Helps detect attacks in real-time, and is stable, but the cloud scrubbing capabilities need improvement
Radware DefensePro can defend against Layer 3 and Layer 4 DDoS attacks but it is not capable of protecting against Layer 7 attacks. Radware DefensePro suffers from a high false positive rate of 25 percent and occasionally blocks legitimate traffic, requiring manual unblocking. Additionally, it has been known to miss some threats. We have not seen a reduction in downtime associated with attacks by using DefensePro. Radware DefensePro needs to improve its cloud scrubbing capabilities. We have discontinued their cloud services due to poor performance. The inability to access local technical support during our business hours poses a significant inconvenience. This necessitates extra devices for continuous operation until we can speak to their support. We would appreciate the availability of a team within our time zone for optimal service.

"This solution is extremely scalable and has the highest level throughput (100G) which complies with Telco deployment."
"It's very good at protecting users from DDoS attacks. It's the leader in this domain."
"The important features include automated protection and defense against many attacks, it's important that our networks are protected in the Radware cloud."

Cons

"The solution should add an enhanced dashboard to make it easy to navigate."
"There's room for improvement in the clarity of the feedback provided by the command service in the CLI."
"APSolute Vision needs to be more granular so that it's possible to get real-time information."
"I would like to see more focus on layer seven protection."
"The inability to access local technical support during our business hours poses a significant inconvenience."
"It would be ideal if they could expand protocol support to cover emerging communication standards and ensure comprehensive protection against diverse attack vectors."
"The APSolute Vision feature needs improvement."
"The solution needs a bit more functionality. It would be good if DefensePro could have anti-bot functionalities in order to stop bots like web scrapers from getting onto our customers’ network."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Indusface AppTrana is an affordable and cost-effective solution."
"The product's pricing is a good value."
"Radware DefensePro is a bit on the expensive side."
