product integrator and reseller, and we would like to have a better partner relationship, similar to a channel sales relationship. Sometimes we are on our own or get diverted by Cloudflare because they have direct sales, which competes with us and makes it difficult to build a relationship with this company since we want to be an MSP or a managed service provider for the solution."
"Support response time could be improved."
"Eventually, things go sideways and require fixes when it would have been easier to prevent the issue initially."
"It would be helpful if the solution could continue evolving to compete with the other solutions on the market."
"The pricing could be improved."
"The portal is a little slow."
"A small problem is from the support team. Sometimes they are a bit delayed."
"The solution needs to build better performance, specifically in the hardware resources."
"In Radware Cloud WAF Service, areas for improvement include behavioral and anomaly detection, where it could be better by reducing false positives. The"
"The area that can improve with Radware Cloud WAF Service is the speed at which they block geo-fencing and IP for P1 cases, which currently takes about an hour. If they could reduce that to ten to 15 minutes, it would be easier for us."
"I would like to see an improvement in the twenty-four-seven support service."
"They can work more on the documentation part. The documentation I found is quite vague."
"We received a notification where Radware Cloud WAF Service stopped working properly in our cloud environment without any prior notification."
"The integration part of the Radware Cloud WAF Service is complex. Being a security operation engineer or a SOC engineer, managing complex devices can prove challenging."
"The Cloud Portal has room for improvement."
"Management often asks for detailed reporting on attacks such as botnet and zero-day attacks, including the number of attacks within a month, week, or day. Improving dashboard capabilities to provide this information clearly for management is crucial."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are using the free tier of the solution."
"It's a premium model. You can start at zero and work your way up to the enterprise model, which has a very high pricing level."
"I believe their performance has improved, but I'd like to refrain from discussing the pricing aspect related to the cloud. The pricing, in my opinion, could be simplified, and I think they should consider reevaluating the pricing for support, as it can be quite high. At times, this cost can make it challenging to choose CARFAGuard or opt for the support."
"In terms of licensing costs, we don't pay for licensing for Cloudflare. We only establish communication, then for peering, Cloudflare takes care of the cross-connection in different data centers."
"The price of the solution is expensive."
"The pricing depends on the usage, but the cheapest would be around 5,000 USD a month."
"The price is reasonable."
"We don't have any issues with the price."
"Comodo cWatch’s first level, which has fewer features, costs $7."
"We are paying $20,000 annually for six licenses that provide basic WAF functionality."
"If you plan to deploy Cloud WAF, keep in mind that the product is priced based on the megabits of traffic that pass through and the number of transactions. You should get your requirements correct up front. The active attackers feed and CDN services cost extra, so you need to negotiate these features upfront."
"The pricing is fair; it's neither particularly cheap nor expensive."
"The price is a bulk average."
"I believe the prices are fair."
"I am not directly involved in pricing and setup cost discussions, but it seems that Radware offers a more cost-effective solution compared to F5. It is considered a good value for our budget."
"Radware Cloud WAF Service falls within a mid-range price bracket compared to other web application firewall solutions."
"The pricing is fair. We compared Radware to others using industry reviews and Radware is at the top right now."
