Cons
"There must be a more easy-to-use GUI."

More Netgate TNSR Cons →

"Configurations can be a bit complex."

More Aruba Virtual Intranet Access Cons →

"What would be useful would be a notification/warning that a session is due to timeout after exceeding the default connection limit.""A Google Chrome extension would be handy instead of logging into the app.""The platform still lacks relevant dashboards and the ability to customize them based on our needs.""I would suggest adding more networking and security features that allow more customization within their platform.""In order to have to bypass the login using the website, a good feature for Perimeter 81 to have is a login instance in the Perimeter 81 application. I'm using a Mac and we don't have that functionality.""I don't know if it is technically feasible, however, if the Desktop App could be used as a Web App or a Chrome Extension it would be very nice.""The overall UI could be improved and updated to bring a simpler feel to the application.""One of the more negative experiences using Perimeter 81 is the fact that I am logged off after a pre-determined amount of time which cuts off access to some of my company's resources."
