We performed a comparison between Imperva DDoS and Radware Alteon based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Web Application Firewall (WAF) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."There are quite a few useful Imperva Incapsula features. For example, one of them is the reports. The graphics are very good and it's easy to configure. The whole process is very fast and reliable too. They have good tech support as well."
"Imperva DDoS is fairly stable, and its availability is quite high."
"We use Imperva DDoS to stop DDoS attacks and reduce the amount of unwanted queries against web services or web scraping."
"The dashboard is good and user-friendly."
"The most valuable features for us are the DDoS and Bot."
"It is an effective threat mitigation tool."
"The most valuable features are DDoS protection."
"It fits our requirements, as well as our budget."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its stability. During the time that I have been using it, it has not undergone a service failure... And with the integrated application protection, we have not suffered from attacks anymore."
"The device blocks threats and allows legitimate users to work correctly."
"The product offers high availability."
"It saves us a lot of work in terms of management since it has tasks already defined automatically. That enables us to better administer our services. It is very dynamic and easy to administer."
"Security is one of the most valuable features that I like. It is easy to use and easy to configure."
"Radware has been characterized by being extremely robust. This gives us the confidence to offer our users a continuous service."
"The most valuable aspect is the ability to customize the types of load-balancing scenarios needed for customized applications. Some of the load balancers on the market today are strictly out-of-hand load balancers for SSL or HTTP. Radware Alteon is most useful for customizing in-house applications based on ports and protocols."
"The solution has been very stable."
"We would like them to hire people in Sweden because it's quite hard when people are sitting in the UK or Belgium because some of the customers really want them to be local."
"Imperva DDoS does not provide version control."
"The cost could be lower; our end clients need to have a high budget to purchase this solution."
"There’s nothing that’s missing in terms of features."
"We had an issue when securing the web applications for DDoS protection."
"Incapsula services also provides load balancing services for their service IP address environment. So far, with monitoring their services, the IP address was only changed once."
"I miss being able to integrate the dashboard with other BI tools we are using. We have to export and import data to be able to present it, and doing so is a lot of work."
"Its price could be improved. It is quite expensive. It will be good if we could export the configuration. Currently, to control the configuration, we need to go to each website, which is not very convenient."
"The reverse proxy piece is a little bit complicated. If the reverse proxy were easier to implement, that would help."
"A feature that I would like to see included in the next version might be a better analysis when working with crypt issues. Right now, it is very manual; you load it into Alteon and it runs. It would be interesting to see a more dynamic process."
"Radware Alteon could improve the troubleshooting from the command line interface, they could do a better job making it easier."
"We are having a difficult time with the security module, and how to implement the Radware security."
"I would like this solution to have an integration tool that will convert configuration from other software, into readable values for this product during implementation."
"We don't integrate anything with it because most things don't integrate with Radware. If it were F5, we could integrate it. We can integrate F5 with practically anything that integrates with a load balancer, but that's not the case with Alteon."
"The interface implementation can be improved."
"Scalability should be based on customer requirements."
