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

"Once this solution is set up, we hardly have to touch it."
"The interface is intuitive and it is easy for the users."
"From a technical perspective, it is a good product."
"It has centralized cloud firewall management rules. It provides compliance in tracking and reporting."
"My advice for anybody who is considering the AWS Firewall Manager is that it is pretty simple to set up and easy to use."
"The most valuable feature is the centrally managed rule. I also like the central orchestration."
"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."
"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."
"Using this solution saves us time and money."
"You should definitely be looking at this as in your top-two choices, before even considering any other solutions."
"What I like most is the end to end view which is quite important for supporting the design teams."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the Interactive Map."
"Tufin seems like a high quality product from a company that cares."
"We just got done with major audits. Tufin was able to provide information to give back to people, and say, "Hey, this is what I need to do, and what we're doing.""
"The solution is good, and no clients complained about it, therefore, I recommend this solution for people seeking to use it, as they can never go wrong with it."
"Technical support has been good."
 

Cons

"They could consider organizing and enhancing documentation in a more structured and chronological manner"
"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."
"In AWS, there are so many features that many users get confused about what to use and what not to use."
"AWS Firewall Manager could be improved with more granular policy customization for better visibility through enhanced dashboards and reporting."
"AWS Firewall Manager should be open to manage other third-party appliances as well."
"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."
"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."
"The policy browser has had trouble working. We have experienced bugs."
"I think they can improve the speed, although our speed issues might not be related to Tufin."
"It took a long time just to try to gather the information. I would like Tufin to be faster."
"One thing it's not currently able to do is remove rules."
"The options for certain things are pretty rigid, so they need to be more customizable."
"I come more from the WAN space as opposed to the security space, so I would obviously like to see Tufin integrate with Cisco routers. There's room for more integrations with other products."
"With scalability, we are going to run into some issues."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"It is a cost-efficient product."
"From what I've heard from my colleagues, it appears that the pricing is competitive, which influenced our decision to choose this option."
"We've seen a decrease of about 50 percent in the overall time it takes to complete a firewall change."
"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 available in both perpetual and subscription models, and it appears to be good for our scalable environments."
"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."
"For us, the pricing was six out of ten, with ten being the most expensive and one being the cheapest."
"We are seeing ROI in terms of having SecureApp."
"There are ways to deploy the license to different types of firewall. However, if we decide to change the physical brand of the firewall, we need to go back to Tufin and modify the licensing. This is a hassle."
"I just wrote a purchase order for it. It is a $150,000 a year."
