**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Hospitality | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 25, 2023

**What do you like best about Wallarm API Security Platform?**

Wallarm combines global protection rules with the rules made for specific customers. This allows us to get the most stable and up-to-date security, including zero-day fixes. Wallarm support team engineers already proved to us how efficient and knowledgeable they are and how easy it is to communicate with them. It's also easy to track all the product changes and best practices in their blog.

**What do you dislike about Wallarm API Security Platform?**

First time configuration can be tricky for people who don't have any experience or background in cybersecurity. Ideally you should be able to understand if a specific request is an attack or not to eliminate possible false positives. Luckily support team is always there for us.

Wallarm helps us to protect our applications and domains from different types of attacks. They even have reliable bruteforce protection with triggers and rate limiting. We also track possible vulnerabilities on our side and fix them before any hackers could exploit those.

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 07, 2023

**What do you like best about Wallarm API Security Platform?**

Wallarm API Security doesn't only provide you general protection, it has a lot of other useful features (for example antibot and scanner). All rules including bruteforce protection rules are highly customizable and have many actions. Everything is also easy to manage and integrate. Cloud deployment is very welcome as well and lowers a point of entry for companies without big infrastructures. Reports are easy to read and overall design is very good.

**What do you dislike about Wallarm API Security Platform?**

There is a small delay for synchronization between Wallarm Cloud and our nodes (like 3-5 minutes), so new rules are not applied instantly. Not a big problem, but wanted to highlight it anyway. Can't remember anything else to complain about.

**What problems is Wallarm API Security Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Wallarm API Security protects us from many types of threats including DDOS, attacks, bots. We can also see our perimeter using Wallarm scanner and close potential vulnerabilities.

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

1. First two weeks we had some false positives, but they were fixed in monitoring mode (no traffic impact)

2. For cloud based solution you still have to manage your cloud (not a problem for us)

**What problems is Wallarm API Security Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We're happy it's not an on-premise solution. We really appreciate easy deployment and professional support. Also Wallarm protects against all top 10 OWASP attacks and provides a very good detection.

  ### 9. Great cybersecurity solution to have

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Restaurants | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 26, 2023

**What do you like best about Wallarm API Security Platform?**

- Robust real-time monitoring with customizable alerts

- Regular updates and fixes for vulnerabilities
- Very few false positives in our experience
- Sales team is super friendly and easy to reach even after you deployed

**What do you dislike about Wallarm API Security Platform?**

Not much to complain here. Our experience with Wallarm is very positive and we appreciate that small company provides better service and product than other companies. Ability to manage NGINX in the dashboard would be nice though

**What problems is Wallarm API Security Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Firewall for both Internal and external traffic. Wallarm is also useful for statistics so we always know which hours have more traffic and we plan our marketing activities accordingly.

  ### 10. Simple to use once you configured everything

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Food & Beverages | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 26, 2023

**What do you like best about Wallarm API Security Platform?**

The best thing is the dashboard, because it's clean, beautiful and easy to understand at the first glance. We worked a lot with Wallarm technical support to deploy NGINX on our Debian server. After that we also spent some time eliminating false positives on our client. So once you have all the correct rules it's a very simple and enjoyable tool. Don't be scared by initial deployment.

**What do you dislike about Wallarm API Security Platform?**

As I mentioned before, it takes a lot of time and courage to get everything right. Also if you deploy in cloud, you need to pay for cloud as well and it can be expensive for small companies. But we are lucky and we have a budget.

**What problems is Wallarm API Security Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Wallarm protects our environment and endpoints from external attacks. We also use it to monitor times when traffic is high and we use this information to adjust our activities and promotions.
