RedSeal vs Tufin Orchestration Suite comparison

"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."

"The most valuable features are network mapping and configuration."

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

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

"This solution has helped our clients because it allows them to leverage the tools so that they can actually reduce their overall expenses for the environment."

"We use it to clean up our firewall policies, which gives us better security policy and less junk on the firewalls."

"We use Tufin to clean up our firewall policies because it is so fast. A report about compliance and the clean-up process used to take about one month up before. With Tufin, it takes only one day."

"The policy overview is valuable."

"The reports that this solution provides are very useful."

"The solution is quite scalable."

"It made us look at security policies more holistically."

"We just got done with major audits. Tufin was able to provide information to give back to people, and say, "Hey, this is what I need to do, and what we're doing.""

"One of the areas of concern is the GUI. It is important to our customers that the GUI looks beautiful. It's a Java Client, so you have a Java dependency."

"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."

"There is room for improvement in integrating the OT security part and the private 5G security part in RedSeal."

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

"This solution increases the time it takes to make changes."

"We found some bugs on the software, but we're working with tech support to fix them."

"Tufin Orchestration Suite is not commonly used in Thailand due to a lack of local support, and many customers are switching to AlgoSec or other vendors."

"The key area for improvement is the integration to F5. One of the things that we encountered with another customer is that there were some limitations when we tried to migrate policies from F5 into Tufin."

"Customizing it can be a little tricky, but that depends on your use cases."

"I would like an improved reporting module which can be flexible (custom reports) and allow us to generate our own reports, because the data is already there."

"We need to implement micro-segmentation in our infrastructure, and we are using Cisco ACI. However, we are facing an issue with Tufin, as it does not currently support integration with ACI for micro-segmentation, even though it is advertised as such."

"The firewall management is complex for beginners."

"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."

"Our licensing fees are approximately $100,000 USD yearly."

"Tuffin is expensive, and we have to explain to our customers the benefit for them to purchase. If we explain the benefits in the correct way they do not mind the price. We typically do costing for the customer for three to five years. We make the general total cost of ownership at the beginning of a project for our customers."

"We have seen ROI in operational aspects, in terms of how long it takes to resolve incidences which arise."

"There is no issue with the pricing because we used a VM. That kept the cost low, as compared to an appliance."

"Our licensing costs are pretty low. We were grandfathered in, so we are at about $35,000 per year."

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

"Pricing is quite high. We did compare it with AlgoSec but the pricing is not much different between the two."

"The licensing costs are around $250,000 to $300,000."
