Cisco Secure Client (including AnyConnect) Reviews

We primarily use it for working from home. 

It's flexible and easy to use. You just need to enter the VPN details, and you can connect immediately and access what you need. Of course, access depends on the whitelist and access list configured by the network team.

It is easy to set up.

The solution is stable and reliable.

It is scalable. 

There is nothing they need to improve at this moment. 

I've been using the solution for ten years or more. 

The product has been stable. There are no bugs or glitches, and it doesn't crash or freeze. It is reliable. The performance has been good. 

We have 30,000 people using the product right now.

We have found that it scales well and as needed.

We're happy right now. We're using it, and we have a contract already with Cisco. We'll use it as necessary.

The initial setup was straightforward and very simple. It was not overly complex or difficult.

The finance department handles the licensing. it's not an aspect I'm directly involved in. 

Although I don't know the exact version number, we are on the latest iteration of the product.

We are Cisco partners.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.

I would suggest that potential new users make sure that whatever is allowed into the infrastructure and network is configured by their network operation center. This should be in line with the requirements of the company or the client since cyber security is super important nowadays. You cannot afford to have a data breach. This is important especially if employees or users are tech-savvy. There could be leakage if they know how to go back and tweak the settings.

It's for mobile users accessing corporate resources from the internet.

For some with a client list, you don't have to prepare any client beforehand. You just access the URL and you can download it, so that's easy. It doesn't require any prep on the client's end which makes implementation faster. It's an easy initial setup.

Technical support is always helpful.

It's stable.

The solution has the potential to scale. 

If there's any cloud version available, instead of on-premise, that would be ideal. That's one thing that could be helpful.

I've had a few cases over the last five years

I haven't received any complaints about this solution. We haven't had a word of many bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze on clients. It is reliable. 

The solution can scale to a certain point. Up to 500, companies should be okay. After that, we may run into problems. That's our product design. That's maybe not have something to do with the product itself.

Typically, our clients get licenses for 20 to 30 people. All levels of an organization can have access to the product. Anyone can use it. 

We provide technical support to our clients. 

In terms of us reaching out to support, it's rare that I get disappointed with Cisco tech. They are quite responsive and knowledgeable as well.

The initial implementation process is simple. 

The size of the deployment depends on the amount of personnel you'll need, however, in our experience, we've only ever needed one or two people to deploy it. 

After we get an order from the customer, they have some admin work to be done, which takes probably up to two weeks or three weeks. After three weeks, we have the project manager and the engineer assigned to the opportunity. Then, it might take up to ten days.

Maintenance is minimal. We may only need one or two people to handle maintenance. We don't have many issues with the solution.

We provide assistance to our clients in terms of setting the solution up.

Licensing usually involves a yearly contract. I don't have any details in terms of what the exact pricing is, exactly. 

The pricing is all-inclusive. You don't need to concern yourself with add-on costs. 

We are a partner. We sell to and implement for our customers.

We tend to use the latest version that we have on our server. It may not be the latest in the market, however, our engineering team chooses the best software for our service, so it's the latest on our server. The difference is that it may not be the latest in the market.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

The initial setup of the Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client is very easy.

The solution is very stable and very reliable. What I recommend is for others to have a stable network, that is all. The solution works well.
