Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The ability to track activity including the SQL statements is definitely valuable. I really like how the database is laid out. It's straightforward. I can query the back-end tables. I've made a few of my own email alerts based on the data and the tables. It's accessible.""The tool can track logins and login failures. I made my own alert so that if there is a certain number of login failures for a server, it emails me. That is really useful. If I want logins to automatically lock out after a certain number of failed attempts, I can know when that happens.""The initial setup was straightforward."

"The most valuable features of Imperva SecureSphere Database Security are the user-friendliness, easy-to-use interface compared to competitors, database operations do not need a specialist, and simple to manage for our security team. Additionally, the solution can show all the databases and the level of sensitivity. It can show what is more sensitive or less sensitive.""The tool's pricing is flexible and affordable for small and medium enterprises.""There are three major main use cases of this solution. The first one is to fulfill compliance regulations. Customers—especially the banks, health sector, and manufacturing—need to comply with the regulations in different countries. They have to fulfill compliance regulations around the privacy of data. In order to fulfill those requirements, they're using Imperva. It helps them to fulfill these requirements, and they are not fined by the regulators. That is the first use case why people buy Imperva.""The most valuable features of Imperva SecureSphere Database Security are vulnerability assessment, enrichment security policy, and security""The product’s most valuable feature is real-time highlights.""This solution has helped secure our Internet-based services, protecting us against DoS and other types of web-based attacks.""The technical support for Imperva is super, super, super.""The integration with CounterBreach is great."

"This solution helps our clients to monitor their database use, and detect violations of the policy.""Transfer and vulnerability scanning are the most valuable features of this product.""The most valuable feature of the solution is that you can have a good view which is provided with a proper division of all your databases, which you can see in Trustwave DbProtect."

Cons
"What would really a good thing is if you could refer to an external list or table for filtering on, say, certain applications, IP addresses, or host names; or perhaps even combinations of host name and application name.""There is an agent that collects the data on SQL Server. Sometimes it will stop collecting. I'm not exactly sure what's happening but I have to go in and manually restart the agent. It would be nice if the central collection server could send a request to the agent to restart.""I submitted a ticket (last year) about archiving/grooming of old records because the GUI functionality was not working. Per their recommendation, I ended up using a command line to do it.""The set up is kind of clunky, in my opinion. It's not really intuitive. If they had either a smoother install or better instructions, that would be nice.""Its filtration and navigation are not the best."

More IDERA SQL Compliance Manager Cons →

"Improvements can be made in data enrichment and enhancing the GUI (Graphical User Interface) for a better user experience.""Database security from the access management perspective could be better.""Once we read the activity logs on the platform, we cannot open them anywhere else as they are stored in a proprietary format.""I would like to see improvement in the integration part of the tool. This should be an easy process.""Performance can be slow under heavy loads, but this should be adjusted by scaling.""The firewall features are not very strong and should be improved.""I would like to see integration such that there is support for different kinds of environments, such as on-premises versus cloud.""It is quite expensive. I would prefer a lower price."

More Imperva SecureSphere Database Security Cons →

"We have not been able to integrate this product with a lot of standard incident response solutions, so an open API would help in this regard.""I have seen that the tool's installation phase has some problems regarding the versions, specifically the version of SQL.""The product does not have encryption or data masking."

    Overview

    SQL Compliance Manager helps database administrators to monitor, audit, and alert on SQL Server user activity and data changes. Unlike its competition, it provides quick configuration of audit settings, a broad list of regulatory guideline templates for audit settings and reports, before and after data values for both regulatory compliance and forensic data investigations, differentiation of data access and between regular and privileged users and applications, easy specification of and reporting on sensitive data columns access and changes, and extensive customization of audit settings for databases and servers.

    Imperva SecureSphere Database Security:

    • Audits all access to sensitive data.
    • Alerts or blocks database attacks and unauthorized activities, in real time.
    • Detects and virtually patches database vulnerabilities.
    • Identifies excessive user rights and dormant users, and enables a complete rights review cycle.
    • Accelerates incident response and forensics investigations with advanced analytics.

    Trustwave DbProtect is a security platform designed for consistent monitoring and management of enterprise databases within the data center.

    Built on a centrally managed and distributed architecture, DbProtect uncovers database weaknesses. This includes configuration mistakes, identification and access control issues, missing patches, or any toxic combination of settings that could lead to escalation of privileges attacks, data leakage, denial-of-service (DoS), or unauthorized modification of data held within data stores – both relational databases and big data stores.
