We performed a comparison between AWS WAF and Huawei Cloud WAF based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Amazon Web Services (AWS), F5, Microsoft and others in Web Application Firewall (WAF)."The most valuable feature is the way it blocks threats to external applications."
"The most valuable feature of AWS WAF is the extra layer of security that I have when connecting to my web applications."
"AWS has flexibility in terms of WAF rules."
"One common use case is using detection protection for enhancing security models in AWS. Another use case is implementing log analysis and response recovery procedures for email services."
"The initial setup was very straightforward. Deployment took about ten minutes or less."
"Its best feature is that it is on the cloud and does not require local hardware resources."
"The ability to take multiple data sets and match those data sets together is the solution's most valuable feature. The data lake that comes with it is very useful because that allows us to match data sets with different configurations that we wouldn't normally be able to match."
"The most valuable features of AWS WAF are its cloud-native and on-demand."
"The most valuable feature of Huawei Cloud WAF is its ease of use."
"The technical support does not respond to bugs in the coding of the product."
"In a future release I would like to see automation. There's no interaction between the applications and that makes it tedious. We have to do the preparation all over again for each of our other applications."
"It would be better if AWS WAF were more flexible. For example, if you take a third-party WAF like Imperva, they maintain the rule set, and these rule sets are constantly updated. They push security insights or new rules into the firewall. However, when it comes to AWS, it has a standard set of rules, and only those sets of rules in the application firewalls trigger alerts, block, and manage traffic. Alternative WAFs have something like bot mitigation or bot control within the WAF, but you don't have such things in AWS WAF. I will say there could have been better bot mitigation plans, there could have been better dealer mitigation plans, and there could be better-updated rule sets for every security issue which arises in web applications. In the next release, I would like to see if AWS WAF could take on DDoS protection within itself rather than being in a stand-alone solution like AWS Shield. I would also like a solution like a bot mitigation."
"The user experience, the interface, is lacking. Sometimes it's hard to find certain areas that it has alerted on."
"It would be good if the solution provided managed WAF services."
"They should make the implementation process faster."
"The solution could be more reliable."
"While the complexity of the installation can vary from one service to another, overall, I would say that it and the configuration and navigation are somewhat complex."
"It would be good if the solution's feature set could be expanded to mirror what currently exists on the public cloud."
