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

"It has centralized cloud firewall management rules. It provides compliance in tracking and reporting."
"The product is highly reliable."
"Also, the strength of the community is invaluable."
"Overall, it improved our security posture and made audits much easier."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"Visibility is its largest and most valuable feature. You can see everything or all the devices on the network for each customer. It provides you a larger view of what might be wrong with the network and how you can improve it with firewall rules, etc. If you are talking about secure change, being able to automate the entire change process is pretty much the winner for us. It is going to really reduce the time that it takes for us to do changes, and we can just go out and get more customers."
"It's a great product."
"The biggest benefit for us was the time frame to complete a ticket, which went from approximately a week and a half to two weeks down to about three days."
"I don't think that we were ever slow, but we can now say that changes are completed within twenty-four hours."
"From an operational excellence, it's huge for us."
"You can easily scale the solution if you need to."
"SecureChange Workflow: It is Firewall Admin Robot, which handles the ticket right from receiving until the implementing process with documenting all the approvals."
"It is very easy to use. We can get results back quickly."
 

Cons

"Enabling and configuring the logging is not that straightforward."
"The system should be more customizable."
"AWS Firewall Manager should be open to manage other third-party appliances as well."
"One area for improvement is the reporting and customization option."
"For AWS WAF, we have seen cases where it allowed suspicious HTTPS headers even if they carried malicious payloads."
"The product could benefit from improvements in the user interface and integration capabilities."
"They could consider organizing and enhancing documentation in a more structured and chronological manner"
"In AWS, there are so many features that many users get confused about what to use and what not to use."
"At least in our environment, the dynamic learning of the topology needs improvement."
"More integrations is something that I would like to see in the future."
"I'd like to see automation of a number of steps."
"I would like to see the hardware specifications improved."
"It would be great to add a link to Visio to create shapes directly from Tufin, as it has the configuration."
"Their pricing can be better. It is not very transparent."
"One of the areas that I've had challenges with is making complicated reports."
"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."
 

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."
"It is a cost-efficient product."
"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."
"While licensing varies greatly, it is about $50,000 a year."
"If you don't buy their premium support, their technical support is not great and you can only call during daytime hours. So, we ended up purchasing their premium support."
"Our licensing fees are more than $100,000 USD per year."
"Licensing is available in both perpetual and subscription models, and it appears to be good for our scalable environments."
"We have seen ROI just in the time savings and knowledge. Knowledge is power. Having the solution do it automatically for you without you doing the work is huge. If you are spending $50,000 a year, it could have cost you a $100,000 in man-hours without it, especially if you are working with a team.."
"Tuffin is expensive, and we have to explain to our customers the benefit for them to purchase. If we explain the benefits in the correct way they do not mind the price. We typically do costing for the customer for three to five years. We make the general total cost of ownership at the beginning of a project for our customers."
"This solution helps us reduce the time it takes us to make changes. We're probably saving time by 25%."
"There is no issue with the pricing because we used a VM. That kept the cost low, as compared to an appliance."
