"The interface is really friendly. It's simple to understand."
"I didn't have any hiccups or issues with it."
"It is easy to set up and is stable. It is scalable as well, depending on the model."
"The solution is scalable and can go from a very small deployment to handling 10,000 transactions a second."
"It's a stable solution while it's running. We don't have to work on it a lot. There are not many bugs, so it's easy to use if you deploy successfully. You can be sure of an uninterrupted solution for quite a long time. Citrix is a good product."
"What I find most valuable about this solution, is that it runs seamlessly."
"The solution has very flexible configuration."
"Provides good performance and speed."
"The initial setup is simple. Normally with all setups, it's not very complicated. It really depends on the customer."
"The user interface should be improved as it is not very easy to work with the updates."
"It would be better to connect to an application portal from any device. Documentation and support could be better."
"On the cloud, when you make some changes, it may be difficult."
"One thing that kind of sticks out to me is the ability to do a proper non-split tunnel. VPN tunnel-wise, it is not really a true unsplit tunnel, but I think that's just because of the way it's designed. A split VPN basically allows your system to talk to other systems without being forced down the tunnel. A VPN running in a non-split tunnel mode forces all the traffic down the tunnel to wherever you're VPNing to. It forces the traffic down so that the traffic is subject to the firewall and rules that you have in your corporate environment and such. It helps to prevent remote malicious folks that may be talking directly to that box from piggybacking into the corporate environment through it. They do it partially, but it would be nice to see more of an enterprise-level solution there."
"One limitation is that it's harder to provide access to multiple applications in the company with Appgate, but that's probably because of poor management."
"They could provide a single-box solution to manage tools for 4000 users. Additionally, they could add extra features to enhance remote micro connection."
"If the solution had a more advanced DNS, it would be an improvement."
"The initial setup is not straightforward."
"Citrix Gateway could improve the speed of the VPN. I sometimes have to wait for 10 to 15 minutes to get connected and other times when I am connected I have to abort, and reconnect."
"It would be nice if they offered easier setups and implementation wizards."
"While connectivity is not something that is under Citrix's control, if the connectivity is spotty, it can be difficult."
"The solution can be a bit pricey."
"It's extremely complicated and it's not intuitive. The solution requires a lot of training to get going on it."
"The solution has unnecessary limitations."
