Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The DDoS protection features are valuable.""It is a good solution. Its vendor support is the most valuable. It is simple and works well if you have Juniper MX routers.""This is a hybrid solution.""It is an agnostic and transparent inline platform, which means that the maximum visibility of the symmetric and asymmetric traffic is available, even allowing bidirectional detection of the attack.""SmartWall devices occupy only one-fourth of the width of a rack unit, making them very easy to install.""The most valuable feature of Corero is its ability to handle smaller attacks in terms of the amount of volume and time. You can handle almost 100 perfect of the attacks locally."

"Support is good; the product works as advertised. We have a Slack connection with them. So we can basically ask for help, live, engage, and ring when they respond. Very quickly.""Fastly uses configuration versioning, where you can deploy a new version in less than one minute.""Its initial setup process is straightforward.""Rate limiting is a good feature that protects from volumetric attacks.""The product helps our organization to access sites located in different regions quickly.""Compute@Edge features are valuable to me."

Cons
"The product must provide more Layer 7 capabilities.""Lacks international presence.""Juniper is known in our country, but it is not very popular. There is also not enough information about Corero. Our enterprise and financial sectors don't know about this solution. They need to provide more information and do more marketing for this solution in our country.""The approach taken by Corero is to partner with other organizations in order to address volumetric attacks that cannot be handled by the hardware installed in the infrastructure. Corero does not have a solution for these attacks, so they are looking for partners to help them manage them. This approach is supplemented by local hardware, but the main focus is on the partnerships. It would be beneficial to have a more complete solution.""It could use support in Spanish."

More Corero Cons →

"Support is not that great.""It is missing a "staging" platform to deploy a test configuration with all of the real settings, which would allow us to properly test before putting it into production.""The product should provide improved bot detection and management.""Fastly's customer service area needs improvement.""Stronger analytics would be helpful, like showing configurations that haven't served a certain amount of traffic in a while. With many properties, things can get lost track of - duplicates or unused configurations not properly decommissioned.""The solution's pricing could be better."
