Find out what your peers are saying about Cisco, HPE Aruba Networking, Forescout and others in Network Access Control (NAC)."The solution enables us to do everything from one interface."
"Cisco ISE is a powerful solution. It gives us the ability to control who's accessing our network, and Cisco has made it very easy."
"Assisting a larger number of users in gaining access and guiding them through the process of getting on Cisco ISE has been seamless."
"I like the logging feature."
"It has all of the features available, in fact, more than what you need."
"With NAC, the profiling feature is valuable. We're able to see what we have out there in the network and dynamically assign policies to it. We can then use that to enforce TrustSec policy or anything else with NAC."
"The interface is pretty easy to use."
"We were originally a Cisco shop and Cisco ISE integrated well with our other Cisco switches and networks."
"The solution is scalable."
"The product is stable."
"I like that you can remove the admin rights from the user's computer and have control over the environment. That means you can delete the local admins and grant them proper privileges with the console. So, they will get proper permissions for applications they need, but we don't have to do it. In the domain where we don't have control, the user can only do specified actions, but not all of them."
"It offers great performance."
"The most valuable features of CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager are password management, session management, onboarding rules, platform customization, and safety management."
"The password rotation and the session recording are the most valuable features."
"We can do both server and endpoint protection."
"I am impressed with the product's seamless integration. The PAM wallet and enterprise password wallet are good also good."
"The user interface could be improved to make it more user-friendly."
"Difficult to figure out the protocols and nodes in order to implement correctly."
"The initial setup was a little bit complex. It's not that simple because it requires a lot of prerequisites for the solution to get a hold on."
"An issue with the product is it tends to have a lot of bugs whenever they release a new release."
"Segmentation can be improved."
"Cisco ISE requires a lot of time-consuming administration."
"The policies could be adjusted to make them more easily implementable."
"There is room for improvement in its ability to allow end users to self-enroll their devices. Instead, you should be able to assign that permission by AD group, which is currently not available."
"For an experienced system implementer it will take approximately one day. However, for somebody who is inexperienced it may take up to five days."
"CyberArk has some performance issues. For example, servers could not handle the solution when we first took CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager."
"The solution's pricing could be better."
"CyberArk meets clients' need very spot-on. It covers everything customers ask for. As for improvements, honestly, the feedback's been really positive. I haven't heard any specific areas that need work."
"The price of the solution should improve."
"Technical support is slow to respond when we run into issues."
"CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager can be better by making its UI more consistent."
"The solution can be complex to use at times."
