### "Depth audit reports makes post-incident reviews easier"

April 10, 2025

4.0

Pros

Firewall Analyzer has been protecting me finally and alerts me of various issues such as attempts of unauthorized access, increased traffic levels not in compliance with the periods I recognize or even when a firewall rule has been changed. I also liked that it possible to set custom parameters for each type of event.

Cons

I realized there were some delays especially when the program was doing the integration of the firewalls. I am forced to manually confirm the synchronization which interrupts the work process if I am carrying out the analysis in real-time.

### "Securing and conforming to compliant networks"

April 2, 2025

4.0

Pros

I like the utility of the ManageEngine Firewall Analyzer as it allows managing configurations of multiple brands at once. Clearly compliance reports help it reduce compliance-related issues and the resultant fines with ease.​

Cons

With setting up of the logs much of time was used so that there is high accuracy in the results of the first setup. It is disadvantageous in the sense that it does not have a more guided setup process.​

### "Maintaining the continuity of the traffic without any hindrances"

April 26, 2025

4.0

Pros

With the help of Firewall Analyzer it is possible to capture comprehensive traffic logs and in terms on them find out any suspicious activity on the network. This is important in avoiding possible attacks and other unauthorized attempts to access a system. It is very useful in order to head off any network security problems.

Cons

Some of the reports provided could be more detailed. Also, the variety of events that are classified as firewalls might be too general, and one has to filter for more detailed information.

### "Expanded our knowledge of the network traffic fluctuation"

April 26, 2025

4.0

Pros

ManageEngine Firewall Analyzer has brought useful features such as comprehensive traffic reports of network usage. This information has been very useful in establishing some areas that are likely to cause congestion and or how to allocate bandwidth appropriately.​

Cons

Carefully analyzing the traffic data can present challenges, as the information at times may not be detailed enough, and additional instruments have to be utilized to gain a clearer understanding of the issue.​

### "Reduced latency in packet inspection and improved firewall throughput"

April 17, 2025

5.0

Pros

I consider the suggestions related to reordering and optimization to be quite helpful as well. Firewall Analyzer also featured a rule ranking that depended on its contextual use, thus allowing for the identification of frequent hits on rules that required reordering to increase efficiency.

Cons

Each and every rule had to be pulled from the device by device and if there are numerous firewalls of various makes and models then this operation equals to work of a robot.

### "Assisted in minimizing guess work especially in determining policy violations"

April 18, 2025

4.0

Pros

I was captivated by the capability that Firewall Analyzer has in parsing logs from various brands of firewalls. I did not need to switch between another set of interface or tool to read logs from Check Point and Juniper; it was integrated with the same reporting portal.

Cons

It is even worst when the configuration backup schedule fails to complete particularly when working with older firmware versions. While such an occurrence is not very common, it entails some manual checks that use a lot of time.

### "Built-in security audit templates made regulatory compliance simpler"

April 27, 2025

4.0

Pros

I liked that Firewall Analyzer integrates with the firewall traffic and maps different activities with security threat levels, which is useful in helping me to contain activities that are considered malicious before they get worse.

Cons

The usage reports offered minute lags at the peak of usage times when traffic was indeed enormous heavily. I had to often refresh to obtain the current data during any concentrated review periods.

### "Improve the structure and transparency in my log monitoring process"

April 17, 2025

5.0

Pros

I specifically liked that Firewall Analyzer had no allegiance to any vendor, since my network comprised of both. I could analyze logs from Check Point and Juniper firewalls with the same logical structure to produce security analytics and set up alerts that were actually preventing internal danger thresholds.

Cons

The performance issue that I came across are that we had occasional Log Retention Loss for High Volume Firewalls.

### "Tightened my firewall process to meet all auditing requirements"

April 4, 2025

5.0

Pros

Firewall Analyzer is particularly useful in these aspects when it comes to compliance as it comes with predefined reports to use for auditing. This is because it enables the tracking of configurations hence helps in keeping track of changed policies.​

Cons

The real-time alerts captured some time delay which in the case of threats could lead to a delay in response. Among the problems occurred the system’s responsiveness was compromised as to the speed of data retrieval and analysis.

### "Successfully handled the real-time threats with vast precision"

April 11, 2025

4.0

Pros

I can receive notifications on any form of congestion, suspicious ports, and or misused protocols. This is why the forensic depth of each alert provides me with enough information to respond instantly without having to scroll through the logs on my own.

Cons

During the interconnection of this method of packet sniffing there was a significant increase in CPU usage on our monitoring server. It was a delicate task to keep this up and steady without compromising on performance.

### "Delivered dependable firewall log management and analysis"

April 8, 2025

4.0

Pros

The forensic log search function of ManageEngine Firewall Analyzer is good as I do not have any problem in tracing an incident to the exact time it occurred. Predefined reports for common firewall models help to cut the time spent on configurations.

### "Enhances firewall rule management effectively"

April 22, 2025

5.0

Pros

The firewall rule analysis of Firewall Analyzer meets my expectations, which I like. It is the one which points out the existing or deleted rules which are useless in the firewall configuration. This has made our network faster and less prone to certain risks.​

Cons

The part of the dashboard containing rules could be designed in stance with the current format.

### "Effective in regulating traffic behavior in a very strict manner"

April 18, 2025

5.0

Pros

Regarding Firewall Analyzer, I need detailed bandwidth and security event reports which I found usefully equipped in this utility. I was able to realize and efficiently guard against traffic anomalies that could become actual problems within a short period of time.

Cons

The first functional limitations that I found were with the alert correlation logic.

### "Simplified our compliance reporting and provided structure"

April 22, 2025

4.0

Pros

The reports available in the ManageEngine Firewall that adheres to predetermined conformity standard such as the PCI DSS and ISO 27001 are helpful. They do help us understand more about our state of compliance, specifically, auditors become easier to handle.​

Cons

I have observed that the feature of scheduling the report to be delivered through email as scheduled doesn’t seems to work at times.

### "Vendor support for multiple firewalls cuts across management operations"

April 5, 2025

4.0

Pros

I find Firewall Analyzer particularly useful since it provides regular insights into the network flow and represents potential threats. The real-time alert notifications are important for ensuring that a safe environment is maintained at all times and the reports provided are detailed.

Cons

I sometimes had to struggle with poor response time while generating reports working with a large volume of log data subset. This led to the need for more time in analysis which can be enhanced in the future for better productivity.​

### "Firewall Analyzer Experience"

August 20, 2024

5.0

The application has been top notch. Even when I had an issue on the application, the Support team was very much available to provide a solution for me.

Pros

The application ease when integrating to my Fortinet analyzer and the records of logs it made available thereafter from the GUI

Cons

I quite like the application, but I think I would also like to have it summarize the records for Management reporting purpose

### "Strongly recommended and any firewall management tasks."

October 18, 2024

5.0

Pros

Log analyzer feature is the most critical part for my job.

Cons

In my opinion GUI should be a bit more easy to navigate, if you compare it with vendor who produces firewalls (name start with P) has much more intuitive GUI that everyone will benefit from. Maybe in some next releases you can accommodate some some of those approaches and integrate in your product.
