Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The DDoS protection features are valuable.""SmartWall devices occupy only one-fourth of the width of a rack unit, making them very easy to install.""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.""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."

"Technologically simple and effective.""It has not gone down for a quite long time. It's working fine.""The product is very effective and performs well on devices.""All of our traffic has to pass through the appliance, so we can very quickly mitigate the attack. This is a very valuable feature. On top of that, it's not only volumetric attack protection that the solution offers, but also layer 7 attack protection as well.""The important features include automated protection and defense against many attacks, it's important that our networks are protected in the Radware cloud.""The reporting is very good and provides us with a comprehensive description of where attacks are emanating from.""This solution is extremely scalable and has the highest level throughput (100G) which complies with Telco deployment.""Radware DefensePro is one of the best solutions for on-premise protection."

Cons
"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.""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 product must provide more Layer 7 capabilities.""It could use support in Spanish."

More Corero Cons →

"If they would go to a cloud-based approach, that would give much more flexibility in terms of working with them.""There needs to be more reporting.""I would like to see more focus on layer seven protection.""It would be ideal if they could expand protocol support to cover emerging communication standards and ensure comprehensive protection against diverse attack vectors.""Right now, we have DefensePro 6. The only complaint I have is that SSL inspection, when activated, consumes a lot of resources on the machine. We are currently reviewing a possible change to DefensePro X, the new version, which has a separate module with its processors.""The dashboard could be updated.""They should add artificial intelligence to the platform. It is currently missing the machine learning piece.""We would like to have seven-layer functionality."
