SmartWall's capability in delivering localized attack handling provides effective network DDoS protection. The hybrid approach it offers is well-suited for meeting customer needs. Pricing is competitive, focusing on network protection rather than application filtering. However, Corero seeks to improve Spanish support, enhance DDoS prevention, and expand internationally. Partnerships are crucial for handling volumetric attacks, while improved Layer 7 capabilities and better application DDoS prevention are desired. Customers benefit from rapid reaction times, addressing smaller impactful attacks in data centers and networks.

| Presale Manager at HTech Vietnam | 4.0 | I use Corero mainly for network DDoS protection, where it excels, though it lacks application filtering and application DDoS prevention. Its pricing is client-friendly, and it's comparable to products like Radware DefensePro, with room for improving application-level features. |
| Presales Specialist at Netnordic | 3.5 | I use Corero for DDoS protection in our routers and find its features valuable. However, it needs more Layer 7 capabilities and deep inspection features to improve functionality. We haven't considered or used other solutions or providers. |
| Diretor de Tecnologia at Lever Tech - Tecnologia Sustentavel | 4.5 | I've used Corero for government clients and appreciate its one-microsecond latency threat detection. It effectively handles smaller attacks and features a user-friendly interface. However, it relies on partnerships for tackling larger volumetric attacks. |
| Head of security of digital systems, electronic databases and networks at a financial services firm with 1,001-5,000 employees | 4.0 | I found Corero to be a good DDoS solution, especially if you have Juniper MX routers, noting its valuable vendor support and easy setup. However, it needs more marketing in my country to increase awareness. |
| Managing Director at IMTI | 4.0 | As a consultant, I provide this hybrid solution to clients and rate it 8/10. Its setup is straightforward, but I wish Corero had a stronger international presence to better support our globally active customers. |
| Local Sevices Engineer at a computer software company with 201-500 employees | 5.0 | I find Corero Network's SmartWall excellent for DDoS mitigation, especially its robust, high-performing, low-latency independent link processing and easy installation. It provides comprehensive protection, though I wish it offered Spanish support. |
