Pros
"Its initial setup process is straightforward.""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.""The product helps our organization to access sites located in different regions quickly.""Compute@Edge features are valuable to me.""Rate limiting is a good feature that protects from volumetric attacks."

"The three most valuable features that I noticed are the geo-localization of the user, the IP reputation, and the compartmental analysis."

More R&S Web Application Firewall (DenyAll) Pros →

Cons
"The product should provide improved bot detection and management.""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.""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.""Fastly's customer service area needs improvement."

"The area that should be improved is licensing."
