Author infoRatingReview Summary
Pre Sales Architect at network techlab4.5I recommend Fortinet FortiWeb Cloud WAF for enterprise public apps needing Layer 7 security like bots, DDoS, OWASP, and API protection; setup is easy and stability is strong. It’s expensive, scalability/support can vary, and I want SAML beyond 2FA.
Network and Security Engineer (Contractor) at Clymora Technology Limited4.5I've found Fortinet FortiWeb Cloud WAF-as-a-Service reliable, cost-effective, and easy to use, helping us meet PCI DSS standards while successfully blocking common web attacks; however, its logging and reporting features could be more user-friendly.
Network Engineer at Version 14.0I find FortiWeb Cloud WAF easy to set up and onboard websites quickly, with useful threat intelligence and customizable rules. Support is strong, pricing seems competitive, but reporting needs improvement since only denied traffic is visible.
Principal Network Architect at a financial services firm with 201-500 employees4.5We use Fortinet FortiWeb Cloud WAF-as-a-Service for our web-facing APIs, valuing its OWASP protection and bot management. It's user-friendly with automatic updates, though alerting and X header forwarding need improvement. It compares well with AWS WAF.
Owner at IT CARE4.5I’ve used Fortinet FortiWeb Cloud WAF-as-a-Service for about ten years and find it easy to manage in the cloud for remote users, with helpful AI analytics, automated detection, reporting, and responsive support; however, the pricing feels high despite good ROI.
Technical Engineer Technical Security at a tech services company with 10,001+ employees4.5I’ve used Fortinet FortiWeb Cloud WAF-aaS for three years, managing it for global customers. Its AI analytics, real-time threat intelligence, and CDN/GSLB handle bot, API, and AI attacks well, with easy onboarding and strong reporting via SIEM/SOAR; RASP is missing.
Assistant Technical Director at a comms service provider with 11-50 employees4.0I've used Fortinet FortiWeb Cloud WAF-as-a-Service for years, appreciate its real-time threat intelligence and reporting, but feel its AI capabilities need improvement; setup is easy, support is solid, and I'd rate it eight out of ten.
IT Specialist at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees4.5I use Fortinet FortiWeb Cloud WAF-as-a-Service for all applications needing external access. It is secure, user-friendly, and effective at identifying and closing vulnerabilities, providing good ROI. I also utilize F5 for on-prem solutions.
