Highlights
The most valuable feature for us is the ability to offer firewall support to our clients.
The most valuable features are SD-WAN, URL filtering, IPS, and virus scanning.
The features I find most valuable is the VPN and the fact that we can apply our policies to the program.
Scalability is good; the company wants to be able to handle large customers.
Their GPS possibilities and the security that it has, especially the SD-WAN functionality, is very good.
The interface is very user-friendly and it is quite easy to use.
What I like best about this product are the support and the features.
