Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client Reviews

This solution allows our staff to be able to work from home. Our students are also able to connect to our internal network to do their work.

The solution is valuable because we need it for both use cases. Our students are our customers, and our staff needs to do their work.

The deployment of the agent software for the final customer could be simpler and more helpful.

We have been using this solution for three years now. 

The solution is very, very stable. 

It's a very scalable solution. Including staff and students, we have 9,000 users. We are using the maximum licensing they offer, and it's very affordable given the value. 

The initial setup is very straightforward. 

The deployment was done in-house and it took about one week. We didn't need any technical support, so it was perfect. 

We have yearly licensing and it's very affordable. 

My advice to those considering the product is to just do it because the solution is very good, very scalable, and very easy to maintain. I think it's a very, very good option.

I would rate this solution as a ten out of ten. 

We use the Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client as a VPN to connect to our VMs.

The most valuable feature of Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client is the one-click VPN connection. Additionally, the performance is good.

Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client could improve by adding faster connectivity.

I have been using the Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client for approximately two years.

Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client is stable.

Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client

We have more than 10 people using the solution in my organization.

I have not used another similar solution previously.

Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client was installed by our IT team.

Our company does the implementation of the solution.

I rate Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client a ten out of ten.

Our company uses the solution as a VPN for 2,000 developers. 

The solution is a super product that works as designed. 

The solution's performance and stability are average.

The licensing model is expensive. 

I have been using the solution for two years. 

The stability and performance are average. 

The solution is quite scalable. 

I have not needed technical support. 

We previously used Check Point VPN.

The setup was easy and completed in one day. 

We implemented the solution in-house. Maintenance is performed by a team of six technicians. 

The solution is based on an annual licensing model and is expensive. 

Check Point VPN and the solution were evaluated but the process was conducted by other staff so I do not have additional details.

I rate the solution a seven out of ten. 

We primarily use the solution for connection. We connect to the internet with it. 

It serves the purpose of allowing us to see the connection. 

The initial setup is easy.

Whenever there's a drop in internet or a connection fluctuation, it gets disconnected automatically. If it would automatically reconnect, that would be the best thing so that we can have continuity and no breakdown in connectivity. It would save us from re-authenticating. 

I've been using the solution for four years now. 

The product is stable unless there's a fluctuation in connections as the internet can fluctuate anytime. We can lose stuff, or the whole connectivity, the moment there's a slight microsecond of connectivity. It tries to reconnect. However, it's not always successful, and that's where the pain is.

I can't say the solution is very scalable. You need a specific version. Even if they come out with a new one, I'm not sure scaling is on the list of priorities. 

We have more than 50 people using the product currently.

We only really dealt with them during installation. The installation itself has a lot of hurdles to get the right version and right connectivity. We had our internal support team and they worked with Cisco to resolve everything. 

Cisco is recognized across the industry, which is why we used them.

The implementation is quite easy - if the person is aware of the right version. The only challenge that I have been facing with Cisco VPN is the version. If we are using an independent version, it's next to impossible. Therefore, we have to always ensure that we are using the right version of Cisco VPN, as there are multiple versions available on the internet and one can download anything. 

Once you are using the right version, it hardly takes more than five minutes to set everything up.

The version I am using is free. There is no license cost. 

We are a customer and end-user.

I'm unsure which version of the solution we're on now. 

I'd advise new users to ensure they get the right version. Otherwise, they will run into trouble. 

I'd rate the solution six out of ten. 

I use Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client all the time to connect to my operator's portal.

The most valuable feature of the Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client is its ease of use and simple interface. It's always available as long as I have a good network connection. 

I have been using the Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client for more than 10 years.

Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client is highly stable.

Since the pandemic, we have been forced to work from home. Everyone that wants to continue working, and access the corporate resources we have to use a VPN. Almost everyone uses this solution in my organization, which is approximately 1,000 people.

I have not used technical support.

The initial setup of the Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client is very easy. The link for the solution was given to me by my headquarters and I installed it. Initially, we needed separate login credentials, but now we only need to use our normal corporate login credentials to log into the solution.

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.

I rate Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client a nine out of ten.

Our primary use case for the Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client has been remote access, especially since the start of the pandemic. We use it to give our technicians access to our applications. 

We also use the Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client to create secure firewall-to-firewall connections for certain applications.

The Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client is easy for end user to use. However, it can be difficult for the developer or solutions engineer to use because you need to have the infrastructure in place first. This is to do with key validation, certificates, and domain trust.

The setup could be simplified for solutions engineers with a wizard. 

I initially started using Cisco routers and switches in 1998, but I stopped using them for a while as I was focused on my other work. I started using Cisco again in 2012 and have been using it since as I do a lot of security solutions. 

Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client is very stable. 

Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client is scalable. However, the bandwidth and latency you need to use this solution is sometimes not available here in Africa. We run into trouble sometimes because of bandwidth. 

Overall, I prefer Microsoft's tech support because I noticed that Cisco does not provide enough of it. Sometimes, we do not have access to tech support. Also, you can only get tech support for registered devices.

I recommend it. However, you first have to be sure that you have all the basics in place. You have to do your research and understand what the requirements of the solution are. It works for millions of people, so it will work for you. 

It is also important to run some tests. That is what I always do. Don't go to the real alderman directly. Make your own tests.

We mainly use this solution for training and meetings.

The most valuable feature is AnyConnect's reliability.

In the next release, Cisco should add a chat feature.

I've been using this solution for fifteen to sixteen years.

AnyConnect is more stable than any other VPN connection, in my experience.

AnyConnect is scalable.

Cisco's technical support is pretty good.

Positive

I would rate AnyConnect as eight out of ten.

We use AnyConnect for remote work and we are customers of Cisco. 

The solution is easy to deploy and has good NAC integration.

The GUI really needs to be upgraded. If you want to use the solution, you have to be comfortable with the CLI. In addition, we have quite a lot of bug issues that need to be resolved. 

We've been using this product for over two years. 

AnyConnect is a stable solution. 

The solution scales well. 

Cisco technical support is good, they are responsive and act quickly to resolve any issues. 

The initial setup was straightforward. Anyone working from home uses this solution and we have around 1,000 users. 

I rate this solution seven out of 10.
