"Immediate Impact and Powerful Rule Optimization for Finance Security"
What do you like best about Opinnate?

I really appreciated how Opinnate provided instant visibility into our large set of firewall rules, making it much easier to manage and optimize them. The detailed analysis for rule optimization, the clear compliance reporting, and the user-friendly interface for viewing and editing objects all stood out. We noticed a positive impact very quickly, especially in terms of optimizing our rules and meeting regulatory requirements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Opinnate?

One improvement I would suggest is to make address objects visible in the normal filter screen. This would make it even easier to manage and edit objects directly within our workflow, enhancing overall efficiency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Exceptional Visibility, Control for Firewall Management and Rule Analysis"
What do you like best about Opinnate?

I really appreciate the rule usage analysis, the ability to monitor configuration changes, and receiving instant micro-scale alarms. Opinnate finally gives us the visibility we lacked into our firewall, letting us proactively analyze and monitor both existing and new rules. The local support and domestic nature of the product are also huge advantages for us as a government institution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Opinnate?

I would like to see improvements in the automatic update process and notification system, as currently there are no automatic updates and the notifications could be better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how Opinnate made automation straightforward, allowing us to reduce operational workload by nearly 80%. The platform's over 30 pre-built automation processes, decommission and server cloning features, and the ability to create and share custom reports across teams have made our rule management and optimization much more efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Opinnate?

We don’t have any negative issues with Opinnate. The product is highly open to development, and we receive full support in every aspect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effective Rule Cleanup and Risk Identification with Opinnate"
What do you like best about Opinnate?

I really appreciate how Opinnate gives us clear visibility into our firewall rules, especially in identifying risky and unused rules. The platform has significantly reduced the number of rules we need to clean up, bringing it down to one third of what it was before we started using Opinnate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Opinnate?

The user interface could be improved with more advanced and visually appealing dashboards. Having a fancier dashboard would enhance the overall user experience and make it easier to navigate insights. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fast Setup Enables Quick Firewall Scanning"
What do you like best about Opinnate?

With easy installation and integration, we were able to get it up and running in a short time, and by scanning our firewalls using the ready-made templates, it helped us identify and remove many shadow rules and overly broad rules.

Also below topics were really important for us:

Clear and detailed reports

Rule suggestions through analysis of syslog data

Ready integrations with popular vendors like Fortigate, Palo Alto and Check Point Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Opinnate?

Below topics must be improved in the future versions.

The licensing model is not suitable for Service Providers.

Lack of some basic and advanced configuration options for managing Firewalls. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Road Runner - A Marvel of Analysis and Management"
What do you like best about Opinnate?

I really appreciate how Opinnate makes rule analysis much easier and provides summary reports of classified rules. The visibility and awareness into our firewall policies have significantly increased, and the real-time alarm notifications have been a huge improvement over our previous solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Opinnate?

One area for improvement would be the addition of more customizable alarm options. While the current real-time alarms are helpful, having more flexibility in setting up different types of alerts would make the product even better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Streamlined Operations and Exceptional Performance Gains"
What do you like best about Opinnate?

I really appreciate how Opinnate has drastically simplified our operational processes, especially decommissioning, server cloning, and rule usage analysis. These features have saved us a lot of time and made our work much more efficient, especially with customizable reports and detailed analyses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Opinnate?

One area for improvement would be the ability to take backups of firewall devices directly through Opinnate. Adding this feature would make the platform even more comprehensive and reduce the need for external solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Flexible and User-Friendly Policy Management Tool with Great Rule Optimization"
What do you like best about Opinnate?

I really appreciate how Opinnate makes rule optimization much easier and more flexible compared to our previous processes. The rule usage feature is particularly helpful, and overall, the platform is user-friendly with a good range of features, especially for domestic needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Opinnate?

One area for improvement is the rule usage results—they could be more accurate if timeout values and server resets were better accounted for in the analysis. This would make the optimization process even more effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
