"It's an ideal gateway solution for small and medium businesses, i.e., around 300 devices can be easily handled."
"Advanced malware protection helps us to prevent any virus from contaminating computers. We also have DLP for prevention. And AnyConnect has a feature that lets us do some sandboxing to evaluate files that arrive from the outside. So before opening them, we can check them with the sandbox."
"The solution provides seamless connectivity to the VPN without delay."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of use."
"It does not slow down anything, unlike other solutions."
"Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client is very stable."
"The solution is quite stable."
"I think Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client is stable."
"What I like most about Cisco AnyConnect VPN is its reliability and stability."
"Perimeter 81 provides a very secure and non-disruptive experience."
"It has provided a seamless gateway to much-needed platforms."
"The solution provides us with an easy way to configure and join the VPN with Perimeter 81."
"Our operators can work from home without any problems."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The setup is really easy...I rate the support team a ten out of ten."
"Distributing the agent was very simple, allowing us to enforce security posture on our devices (i.e. S1, Disk-encryption, etc.)."
"The ease of use not only translates to quick adoption rates - it also ensures that our employees remain compliant with our cybersecurity protocols, enhancing the overall security posture of our organization."
"There must be a more easy-to-use GUI."
"The support could be more proactive in their recommendations. I noticed that the Cisco support agents tend to leave customers to do what they need to do in many ways, and you can choose how you want to do it. However, it would be great if they could proactively be involved in best practices and let other customers know how most people are doing it."
"There is a speed limit for VPNs because of the encryption."
"Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client is a stable solution. However, there have been times it has not worked and I needed to call our IT department. It could be more stable."
"In the next release, Cisco should add a chat feature."
"I have been working with the same interface for the last ten years. I would say that it needs some improvements made."
"I haven't found there are any shortcomings in the product. For how I use it, it works well."
"Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client would be perfect if it weren't for the fingerprint feature."
"Even when your internet speed is good, once you connect to the VPN the speed gets automatically reduced, which is worrisome."
"I'd love to learn more about all of the features. Maybe a monthly spotlight of features or having a banner that explains more ways certain features could be used would be helpful."
"In order to have to bypass the login using the website, a good feature for Perimeter 81 to have is a login instance in the Perimeter 81 application. I'm using a Mac and we don't have that functionality."
"Currently, I am not able to define a different country or location, which can result in negative experiences as the tool is being recognized by websites and this can make it difficult to access them or force me to disable the program temporarily."
"In the future, maybe P81 can improve the network traffic balancing and redundancy."
"The platform still lacks relevant dashboards and the ability to customize them based on our needs."
"The overall UI could be improved and updated to bring a simpler feel to the application."
"It would be nice to have a notification sound when Perimeter81 disconnects, as I sometimes don't notice when the icon shows that it's disconnected, and I end up wasting time waiting for my browser to load a page that shows an error, usually error 404."
"What would be useful would be a notification/warning that a session is due to timeout after exceeding the default connection limit."
