Both perform admirably with regards to providing that single pane of glass and visibility in a normalized view. They both provide great insight into where your organization stands in terms of compliance controls. In terms of upgrading and scalability, I would have to give the edge to Tufin.

I was not involved on the decision but having multiple brands in the company make sense to use a tool such as Firemon because it integrates easily with multiple vendors.

To be blunt, at the time of purchase most of these products appeared to do the same things in the same ways. What really brought us to the table with FireMon six years ago was their willingness to earn our business, and to this day they remain just as committed to keeping our business as they were to getting it. Some companies get too big, and with that comes an ego and prioritization of key clients. I'm sure FireMon does some of this in the background, but you'd never know it. AlgoSec didn't think they had to try at all; they thought the product would sell itself. At that time so many years ago, AlgoSec was leading the way, but I saw a ton of potential in FireMon and so we gave it a go and at this moment in time I can say we aren't looking back. In fact, we are trying to forge ahead to open up more product features and bring additional ROI to the organization working side by side with FireMon.

I has worked with AlgoSec and while they are very similar product, I find the FireMon is easier to understand and get rolling with. While both require some learning, FireMon is by far the easier one. Once you have an understanding of how things are arranged and labeled you can easily import firewalls and begin to work on them to improve them

AlgoSec and Tufin both have initial issues during the POC stage, and FireMon even though with the changes they have made still works better and is more user friendly.

They are two very well done tools, FireMon is better suited for firewall rules evaluation, configuration and review, Tenable.io is better suited for CIS benchmarking. We ended up using both of them in the end, it really depends of your needs and what you are looking for, the two tools are built for different purposes.

We performed a head-to-head PoC between FireMon and AlgoSec several years ago. Both platforms were well developed, but FireMon had the upper hand in three areas:
  1. Its UI was more unified and intuitive across the different components and products
  2. The reporting was better suited for upper management and more visually appealing
  3. The REST API was easier to use, at least in the limited time we had during the PoC
