Overall Satisfaction with DDoS-GUARD

We use DDoS-GUARD to protect our servers and 30+ client websites from DDoS attacks to make sure there is uptime and credibility. It helps us filter traffic for 100,000 daily requests and integrates with our hosting solutions. This protection allows us to focus on delivering reliable managed IT services without the burden of building our own costly DDoS mitigation infrastructure. Overall it helps in our operational efficiency and service credibility.

Pros

  • Real-Time Traffic Filtering
  • Integration
  • Responsive Support

Cons

  • Detailed post-attack analytics
  • Slow Response During Edge Cases
  • More intuitive API dashboard
  • It has ensured 99.9% uptime for 30+ client websites of ours during attacks. DDoS-GUARD has cut churn by 15%, retaining significant money in annual contracts. Our clients cite reliability as a key reason for renewals.
  • Outsourcing DDoS mitigation to DDoS-GUARD saves us $50,000 yearly versus building an in-house solution. This helps and frees our team to focus on high-value app development and boosts our billable hours.
  • With quick setup, we have been able to win 5 new contracts worth $75,000 annually and strengthened our position as a Cybersecurity Managed Services IT provider.
The setup is straightforward. DNS rerouting and a clear client area wizard protect our 30+ client sites fast considering our small team. The real-time dashboard simplifies monitoring 100,000 daily requests, and 24/7 support resolves issues like rate-limit tweaks. It could be a 10/10 if API dashboard is more intuitive and if reporting could be more granular
We chose DDoS-GUARD for its cost-effective and flexible plans. This software had the ability to meet our requirements. That is to scale with our 30+ client websites and 100,000 daily requests. The Integration also seemed better than AWS ecosystems and simpler API management. This aligned better with our multi-platform needs and budget.

Do you think DDoS-GUARD delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with DDoS-GUARD's feature set?

Yes

Did DDoS-GUARD live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of DDoS-GUARD go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy DDoS-GUARD again?

Yes

It is well suited for handling predictable surges (100,000 daily requests), defending against volumetric attacks and Quick Setup for new client onboarding with amazing DNS Integration. It is probably less effective or I would say there is scope for improvement against sophisticated multi-vector attacks and direct-to-origin threats bypassing its cloud protection when IPs are exposed.
