Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The WAF itself has been very valuable to me because it has such a complete range of features. Another reason why I like it is because it also takes care of the total overview of the traffic over the network.""The solution has been quite stable. I have not seen any bugs at all.""The most valuable features of Imperva Web Application Firewall are the monitoring of databases and the dashboards are easy to understand.""Its inline transferring mode is the most valuable because it is 100% transparent. When you change the IP, there is no change on the network side. If you can't and want to try to reach an IP, you can reach the server IP. There are many other advanced security features in it. The smallest appliances of Imperva can handle the highest traffic at a customer site. For example, a smaller appliance from Imperva can provide you the same security as an F5 product.""The solution can scale.""The tool's profiling feature maps all the web application directories and related components on the profile directory. It has improved the security of my client's website applications.""The most important feature I have found to be the ease in how to do the backup and restores.""Imperva Web Application Firewall is stable."

Cons
"It would be helpful to have a "recommended deployment", or even a list of basic features that should either be used or turned on by default.""The UI interface needs improvement.""Their portal is very limited and needs improvement.""It would be nice to have more security control over mobile applications so I would suggest adding more mobile security features. It would also be beneficial to see improvements in regards to interface bandwidth performance, CPU time, and RAM size. Learning capability of the device is quite weak.""One potential improvement for Imperva is enhancing its alert system.""The tool needs to improve CPU and storage memory.""The initial setup could be simplified. Every time you have to install the solution you have to get in touch with support or somebody that can to do that for you.""The user interface could be better."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Make sure you understand the way that Imperva charges. It's very affordable. However, I would like to see a package with the Virtual Patching included. You get to do patching separately."
  • "Everybody complains about the price of this solution."
  • "The cost of this solution depends on the platform."
  • "The price of this solution is a little bit high compared to competitors."
  • "There are some licenses that you have to buy to use some features. Its price could be better. Price is always important because, at the end of the day, customers have a budget. If you can meet the budget, you can sell, and if you don't, you cannot sell."
  • "There is a license for this solution and we purchase the license annually with no additional fees."
  • "There are a couple of different licensing models."
  • "The price of Imperva Web Application Firewalls is expensive compared to others."
