We performed a comparison between Imperva DDoS and Radware Alteon based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Web Application Firewall (WAF) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We have peace of mind that nobody will use malware on us or try to hack our website."
"DDoS protection and WAF are the most valuable features. It is easy to deploy a service. It is easy and quick to deploy to a new website."
"The most valuable features are DDoS protection."
"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."
"Technical support provides good, quick responses."
"An improvement has been to our website: It increases the speed of our response, the capacity of the site, and optimizes the bandwidth."
"The solution's most valuable aspect is that it is easy to configure."
"It is a stable solution."
"The best part is that we are able to manage it easily. It is easy to manage and easy to integrate with third-party applications."
"The solution has been very stable."
"The most valuable feature is the load-balancing reverse proxy."
"The best features are the security through the web application firewall, the functionality that the solution offers, being a load balancer with the security functionality on top of it, and the ease of administration."
"The interface is easy, it's friendly, and has good alerting."
"It saves us a lot of work in terms of management since it has tasks already defined automatically. That enables us to better administer our services. It is very dynamic and easy to administer."
"The strength of this solution is the application delivery controller."
"I like the ADC feature and the global certificate feature."
"A limited tool if you're looking to customize."
"Analytics in the area of risk need to be improved to supply more information to the users for creating better environments."
"Certificate management could be improved."
"I would like to see automated reporting to improve visibility."
"Imperva should have more points of presence in Africa."
"The log analytics interface within Incapsula isn't really good. For example, if you have to get all logs from there, it's a very cumbersome process."
"Imperva always needs to adjust to new versions of cyber attacks, it needs to be faster, improve the resiliency of the software of the solution."
"It needs to be improved every time there are new attacks."
"We don't integrate anything with it because most things don't integrate with Radware. If it were F5, we could integrate it. We can integrate F5 with practically anything that integrates with a load balancer, but that's not the case with Alteon."
"Load balancing needs improvement. It needs better integration. I heard f5 works as a DNS operator which is not available in this solution. It would be better if that was implemented."
"Support is an area that needs improvement."
"The solution could be more robust."
"The GUI needs to be improved. Right now, the solution isn't so user-friendly."
"You need to have pretty good internal knowledge of the solution."
"A feature that I would like to see included in the next version might be a better analysis when working with crypt issues. Right now, it is very manual; you load it into Alteon and it runs. It would be interesting to see a more dynamic process."
"The reverse proxy piece is a little bit complicated. If the reverse proxy were easier to implement, that would help."
