## Reviews

### "best WAF product" — 5.0/5

> **sunny** | *18 August 2020* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: An easy to deploy WAF.
It detects most of the OWASP top 10 attacks and alerting is great too.
Logging is amazing as well.
> 
> **Cons**: It catches most of the attacks, however can miss obfuscated and craft payloads. 
The detection engine keep getting better hence it less of a concern
> 
> King of Web Application Firewalls and good value for money

### "Okay for email spam filter" — 3.0/5

> **Connie** | *6 July 2021* | Apparel & Fashion | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It does a nice job  filtering a lot of spam/junk email which is great to not have cluttered in my inbox every day.
> 
> **Cons**: It blocks delivering legit emails - even ones that people are responding to original email I sent. And sporadic on sending  email notification when emails are blocked.
> 
> Always have hard time access account if I’m not doing so from a recent email notification received.
