"Even though the monitoring is pretty good, there is some room for improvement there."
"I would like to either see the price reduced or have it packaged with other products to give better value for the money."
"I would like to see more customization to adjust for the WAN lock-out due to our unexpected power outages."
"Enhancements are needed to improve the stability."
"The price is the only thing that could be improved. Citrix is not a cheap solution."
"Citrix SD-WAN's knowledge base has a few missing things, so you may need to seek help from support."
"Citrix should continue to offer a perpetual licensing model because it is very important to us."
"I am happy with this product. If anything, its price can be reduced. It is a bit expensive."
"Certainly, there are areas that require enhancement, and the current focus is on improvements. Presently, I believe that the emphasis should be on enhancing user interface (UI) features, particularly over end devices. The issue arises when attempting to log in to Versa from other devices, as the UI is not device-specific. Consequently, guiding someone to log in to Versa antivirus becomes challenging. Despite the absence of issues on the website, the lack of a login scope impedes graphical representation of user data or databases. Since work databases support only a limited range of features, I recommend augmenting features for end devices to address these limitations."
"The support needs to be improved."
"There are limitations when you connect from multiple locations. It does not work as expected. If you have more than 400 users, then it will choke. It will not perform as expected."
"The solution's current customer support is not that good. So, they need to improve that. Also, the solution's UI is quite complex, so they need to simplify it."
"The smaller units lack a lot of functionality."
"Future releases should contain AI for the voice feature."
"The security should be improved."
"I heard about them for the first time just before I started working on Versa. They do have blogs for information, but they could publicize more about the documentation and architecture. It doesn't seem to have that much exposure, and they should work on their customer base more."
