"The flexibility of the tool is valuable. It is very robust. It has a very robust configuration capability."
"One of the most important features is stopping lateral movement across our network."
"The interface is really friendly. It's simple to understand."
"Most valuable features are the network maps and server and network response time."
"Great network monitoring, looking at anomaly detection and evaluation."
"Cisco Stealthwatch has reduced the amount of time to detect an immediate threat."
"There are already many functionalities, so I don't think there is anything to improve."
"This product alleviates the day-to-day headaches for us, in regards to metrics."
"If you are using Darktrace or NAC solutions you can integrate Stealthwatch."
"Stability is the most valuable feature we have seen in this solution."

"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."
"It would be better to connect to an application portal from any device. Documentation and support could be better."
"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."
"On the cloud, when you make some changes, it may be difficult."
"The user interface should be improved as it is not very easy to work with the updates."
"They could provide a single-box solution to manage tools for 4000 users. Additionally, they could add extra features to enhance remote micro connection."
"The overall visibility into the actual device itself would be helpful. I don't just want support-specific data, but also to be able to see information such as CPU and other internal components or usage of the devices."
"I would like to see it better organized when I'm looking at it."
"I would like to see a hybrid solution that can work without being connected directly to the internet for those destinations."
"It's a good solid solution but integration with Network Access Control products with Cisco ISE would be good."
"I would like to see some improvement when it comes to reporting."
"If they can make this product more web-based, that would be amazing."
"The reporting of day-to-day metrics still has room for improvement."
"I would like to see better filters."
