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.

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

Pros

"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."
"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 automation because it is saving a lot of work, time, and effort required to do all of our manual work. The change impact analysis is pretty good, and with the automation, it takes care of a lot of things which we would be doing manually."
"It is a great solution. If you have all the devices and firewalls in place, the amount of details that you get along with the network topology is very good."
"The filtering of lots of criteria is very valuable."
"Tufin allows our say junior guys to learn how to view policies. It gives them a tool that will help them consolidate and optimize."
"The policy overview is valuable."
"It provides a comprehensive overview of what our network looks like in terms of what is allowed and what is not, then how the traffic' is flowing with the Network Topology Map."
"We were hit by the NotPetya attack. Therefore, our whole company and all its sites were down for several months. So, you don't have an attack like that and not need something like Tufin. Other companies can prevent these attacks, or at least slow them down, by having this type of a tool. We will never go back."
"Tufin has improved my organization with its configuration management. It has tremendously improved the operation's success and has made life easier."
 

Cons

"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."
"It would be awesome if the product could monitor services for applications."
"The solution lacks a lot of features that other products have in the marketplace."
"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."
"My worry with Tufin is that it cannot connect to Fortinet, which is what I want to do."
"We like the change impact analysis capabilities quite a bit. The only weakness is that the reporting is a bit clunky. We would like to have the reporting be better."
"The initial setup was complex. We have a big environment which contributed to the setup's complexity."
"One feature that is missing is the ability to assign a step in the workflow to a specific user at a specific time, based on how the previous steps of the workflow have been handled."
"There's a need for an improved network map."
"I would also like to see them do more cloud integration within the Tufin Orchestration Suite, not within a SaaS solution."
"The interface is like a 1990s kind of thing. It's a little ugly. There are many things that you cannot tweak, little things like the column width and how you display the information. You end up exporting everything to an Excel file and doing your work there."
"I would like a better reporting feature and automatic alerting based upon rule changes."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"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."
"Needs to work on pricing."
"Pricing played a big part here... The customer had evaluated other products but, due to price as well as support, they chose Tufin."
"Because we're quite a large company, the price wasn't too much of a factor for us."
"Its price is reasonable, but it could be lower. It has been cost-effective for us. We have a contract for three years."
"The solution is more reasonably priced than its competitors."
"It's not that expensive, except for Security Groups. For us, just the Security Groups were about half of the total price. The total was about €500,000 a year, of which €200,000 was for Security Groups."
"Pricing is quite high. We did compare it with AlgoSec but the pricing is not much different between the two."
"The additional piece, which we are buying and doesn't include our other solution, is close to 300,000."
"I just wrote a purchase order for it. It is a $150,000 a year."
