I like the simple UI. And deployment is a breeze, much easier than Cisco. Those are the two biggest selling points for me.
Plus, it's easy to manage and troubleshoot thanks to the lightweight components.

One of the things that I like about Portnox is the fact that in Portnox you are able to manage your network devices, like your switches or routers, using that instead of logging into the console of, say, a switch or a router. You can see the GUI of development from Portnox. It shows a lot of whatever activities you want to do just when you enable your ports. You can work offline as well.
The initial setup is simple.
It's a stable product.
The scalability is good.
It's good for security. I once saw a machine accessing us that wasn't on our domain, and I immediately just dispatched the necessary policy.
View full review »The most important feature is that this solution is agentless. So, you don't have to install any agents on endpoints.
Its installation is relatively easy and straightforward. It can be done without disrupting the end-users.
The end-users love the visibility. They get insights into the devices or endpoint devices that are on their work.

The most valuable feature of the product in our case is the network visibility. The product gives us a very good view of what's happening on the network and we can take action proactively. It also provides security. Our network isn't open to everyone in the organization. It's open only to people who have a real need to work on the network. The product helps us control that access.
It also helps that the product is self-sufficient. We don't need to allocate employee resources to the maintenance and monitoring unless something goes wrong. It is all automated. We get alerts and we react according to the alerts we receive without a dedicated team that monitors the solution. We're a team and we work together on other things while the product monitors the system. When we get alerts, that's when we deal with it.

NAS view page gave a virtual graphical view of the switches, similar to the physical view, and just like how you see the ports on them.
There is an add-on feature for application control to kill unwanted applications when launched on a user's device.
It has a feature to check the compliance state of computers. An example is for an antivirus. It checks if it was installed, installed but not running, or not installed, then it defines policy action based on compliance status, which it applies.
It supports a good number of known antivirus products.
It has scheduling reports for backward review of incidents.
Its knowledge base refers you to similar tickets or solutions.

Profiling to me is the solution's most valuable aspect. It gives you an extra edge, and you've got visibility on the status of the endpoints that are connected to your network. It becomes very easy for you to quickly update, and be able to see the level of availability that you have in the environment. It becomes very easy for you to manage your goals before they can even cause any issues.
For a network access control solution, Portnox is a very good solution. It offers great integration in heterogeneous environments that have a number of different vendor equipment. It is not limited, say, to one vendor. For a network access control solution, it's a very good solution.
Their dashboards are great and very easy to navigate.
It's so easy to set up, you may not need outside assistance.
