Mostafiz Miah - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers good integration features and is user-friendly
What is happening in sometimes, if any issues found in the tool, ManageEngine takes time to provide a proper fix, but it does not happen most of the time. If there is a need to get some customized report or feature, ManageEngine Firewall Analyzer team takes some time. The aforementioned area can be considered for improvement. From a product point of view, the tool is good, user-friendly, and offers easy installation and easy configuration.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Firewall Analyzer is easy to work with."
"Firewall Analyzer helps our organization to fulfill the compliance requirement as per ISO 27001, managing the network security effectively."
"Overall the solution does a good job."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is a very user-friendly tool compared to other solutions."
"The most valuable features of the ManageEngine Firewall Analyzer are the monitoring of the full management of the network elements and the inventory of the infrastructure."
"I found the reporting to be useful because not only can I go back months, but it lists the individual URLs and the time that a particular person visited."
"It has allowed us to be more efficient in our processing of firewall requests."
"It's user-friendly. It's easy to understand menus on the web GUI. That's a good feature for us. I can say that it's doing what it's supposed to do. It also integrates well with other products like Check Point."
"Tufin Orchestration Suite is a good tool that makes firewall policies faster to implement from a central point, and its support is good."
"We use Tufin to clean up our firewall policies. It benefits us, because you can run a query for whatever your cleanup criteria is, e.g., "Has it been hit in 90 days?" It displays the list, then you can see the rules right there. If you want to get rid of it (or highlight it), then it creates a ticket that goes ahead and flags them all as disabled. While you can delete them, we always disable first. Then, we have a strip that comes back, and if it's been disabled for 90 days, then the system will remove them."
"The designer gives the ability to know where to add a rule, or if the rule is already in place."
"We can check and analyze the current status of our firewall rules."
"The reporting on offer is very good. Tufin makes nice reports."
"The most valuable feature is the compliance check and the recommendations that it makes."
 

Cons

"The solution lacks a lot of features that other products have in the marketplace."
"ManageEngine Firewall Analyzer can improve by having better monitoring of all features from firewalls. We are using Kibana in order to monitor parts that this solution does not record. For example, having more correlation and proactive monitoring in some activity or scenario."
"If there is a need to get some customized report or anything, ManageEngine Firewall Analyzer takes some time."
"The stability is so-so. There are always memory issues, but the solution is working great apart from that."
"It would be awesome if the product could monitor services for applications."
"I would like to simplify the reports, and maybe have another view besides the charts. Possibly they could be more graphical."
"The policy browser has had trouble working. We have experienced bugs."
"There were some hiccups here and there with the initial setup."
"I would like a better reporting feature and automatic alerting based upon rule changes."
"USP does not support VPNs, which is a big thing for us, so we haven't been able to utilize it."
"Currently, we are able to monitor access rules and the operating system of a firewall. It would be great if we can also monitor the configuration of the firewall through Tufin."
"While Tufin is suitable for small businesses, issues can arise in larger enterprises, particularly concerning policy-based forwarding and NAT traffic."
"The pricing should be reviewed, as it is a little too high."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"ManageEngine Firewall Analyzer is less expensive than some of their competitors, such as Cisco. The price is one of the reasons why we use ManageEngine Firewall Analyzer."
"I know that the price of the products is flexible. There have been different types of products, like professional and enterprise-based ones, and depending on the requirements, customers can choose their products."
"Needs to work on pricing."
"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."
"For us, the pricing was six out of ten, with ten being the most expensive and one being the cheapest."
"This solution helps us reduce the time it takes us to make changes. We're probably saving time by 25%."
"The licensing costs are a significant amount of money."
"It's quite an expensive solution."
"We haven't purchased the license yet for SecureChange. We do have plans to buy it next year."
"I had a bad experience with the financial department, and the price is too high. The software does work and does the job. The solution is worth the money. If I had a different partner to implement the solution, it would have been worth the price."
"There is no issue with the pricing because we used a VM. That kept the cost low, as compared to an appliance."
