"The initial setup is very fast and very easy."
"The feature I find most valuable, is the reality graphical user interface."

Cons

"Management of the console could be simplified and made more user-friendly because right now it's not very easy to use."
"Their support for issues related to the portal or feature problems isn't great."
"They have automated response capability, and they're moving more and more into SOAR capability. They have built-in deception technology with host-file users, phantoms, etc. We used to call them honeypots. So, they're on target. They're doing a really good job, and they should continue to improve with SOAR."
"The command line interface could be improved."
"Their deployment needs some work, especially with integration with remote monitoring management systems like Datto AutoTask or ConnectWise Automate."
"Automation could be improved, and orchestration could be added to the features."
