"I can see what traffic is going on. I can easily block any programs from attacks.""The solution has improved my organization because I can see what traffic is happening and I can use it to block and prevent attacks.""Easily manageable in a variety of environments.""Ease of use is the best feature of the product.""I like how you can configure the rules. There is the task for the rules and a task for the network configuration. It also provides SMD filtering, and it can be integrated with the active directory for the users, their mission, and the VPN configuration. We are here in Sudan, and Stormshield didn't work in Sudan for more than a decade. Stormshield is a very strong firewall and very easy to configure and maintain. I am just working with the firewall solution, and we don't have any other solutions like endpoint solutions or something like that.""I like that it works fine. Stormshield is a very good solution.""The scalability of the solution is good.""A very robust product."

Cons
"The implementation policy needs improvment.""The solution should improve its scalability because it cannot support enterprise networks.""The price is obviously a more sensitive area to focus on.""The reporting should be improved as well as the backup.""The solution's pricing could be a problem for some small businesses.""The setup is a bit complex, so we needed help from a consultant.""I have problems with the email filtering. Emails pass through without any filtering affecting them. When I get back to them and tell them this is the issue, they check everything and say it is not in their database signature and they have to update it. But you know, by that time, my user has already opened it.""The product is at its end-of-life. There is nothing to improve as it will be discontinued."

"The filtering configuration could be better. We have some difficulties with the filtering configuration and the filter extension. It's not that easy. It's not that straightforward. In the next release, I would like to see a reporting system. Stormshield doesn't have any tutorials on how to do the configuration and things like that. They just have documentation on the website. If you want to configure, for example, Cisco or Fortinet, you can find tutorials on YouTube. They show you how to configure the features, and so on. In Stormshield, there is nothing on social media or the internet on how to configure different things. The lack of documentation or the lack of material makes it difficult for others to adopt this solution.""The SD card could be more secure.""It could be better if it were more user-friendly. It's too complicated for us to use it. The price could be better as well.""Not all the fields are activated yet and we were informed that it will take at least one month.""This solution has a big problem with web filtering and it needs to be improved.""A more user-friendly interface would be helpful.""Stormshield Network Security is quite expensive.""With Stormshield, there are difficulties joining things, and it can be complex depending on the architecture."
