AlgoSec Stability

ChristopherWalsh
Vice President Head of Information Security at Itaú
It is set and forget. I don't have a lot of Linux or Unix experience, at least not in the last 20 years. So, that has been removed from me. The appliance comes and we connect to the command line. Anything I need to do is menu-driven. So, it is easily maintained by people whose skill set changed from hands-on to management quite awhile ago.

The stability is fantastic. We haven't had an issue with stability at all.
Two people are needed for maintenance (someone for backup plus me). Maintenance on it is fairly limited. It is very automated in the way that it handles all our data and firewall needs.

I think the solution is pretty stable. There has rarely been an instance when we needed to reboot to fix something. It has happened, but it's uncommon. Overall, I would say it's highly stable.

The stability has been great. We had a minor bug with the latest version and development. I did work with support to get that ironed out. They resolved it so right now, it looks to be very stable. And we are looking to put that into production shortly.

Product hotfixes are released regularly and are a breeze to install. I have dealt with other products that always promising to fix bugs, but it takes months or longer for the next patch to appear. AlgoSec is on top of this and in my opinion is a real leader with bug fixes.

Sulochana Edirisuriya
Senior Systems Engineer with 51-200 employees
It is generally stable. As I mentioned, the only problem the customers are worried about is the technical response time from AlgoSec. If you have to contact tech support the project will get delayed. The customers are comparing it because, for example, in their environment they have Palo or Check Point, and their support levels are much higher. With them, when you open a ticket, after a few minutes you can check and get the opinion from the tech or check if an engineer is available. If it's a critical issue, you can always talk to him within hours and fix the issue. So they always compare that level to AlgoSec's support level. That's the only issue that we have to explain to them. The customer's opinion is this is a non-critical device because this is not a firewall. But we manage firewalls so that kind of level of support should be given.

We are still involved in debugging a lot of stuff because we have to accommodate the solution to our large IT network. As our company and network are really large, we have a lot of jobs to do. Even with this powerful tool, it is not immediate.

Regional Sales Engineer at RedSeal, Inc.
If you hit a bug with mass changes, do you troubleshoot on AlgoSec or the firewall? Now, you have two products that you have to tackle for bugs. The two vendors then finger point and you waste time. That is why having the firewall and firewall manager together from a vendor, like Palo Alto, is better.
