Advanced protection has secured critical web workloads and provides clear traffic visibility
From a security perspective, there remains a security loophole, as some browsers in the market can bypass the Turnstile solution, which requires approximately 40 seconds to do so. From a performance perspective, this is acceptable. We also tried Google reCAPTCHA, and that can also be bypassed. From a security perspective, I would say neither solution is completely secured. Regarding uptime, we have faced a couple of incidents due to Cloudflare in recent years, so I cannot say we receive 100% uptime for our region. We sometimes face challenges, including downtime and other issues. As a result, we are not receiving 100% uptime from Cloudflare's solution. Since most of our customers are in this region, we need alternatives. We need something more competitive than Cloudflare. Unfortunately, in Bangladesh, Cloudflare has three points of presence already, and we cannot find any other solution provider in Bangladesh as an alternative, which presents another challenge. Competitor solutions have more attack signatures, which ensure better security compared to Cloudflare's predefined configurations. Customers do not have options to modify any configuration parameters in Cloudflare, whereas other competitor solutions, such as F5 Distributed Cloud, allow customers to tune configurations according to their requirements. Cloudflare could improve in this area. Additionally, regarding visibility, Cloudflare has static visibility, but they could adopt dynamic graph features for their customers.

Effective network and DDoS protection with suitable pricing
I use Corero for network DDoS protection projects. It is particularly effective in providing protection against network DDoS attacks I find Corero to be good, especially in a wide area. It does not have application filtering or application DDoS prevention, but for network DDoS projects, it is…

Advanced protection has optimized web and API performance while reducing infrastructure costs
From the features perspective and functionality-wise, there are areas of Radware DDoS that I would like to see improved or enhanced in the future. Version upgrades are being provided, but they should communicate with clients about these new features being available so clients can test them and deploy them on the disaster recovery system before moving to the live segment. There should be a test report that will provide confidence that the version is stable and everything will work properly. Last time we faced an issue with a version upgrade, and we faced extensive troubleshooting with littile bit more time in the troubleshooting process. It turned out to be a small issue that was resolved by the engineering team. I would like to see improved support from Radware DDoS. Sometimes in support, we have to log the call with their support partners rather than Radware. After ten years of experience, we know exactly what the issue is, and we understand that it cannot be handled by their support channel or partner level. Radware team always asks us to go through the partners, but sometimes we have found that the issue cannot be handled by the partners. After the partners fail to resolve the issue, it goes to the Radware team. At that time, one to two days of required timeline gets increased by one to two days. If Radware came into immediate action and resolved the issue rather than relying on their service partners, it would be better. After ten years, we have the knowledge of troubleshooting, and we understand that the issues we are facing with Radware can only be resolved by their team. However, due to their policy, they insist we move through the partner first, and only after the partner fails do they escalate to Radware. During that troubleshooting period of twenty-four to forty-eight hours, we remain in an unresolved state with the reported issue.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Generally, I am satisfied with this product."
"The technical support on offer is excellent; they are very helpful and responsive, and we are quite happy with the level of service they provide to their customers."
"Its ease of integration with Office 365 and the fact that it's a good product compared to what I had before"
"It's a reasonably priced solution that meets customers' needs and it's not too difficult to deploy."
"The most valuable feature of Cloudflare is that it has a free version. They give us the free version with the anti-DDoS features and also the load balancing solution."
"Cloudflare offers CDN and DDoS protection. We have the front end, API, and database in how you structure applications."
"The solution automatically detects and responds to certain types of traffic based on geolocation."
"The tool is user-friendly."
"It is a very efficient and robust appliance."
"It is a good solution, its vendor support is the most valuable, and it is simple and works well if you have Juniper MX routers."
"The most important aspect, in general, is that the price is suitable for most clients."
"It is an agnostic and transparent inline platform, which means that the maximum visibility of the symmetric and asymmetric traffic is available, even allowing bidirectional detection of the attack."
"The DDoS protection features are valuable."
"The most valuable feature of Corero is its ability to handle smaller attacks in terms of the amount of volume and time. You can handle almost 100 perfect of the attacks locally."
"It is a good solution. Its vendor support is the most valuable. It is simple and works well if you have Juniper MX routers."
"This is a hybrid solution."
"All of our traffic has to pass through the appliance, so we can very quickly mitigate the attack."
"Its functionality is very good."
"I would recommend Radware DDoS to other users because in security, there are many layers of protection, and this is one of the most exposed regarding the internet."
"Radware DDoS has positively impacted my organization by improving our security."
"A flexible affordable solution for defense against DDos attacks."
"The initial setup is easy."
"Radware DDoS has been very good in mitigating advanced DDoS threats, such as burst, DNS attacks, floods, and web scraping, while ensuring that legitimate users are not affected during a DDoS attack."
"Radware DDoS's behavior-based detection technology is the best thing I have, as I do not need to worry about any new forms of attack that are not pre-configured for filtering because it can create its own signatures based on the quota values I set for each protocol."
 

