We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Currently, we have audit features for auditing databases, for example, granular auditing, which we really enjoy. We've been using it to check what users do.""The initial setup is very simple.""The audit feature is great. It is totally encrypted.""The cyber intelligence feature is the most valuable.""The most valuable feature is the Data Masking.""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 technical support for Imperva is super, super, super.""The most valuable feature is the automatic reports on new databases, which gives us up-to-date inventory management."

Cons
"The solution needs local support.""Database security from the access management perspective could be better.""Imperva needs to improve their cloud capabilities.""Imperva SecureSphere Database Security could improve the database defense feature called camouflage. This feature was responsible for the data mask but now it does not work well and we need another solution. All our banks have teams that are regarded with care and they need to mask sensitive data in order to provide testing to developers.""Reporting could be improved.""Overall, it's a very good product but they could do with some modifications log-wise.""I would like to see integration such that there is support for different kinds of environments, such as on-premises versus cloud.""I have worked with IBM before, and I prefer its ease of deployment and management. Imperva SecureSphere Database Security has tricky deployment, whereas IBM's deployment is straightforward because of the UI."

"The solution is relatively expensive.""The product's cost could be better.""The solution is excessively expensive. There is a lot of room for improvement, considering the pricing model of the solution."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The cost of support for this solution is very expensive."
  • "Licensing fees are on a yearly basis, and it is a good value for the money."
  • "There is an annual licensing fee for upgrading the device."
  • "Pricing is low and scalable to add features and volume."
  • "The pricing over-all depends on the entry level. For example, if support and maintenance are about $20,000 - $25,000, the initial cost can be five times more. It is less expensive for the company to maintain the client than to make the deployment."
  • "We have all the licenses, which we pay for annually. The price is a little high, but the product is good."
  • "They have introduced new price models, which makes the product more affordable now."
  • "The price is very high but compared to the price of the overall solution, then I think it's a good deal because the solution itself is great."
