RedSeal vs Tufin Orchestration Suite comparison

"Overall, I am very happy with the way the product is working."

"This is the only solution in the world that gives you a digital resilience score."

"RedSeal helps you prioritize and allocate your scarce human and capital resources where they have the biggest impact to protect your most-valuable digital assets."

"The most valuable feature of the product to me is being able to ask what-if questions about traffic flows, which is a great ability to have for security and incident response."

"RedSeal integrates the network and gives us a visual or graphical overview of our network; if an organization is geographically dispersed, for instance, with one office in Canada and one office in the Philippines, the whole network, including all devices, is integrated into RedSeal, and you can see from where the traffic is going in and out."

"If you want to understand your network environment as it relates to configuration issues, host/node vulnerabilities and firewall configurations, then I highly recommend that RedSeal be considered."

"This solution is amazing! The most important part is the way it gives access information to the entire infrastructure, the network most importantly."

"RedSeal has different modules, such as the Analyzer module, which can be leveraged."

"One of the biggest quick wins that we had with Tufin was cleaning up our firewall policies and rules, and we cleaned out a lot of rules which helped our devices, longevity-wise, as well as speed-wise."

"You can easily scale the solution if you need to."

"Technical support has been good."

"The most valuable feature is being able to customize your own clarity to that aspect of change management, having better visibility of what is going on, and from what I have seen, it's user-friendly."

"For our clientele, this solution has, without question, saved them time when it comes to making changes."

"It has helped us to meet our compliance mandates. We have some requirements that we need to provide more visibility on the risk levels of our firewall base and Tufin helped us with that requirement."

"I'd definitely say go with Tufin as it's a brilliant solution."

"On the technical side, the Tufin solution was very helpful for my team, as it would save them time by allowing them to check all the firewall policies in one console, for both Palo Alto and FortiGate, at the same time."

"There is room for improvement regarding customization and automation of reports."

"The network mapping/visualization could be improved significantly."

"Initially their level one support was very frustrating to work with."

"The dashboard should be improved to make correlating data easier to do."

"Integration with other security tools. Have the ability to create custom reports: Currently, within RedSeal you only have the option to run the canned reports."

"Although we are talking about a very robust platform, I would like to see the Windows compatible VM version come back."

"Sometimes, it required us to refresh the configuration. When we integrated any of the configurations into the device, sometimes, it could not detect the exact picture of that device. So, we had to reset the device to see that if it was giving true-positive results or false-positive results. In some cases, we were not able to get true-positive results. There was some kind of bug in that version. Its interface is not user-friendly and needs to be improved. It takes time to understand the interface and various options. Skybox has quite a user-friendly interface. They could provide a feature for compliance audit policy if it is already not there. A compliance audit policy ensures that all configurations are based on the best practices standards, such as CIS benchmarks standard or other similar standards. It provides visibility about whether your device configuration is based on best practices or not. Usually, such a feature is provided by other solutions such as Meteor or Tenable Nessus."

"Its interface is not user-friendly and needs to be improved."

"There are at least two things that need improvement. One is the business workflow and the second is the integration with logging solutions."

"There are some missing features we'd like to see them add in the future."

"The cost of this solution should be improved."

"Well there's parts of the product that we can't use, the SecureChange, the network address translation, and users as it's all very difficult, so we've never managed to use it for that."

"I would like a better reporting feature and automatic alerting based upon rule changes."

"It's still challenging in some cases to get it integrated with other systems."

"They've got such a large number of APIs, and it is so easy to use their APIs. Effectively, they allow us to use it with anything. The only way to improve it more is by offering support for implementing their APIs into certain hardware or software that we might use. They can provide support for implementing APIs."

"The problems we have with the F5 is what brings the rating down, because that was a big part of the reason we purchased it."

"The pricing is based on the number of endpoints and devices, and we have seen it range from mid-five figures to low six figures."

"Pricing played a big part here... The customer had evaluated other products but, due to price as well as support, they chose Tufin."

"The pricing is reasonable."

"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."

"Because we're quite a large company, the price wasn't too much of a factor for us."

"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."

"For us, the pricing was six out of ten, with ten being the most expensive and one being the cheapest."

"The solution has helped us to reduce the time it takes to make changes. With Tufin, it takes ten to 15 minutes. Before, it was 30 minutes or more."

"I just wrote a purchase order for it. It is a $150,000 a year."
