GoDaddy Keeps Your Site Secure

5.0 5 months ago

Comments: My overall experience has been positive and I maintain this feature on my account with them to keep my sites secure.

This product allows you to secure your website and the team will also work with you to restore a site that's been hacked and find any vulnerabilities so the hack doesn't happen again.

Cons:

GoDaddy's interface can be somewhat challenging to navigate at times.

Easy to Use Website Security Package

4.0 2 years ago

Comments: Overall a good system, you get what you pay for and it's a good value.

Pros:

Godaddy put together an easy to use web security platform. It's turn key from the start, just click to enable. Dose a good job keeping an eye on our site and alerting you to issues.

Cons:

It's a limited platform without a NOC/SOC to give you a deep device into issues. But for the cost that's understandable. If your looking for some basic projections this is a good place to start.

Skip it.

2.0 last year

Comments: We switched to Cloudflare and couldn't be happier. Plus, we get IPv6 and TLS 1.3, while GoDaddy support is still like "IPv-what?" and "your website supports TLS 1.2, the latest version of the SSL protocol" (actual quote).

Pros:

Honestly? Nothing. It sends me a daily email detailing all of the automated bots that visited the site, whether they're dangerous or not.

Cons:

It doesn't serve any purpose. Plus, they don't even support IPv6. How are we supposed to target the modern Internet with no native IPv6 support?

Advanced protection for your website

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: I have been able to resolve vulnerabilities with our website, making it more secure and the satisfaction that we have a good tool to control this type of malware attacks so common.

Pros:

The advantage of being able to perform daily scans of my site for malware and enable or disable certain firewall features at the time of editing.

Cons:

Sometimes the response time is slow when you send a request to the technical support area to perform some action, but nothing that is not within the appropriate response times.
