| Director De Netquatro at Netquatro | 4.5 | I use Comodo cWatch to detect site vulnerabilities and appreciate its white-label portal and malware prevention features. However, the portal is slow, and the CDN needs improvement. I've found Cloudflare's performance to be better. |
| CEO & MD at Gurjartech | 5.0 | I find Comodo cWatch Web excellent for security and compliance, valuing its stability and easy setup. However, it needs improved hardware performance due to high resource consumption, and customer support occasionally lacks the deep technical knowledge required. |
| Co-Founder at Multitechservers | 4.5 | I use Comodo primarily for malware scanning. I value its user-friendly interface, fast, detailed results, and FIM feature. Setup is simple. My main concern is delayed support, leading to an 8/10 rating. |
| Manager at a manufacturing company with 1-10 employees | 5.0 | My hacked website needed security, and this service quickly scanned, detected, and perfectly removed the malware. Their security plan offers complete protection, though I think a better CDN would be a great addition. |
I use the solution to detect vulnerabilities in the site.
The solution allows me to change my logo. It gives me a white-label portal because I am a partner. OWASP has been the most effective in malware prevention. It can detect if the headers are okay and do FTP scans. We get alerts if we have some malware. It is removed very quickly.
The portal is a little slow. I have to wait for it to load all the information. CDN's performance must be improved.
I have been using the solution for two years.
The tool takes time to refresh some tabs. It never crashes, though.
When I have issues, I contact the support team. I do not have any issues with support. Support is good.
Positive
The deployment is very easy. The deployment takes one minute. Once deployed, cWatch automatically takes all the information from the DNS records. I don't have to do anything. It’s very fast.
I do the deployment myself.
Comodo cWatch’s price is very good compared to Cloudflare’s. The first level of Cloudflare costs us about $20. The next level costs $100. Comodo cWatch’s first level, which has fewer features, costs $7. The next level of Comodo cWatch costs around $29.
I also use Cloudflare. The performance of Cloudflare is better than that of Comodo cWatch.
I will recommend the product to others. Overall, I rate the tool a nine out of ten.
I did multiple projects on security compliance based on HIPAA and ISO 27001, CIS, and the PCI DSS. We are using Comodo to protect us from, among others things, DDoS and Ransomware.
Comodo cWatch Web is a Managed Security Service for websites and applications that combines a Web Application Firewall (WAF) provisioned over a Secure Content Delivery Network (CDN). The service includes malware detection scanning, preventive methods, and removal.
I find that Comodo, when I use it for protecting a website or an application from attacks, is very good. For example, if I need to implement the security guidelines according to the PCI DSS, the payment card industry, it has helped me protect the credit card information. In another case, I use HIPAA guidelines for the healthcare industry. In that case, Comodo will take care of hiding sensitive information on the website.
The solution needs to build better performance, specifically in the hardware resources.
For example, a few days ago, I faced around 30 to 40 users and I had issues with the Comodo C1clp. It's like it's using the use CPU of their systems.
According to the DLP or encryption, DLP or encryption providers should not use so much CPU or memory consumption, actually. If these spike then an issue may have occurred and the services are affected. Clients begin to raise concerns.
People don't know much about cybersecurity, actually. They just know see that the system is hanging and the server is not working, or that the website is very slow. They don't know the backend processes. However, we do as technical personnel. That said, in that scenario, it is very hard to explain to the customers that they haven't been hacked or aren't in any danger. It would simply be easier if we didn't have to explain and it would help if they could work on their resource utilization.
I've been using the solution for the past two years now.
The solution is pretty stable. I've never faced pressing issues or hanging issue.
The scalability of the solution is okay.
I'm a startup company in India. I also work with a company that has four branches in INdia and a branch in America. That has a total employee base of 8,000 and they are on the Data Center solution. We have around 400 to 500 hardware servers, which are highly physical and two data centers. One is in Jaipur, Rajasthan and another one is in New Delhi.
The technical support of the solution is okay. I'd rate it seven out of ten.
Sometimes some of the customer care reps are not very familiar with the technology of Comodo. They just know that basic functionality. They're similar to L1 engineers. However, if you are facing an issue with your endpoint DLP, the issue is never in the low or medium category. It's always in a high category. We need the solution back as soon as possible. We don't have time to deal with someone who may not know how to help. The timeframe should only be five to ten minutes, however, if you have to go through L1, L2, L3 help before you get your answer, it's taking much longer than that to get to the resolution you need to stabilize the solution.
Earlier, I use McAfee DLP and Symantec. I prefer Comodo very much over these options.
The initial setup was very straightforward. There's no complexity during the process.
If you are a Comodo admin or if you are a cybersecurity expert, then you easily can implement Comodo. The installation, the configuration process, is very clear and you can learn a lot of things from the internet if you have questions. There are many blogs that we used where we got more information about the analyzing tools, for example.
For me, if I configure everything for an organization that has around 2000 employees in their premises and if they have around a hundred servers, I could deploy the solution in around two to three hours. That includes configuring it and ensuring the requirements and guidelines are aligned.
I implement Comodo in between my endpoints. It's behind my firewall. I implemented via the internet, first, then had my router connected to the firewall, etc.
I'm the technical lead with 12 others underneath me, and I divide tasks amongst them. If there's any maintenance needed, we can handle it. However, only the core team really works with the solution.
I have a technical head who handles cyber security and he can access Comodo as well.
All of the licensing and payments are handled by the finance department. Therefore, I'm unsure of what the actual costs of the solution are.
We are using the latest version minus one.
The solution is very good. It's definitely in the top ten, and I feel more secure under this than I did under Symantec or McAfee.
On a scale from one to ten, I'd give it a ten due to the security I feel under the device.
My primary use case is for malware scanning. Most of my clients have a virtual site so they have frequent malware issues.
The production features have been useful. Whenever the site is under attack, they get an alert from Comodo. You can simply go to the application on their website, log in and you can check to see who is attacking. You can also block particular things. It is user-friendly even if you don't know much about security, you can easily familiarize yourself with it in a few days.
The FIM feature, the information in the new management system, and their support are the most valuable features. The scanned results are quite fast as compared to other platforms compared to scanning timing. It takes about a minute or two minutes. Also, the results of the Comodo scan results are in detail.
I don't think they need improvement.
A small problem is from the support team. Sometimes they are a bit delayed. They should improve their response time.
The stability is good.
We have around 1,000 users.
The initial setup is straightforward. It's easy. It's a user-friendly platform if you don't know much about security. When you download the software on your windows, you just click next and install it. It's not as complicated as you would expect. It takes around ten minutes to deploy. If you're using it on the cloud, there's no complexity.
My customers see ROI in the sense that their whole environment is secure. They get alerts for future attacks and they see how they can prevent future attacks. If a client doesn't use a solution like this, he will get attacked, so it's worth the money to safeguard themselves.
We use the paid version. The price is quite fair compared to other available products.
I would rate Comodo an eight out of ten. Not a ten because of the support.
My website was hacked, so I tried to get the best website security online. I browsed through their site and got some comparative better solution to vouch for.
They took my website under their surveillance. They kind of scanned the website for infection and detected the incident, and they removed it in a jiff. Ola!
Website malware removal: I mean clean and perfect. They have a security plan, which comes with complete protection/a year subscription.
Better CDN could be a great thing since this is the best that any website owners would be interested in for protecting their website.
