From the features perspective and functionality-wise, there are areas of Radware DDoS that I would like to see improved or enhanced in the future. Version upgrades are being provided, but they should communicate with clients about these new features being available so clients can test them and deploy them on the disaster recovery system before moving to the live segment. There should be a test report that will provide confidence that the version is stable and everything will work properly. Last time we faced an issue with a version upgrade, and we faced extensive troubleshooting with littile bit more time in the troubleshooting process. It turned out to be a small issue that was resolved by the engineering team. I would like to see improved support from Radware DDoS. Sometimes in support, we have to log the call with their support partners rather than Radware. After ten years of experience, we know exactly what the issue is, and we understand that it cannot be handled by their support channel or partner level. Radware team always asks us to go through the partners, but sometimes we have found that the issue cannot be handled by the partners. After the partners fail to resolve the issue, it goes to the Radware team. At that time, one to two days of required timeline gets increased by one to two days. If Radware came into immediate action and resolved the issue rather than relying on their service partners, it would be better. After ten years, we have the knowledge of troubleshooting, and we understand that the issues we are facing with Radware can only be resolved by their team. However, due to their policy, they insist we move through the partner first, and only after the partner fails do they escalate to Radware. During that troubleshooting period of twenty-four to forty-eight hours, we remain in an unresolved state with the reported issue.

Sitelock may perform a useful service, but be wary of giving them your credit card information. When you sign on for the paid service, Sitelock: * Hides (makes it difficult to find) that they default the auto-renew (you can't sign up without agreeing to have them automatically bill your credit card every year). * Hides (makes it difficult to find) how to stop auto-renew: * You can't just stop auto-renew from your billing panel, the way you can with reputable businesses. * You have to hunt their website for a link (in extremely small font) to the page which contains instructions for cancelling. * When you get to that page, turns out it's the 5000+ word "Terms of Service" document, which you have to scour to find a phone number. Then, you have to call and get put on hold (or if you like, they will call you back three days later). Once you finally get through, you have to jump through a lot of security hoops. All of the above, just to cancel the service. Their product may or may not be OK, but be forewarned that with Sitelock, it's not easy to get out once you're in.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Radware Cloud DDoS Protection Service has positively impacted my organization by reducing lesser attacks, which has improved the availability of applications and infrastructure."
"They have a hybrid model approach if a client wants to go that way."
"The solution offers a keen, tight service; it's very good at protecting us from DDoS attacks, very good at cleaning our pipeline when support routes traffic through, the product has been stable, the performance is pretty good, and the pricing is reasonable."
"The key strength of Radware's Cloud DDoS Protection Service is its behavior engine, which uses anomaly detection to identify and stop DDoS attacks."
"I would recommend Radware DDoS to other users because in security, there are many layers of protection, and this is one of the most exposed regarding the internet."
"The intuitive user interface makes the entire process seamless and efficient."
"Data scrubbing and unmatched DDoS protection are valuable features."
"Radware DDoS is the best tool, as it protects our applications just as we intended it to."
"Not only did SiteLock's website scanner find the issue with my website, but with SiteLock I was able to implement a security system to prevent future breaches."
"It seems to provide a bit of useful information on website health."
 

Cons

"I would like to see more graphics within the dashboard. Right now, you are required to buy tools in order to have a graphical representation for your monitoring."
"The speed and quality of Radware DDoS's support should be improved."
"During our last DDoS attack in February, we were setting up the system too strict. After some time, our protection started to kill our traffic."
"Better integration with the automated incident response platform, and the ecosystem in general, would be an improvement."
"As price increases based on the volume of net traffic, it can get expensive."
"This product would be improved if ongoing live monitoring with dashboards were added."
"Their Cyber Security Controller portal, including its GUI and dashboard, could be more intuitive so CXOs can easily understand them."
"Radware Cloud DDoS Protection Service can be improved. Since Yotta is a data center with localized scrubbing centers already available, latency optimization should be further enhanced."
"Sitelock may perform a useful service, but be wary of giving them your credit card information."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is okay, and I do not have any concerns about the price."
"The product's pricing is a good value."
"The cost for maintenance is cheaper because the majority of the deployments using the solution are in areas where cost of maintenance is also lower."
"The NetFlow security could be improved too."
"Radware DefensePro is expensive when considering the issue we have and its limitations."
"The price varies by use case and there are monthly and annual licensing options. If you deploy on-premise, there is an annual license with the amount dependent on the throughput you need and which features you will be using - i.e. IPS, behavioral, etc."
"Radware's switch to a pay-as-you-go model last year provides great flexibility."
"Radware Cloud DDoS is very expensive."
"You can't just stop auto-renew from your billing panel, the way you can with reputable businesses."
