"Application management can be improved."

"Something that I've noticed that Forcepoint lacks, is the training that they offer to their end-customers"
"Deep Discovery is easy to manage, but there is still room for improvement on the administration and operations side. Competing products have a cleaner interface that makes it easier to manage their products. Trend Micro offers a lot of features in one product suite, but it can be unwieldy for the customer to manage all that with a single interface."
"The solution could be more secure."
"Scalability becomes an issue when managing a higher number of customers."
