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

"AWS Firewall Manager isn't a separate solution when you create the virtual private cloud (VPC), so you can control the traffic through that security group."
"The most valuable feature is scaling, which allows you to deploy one configuration and scan and deploy it across the network. The automated policy application feature also streamlines security operations."
"It is helpful for our compliance, as the compliance manager manages compliance with leading industry standards such as FedRAMP, which my company complies with, GDPR laws, and ISO 27001."
"Once this solution is set up, we hardly have to touch it."
"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."
"My advice for anybody who is considering the AWS Firewall Manager is that it is pretty simple to set up and easy to use."
"From a technical perspective, it is a good product."
"The clarity around the auditing provides the most value for us."
"The solution is good, and no clients complained about it, therefore, I recommend this solution for people seeking to use it, as they can never go wrong with it."
"The automated reporting on a regular basis is helping us to be compliant with legal requirements."
"The solution is good, and no clients complained about it."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it reduces both the time required and the number of errors when making changes."
"In our current environment, the most valuable feature from Tufin is their Network Map."
"We have a better view of our compliance status."
"Technical Support: Excellent, the support and the post sales service is the best I ever had."
 

Cons

"It needs to be more employee-friendly, and the security management could be more efficient."
"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."
"They could consider organizing and enhancing documentation in a more structured and chronological manner"
"AWS Firewall Manager could be improved with more granular policy customization for better visibility through enhanced dashboards and reporting."
"In AWS, there are so many features that many users get confused about what to use and what not to use."
"Enabling and configuring the logging is not that straightforward."
"For AWS WAF, we have seen cases where it allowed suspicious HTTPS headers even if they carried malicious payloads."
"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."
"We had some issues because of our unique configuration."
"I would like see the workflow process expand out to give us the ability to tie it to other APIs."
"One of the things that I think they're all missing is something that Indeni does where they mount the boxes proactively for us."
"I'd like to see more work done on the topology side."
"It doesn't have cross-vendor support for solutions such as Barracuda."
"The cost is pretty high."
"When we initially had it, it was on a single box, so it was pretty slow."
"I wish there was a read-only admin option. I don't like that you have to be a full admin just to see the Network Topology Map. That option is great out there if you are a user, multi-domain user, etc. However, that piece is very helpful for us, but I also don't want to be handing out admin access to every single person so they can see that network tab."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The AWS Firewall Manager is a little on the costly side."
"It is a cost-efficient product."
"From what I've heard from my colleagues, it appears that the pricing is competitive, which influenced our decision to choose this option."
"The licensing is on a pay-as-you-go basis and we are billed monthly."
"Our evaluation showed that Tufin's features were on par with AlgoSec, but Tufin was the better financial choice."
"It is expensive, but as compared to other players, it's more or less okay. Their pricing is not very transparent. This is my biggest point regarding Tufin. I've never seen a price list or something like that. It's always individual, and in many cases, it's very confusing to know what is the base and what is the price."
"For us, the pricing was six out of ten, with ten being the most expensive and one being the cheapest."
"Tufin reduced the time it takes to solve a problem, which reduces the time of the outage."
"The solution has helped us to reduce the time it takes to make changes. With Tufin, it takes ten to 15 minutes. Before, it was 30 minutes or more."
"We have seen ROI in operational aspects, in terms of how long it takes to resolve incidences which arise."
"Tufin and AlgoSec were pretty much in the competitive price range, but this one provided us better integration into the Check Point environment."
"The price is on the cheaper side."
