"The most valuable feature is the visibility of processes and connections."
"I found the solution to be stable."
"The most valuable features of the solution are the maps and ring fencing that help monitor events."
"The real bonus is the fact that we can secure applications, all the way down to the individual services, on each host. It's actually more granular security than we can get out of a traditional firewall."
"The solution is very scalable, especially when connected to the cloud resources."
"The interface and dashboard are amazing."
"The tool's most valuable feature is its visibility."
"We appreciate the optimization and acceleration of the performance of SDP users."
"The query and the SD-WAN are useful features of the solution."
"The feature that I find to be the most valuable is the bandwidth aggregation."
"When I first encountered Cato, I didn't know how to use it, but after a week of training, I could onboard our systems to it, so the solution was easy to learn and navigate."
"The most valuable feature is that it also works as a next-gen firewall because it has security features."
"Cato offers all the functionality found in other solution. The life cycle management is always very stable."
"The WAN aggregation feature is the most valuable."
"It is a stable solution...it is a scalable solution."
"The dashboard needs improvement. It should be more flexible so that I can easily see what I want or need to see."
"The product needs a few features like enhanced user policies and payload-level inspection to improve the offering."
"Needs more customization of honeypots and a vaster catalog of systems able to be mimicked."
"Sometimes, the speed needs improvement, especially when it comes to the generation of maps, where it can be a bit slow."
"In our version, when using the terminal server, we cannot exclude user tasks for each session."
"Clients would like to see that the security policies of GuardiCore can continue to be comparable to all the major firewall players out there."
"Customers would want to see the cost improved."
"It doesn't support a PAAC solution (Platforma as a service) in the cloud."
"The product must evolve into the endpoint domain."
"They should include a web application firewall feature in the solution."
"We would like the product to continue to improve its security."
"The tool needs to be more granular. Its reports are not very in-depth."
"I am located in South Korea, and I can say that most people here have no idea about Cato Networks. I think Cato Networks should promote its network services in various countries."
"The solution could be made more user friendly for the administrator to use the portal. It is difficult to use it for people who are not experienced with Cato Networks."
"For a packaged solution, needing external intervention or a system integrator to get other features not offered by Cato Networks could be an area for improvement. Cato Networks does what it's meant to do and is even overstretching capabilities when introducing new features. The product can only have very few features added on top of what its currently doing. Managed service providers can deliver the extra features you'd need. It's a set of managed services, and what Cato Networks does is very comprehensive. So, for the time being, when the actual incarnation of the SASE solution is deployed, Cato Networks is a very effective product. Naturally, technology will evolve, so everybody knows that in three, four, or five years, there will be a new kid on the block, a new game. Still, at the moment, Cato Networks only needs to improve a little regarding SASE delivery. The product is doing very well, but one feature the Cato Networks team is doing right is preparing for the future through deploying the SSE 360, so the security service is at that edge. It's an excellent strategy to prepare for the future. SSE 360 is what Cato Networks should invest in the most to keep prospering."
"The product may be complex for users with few years of experience."
