Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"NGINX App Protect has complete control over the HTTP session.""The policies are flexible based on the technologies you use.""It's very easy to deploy.""It has the best documentation features.""WAF is useful to track mitigation, inclusion, prevention, and the parametric firewall.""The initial setup was simple and took three to four days.""The stability of the product is very impressive since it handles 60,000 to 70,000 requests or transactions per second.""We were looking for a product that is capable of complete automation and a container based solution. It's working."

More NGINX App Protect Pros →

"The ease of use of the platform is very nice.""PingSafe's integration is smooth. They are highly customer-oriented, and the integration went well for us.""The multi-cloud support is valuable. They are expanding to different clouds. It is not restricted to only AWS. It allows us to have different clouds on one platform.""The UI is responsive and user-friendly.""The management console is highly intuitive to comprehend and operate.""The offensive security feature is valuable because it publicly detects the offensive and vulnerable things present in our domain or applications. It checks any applications with public access. Some of the applications give public access to certain files or are present over a particular domain. It detects and lets us know with evidence. That is quite good. It is protecting our infrastructure quite well.""The solution's most valuable features are its ability to detect vulnerabilities inside AWS resources and its ability to rescan after a specific duration set by the administrator.""The agentless vulnerability scanning is great."

Cons
"Its technical support could be better.""It's challenging if you need to go for a high throughput.""I encountered issues with NGINX App Protect while trying to upgrade custom rules.""Right now, the tool doesn't provide an option revolving around update feeds, specifically the signature update option in the UI.""Areas for improvement would be if NGINX could scan for vulnerabilities and learn and update the signatures of DoS attacks.""As far as scalability, it takes a long time for deployment.""The configuration needs to be more flexible because it is difficult to do things that are outside of the ordinary.""NGINX App Protect would be improved with integration with Shape and F5 WAF, which would make it easy for users to manage all their web application security with a single solution."

More NGINX App Protect Cons →

"I'd like to see better onboarding documentation.""Some of the navigation and some aspects of the portal may be a little bit confusing.""We had a glitch in PingSafe where it fed us false positives in the past.""There should be more documentation about the product.""The recommended actions aren't always specific, so it might suggest recommendations that don't apply to the particular infrastructure code I'm reviewing.""One of the issues with the product stems from the fact that it clubs different resources under one ticket.""If I had to pick a complaint, it would be the way the hosts are listed in the tool. You have different columns separated by endpoint name, Cloud Account, and Cloud Instances ID. I wish there was something where we could change the endpoint name and not use just the IP address. We would like to have custom names or our own names for the instances. If I had a complaint, that would be it, but so far, it meets all the needs that we have.""I want PingSafe to integrate additional third-party resources. For example, PingSafe is compatible with Azure and AWS, but Azure AD isn't integrated with AWS. If PingSafe had that ability, it would enrich the data because how users interact with our AWS environment is crucial. All the identity-related features require improvement."
