Imperva Application Security Platform Reviews

It is complicated to integrate the solution's on-cloud version with other platforms. 

I have been using the solution for six years.

It is a stable solution.

The solution is scalable. We have 20 applications hosted on its on-premises version and around five applications on mobile infrastructure. A team of three administrators manages the operations.

The solution's technical support is good.

I have used F5 and Barracuda before. Both solutions are easy to use.

The solution's initial setup is easy and takes two or three days to complete.

We implemented the solution with the help of its reseller.

The solution is stable and easy to manage. I rate it a nine out of ten.

Our primary use case for the solution is securing our applications and customer-facing website.

The Imperva Web Application Firewall feature I have found the most valuable is the ease of deployment. The solution's customer service is good as well. 

The Imperva Web Application Firewall automations are good, but there is still room for improvement with them. Fast rule propagation could also be improved.

My company has been using Imperva Web Application Firewall for four years. But, personally, I have been using it for three years. It was already operational in the organization when I joined. 

We have not had any issues with stability. 

I think Imperva Web Application Firewall is scalable. 

I have had a positive experience with Imperva Web Application Firewall's tech support so far. They are knowledgeable and respond on time. 

Positive

I was not with the company when Imperva Web Application Firewall was initially deployed but I believe the process was straightforward. 

F5 firewalls are clunky and that is why we do not use them. They are good and powerful, but it takes quite a bit to set them up. They are not as easy to set up as Imperva Web Application Firewall.

I would say: take Imperva Web Application Firewall into consideration because of its simplicity. 

We are using Imperva Web Application Firewall to monitor databases.

The most valuable features of Imperva Web Application Firewall are the monitoring of databases and the dashboards are easy to understand.

Imperva Web Application Firewall could improve the API integration. It was complex for us. Additionally, The onboarding could be better.

I have been using Imperva Web Application Firewall for approximately three months.

Imperva Web Application Firewall is stable.

The scalability of the Imperva Web Application Firewall is good.

The initial setup of the Imperva Web Application Firewall is complex.

I rate the initial setup of Imperva Web Application Firewall a four out of five.

The solution is used to detect and block application attacks on the internet perimeter. We integrate the solution with SOAR and Phantom to automate our playbook and block URLs.

The solution reduces the risk of attacks and that benefits our clients. 

The solution integrates seamlessly with other tools and has a good alert mechanism. 

The solution provides good protection against OWASP top-ten attacks.

The solution works for particular zones but isn't always the best solution for all zones. 

The solution's pricing could be improved. 

I have been using the solution for five years. 

The solution is stable. 

We implemented the SA solution and have not tried to scale it beyond our client's 10,000 users. 

I do not have experience with escalating issues because our internal support team handles vendor support. 

We have not switched solutions but prefer this solution for on-premises. When we need a tool that is cloud-based, we prefer other solutions. 

The initial setup was not complex and integration was easy. 

The solution was implemented by the supplier. 

The solution's pricing is an issue. 

We use many tools for the application layer including Imperva, Infoblox Secure DNS, and Palo Alto. 

The solution is a leader in the market and is easy to use.

I rate the solution a nine out of ten. 

Imperva WAF's strongest features are the detection of web application threats and vulnerabilities in the source code.

An improvement for Imperva WAF would be to reduce the number of false positives and create more strong use cases based on AI/ML or behavioral analytics. In the next release, Imperva WAF should include more use cases for Advanced Persistent Threats and next emission sophisticated attacks.

I've been working with Imperva WAF for six to seven months.

Imperva WAF is scalable.

Imperva's technical support is very good.

I'd recommend Imperva WAF as a good product in terms of occupation perspective and strong WAF. I'd rate it as seven out of ten.

Imperva Web Application Firewall is used for customers who are looking to secure their multiple applications and want to block the threats, such as DDoS and ransomware attacks. Imperva Web Application Firewall delivers three main things, data security, data availability, and access control. For data security, it prevents malware and malicious threats. For the data availability, by preventing threats, such as malware, data can be available each and every time. You are able to have Access control, you have the ability to control the access.

The most valuable features of the Imperva Web Application Firewall are DDoS, malware, and the other malicious threat prevention it provides. Additionally, third-party integration is available. You can forward the log for further analysis.

Imperva Web Application Firewall can improve by providing better features, such as improved prevention of zero-day attacks. Additionally, it should include a VR meta-analysis.

I have been using the Imperva Web Application Firewall for approximately 15 years.

Imperva Web Application Firewall is stable, and the performance is good.

The solution is best suited for enterprise-sized businesses. It is a scalable solution.

The Technical support is good from Imperva Web Application Firewall.

I have used another solution previously which was good. However, Imperva Web Application Firewall had more features.

The deployment of the Imperva Web Application Firewall is simple. However, it is not very user-friendly. It would be a benefit because the customers would have a better time with the installation.

I did the implementation Imperva Web Application Firewall myself and it took approximately three days.

Imperva Web Application Firewall price is higher compared to other solutions. However, everything is included in the price.

I do the maintenance and upgrades of the solution if it requires it. I would recommend this solution to everyone. 

I rate Imperva Web Application Firewall a nine out of ten.

We use it for protection. For example, for one of our banking clients, we use it to protect their mobile and website applications.

Imperva is really amazing, feature wise and performance wise.

Integration with IBM AS/400 and Db2 is okay.

The cost could be lower; our end clients need to have a high budget to purchase this solution.

We have been a partner for Imperva Incapsula for two years.

It's stable.

It's a scalable solution.

Technical support is provided by a distributor, and sometimes, there's a delay.

I would rate the technical support at four on a scale from one to ten.

Neutral

The initial setup is easy because it's a plugin; it's an appliance. That means that there is a predefined setting.

Even with the professional service, it does not take a long time. It takes a few days, and everything is done.

For the professional service, usually one person from the distributor is required for deployment.

We have an issue with Imperva Incapsula in the Iraqi market because of the high price.

If you are looking for efficiency and the best technology, you should use Imperva. If you have a limited budget, however, then this is not a suitable solution for you.

I would rate Imperva Incapsula at eight on a scale from one to ten.

The mitigation feature is what I find most valuable in Imperva Web Application Firewall. The interface of the cloud version of this solution is also good.

Every product has a room for improvement, and in Imperva Web Application Firewall, we found a limitation when we need to check which email IP traffic is coming from, e.g. we cannot find it.

Imperva Web Application Firewall is a good system, but we found that the visibility of the diverse-path server, e.g. where the traffic is coming from, the different IPs, etc., needs improvement. If we can populate those information, we can block them in our firewalls, and that would make this solution better.

Though the cloud interface of Imperva Web Application Firewall is good, the interface of the on-premises version is not as appealing, and it's what I'd like to see improved in the next release of this solution.

Imperva Web Application Firewall is a very stable solution.

The cloud version of Imperva Web Application Firewall is very scalable.

Technical support for this solution is good.

It's very easy to set up the cloud version of Imperva Web Application Firewall. It's not difficult, because you just need to map your DNS, and that's it. Setting up this solution is not a problem.

I'm working as a cyber security consultant and I provide Imperva Web Application Firewall and other similar solutions to customers.

We are working in the Middle East, e.g. we are deploying solutions to different organizations.

I don't have any input on the pricing for Imperva Web Application Firewall, as that part is covered by the research team.

I don't have advice for people looking into implementing this solution, except that everyone has different opinions and different requirements. Every organization has different requirements, and their choices will be based on their requirements. If all their requirements are fulfilled by Imperva Web Application Firewall, then they'll want to implement or use it.

I've giving Imperva Web Application Firewall a score of seven out of ten.
