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 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."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"The time that we require to makes changes has been reduced from weeks to days."
"We are very happy and it's a good product."
"For any customer who wants a solution that is quick to set up and just works, Tufin's the way to go."
"The reporting simplifies the ability to report towards the business about how our rules are being used so we can make sure the security is always optimally maintained."
"It provides a real-time sense of how the policies are configured and whether there are any shadow rules. Another great thing is that it provides greater reporting based on how the rules have been set up."
"SecureChange makes our lives easier with automation."
"It made us look at security policies more holistically."
"We use it to clean up our firewall policies, which gives us better security policy and less junk on the firewalls."
 

Cons

"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."
"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."
"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"
"The product could benefit from improvements in the user interface and integration capabilities."
"There's a need for an improved network map."
"They need to offer more support to vendors, such as Cisco, Checkpoint, Fortinet, and Forcepoint."
"The capabilities Tufin has for Check Point products are excellent. It'd be nice to get the same level of features that it does for Check Point up to par with Cisco, Palo Alto, and so on."
"We need another way to use Tufin without the administration rights."
"The initial setup seemed like it required a lot of effort."
"It would be better if they modernized the web GUI. The web interface GUI is simple and not complicated, but it's also too old."
"The options for certain things are pretty rigid, so they need to be more customizable."
"The problems we have with the F5 is what brings the rating down, because that was a big part of the reason we purchased it."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing is on a pay-as-you-go basis and we are billed monthly."
"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 costs are around $250,000 to $300,000."
"I had a bad experience with the financial department, and the price is too high. The software does work and does the job. The solution is worth the money. If I had a different partner to implement the solution, it would have been worth the price."
"Licensing is on a customer by customer basis."
"Tufin reduced the time it takes to solve a problem, which reduces the time of the outage."
"Tufin and AlgoSec were pretty much in the competitive price range, but this one provided us better integration into the Check Point environment."
"For us, the pricing was six out of ten, with ten being the most expensive and one being the cheapest."
"It's not that expensive, except for Security Groups. For us, just the Security Groups were about half of the total price. The total was about €500,000 a year, of which €200,000 was for Security Groups."
"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."
