Flexible, provides insights into the infrastructure, and monitors movement of files effectively
The product is flexible. It takes care of our cloud infrastructure. The tool meets our needs. The normal compliance policies work well. The behavior analysis features give us insight into what is going on in the network. The tool has been pretty effective in monitoring the files that are being moved. The network integration has been fine.
Sumit Bhanwala - PeerSpot reviewer
Cloud-based platform simplifies device and data center management
I find it to be good. The solution is cloud-based with the latest inspection engines, which I find to be amazing. We are less dependent on data centers and device management, which reduces our efforts significantly. It improves our device management, data center management, and updating devices. We need fewer engineers for this management, and it reduces time and efforts for data center management, device upgrades, and IT support.
