Feroot Security Reviews & Product Details

Having used Feroot in various roles alongside a number of other tools over the years, I’ve found Feroot to be both a breath of fresh air and one of the strongest products for handling recurring automated scans of client-side issues. It focuses on what users actually experience in the browser, including the behavior of privacy controls.

Feroot offers both an enterprise SaaS platform and a more limited but still extremely good free Chrome website auditing addon. The SaaS product supports geo-selected scans across privacy and security use cases. On the privacy side, this includes identifying trackers and cookies along with their various GDPR style categorizations, visualizing script loading and tracker firing chains, auditing cross-border data transfers, and validating privacy banner functionality. On the security side, it can surface issues such as CSP misconfigurations and package vulnerabilities.

The Chrome add-on is particularly useful for fast, one-off checks while actively browsing a page. It makes it easy to see exactly what is firing in real time, verify whether a privacy banner is functioning correctly, and perform in-the-moment testing far more efficiently.

For long-term governance and auditing, the SaaS scans provide automated monitoring with the ability to flag issues and trigger actions such as creating tickets for remediation. These can be run at any frequency you want, i.e. weekly, monthly, etc. Scan results and logs can also be forwarded into existing internal logging or monitoring tools; I’ve seen this integrated successfully with platforms like Datadog.

Overall every time I've worked with Feroot and Feroot Support Eng to configure the platform it's been extremely smooth, including with rapid feature improvements to support more specific use-cases.

I often recommend Feroot to both technical and non-technical privacy and security professionals, especially recommending the free addon as a starting point. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Like any tool there can be a bit of a learning curve when first getting started, particularly around understanding all of the available configuration options and navigating the UI and setting up scans with niche or non-standard requirements. The best choice is to treat the onboarding experience as both a configuration and learning experience to get to know the platform specifics. Some of the more advanced features take a little time to become familiar with, but this is largely a reflection of the depth of functionality rather than a major drawback.

I find Feroot Security easy to navigate and operate, with an intuitive console and layout. I appreciate the always timely response from their support staff and customer success managers whenever we need support. This saves us time and effort, plus the communications are well-structured and effective. They understand our requests and provide valuable suggestions for best practices. The initial setup was very smooth and time-effective, and their customer success manager and support personnel were very supportive and helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I’ve been using Feroot for a while now, and I have to say, it’s been a solid addition to our web security setup. With so many threats targeting the client side these days, it’s refreshing to have a tool that actually keeps an eye on what’s happening in real time on the user’s end.

The dashboard is straightforward and easy to get your head around, which makes it simple to spot any dodgy activity or vulnerabilities. Integration was pretty painless too — it slid into our existing systems without much hassle.

One thing I really appreciate is how quickly Feroot flags potential issues. It’s saved us a fair bit of time chasing down false alarms or waiting for server-side alerts that come too late. The support team have also been helpful whenever I’ve had questions, which is always a bonus.

All in all, if you’re looking to shore up your client-side security without faffing about, Feroot is definitely worth a look.

I use Feroot on a daily basis, any problems, there is a great team to handle help requests via teams integration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has taken quite a bit of time to get all our sites set into Feroot's Strikt mode, however this is down to the process of manually testing each bit of functionality for each of the sites, whilst having to make a few changes to components on our site.

Whilst this is a dislike, it is not down to Feroot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find Feroot Security easy to work with, and it has successfully passed all our audits. The support team is very responsive, which I really appreciate. Additionally, their pricing is fair and flexible, making it a great choice for our needs. The initial setup was very easy, taking just around 3 hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing, it is great Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Feroot has been an outstanding asset to our organization.

It provides scalable efficiency in security reporting, allowing us to streamline operations with confidence.

Feroot successfully addressed our PCI compliance requirements, making a previously complex process seamless.

The onboarding experience was easy, safe, and welcoming — thanks to the exceptional support and expertise from Mark Gillard and Sami Bagh.

We now rely on Feroot as a robust security framework, helping us strengthen our overall cybersecurity posture.

Its Access Control Measures are truly best-in-class, delivering precision, reliability, and peace of mind.

Feroot integration is incredibly seamless, making it easy to adopt without disrupting our existing workflows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have no dislikes of Feroot at the moment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As the person who works within Feroot on a daily basis, I do like how easy the application is to navigate. I also appreciate the consultative support that is provided by their employees. I came onto the project later and needed extra handholding to learn how to setup scans. Once I received a quality walkthrough, I found the implementation to be fairly simple.

When I first started, I found our initial customer support specialist not to be as helpful as I needed him to be. He moved on voluntarily and our new support specialist, Sina, is awesome. He is so very helpful and if he doesn't know the answer, he's willing to find the answer. The only other downside is the ability to export certain views. I have to work with other teams on getting vulnerabilities resolved and have to share information with users who do not have access to Feroot. However, an enhancement request has been put in and work-around is under development. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Feroot’s PageGuard has been a game-changer for our frontend security posture. Right out of the gate, the ease of use and integration stood out. The setup process was smooth, and we were able to get visibility into our client-side JavaScript behavior almost instantly. Before Feroot, our coverage on client-side threats—especially from third-party JS threats—were minimal. Now, we get actionable alerts about suspicious behaviors such as unauthorized cookie access, data exfiltration attempts, or script injections which not only eases our mind from that perspective but helps us with other initiatives across our legal, privacy and compliance teams. It has made our platform more resilient and helped us confidently address client-side security in more ways than one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If I had to nitpick, the UI can feel a little intimidating at times where navigating historical alerts and handling alerts can be time consuming and fine-tuning policies can be overwhelming and tedious. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Feroot security gives us deep visibility into our website scripts, not just what is on the server, but the scripts that load from scripts that we were unaware of. They really help you see the entire picture of what is loading on the site and where security vulnerabilities may exist down the chain of scripts loading on the site. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The platform is complex, it's going to give you a lot of data, don't expect a magical fix button because the service will show you the issues, but to resolve you may need to reach out to vendors or decide to stop using certain vendors or scripts. Feroot can allow you to simply block security issues as well, but you still have to consider functionality of your site. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best platform on the market with the best solution architecture. Feroot combines multiple data-sources to provide rich and robust insights into how the JavaScript on your website interacts with data.

Feroot enables us to set policy on which scripts are authorised to use different data types, and both alert and enforce against that policy.

The implementation is super simple, and there is always support available. Feroot integrates with all our other key tooling for ticketing, monitoring and alerts.

The team behind Feroot are high perfomers, continually iterating on their product against a strategic roadmap.

However, they are always generous with their time and keen to listen and provide support where needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
