CAST Highlight Cons review quotes

Right now, the intent matching is strong for general topics such as ease of use, but for niche B2B terms such as HIPAA compliance or multi-tenant architecture, it sometimes misses context.

CAST Highlight is not that stable because it has a lot of downtime, and the errors are not that clear when something is down.

If I received categorization in containerization blockers, it would save time.

The reports that describe the issues of concern are rather abstract and the issues should be more clearly described to the user.

Its price should be better. It is a pretty costly tool. They have two products: CAST Highlight and CAST AIP. I would expect CAST Highlight to have the Help dashboard and the Engineering dashboard. These dashboards are currently a part of CAST AIP, and if these are made available in CAST Highlight, customers won't have to use two different products all the time.
