We use this solution for mapping our applications as well as our firewall infrastructure, and for automating our scripts.
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
The features that I have found to be the most valuable are the collecting of statistics, reporting, and implementing changes to particular environments on a scheduled basis with no manual intervention.
What needs improvement?
Anything to do with storage needs improvement.
Storage is always very expensive; it fills up a lot and it's not very good at cloud-based solutions.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using the latest version of this solution for two years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
It's a stable solution, it's very good.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
This solution is scalable. It runs in the virtual environment.
There are approximately 300 users who are using this solution on a daily basis.
How are customer service and technical support?
Technical support is good and I would rate them a nine out of ten.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
Previously, we were manually running scripts from Linux.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is simple.
It took a few weeks to set up and test, before going live.
There is some maintenance required. We have to allocate the storage often.
We have a team within App Ux, the vendor, who supports us, and the engineering team within the F5M security team manages that.
What about the implementation team?
We used a company to help with the implementation.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
Pricing is reasonable. It's not cheap, but it's not expensive, it's in the middle.
What other advice do I have?
If you are a heavy user of eCommerce services, use cloud-based solutions, and you would like a central point with a single pane of glass to get any kind of statistics or visibility around your applications, this solution is a good tool.
I would rate this solution a ten out of ten.
