Best Web Protection
A fairly stable solution that can be used for DDoS protection and security
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
Imperva DDoS is fairly stable, and its availability is quite high. I haven't faced any downtime or system instability issues with the solution.
What needs improvement?
Imperva DDoS does not provide version control. After I make any changes on any portal, I would want to roll back my changes and go back to a stable version if something goes wrong. That particular feature is not there on the UI portal.
They have this roundabout way wherein I can use different tools to integrate, do the versioning, and manage it on my own. It's not directly available, but I can use it indirectly.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Imperva DDoS for two to three years.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Imperva DDoS is a scalable product.
How was the initial setup?
The solution's initial setup is a bit difficult and not very easy. It's not that time-consuming if you have expertise. Once you get your hands on it, it's pretty straightforward.
What other advice do I have?
Imperva DDoS is deployed on-cloud in our organization.
I would recommend Imperva DDoS to users because it's a fairly stable product.
Overall, I rate Imperva DDoS an eight out of ten.
Scalable solution for good technical support services
What is most valuable?
The solution has the best volumetric DDoS attacks feature.
What needs improvement?
The solution needs to be improved every time there are new attacks. They need to add new features and techniques to prevent the attacks.
For how long have I used the solution?
We have been using the solution for seven years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I rate the solution's stability an eight out of ten.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
It is a scalable solution. It is suitable for medium and enterprise businesses.
How are customer service and support?
The solution's technical support services are fine.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
Compared with the competitors, the solution provides better security features, including web protection firewall and DDoS protection.
How was the initial setup?
The solution's initial setup process is complicated. You need to include the right security policy and discover the attack trends. The time taken for implementation depends on the project requirements.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The solution's price is reasonable. Although, it is a bit expensive for small companies. The cost of its licenses depends on the specific project requirement.
What other advice do I have?
I advise others to study their requirements while choosing DDoS protection thoroughly. They should know if the CDN is limited to their region or has a global reach. Also, DDoS attacks appear in different ways every single time. Thus, it is challenging to implement. It is crucial to know its surface, nature, and how to implement the security measures.
I rate the solution an eight out of ten.
One of the best WAF vendor today
My views
If your technically right. You can enhance the security in web like a pro.
This brings the organisation at its best.
A very powerful Technology with lots of potential in securing Applications
2. DDOS Protection(1 sec mitigation. Can handle, Detect & Block many request at a time)
3. And the Best GUI Ever seen(Easy to use & Understandable).
4. Instant Support portal for any Integrations.
5. Easy to learn(Simple portal, Simple Hierarchy of technology)
6. Easy to Implement(Like the pre-requisite are also minimum).
7. Best part is it is a cloud based product which makes it easy to access and less headache in comparison to Om premise solution.
2. Since it is a cloud platform, our customers often Dissatisfies that they have to raise a support ticket every time they need Logs from Imeprva. (It is a time consuming process).
3. Downloading reports is confusing sometimes.
Also it protects with top 10 OWASP which is mandatory for me with all the custom rules i have for my domains

The runtime and all the features are excellent in user perspective.
So I would say there is nothing to dislike
