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

"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."
"Also, the strength of the community is invaluable."
"My advice for anybody who is considering the AWS Firewall Manager is that it is pretty simple to set up and easy to use."
"Overall, it improved our security posture and made audits much easier."
"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."
"It has centralized cloud firewall management rules. It provides compliance in tracking and reporting."
"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."
"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."
"Once you start using it, you will see the potential."
"For us it works, it's a great solution, but that's not to say that there isn't a better one out there."
"The firewall remediation and compliance pieces are the most valuable features."
"The solution has helped us reduce the time it takes us to make changes from weeks to days, and engineers are spending less time on manual processes by about 15 to 20 percent."
"We're using SecureTrack, and the most valuable feature for us is the accurate reporting it provides."
"The most valuable feature is the ability it gives us to browse our entire infrastructure and easily find which rules match our policies."
"I'd definitely say go with Tufin as it's a brilliant solution."
"This solution definitely helps to reduce the time it takes to make changes."
 

Cons

"They could consider organizing and enhancing documentation in a more structured and chronological manner"
"For AWS WAF, we have seen cases where it allowed suspicious HTTPS headers even if they carried malicious payloads."
"I would like to see AWS add some UTM features to the firewall. It would also be great if AWS Firewall had native IPS/IDS. They have the separate IPS/IDS, GuardDuty."
"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 could be improved with more granular policy customization for better visibility through enhanced dashboards and reporting."
"It needs to be more employee-friendly, and the security management could be more efficient."
"One area for improvement is the reporting and customization option."
"AWS Firewall Manager should be open to manage other third-party appliances as well."
"It's reaching the edge of stability since we're putting a very strong demand on it."
"The current version is slow. I deal with a lot of large environments, which is mostly what Tufin has."
"I don't get the full visibility. We have had challenges implementing the change workflow process."
"Some of the challenges we have include getting the reports and the tools to look at our specific environment."
"The solution does not have automation with other Firewalls and it should be included."
"Technical support for this solution is the worst. I would give it a zero ranking."
"I would like a better reporting feature and automatic alerting based upon rule changes."
"I come more from the WAN space as opposed to the security space, so I would obviously like to see Tufin integrate with Cisco routers. There's room for more integrations with other products."
 

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 licensing is on a pay-as-you-go basis and we are billed monthly."
"It is a cost-efficient product."
"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."
"Our engineers are spending less time on manual processes: 20 to 30 hour plus."
"For us, the pricing was six out of ten, with ten being the most expensive and one being the cheapest."
"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."
"Our evaluation showed that Tufin's features were on par with AlgoSec, but Tufin was the better financial choice."
"I believe our cost is more than $100,000 per year."
"Price could always be better, but there are always consequences."
"Our licensing costs are pretty low. We were grandfathered in, so we are at about $35,000 per year."
