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."
"The product is highly reliable."
"It has centralized cloud firewall management rules. It provides compliance in tracking and reporting."
"The interface is intuitive and it is easy for the users."
"My advice for anybody who is considering the AWS Firewall Manager is that it is pretty simple to set up and easy to use."
"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."
"From a technical perspective, it is a good product."
"It works well, giving a nice process flow for the end user to submit a request, have governance check it, and support multiple workflows for different areas of the company and processes."
"Just buy it."
"The solution is stable, it doesn't have bugs or glitches, it doesn't crash or freeze, and it is reliable."
"They've been great, we have a good relationship with them and the product does a lot of things that we want."
"The visibility is very good. We have managers who are overseeing it, and they are approving things through it."
"Its ability to detect changes within our firewall."
"We compared Tufin to AlgoSec, and one of the reasons we picked Tufin was the responsiveness of the people we were working with; they understood the company and our relationship, and we felt that it would be easier to have the ear of the company if we needed customization."
"It offers automation capabilities that are very helpful, especially for network security orchestration and applying policies."
 

Cons

"The product could benefit from improvements in the user interface and integration capabilities."
"In AWS, there are so many features that many users get confused about what to use and what not to use."
"AWS Firewall Manager could be improved with more granular policy customization for better visibility through enhanced dashboards and reporting."
"Enabling and configuring the logging is not that straightforward."
"One area for improvement is the reporting and customization option."
"AWS Firewall Manager should be open to manage other third-party appliances as well."
"The system should be more customizable."
"For AWS WAF, we have seen cases where it allowed suspicious HTTPS headers even if they carried malicious payloads."
"We would like Tufin to have interoperability with Juniper products, along with official support."
"When we make changes, we need to know exactly what's going on between each firewall and why a rule may pass or not pass between each."
"We would like to have an opportunity for an engineer to choose if you want to make or take the policy which has been suggested by the designer functionality, making it more human readable or less human readable (more or less granular)."
"The change workflow process is flexible and customizable to some extent, but there is room for improvement. In some cases, we've found it difficult to get the exact thing which we were looking for. Then, we end up having to go and do the thing manually."
"There are pros and cons to the workflow. You cannot customize it fully and there are some limitations. You cannot create a pure object, a firewall, IP, or service (single layer) object. You can only create a firewall object group. That is one of the challenges."
"Currently, we are able to monitor access rules and the operating system of a firewall. It would be great if we can also monitor the configuration of the firewall through Tufin."
"The key area for improvement is the integration to F5. One of the things that we encountered with another customer is that there were some limitations when we tried to migrate policies from F5 into Tufin."
"There were some hiccups here and there with the initial setup, but we used Tufin's support to assist us with that."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The AWS Firewall Manager is a little on the costly side."
"From what I've heard from my colleagues, it appears that the pricing is competitive, which influenced our decision to choose this option."
"It is a cost-efficient product."
"The licensing is on a pay-as-you-go basis and we are billed monthly."
"The price of Tufin could be lower."
"We have seen ROI from the side of operations, and we'll probably get to more of that as time goes on. However it took a while to get to that point."
"The seller of Tufin, when I wanted the solution, was very flexible because the cost on the lease was very high in Latin America. So, he was able to reduce the cost."
"We haven't purchased the license yet for SecureChange. We do have plans to buy it next year."
"Our licensing costs are three million total and then we pay for maintenance, which is an additional cost for three years."
"The price is on the cheaper side."
"The solution is more reasonably priced than its competitors."
"Tufin reduced the time it takes to solve a problem, which reduces the time of the outage."
