Cons
"The product's price is high.""The initial setup is a bit complex in terms of deployment and configuration""The initial setup of Cisco Stealthwatch Cloud is complex.""When I used to work on it, I just didn't see anything new happening for about a year and a half.

We have since we have integrated these things. But a direct email for critical alerts should be there. So, I would like to enhance the critical event configuration.""Cisco Stealthwatch Cloud could improve the graphical user interface. It could be a more user-friendly graphical user interface. so that. Not everybody's a cyber security professional, most of the customers that I deal with are not very skilled. The terms that they use in the solution are quite understandable for a normal CIO."
