Fastly Next-Gen WAF and Azure Web Application Firewall compete in addressing web application security vulnerabilities. Fastly Next-Gen WAF shows an advantage in agility and analytics, while Azure Web Application Firewall excels in Microsoft's ecosystem integration.
Features: Fastly Next-Gen WAF provides real-time threat detection, blocking mechanisms, and customizable settings. Azure Web Application Firewall offers comprehensive integration, extensive security management features, and compatibility within Microsoft’s cloud platforms.
Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Fastly Next-Gen WAF is praised for its quick and flexible setup, easily adapting to various environments. Azure Web Application Firewall offers seamless integration within Azure but may be less flexible for non-Azure users. Azure’s customer support is more structured, especially for existing Azure customers.
Pricing and ROI: Fastly Next-Gen WAF is cost-effective, providing quick ROI for those requiring agile solutions. Azure Web Application Firewall demands a substantial initial investment, targeting enterprises seeking extensive integration and justifying costs with long-term value from Microsoft services.
