What is most valuable?
What needs improvement?
Forcepoint Next Generation Firewall could change its interface, allowing standard or direct connect modes to be configured. While group design and configuration generally function well, there are issues related to OSSL. These issues may necessitate troubleshooting that involves accessing hidden features by adjusting product routes. This level of troubleshooting is currently restricted to technical personnel, not partners or customers.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Forcepoint Next Generation Firewall for a few years.
How are customer service and support?
Technical support is good outside Egypt.
