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 product is highly reliable."
"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."
"Overall, it improved our security posture and made audits much easier."
"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 interface is intuitive and it is easy for the users."
"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."
"Once this solution is set up, we hardly have to touch it."
"I don't evaluate other vendors every two weeks, but I've evaluated them before, and I think Tufin is quite a technically-leading solution."
"When it comes to the turnaround of firewall rule requests, it used to take about a week to implement and have the customer test for firewall access, now it can take just one day."
"Before we had Tufin, we had to do firewall policy cleanup and it was pretty painful, but with Tufin, you can generate a report in 20 minutes and start taking action on it right away."
"With this approach, Tufin has become a very powerful tool for us by creating an automatic implementation."
"They've been great, we have a good relationship with them and the product does a lot of things that we want."
"I had been impressed with the depth of capabilities within SecureTrack, particularly, in terms of generating insights for a user and firewall operator. With SecureTrack, I've been impressed with the level of flexibility with workflow design and its ability to generate different work streams and flows through the tool that are customized for our organization processes."
"Before we started using this product, to resolve the network problems, it used to take a week or so, but once we started working with Tufin the problems are resolved in a day or two."
"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."
 

Cons

"Enabling and configuring the logging is not that straightforward."
"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."
"For AWS WAF, we have seen cases where it allowed suspicious HTTPS headers even if they carried malicious payloads."
"AWS Firewall Manager should be open to manage other third-party appliances as well."
"The system should be more customizable."
"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."
"They could consider organizing and enhancing documentation in a more structured and chronological manner"
"We like the change impact analysis capabilities quite a bit. The only weakness is that the reporting is a bit clunky. We would like to have the reporting be better."
"The scalability is bad."
"I would like the ability to export information in other formats including PDF, HTML, or Excel."
"It seems stable. We've had problems always with the same box, which is our SecureTrack primary. We are probably on our seventh one."
"A limitation right now for compressed firewalls is the limited ability to see above a site level in terms of the Topology Mapping in the policy display. While Tufin's actively working on a solution, or at least they have this in the queue, from being able to view this on a higher level and how all of our site networks are connected, this ability would be useful, as we expect to have these compressed firewalls in place for quite some time."
"The product should integrate with the UTM features."
"The initial setup of Tufin was complex. We had some issues with the architecture."
"I would like to see the hardware specifications improved."
 

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 licensing is on a pay-as-you-go basis and we are billed monthly."
"The AWS Firewall Manager is a little on the costly side."
"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."
"Licensing is on a customer by customer basis."
"For us it's around $40,000 or so."
"I suggest talking with Tufin about the flexibility of the pricing structure."
"The additional piece, which we are buying and doesn't include our other solution, is close to 300,000."
"Price could always be better, but there are always consequences."
"We've seen a decrease of about 50 percent in the overall time it takes to complete a firewall change."
"For us, the pricing was six out of ten, with ten being the most expensive and one being the cheapest."
