Automation has transformed firewall changes and has reduced audit effort and breach risk
The best features AlgoSec offers include automation of firewall rule changes, centralized security policy management, and improved compliance and audit readiness. AlgoSec has positively impacted my organization by allowing us to see faster change management, reduced audit costs, and reduced breach risk. I can share specific metrics indicating that through OpEx savings, we have been able to reduce firewall rule analysis and rule change handling time by 60 to 90 percent. This has led to fewer manual tasks and a smaller workload on our network and security teams. We have seen a return on investment with reduced audit costs, less time spent preparing evidence manually, and reduced breach risk. I would like to add that on centralized security policy management, it reduces complexity in multi-vendor environments.

Good support, nice interface, and simple to upgrade
PDF format is not available for Alert Composer. There are file attachment or body content output options. The other issue is that the range object can be displayed in the rule viewer section. If we know the range object, we provide imaging, but if we do not know the range object, there is no imaging. It also allows adding range object rules when performing server cloning. In general, however, we have made successful progress since the POC process.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It helps in regulatory compliance metrics and overall firewall security optimization."
"FireFlow continues to drive customer efficiencies, allowing an organisation to keep up with the pace of change."
"It provides faster go to market with fewer resources."
"AlgoSec assists with identifying traffic flow and related issues within a short span of time."
"It is a great tool that makes work easier each day."
"AlgoSec has improved our organization in terms of improving efficiency within our firewall setup. It has added automation to working process that has helped us achieve our initial goal of reacting faster to incoming requests, which as a result of allows the relevant teams time to focus on other areas of importance."
"AlgoSec saves our IT department a lot of time and also creates transparency."
"One of the features that I like about AlgoSec is the topology table. It helps us understand where the traffic flows through, where it gets interconnected, and how the traffic flows from our device to the other device."
"The platform is easy to deploy and maintain."
"Version upgrades can be done quickly."
 

Cons

"AlgoSec could be improved by their support not being available twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, which is a concern, especially when working remotely and needing support in different countries."
"The FireFlow template does not allow the user to perform external actions like sending an email or triggering a specific action."
"The reports are lacking information when they come out. They will not pull the URL or application information from Cisco FTDs. I know this works for Palo Alto Firewalls, which we currently do not have. If they could improve the integration with Cisco FTDs as a whole, that would be immensely helpful."
"AlgoSec is very fine for all, but there is a need to remove AI-based features such as new automation."
"ABF needs to be more integration with AFF/AFA. We needs object level permissions and application level recertifications."
"Environments with many devices need a lot of hardware resources to avoid slowdowns."
"I believe Active Change needs to be improved because not all products are supported, and some functions cannot be implemented by Active Change either."
"Our experience with support has been inconsistent. Sometimes, support is fast and clean; other times, not so much. Occasionally, they have taken a while to respond or provided an inadequate workaround instead of a solution."
"PDF format is not available for Alert Composer."
"The product's web page view is very basic. They could add new features to it."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing of AlgoSec is fair."
"I compared the prices of AlgoSec with Tufin and FireMon. I don't recall the exact cost, but it was within budget and not very expensive. In addition to standard licensing fees, we didn't have any significant additional costs. We did hire new people for the change management process, but that's not a technology issue."
"The pricing for this solution seems to be reasonable for the functionality."
"The licensing is very easy to set up, with flexible licensing methods such as subscription and perpetual."
"I'm not involved in the financial aspect, but I understand the platform to be expensive, though I need to find out how it compares to competitors like Tufin, for example."
"Cost is based on firewall. There are bundles, e.g., virtual firewalls might make the solution cheaper."
"Pricing is easy to grasp."
"The cost is kind of high but I really did not check any other vendors."
"Opinnate is inexpensive than other products."
