Find out in this report how the two Database Security solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The initial setup was straightforward."
"The ability to track activity including the SQL statements is definitely valuable. I really like how the database is laid out. It's straightforward. I can query the back-end tables. I've made a few of my own email alerts based on the data and the tables. It's accessible."
"The tool can track logins and login failures. I made my own alert so that if there is a certain number of login failures for a server, it emails me. That is really useful. If I want logins to automatically lock out after a certain number of failed attempts, I can know when that happens."
"It has a very user-friendly interface that's very detailed."
"The most valuable features of Imperva SecureSphere Database Security are the user-friendliness, easy-to-use interface compared to competitors, database operations do not need a specialist, and simple to manage for our security team. Additionally, the solution can show all the databases and the level of sensitivity. It can show what is more sensitive or less sensitive."
"Currently, we have audit features for auditing databases, for example, granular auditing, which we really enjoy. We've been using it to check what users do."
"The functionality is very useable and easy to understand."
"A solution which does what other name brand products do for a lower cost."
"It has a lot of different components that cover the needs of our customers."
"The most valuable feature is the automatic reports on new databases, which gives us up-to-date inventory management."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the database security policy."
"What would really a good thing is if you could refer to an external list or table for filtering on, say, certain applications, IP addresses, or host names; or perhaps even combinations of host name and application name."
"There is an agent that collects the data on SQL Server. Sometimes it will stop collecting. I'm not exactly sure what's happening but I have to go in and manually restart the agent. It would be nice if the central collection server could send a request to the agent to restart."
"I submitted a ticket (last year) about archiving/grooming of old records because the GUI functionality was not working. Per their recommendation, I ended up using a command line to do it."
"Its filtration and navigation are not the best."
"The set up is kind of clunky, in my opinion. It's not really intuitive. If they had either a smoother install or better instructions, that would be nice."
"Data encryption. Yeah, Imperva needs to pull up on data encryption and make it a standard feature to allow maybe for tokenization, encryption of data, and things like that."
"I would like to see integration such that there is support for different kinds of environments, such as on-premises versus cloud."
"The solution is expensive."
"It is quite expensive. I would prefer a lower price."
"I'd like to see some sort of solution for storage."
"Improvements can be made in data enrichment and enhancing the GUI (Graphical User Interface) for a better user experience."
"Its reporting can be improved. The reporting feature is currently not good enough for our clients."
"Some cloud versions are not supported by the agent."
