"Our clients can see all of their past actions or the wrong activity done on the network. We can load the diagnostics for the business."

"They can work on its ability to work in a distributed environment. It's a mainframe product. As many companies move to the cloud, depending on what cloud models they choose, such as a public, hybrid, or private cloud, it should be deployable. I am not sure if it can be deployed on those platforms. It has been there since the '50s or '60s, and it's still scalable. It has survived all these years, and it's scalable to many platforms, but I don't know about the cloud."
"I would like my team and me to be able to use simple browsers, like Chrome, to be able to access mainframe data and provision users using the browser."
"It needs longer rules. The max rule is 32K."
"This solution doesn't audit the network."
"One feature that is missing is the ability to have a secret server that is always encrypted."
"The support could improve."
"They should simplify the integration and work with different vendors and mechanisms."
"Some of our customers were asking about latency when the application wants to get to the database."
"An easy, friendly user interface would be nice to have, since this would enable administrators to identify important events with a prompt response."
"We would like to see the ability to administer and manage the solution through Enterprise Manager 13c, and development of the dashboards that are generally missing."
"Stability could be improved, we have had some challenges"
