We performed a comparison between Portnox CORE and Ruckus Cloudpath based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Network Access Control (NAC) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It's easy to manage and troubleshoot thanks to the lightweight components."
"I am impressed with the solution's voucher capability and authentication. The tool is integrated with Active Direct storage."
"The Vidahost feature is currently in action, and it appears to be providing valuable data insights."
"It's a stable product."
"This is a self-sufficient network monitoring and security product that saves time and employee resources."
"Previous to the deployment we didn't have complete visibility of all the endpoints, all the devices that are connected to the network. But with the deployment of portnox, we could see all the devices and where they're connecting. We can equally segregate and apply different rules, policies to each location that we didn't monitor specifically."
"Technical support was very helpful when we needed them."
"The minute people have issues on their network, we can see what is happening right away."
"The ease of use is great, and the automation wizards can do a lot."
"The tool's most valuable features include the phenomenal functionality of DPSK. The ease of use, particularly when it is correctly set up, is remarkably simple. Tracking users is straightforward and dynamic. This allows us to identify where a user might encounter issues within the process."
"I find the solution to be very rich in features."
"Ruckus technical support is very good and helpful whenever we need them."
"The solution is easy to use, well designed, robust, and has good traffic capacity."
"The solution has good features for authentication, policies, and allowing users to self-provision devices for network access via their logins."
"Portnox CORE can improve on support for unmanaged switches (or hubs) and other brands of network devices. These kinds of devices are still in use in organisations, especially SMEs who cannot afford to buy a managed switch."
"We have been having some issues with it. That's why we're considering migrating to Portnox Clear due to some limitations with CORE."
"It could be a little cheaper."
"It would be good to integrate Portnox CORE with CLEAR."
"It might be beneficial to improve the ease of integrating the product with firewalls."
"The solution did have some stability issues, however, all I had to do was restart it."
"The licensing is based on a per-port price, even when you are not using all of the ports, and this is something that could be improved."
"The price could be better."
"The setup process is a bit complex."
"I believe the solution is missing some great features which are present in other solutions like Aruba, UiPath, and Cisco ISE."
"The solution could improve by adding more detailed information that customers have available on the dashboards."
"The tool needs to support multi-vendor environments. Currently, my experience with it has been primarily within Ruckus environments. However, I haven't explored it for multi-vendor scenarios. It would be great to see newer builds that are multi-vendor capable of full integration."
"The scalability could be better."
"The hardest part we've had to deal with is trying to find some physical product recently as everything is going like hotcakes."
