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 has centralized cloud firewall management rules. It provides compliance in tracking and reporting."
"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."
"From a technical perspective, it is a good product."
"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 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."
"Also, the strength of the community is invaluable."
"The solution's most valuable features are its security policy and steps for deployment."
"Tufin is a convenient way for us to show and prove what changes were done, when they were done, and by whom they were done."
"You can easily scale the solution if you need to."
"It's given us an easier workflow since we go through the different steps of network validation to make sure that the request coming from the user is technically sound and implementable."
"It’s a pretty good product."
"Firewall automation was one of the biggest concerns we had, and we have largely sorted that out with this tool."
"Tufin has improved my organization with its configuration management. It has tremendously improved the operation's success and has made life easier."
"We can check and analyze the current status of our firewall rules."
 

Cons

"AWS Firewall Manager could be improved with more granular policy customization for better visibility through enhanced dashboards and reporting."
"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."
"They could consider organizing and enhancing documentation in a more structured and chronological manner"
"For AWS WAF, we have seen cases where it allowed suspicious HTTPS headers even if they carried malicious payloads."
"One area for improvement is the reporting and customization option."
"The product could benefit from improvements in the user interface and integration capabilities."
"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."
"Sometimes it hangs when I go to the designer or verification. You can wait, wait, wait and then forget it."
"I wish there was a read-only admin option. I don't like that you have to be a full admin just to see the Network Topology Map. That option is great out there if you are a user, multi-domain user, etc. However, that piece is very helpful for us, but I also don't want to be handing out admin access to every single person so they can see that network tab."
"Their pricing is not very transparent. This is my biggest point regarding Tufin."
"Sometimes, it'll freak out and cause everything else to stay and be unable to get configed, then our Palo Alto products will sort of cease, usually a good majority of them, which is not ideal."
"It's not a very stable product. It doesn't stay up as often as I would like."
"They need to offer more support to vendors, such as Cisco, Checkpoint, Fortinet, and Forcepoint."
"I don't think that it has a stable platform. If there are 20 people and 22 need it, it will not be able to support us in that scenario."
"I’d like to see the application topology developed more."
 

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 AWS Firewall Manager is a little on the costly side."
"It is a cost-efficient product."
"The licensing is on a pay-as-you-go basis and we are billed monthly."
"We are seeing ROI in terms of having SecureApp."
"Because we're quite a large company, the price wasn't too much of a factor for us."
"For us it's around $40,000 or so."
"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."
"This solution helps us reduce the time it takes us to make changes. We're probably saving time by 25%."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"We have seen ROI from the side of operations, and we'll probably get to more of that as time goes on. However it took a while to get to that point."
"I suggest talking with Tufin about the flexibility of the pricing structure."
