Find out in this report how the two Distributed Denial of Service (DDOS) Protection solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The product helps our organization to access sites located in different regions quickly."
"Its initial setup process is straightforward."
"Support is good; the product works as advertised. We have a Slack connection with them. So we can basically ask for help, live, engage, and ring when they respond. Very quickly."
"Fastly uses configuration versioning, where you can deploy a new version in less than one minute."
"Rate limiting is a good feature that protects from volumetric attacks."
"Compute@Edge features are valuable to me."
"Provides Anti-DDoS protection, as well as other protections like SQL injection, Cross-Site Scripting, and antiscanner. These types of protection are valuable to the business due to the daily attacks on our portals, and that often cannot be seen without a tool like this."
"This product is a reliable defense from malicious attacks on a network environment."
"IncapRules is one of the most valuable features, as you can create your own security and access control rules on top of your security policy. Using IncapRules we were able to easily block Layer 7 DDoS attacks several times."
"The setup of Imperva DDoS was easy."
"We have peace of mind that nobody will use malware on us or try to hack our website."
"The most valuable features are DDoS protection."
"Its unique interface for managing security performance and ease of use are the most valuable features of this solution."

"The solution's pricing could be better."
"Stronger analytics would be helpful, like showing configurations that haven't served a certain amount of traffic in a while. With many properties, things can get lost track of - duplicates or unused configurations not properly decommissioned."
"The product should provide improved bot detection and management."
"Fastly's customer service area needs improvement."
"Support is not that great."
"I would like to see automated reporting to improve visibility."
"Incapsula services also provides load balancing services for their service IP address environment. So far, with monitoring their services, the IP address was only changed once."
"The cost could be lower; our end clients need to have a high budget to purchase this solution."
"Certificate management could be improved."
"The product could use a broader scope in the area of policies."
"I would like to have support for SSL management and secure DNS."
