Pros
"The stability of the product is good since I haven't had any problems with the solution.""I am impressed with the product's automatic bot mechanism. It also gives us the control to create our own custom bot rules."

More Imperva Bot Management Pros →

"I like how Bot Manager automatically detects when a suspicious user attempts to download content from your website.""It's very good at categorizing the different types of bots, whether they're malicious or good. Bot is a very generic term. It could be good, it could be bad. Quite a lot of legitimate businesses are using bot-type services to just scrape the internet for information.""The solution provides a rating of the sophistication of the bot attack.""Bot Manager is an excellent tool for analyzing traffic to detect suspicious patterns. It uses artificial intelligence to identify malicious behavior.""Bot Manager's behavioral modeling and intelligence help us distinguish between harmless and malicious bots.""The most valuable feature is the bot management itself and the way it has stopped bots from scraping our site, with its AI mechanism. Its ability to detect and mitigate bots is really good."

Cons
"Sometimes, it takes a bit of time for the technical staff of the solution to get back to our company with a resolution for our problems.""The tool needs to include artificial intelligence and machine learning. It also needs to improve profiling."

More Imperva Bot Management Cons →

"It would be beneficial to have a link from the WAF to the Bot Manager portal available so we do not have to log in again.""I would like more ability to configure custom rules. Currently, I need to open a ticket with support to request a specific rule that isn't available in the console. In some cases, I don't have visibility into the logs or they are too complicated to analyze.""It would be good to have more integrations. It's very hard to get data in and out of their portal. It doesn't have any integrations with any of our tools, such as our SIEM tool. It only depends on emails. Having that tied into the warehouse, SIEM, and maybe our on-call tools would be very helpful because it would just give us a holistic picture of everything.""We're missing links to their modules for installation and configuration. They have most of them available already, but there were situations for mobile applications that, when they released a new version, were not stable. We had to ask them to send a link by email, and that could be made accessible in the portal.""Radware Bot Manager is a little costly but not too expensive. It's in the middle.""Bot Manager is doing its job, but I think the behavioral modeling could be improved by adding fingerprinting and automation. Remediation should be automated so that it doesn't require any intervention by the user."
