Centralized security policies have streamlined audits and ensure consistent protection by default
One area for improvement is the reporting and customization option. The compliance reports are helpful, but having more granular insights or export options would make it even easier to use during audits. Also, support for more third-party integration could improve flexibility. Another improvement I need to see is a smoother setup experience. Some of the initial configuration steps, especially around the organization and permissions, can feel complex. A more guided setup or clear UI explanation would make it easier for teams to adopt quickly. One more improvement would be better alerting options. Right now, we mostly rely on AWS Security Hub or CloudWatch for detailed alerts. Having more built-in, real-time notification directly from AWS Firewall Manager would make it easier to monitor policy violations without extra setup.
Vulnerability control saves audit costs and reduces expenses for organizations
Tufin Orchestration Suite is not commonly used in Thailand due to a lack of local support, and many customers are switching to AlgoSec or other vendors. The analytics features of Tufin Orchestration Suite are challenging to use and require technical expertise, which is a concern as there is not much knowledge in this field in Thailand. The issue of technical knowledge, especially regarding English language proficiency, is significant for government and some companies, making Tufin Orchestration Suite harder to use.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"My advice for anybody who is considering the AWS Firewall Manager is that it is pretty simple to set up and easy to use."
"Once this solution is set up, we hardly have to touch it."
"After implementing AWS Firewall Manager, we reduced our manual security configuration effort by around sixty to seventy percent as the policies are now centralized, managed, and automatically enforced."
"The most valuable feature is the centrally managed rule. I also like the central orchestration."
"The product is highly reliable."
"We work with compliance monitoring in the product, which is helpful for identifying framework-based misconfigurations, as it can tell you where to deploy firewall policies based on the frameworks."
"From a technical perspective, it is a good product."
"It has centralized cloud firewall management rules. It provides compliance in tracking and reporting."
"SecureChange is the most valuable feature as it shows the difference between policies and proxies that affect performance, such as the router or switches."
"If you're in a large environment, a large enterprise, it's a good tool."
"It can compare policy revisions side by side to see when you've made a change, and what the change is, and it also lists the detail of the objects and policies."
"The solution is very straightforward to use and makes doing our work easy while being very good at helping us clean up rules."
"Before we started using this product, to resolve the network problems, it used to take a week or so, but once we started working with Tufin the problems are resolved in a day or two."
"Policy management and the cartography of the network have been the most valuable features."
"It is an important application for controlling and monitoring firewall rules, and it is useful for making and monitoring the changes."
"I like the fact that Tufin was able to integrate with our firewalls, which include Palo Alto and FortiGate."
 

Cons

"The product could benefit from improvements in the user interface and integration capabilities."
"AWS Firewall Manager could be improved with more granular policy customization for better visibility through enhanced dashboards and reporting."
"This solution is suitable for a small-scale enterprise and may not scale up to a very high volume of traffic or a large number of servers."
"AWS Firewall Manager should be open to manage other third-party appliances as well."
"It needs to be more employee-friendly, and the security management could be more efficient."
"In AWS, there are so many features that many users get confused about what to use and what not to use."
"The areas of improvement are definitely platform resiliency, as we have seen outages on the AWS backbone, and whenever there is an outage on the AWS backbone, it impacts all the services hosted on that region, so we expect regional resiliency."
"Enabling and configuring the logging is not that straightforward."
"So far, our impressions of stability are not very good."
"I would like easier integration with more automation."
"There are at least two things that need improvement. One is the business workflow and the second is the integration with logging solutions."
"We want to have the ability for a ticket requester to add somebody, or to give somebody view rights to their ticket."
"I'd like to say SDN needs to be improved. This is the key and where the revolution in technology is going."
"SecureChange has been a bit of a challenge."
"I would like to see the hardware specifications improved."
"They are sort of at the pilot stage on some of their products. I saw the Orca and Iris products yesterday. My initial impression of these products were that they were good products, but I felt like some of their features overlapped with SecureTrack and SecureChange, which they are already doing. So, I just wondered what direction they're going in? I understand that they are cloud products, but are these security products going to overlap each other's features at some point? This is my initial concern."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"From what I've heard from my colleagues, it appears that the pricing is competitive, which influenced our decision to choose this option."
"The AWS Firewall Manager is a little on the costly side."
"The licensing is on a pay-as-you-go basis and we are billed monthly."
"It is a cost-efficient product."
"I just wrote a purchase order for it. It is a $150,000 a year."
"The licensing costs are around $250,000 to $300,000."
"There is a permanent license for devices, but it's not relative to a device itself. Once you purchase 10 licenses for virtual appliances or virtual context, you can put them into different virtual firewalls, but you can reuse these licenses for other devices if you don't need them for the old ones."
"Price could always be better, but there are always consequences."
"Licensing is on a customer by customer basis."
"I suggest talking with Tufin about the flexibility of the pricing structure."
"We are seeing ROI in terms of having SecureApp."
"I'm saving 20 man-hours a week, so I am seeing some ROI."
