Executive SummaryUpdated on Jun 3, 2026

Tufin Orchestration Suite and AWS Firewall Manager compete in the network security domain. Tufin stands out with its robust feature set and scalability, while AWS Firewall Manager excels in centralized policy management and seamless integration with AWS services.

Features: Tufin Orchestration Suite provides capabilities like change automation, policy management, and application awareness, offering significant improvements in rule management and compliance. AWS Firewall Manager excels in centralized policy management and automatic enforcement of policies across multiple accounts, integrating smoothly with AWS services like WAF and Shield, offering compliance monitoring and auto-remediation features.

Room for Improvement: Tufin needs better third-party integrations, improved reporting, enhanced topology handling, and a more simplified licensing model. AWS Firewall Manager could benefit from a simplified interface, better logging capabilities, and more granular compliance reporting, and third-party integration options to become more accessible and user-friendly.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Tufin Orchestration Suite supports on-premises and hybrid cloud deployments, with mixed reviews on technical support due to slow escalation but praised collaboration with Israeli R&D teams. AWS Firewall Manager offers effective support, though it requires better documentation of its complex service ecosystem and is mainly deployed in public and hybrid clouds.

Pricing and ROI: Tufin Orchestration Suite is seen as expensive due to complex licensing, resulting in varied user opinions on cost-effectiveness, though its features drive significant ROI. AWS Firewall Manager is viewed as cost-effective with its pay-as-you-go model, integrated into AWS billing, providing good value through automation and security benefits, despite broader AWS licensing costs.

Cloud Option Engineer at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees

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.

Works

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

"Overall, it improved our security posture and made audits much easier."

"My advice for anybody who is considering the AWS Firewall Manager is that it is pretty simple to set up and easy to use."

"The most valuable feature is the centrally managed rule. I also like the central orchestration."

"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."

"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."

"Also, the strength of the community is invaluable."

"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."

"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."

More AWS Firewall Manager pros

"I like the policy topology map, which allows us to visualize the picture of the security policy of the whole organization."

"One of the things that came up this week was the ability to decommission a server, which we thought was interesting. We had a workshop recently that talked about all the things that need to be thought about when managing firewalls. People said, "A lot of times, things get forgotten when you are decommissioning a server." E.g., making sure rules are taken away and taking out the rule set. The fact that there is an automated workload for that can be helpful."

"The ability to compare the old policy and the new policies is real handy."

"The most valuable feature of Tufin is rule analysis."

"The most valuable feature is the ability it gives us to browse our entire infrastructure and easily find which rules match our policies."

"We have had no performance issues."

"It’s the fact that before Tufin it wasn’t possible to manage firewall changes; we used emails, and now different departments can actually intervene at the same time on the same workflow and accelerate the job."

"Comparing the rules and policy browser is valuable to me. It gives me the ability to pull running configs and be able to analyze them without having to go directly into the firewall."

More Tufin Orchestration Suite pros

Cons

"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"

"One area for improvement is the reporting and customization option."

"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."

"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."

"It needs to be more employee-friendly, and the security management could be more efficient."

More AWS Firewall Manager cons

"I would like to see better report integration in this solution."

"There is room for improvement in the speed of Tufin. It is using so many of my VM resources and yet it is still a bit slow... Even though we are allocating 130 gigs of RAM, we still have to wait for a few minutes for a single report to be generated. Otherwise it would be a perfect tool."

"I work on the network and security sides. The network visibility side needs improvement."

"The policy browser has had trouble working. We have experienced bugs."

"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."

"The only issue we have had is that we have been working a long time, from the build and configuration, and we still have one issue that our Palo Alto devices are still not reporting correctly to Tufin and that needs to be resolved."

"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."

"For implementing the rules of SecureChange, and trying to implement it with all of the software we have on our side, change management, and workflow management, we need better integration with our existing tools that will make these changes a lot faster."

More Tufin Orchestration Suite cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing is on a pay-as-you-go basis and we are billed monthly."

"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."

"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."

"It's quite an expensive solution."

"Because we're quite a large company, the price wasn't too much of a factor for us."

"Licensing is available in both perpetual and subscription models, and it appears to be good for our scalable environments."

"We did look at less expensive solutions than Tufin, but being a corporation, this solution made sense."

"The solution is more reasonably priced than its competitors."

"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."

"This solution helped us to reduce the time it takes to make changes. We used to spend up to an hour to do a change, and now, it's around five minutes."
