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."
"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."
"The product is highly reliable."
"My advice for anybody who is considering the AWS Firewall Manager is that it is pretty simple to set up and easy to use."
"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."
"Also, the strength of the community is invaluable."
"Overall, it improved our security posture and made audits much easier."
"Based on looking at some of the other products out there, Tufin is definitely the leader of the pack."
"One is that from the portal people are able to request access, and it is going to be able to stage the policy, add the rules or objects or whatever is needed for us so that all we need to do is push the policy at the time."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it reduces both the time required and the number of errors when making changes."
"The technical support is pretty good."
"This solution provides a more organized manner for us to track towards compliance for our PCI audits."
"This solution has helped reduce the time it takes us to make changes; previously, it was taking up to seven days, and now, unless there is an issue with the request, we usually have it done in a day."
"It’s a pretty good product."
"The automation because it is saving a lot of work, time, and effort required to do all of our manual work. The change impact analysis is pretty good, and with the automation, it takes care of a lot of things which we would be doing manually."
 

Cons

"AWS Firewall Manager should be open to manage other third-party appliances as well."
"The product could benefit from improvements in the user interface and integration capabilities."
"One area for improvement is the reporting and customization option."
"Enabling and configuring the logging is not that straightforward."
"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"
"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."
"Currently, we have to get different data from different sections of the site. It would be nice if it was all combined into one."
"My only complaint is that I would like to be able to export data to different formats."
"Its price is reasonable, but it could be lower. It could have a more effective approach for creating and changing rules. It could provide advice or suggestions for a better understanding of rules and changing the rules. There should be suggestions for the rules that need to be changed to make them less risky."
"Technical support for this solution is the worst. I would give it a zero ranking."
"We found some bugs on the software, but we're working with tech support to fix them."
"We actually had a key issue, which was a bug, that the development team didn't want to fix."
"My worry with Tufin is that it cannot connect to Fortinet, which is what I want to do."
"I work on the network and security sides. The network visibility side needs improvement."
 

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."
"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."
"Because we're quite a large company, the price wasn't too much of a factor for us."
"We have seen ROI in operational aspects, in terms of how long it takes to resolve incidences which arise."
"There is no issue with the pricing because we used a VM. That kept the cost low, as compared to an appliance."
"I'm saving 20 man-hours a week, so I am seeing some ROI."
"I believe our cost is more than $100,000 per year."
"The additional piece, which we are buying and doesn't include our other solution, is close to 300,000."
"The seller of Tufin, when I wanted the solution, was very flexible because the cost on the lease was very high in Latin America. So, he was able to reduce the cost."
