HUMAN Bot Defender protects our sites and mobile apps from abuse 24/7 and has been proven itself time and time again. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
When customers recieve a hard block they become very dissapointed and vocal that they can not continue their journey. It's a fine balance in being strict enough without affecting ordinary users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I found it easily integrated into my work process without the need to considerably alter existing code. This was helpful in conserving time during implementation and other stressed resources such as space. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I was thrilled to know that honeypots are used but their usage does not last. Pryingeyes is sophisticated and slips through such traps easily leaving my real data exposed. I expected the bot identification system to be stronger than that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The platform provides the data needed to effectively manage and mitigate BOT/normal requests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The platform doesn't always mitigate or action on some BOT requests or requires additional 'tuning' to react to some events. As the product matures further, there is expectations this will improve with enhancements/advancements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I think your customer service is one of the best - fast investigation and respond process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
sometimes the loading time of the investigation dashboard is long - each visualization is loaded separately when I'm trying to view it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that I have a partner that helps me to prevent bots from getting into our site as much as possible Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We often recognize the users before you, I expect you to notify when any abnormality is happening Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I believe that the tool is great for preventing bots, especially if you are a small team or do not have many engineers. The tool has grown with our business in the last 6 years and it has done a great job of mitigating issues we see with scrape attempts. The customer support is great and is happy to help us. Integration is simple as we leverage customer support to get VCL updates made. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I think one challenge we have faced is answering questions from teams where they have asked why some traffic was blocked when it should not have. The console has good information, but it does not always paint the picture as clearly as we need it. One other challenge is I do not see an integration with terraform. If we could terraform our configurations, it would help us a lot because everything has to be manually set up and we have to document how it is set up. An IaC setup would help us avoid this.

HUMAN Bot Defender has quickly and efficiently blocked the majority of bad actors and bot traffic hitting our site, while providing us consistent and easy-to-follow reporting and dashboards to manage our blocking threshold. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes it's hard to quantify the impact of bot traffic, so the cost of a bot defender could feel steep to some. In our case, our malicious traffic was affecting sponsored campaigns and measurable KPIs like clicks and CTR, so we were easily able to justify the cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Any other bot defense solution is network signature based, which is not enough of the picture to prevent advanced bots. If your website is a high value target for advanced botters you literally cannot afford not to have Bot Defender. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Configuration and maintenance can be a chore, think stick shift vs automatic. You are getting more power but at the cost of complexity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We had a good experience during our integration efforts. We have some custom needs and the HUMAN team was very responsive to our needs and helped us resolve issues in a timely manner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
With our custom integration we'd like to see more visibility into the reasons HUMAN is providing particular scores. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
HUMAN's bot defender enables me to not have to worry about weeding out low quality from high quality traffic. I'm confident that the traffic hitting our pages has been vetted by HUMAN and that we're collecting data on readers/users with actual intent and interest in our content.

Given the volume of other partners we work with, someotimes we must manually block or unblock certain IPs from these partners so that they can perform their services for us. This can be tedious at times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
