"I am satisfied with the overall product since it works well…It is a stable solution."
"The set up was very easy. We didn't have any problems with the setup. The deployment took less than an hour."

"The dashboards for this solution could be improved. We would like to divide the dashboards to give a clear view to our management team to show what we have and what deficiencies exist in our network."
"The root cause analysis and installation faults are not clear."
