Find out what your peers are saying about Cisco, HPE Aruba Networking, Forescout and others in Network Access Control (NAC)."The profiling model included is the most valuable feature."
"At the moment, ISE seems to integrate very well with a number of other technologies."
"The most valuable feature is the provisioning of the device so as to ensure that they are compliant with the security policy that we need to have."
"The ability to integrate our Cisco AnyConnect connections to the active directory has been great."
"I like the guest access feature, which has been important for us."
"The live logs and live sessions for troubleshooting are the most valuable features because they provide a detailed report of any issues."
"The solution enables us to authenticate with AD."
"It integrates with the rest of our platform, like our firewall, and helps us a lot. It also does a good job establishing trust for every access request."
"I would rate the solution's stability eight or nine out of ten."
"It's very easy to implement everything."
"The solution gets the job done, and we don't have to do the main configuration."
"The keystore feature has been most valuable for us."
"Comprehensive ecosystem."
"The product provides easy integration between API manager and IT server components."
"Some of the valuable features of the solution are the easy integration with processes, such as Single Sign-On. Overall WSO2 is straightforward and does not need customization."
"The single sign-on procedure itself, as well as the ability to connect to external user sources such as Microsoft Active Directory and LDAP servers, are the solution's most valuable features."
"In the next release, I would want to see this kind of solution in the cloud as opposed to on prem because when enhancements are made to the software, if it's in the cloud, it's overnight. I mean you're not going to have to respin the servers that the license sits on, it's all microservices kinds of things in the cloud. That would be my recommendation. If I'm a customer, that's what I'm looking at - for cloud based software subscriptions."
"The price could be better. I would like to see more integration with third-party solutions in the next release. This is because many of my clients don't have Cisco."
"It would be nice if it could be configured easily by default."
"The solution is not so user-friendly."
"The solution can lag somewhat as we have a large database."
"We face many bugs."
"The software is a little bit complicated to understand in the beginning, meaning the implementation. It needs proper documentation so that we can understand the options more easily."
"The user interface can be improved."
"The high availability architecture has to be improved."
"This solution requires extensive knowledge to be used effectively as certain areas of its use are not user friendly."
"There needs to be a good support model and easy-to-understand documentation."
"This solution does not have BPM workflows already integrated, we had to integrate the BPM module externally. They do not provide full-featured auditing and certification modules out of the box."
"I found the initial setup to be very complex."
"The solution seems to be pretty outdated."
"Sometimes working with the code is difficult because I search for documentation about the code and how to work with the code, which is where I believe they should improve, by providing some documentation on how to work with the code."
"The solution could improve its development from a user perspective."
