What I like most about Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client is that it's easy to use, and that is its main advantage. You can use it without the need for any setup because it's centrally pre-installed, so you just need to log in with your username and password. I didn't experience any problems with the solution in terms of losing connectivity. It works very well every time.

It's great that this product is providing a virtual cloud-based service. With it, we have some servers in some other places, and we are able to connect with our local network provider. We are able to connect to those office servers and that's important to me.

You get up to 12 hours of connectivity in one session.

For some with a client list, you don't have to prepare any client beforehand. You just access the URL and you can download it, so that's easy. It doesn't require any prep on the client's end which makes implementation faster. It's an easy initial setup.

Technical support is always helpful.

It's stable.

Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client works well, we don't have any issues with it.

The most valuable feature of this solution is that it works all of the time.

In terms of speed, it depends on the bandwidth of the system rather than being an issue with Cisco. It's more of a bandwidth limitation issue.

Navin Jacob - PeerSpot reviewer
CTO at a tech services company with 5,001-10,000 employees

It's a very good solution. My teams are currently distributed all over the globe and leading the software engineering work and for business purposes. In both cases, we found that it's a very secure solution. When we combined it with Microsoft View, it gives a multi-factor authentication, plus a few other things, which makes it quite useful when we move to this remote way of working a couple of years back. 

Depending on the business needs, it's able to scale. When we were a small team of only 20 people working remotely. We were able to use a much slower configuration, and we were able to work based on the business needs. However, once when the pandemic happened, we had to scale up. We had to put in multiple teams working and building solutions. It was able to quickly add on software storage, memory, and other resources to be able to scale it. This software is able to scale to our needs. It's pretty heavy, intensive network usage that our company does, and in the face of that, it works quite well.

I'm more of a user than an admin. For me, it is very simple to use. I just double-click and there is a multi-factor authentication that happens, and I'm able to quickly login. I integrate it easily with our active directory. Using my single sign-on for my organization, I'm able to switch a profile, and I'm able to switch to a customer's plan. It's pretty convenient in terms of usage.

It does not slow down anything, unlike other solutions. It just puts a tunnel in place.

Most organizations are using Microsoft Active Directory, and it integrates well.

They are a market leader, and their security is quite good.

DevSecOps at AssureThink

The most valuable feature of Cisco AnyConnect is that you can connect to your organization's VPN network with just one click.

With so many staff working remotely right now, Cisco AnyConnect allows them to VPN into our company's network to access items behind their firewalls. This has allowed staff to stay home safely during the pandemic and to keep the network safer.

The ability to add multiple two-factor authentication options for the user to choose from when they log in has helped increase the security of our network, especially with so many people working remotely.

Using this app, we can manage all of the networks, whether ethernet or wireless.

You can also completely remove some less secure networks from your list so you would not connect them accidentally.

One more thing will be the inbuilt VPN connectivity option. Using it, you can connect to your VPN so there is no need to install a separate application.

The interface is very clean and easy to interact with.

There is an inbuilt diagnostics option that will automatically search for errors or issues in case you are facing any network connectivity problems. It will also give the IP address, strength, and security details about the network that you are currently connected to.

Each and every user will require a secret password, so I don't really care about sending the details. It's very secure.
