Hi @chcw,
Naturally, there can be overlapping features which could result in more of your site’s resources being used during scans etc. when installing more than one security suite/firewall. Wordfence does have some modules that can be disabled but not all products do so be careful in which features you like/dislike from each. Ultimately, the choice of which security strategy to implement on a site is that of the administrator.
I find a good approach when forming an opinion is to take a look around the plugin provider’s blog posts for news about protection from the latest and emerging threats: https://www.wordfence.com/blog/category/vulnerabilities/
You can also read more about what Wordfence protects you against and how to use it in our free learning center: https://www.wordfence.com/learn/
If you have further questions about specific features, by all means contact our excellent team at presales @ wordfence . com.
Thanks,
Peter.
