"We appreciate the fact that this solution allows us to segregate two virtual machines that are in the same cluster.""Nutanix Flow is straightforward to install. You only need to select a checkmark that you want to enable Nutanix Flow.""Nutanix Flow has a lot of data protection features. It's also valuable for operations and management. It's a big solution that works well with different solutions and is suitable for most business cases.""It allows for policies that enable complete visibility and traffic control.""Nutanix Flow Network Security is a simple solution that is usable, easy to understand, and easy to deploy.""The network view was excellent as it allowed us to expand the server view and visualize all connections it made within the environment. This was particularly useful in identifying the path of our data and not just its location within the data center.""It is a very stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.""Flow Network Security's most valuable features are user-friendliness, the console, and policy creation."

Cons
"On the cloud, when you make some changes, it may be difficult.""It would be better to connect to an application portal from any device. Documentation and support could be better.""One limitation is that it's harder to provide access to multiple applications in the company with Appgate, but that's probably because of poor management.""The user interface should be improved as it is not very easy to work with the updates.""One thing that kind of sticks out to me is the ability to do a proper non-split tunnel. VPN tunnel-wise, it is not really a true unsplit tunnel, but I think that's just because of the way it's designed. A split VPN basically allows your system to talk to other systems without being forced down the tunnel. A VPN running in a non-split tunnel mode forces all the traffic down the tunnel to wherever you're VPNing to. It forces the traffic down so that the traffic is subject to the firewall and rules that you have in your corporate environment and such. It helps to prevent remote malicious folks that may be talking directly to that box from piggybacking into the corporate environment through it. They do it partially, but it would be nice to see more of an enterprise-level solution there.""They could provide a single-box solution to manage tools for 4000 users. Additionally, they could add extra features to enhance remote micro connection."

More Appgate SDP Cons →

"I would rate Flow Network Security's stability seven out of ten - it could be improved.""The documentation offered by the product is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required.""While the graphical interface of Nutanix Flow Network Security could have been improved, and some of the reporting features needed extra work, the product's features were similar to VMware's NSX. The difference lay more in the presentation and user interface.""The solution’s pricing could be improved.""We would like the reporting functionality of this solution to be improved.""The most difficult part is the configuration of the initial blueprints.""Nutanix Flow's networking features could use some improvement. Also, I don't know if it's currently supporting load balancing or not.""For customers who are running Nutanix Flow and AHV, the largest area for improvement is in the disaster recovery environments. To automate the populate of rules from one side to the other side in case of disaster you report everything on the disaster recovery site, and you have all the rules automatically applied. This was something that was being built when I left Nutanix. It might already be available. Additionally, the usability of the rules editor could improve."
