"The solution has good performance."
"The team has full visibility of the users that connect allowing them to keep control of who is in the network and what data they are allowing to come in and out."

"For a basic setup, implementation is quite easy."
"Thanks to all these security processes, our users can access our infrastructure with the certainty that we will not be compromised."
"The solution implemented in the cloud allows us to easily scale in cases of user increase."
"The most important feature of Check Point Remote Access VPN is the multiple factor authentication."
"The tool is easy to configure and use. We integrated it with Active Directory to manage user authentication. It's intuitive and transparent, making it simple for users to use. It connects automatically to the VPN whenever users turn on the laptop. The product is efficient and offers centralized control."
"Scaling Perimeter 81 was easy to do."
"The feature that I have found to be most valuable is the reputation that the company has regarding privacy. Nowadays, this is critical, especially when you do all of your work online."

"The benefits are really built into the underlying protocol, however, Perimeter81 makes these available in a user-friendly way."

"We encounter challenges for the product’s installation and troubleshooting processes compared to other VPN products."

"The cost of maintenance is high compared to most products in the market."
"Improved scalability would allow the solution to handle larger numbers of users and devices without a significant impact on performance."
"There are a few areas where the solution could be improved. For instance, we sometimes encounter connectivity issues, which can be problematic. Recently, I experienced a connectivity issue while trying to move to Azure. Connectivity issues can be quite frustrating."

"The overall UI could be improved and updated to bring a simpler feel to the application."
"The platform still lacks relevant dashboards and the ability to customize them based on our needs."

"It would be nice to have a notification sound when Perimeter81 disconnects, as I sometimes don't notice when the icon shows that it's disconnected, and I end up wasting time waiting for my browser to load a page that shows an error, usually error 404."
