The blocking feature is great. It acts as an in-line blocker. Any malicious traffic that you see or anything, really, it can block the traffic. That feature has an intelligent way of detecting. It has a good software embedded in it, and it goes well integrated with the IBM product. It's an intelligent device that you can write in a simple way and tries to block malicious traffic.

The configuration definition and the policies are very simple. It's very user-friendly.

The XGS 5000 series is suited for our data center and that is really good in terms of the traffic that it can handle and the throughput it can handle - including the volume of traffic, the inbound and outbound that it can handle. The XGS feature for the 7000 series is really good.

The initial setup is simple. 

The most valuable feature is its simplicity.

It is quick to integrate with transaction systems.
