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 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."
"The product is highly reliable."
"Also, the strength of the community is invaluable."
"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."
"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."
"Once this solution is set up, we hardly have to touch it."
"My advice for anybody who is considering the AWS Firewall Manager is that it is pretty simple to set up and easy to use."
"We find it to be flexible. If we have a change that needs to be done, it will go ahead and do it for all our devices, regardless of the manufacturer that we have associated with it."
"We really appreciate the change manager; it's one of the most valuable aspects of the solution."
"This solution was a need for our organization to stay compliant and it has helped us in this way."
"Once it is done, the solution runs by itself; exporting, reporting, topology, and changes are all handled by this solution."
"This solution provides a more organized manner for us to track towards compliance for our PCI audits."
"Buy Tufin because it works! I love the product."
"You should definitely be looking at this as in your top-two choices, before even considering any other solutions."
"The biggest value for me is the ease of implementation."
 

Cons

"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."
"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."
"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."
"The product could benefit from improvements in the user interface and integration capabilities."
"AWS Firewall Manager should be open to manage other third-party appliances as well."
"It needs to be more employee-friendly, and the security management could be more efficient."
"They could consider organizing and enhancing documentation in a more structured and chronological manner"
"We had a discussion in the Customer Advisory Board yesterday around use of SecureChange. 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). This would be huge for the customers who are using SecureChange. They said this was one of their issues with it, especially for anything that was going into a regulator's or auditor's hands. The more human readable, the better that it would be, and this would definitely be applicable to our industry. It sounds like they are working on this issue, or they took the feedback, but that would be a big one for us in being able to make the jump to SecureChange."
"I would like to see improved role-based access."
"A single central (master) database does not scale well past 1000 firewalls."
"When it comes to web services, in my experience, Tomcat has always gone down; after a certain amount of load it breaks down and we have to get things restored again."
"I would like to see API access into every aspect of Tufin."
"We actually had a key issue, which was a bug, that the development team didn't want to fix. We escalated it, then it got fixed. So, the management level seems very responsive at least, but at a support level, they are just regular support people and not outstanding."
"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."
"In the next release I would like to see better migration in the Cloud because that will allow more visibility in the network."
 

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."
"I believe our cost is more than $100,000 per year."
"Our licensing costs are three million total and then we pay for maintenance, which is an additional cost for three years."
"Our engineers are spending less time on manual processes: 20 to 30 hour plus."
"For us it's around $40,000 or so."
"Price could always be better, but there are always consequences."
"The price of Tufin could be lower."
"Tufin reduced the time it takes to solve a problem, which reduces the time of the outage."
"The solution is more reasonably priced than its competitors."
