The most helpful part of Imperva Cloud Security is preventing bad actors from accessing your site and attempting to break into it or deface it. There are many upsides that come along with this, including the ability to prevent bad actors from profiling your site to find weaknesses to exploit them, often times these bots run through hundreds if not thousands of vulnerabilities at a time in the manner of seconds, with Imperva they get stopped in their tracks. If bandwidth is a concern this will help preserve it for legitimate traffic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
If you have multiple varying domains under your account, and are using Imperva's SSL Certificates, they all share the same and tools on the net can be used to find alternate sites under your account. This was not a major concern for my company, but can see some examples of how this could be revealing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have used Incapsula's free CDN services before and I can say that it is good compared to Cloudflare. Their CDN is more stable compared to cloudflare at that time, and only a few 503s appear.
The only reason I left Incapsula is they do not support SSL for free, and at that time, I do not have enough to spend for the expenses, so I switched to Cloudflare because they offer it for free. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Incapsula is good compared to other free CDN services I have tried, but its just the SSL that made me decide to go with cloudflare becaues its free. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Thanks to incapsula I can control all types of attacks against the security of our digital platforms, it is a perfect tool for web protection, since it has a highly effective system against all types of attacks, it should be noted that while Incapsula is running on On the website, this does not produce effects for the performance of the website in question, which is a point in favor of this application, since there are other applications, which offer a very complete protection, but usually affect the performance and functioning of the websites, something that with Imperva Incapsula does not happen, that's why it is our preferred security platform.

You have to be honest, and this is not what I say, many colleagues think the same, this application is too expensive, there are many options in the market, and I do not know why they do not analyze costs, other applications, and they adapt a little to the prices that can be found in other programs that provide the same service, is a very good application, but the price can be a great reason, so that not everyone uses it.

It is a very powerful and wide solution, but the interface is very, very compact and all the features are easy-to-go. Scriptable security rules, which are activating super fast (hello, Akamai), the real-time dashboard is easy to use and very informative Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Actually, I can't find any serious troubles during our experience. Especially for such price Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the UI of Incapsula, and how easy it is to understand. Every element has helpful descriptions, and the layout of the platform is very clean. Every screen has a wealth of functionality, but it is all very easy to digest and move through. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Managing wildcard domains through Incapsula is a little cumbersome in their setup, but its not a major issue. It just took a couple extra steps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Its quick procedure to secure from DDOS attack , bandwidth management reduced tension , reduced cost , more safer feel when imperva is working Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
SOMETIME OVERLOOKED IP , OR POPUPS are really pissing . but its not in most of cases . false positive ratio is very low Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Absolutely NOTHING! There is nothing special about this product at all, and we've been counting the days till the end of our contract with them only a week into it, after they lied to us to get us to sign up. Google complaints about them, and you'll find hundreds of others with the same complaint. They lie and cheat you just to get you in the door, and then REALLY screw you after that.

They are WAY over-priced BLOATWARE, and their sales weasels are a bunch of lying scumbags who pull a bait & switch on almost everyone. Just expect to pay double whatever they promise, and don't expect a whole lot more than what you can get from CloudFlare for a 3rd of the price. What a total rip off!

Technological Advancement of the system. Mostly thinking about future proof system and Incapsula made it possible which is definitely superior than the competitions. The Reseller portal is very user friendly. Wish to see some more benefits out of it and also, pricing should be more practical for the third world countries specially poor to mid earning countries where price is the main barrier to make Incapsula popular.
Further improvement can be done if the technical audit team can work together with the customers, where the problem they are facing and where the service should from back to square. Last three years support experience only shows that you don't find any problem at your end. Which indicates clearly that some robotic human is doing service in Incapsula who does not think about the technology rather pass day to day job with number of tickets to solve and thus to increase the KPI, not considering the sufferings of the customer. Not only that if a second level or 3rd level technical people talks to the customers sometime will definitely increase the market acceptance.
I just got some good news that Incapsula will take part in our drive to popularise Incapsula in our community. I really appreciate that. Also, like to see Incapsula Technical ambassadors to publish/speak to the technical community of the very stablished NOGs and Conferences like APRICOT, APNIC, SANOG and many other world recognised events. The competition is really aggressive in these events and getting very good response from there. It is also recommended that some very innovative promotional activities should be run on a regular basis in such events or some specific or individual events.

Support Staff. Too bookish.
Can not protect from Syn Flood. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Incapsula is the best way to protect Web sites of ours customers,,is easy to implement that in a few minutes are ready to protect, time and costs are excellent reasons to chosse Incapsula in the first place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Well maybe that if we need to customize some waf policy, we need to send a request to incapsula and in some occasions this process delay Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Incapsula is very flexible, I quickly find a lot of solutions for common security concerns or issues we are having. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It would be nice if they can have a more modern looking UI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The customer support/service is some of the best I have seen in the industry. Each time I call in with a question I have my answer in no time. I have not had to sit on hold for a long time whenever I have called in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The cost is slightly high, but as they say you get what you pay for, and Incapsula delivers every time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Incapsula can protect your website from hacker, help webmaster blocked many attack like SQLinjection, XSS, make the websites become stable and block bad bots connect (anti ddos)
WAF of Incapsula is the best which not make the false block on ddos, your website will never get down because of ddos if you can hide your IP
don't need to wait 5second like 'other service'. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
its will have a little popup at the bottom-right of the websites, which i don't want it to show up (only show up at some sites i don't understand why)
need to relogin everytime you press homepage, that make my angry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The CDN allowed us to cut costs at our data center to such an extent that it offset the cost of the service meaning the DDoS mitigation that brought us to Incapsula in the first place is almost a free bonus. I cannot say enough about the ease of implementation and fast response from their support teams Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We occasionally have an issue when we relaunch a site with a new design with their caching setup, but this is a minor inconvenience in the end. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What I like best is, primarily, the ease of implementation. It took no time at all to get up and running versus the days or weeks from the competitor we switched from. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The thing I like least is the lack of reporting options. I would like to be able to generate reports for different periods of time besides the one weekly report that gets sent. Would also like the ability, through the GUI to copy settings from one site to another.. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
WAF : ability to configure traffic filtering rules to a very granular level at the same time immediate applications. Also it has an easy to use panel. The bot rate and stammers drastically reduced by 94% in a week's time.
CDN: nearly a free CDN worked wonders for my applications that were not CDN fronted like our SSO Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Could do a ton more on the reporting and filtering. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
They offers free plan get to benefit from a full fledged Web Application Firewall. And have a trial plan that like a pro feature that you can try.
I compare with others CDN, it seem free plan of Incapsula have more features. Also Incapsula have a smart tool to block ddos and bad bots. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Cost of incapsula more expensive compare others CDN with the same features. But i know, good support need high cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The imperva incapsula solution is easy to implement with any type of architect and it is intelligent enough to detect bad traffic by itself without defining any rules. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The service is unstable sometimes. The console UI can be enhanced for sure. The billing features can be included in the console . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What I like about Incapsula is that one can protect an online app in full.
Not only the web app itself (WAF) but also its platform (DDoS/Infrastructure Protection) and DNS service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
A major problem we see in Incapsula projects is the missing on-prem appliance for local DDoS protection and automatic switch-over to cloud-based scrubbing centers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Caching, threat protection, redundancy - total confidence in my sites' safety. We've been very satisfied with this product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I don't dislike anything at all. This has been exactly what I was hoping for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