Cons

"An integrated SSO feature would be useful for Cloudflare DNS."
"Technical support is lacking."
"The pricing, setup cost, and licensing for Cloudflare are a bit on the higher side overall."
"With CDN loads, sometimes we get an error that the host server is unavailable when the connection between CloudFlare and the server timed out."
"I would like to not need a separate server for non-www redirection under the CNAME setup option."
"For large enterprises, the pricing is okay. However, the enterprise price for small projects is a bit high. A mid-tier pricing option would be beneficial."
"I have found CloudFlare's support to be unresponsive at times, and not very helpful with providing technical details for issues that we have reported over the years."
"There should be a specific price list for enterprise-level customers."
"I'd like to see an increase in Corero's international team. Our clients are generally companies with an international presence and Corero is not represented in all the countries where our clients have presence."
"The approach taken by Corero is to partner with other organizations in order to address volumetric attacks that cannot be handled by the hardware installed in the infrastructure. Corero does not have a solution for these attacks, so they are looking for partners to help them manage them. This approach is supplemented by local hardware, but the main focus is on the partnerships. It would be beneficial to have a more complete solution."
"Juniper is known in our country, but it is not very popular."
"Corero needs to improve its application DDoS prevention capabilities and user behavior detection features."
"Lacks international presence."
"Juniper is known in our country, but it is not very popular. There is also not enough information about Corero. Our enterprise and financial sectors don't know about this solution. They need to provide more information and do more marketing for this solution in our country."
"The product must provide more Layer 7 capabilities."
"It could use support in Spanish."
"APSolute Vision needs to be more granular so that it's possible to get real-time information."
"As price increases based on the volume of net traffic, it can get expensive."
"Customization could be improved."
"Better integration with the automated incident response platform, and the ecosystem in general, would be an improvement."
"Radware DefenseFlow should add new features and algorithms to make it efficient."
"It could incorporate more intelligence for reacting with web site visitors."
"The solution is a little more pricey than other options on the market."
"We heavily relied on Radware's technical team to ensure the proper setup and configuration of VPN tunnels for cloud mitigation."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution is expensive."
"The pricing for the service is reasonable, neither excessively cheap nor prohibitively expensive. It aligns well with the value of their solution."
"Cloudflare's pricing is not much higher and is good for middle-level organizations."
"We don't have any issues with the price."
"The solution has many features but there are ones that you need to pay for. Sometimes you have to find out which is available for free and which you have to pay for."
"The pricing depends on the usage, but the cheapest would be around 5,000 USD a month."
"So far I use free tier and happy with it. You can subscribe to business package if needed."
"The product's pricing is minimal compared to other products."

"The price of Corero is affordable."
"Radware's Cloud DDoS Protection Service stands out for its competitive pricing, making it a strong contender in our decision."

"Radware DefensePro is expensive when considering the issue we have and its limitations."
"It is expensive. I would rate it a seven out of ten for pricing."

"Licensing of Radware is quite simple and straightforward, while Arbor DDos is a bit complicated."
"The initial cost is over $100,000 for one appliance."
