"The most valuable features of Pulse Connect Secure are multi-factor authentications, and VPNs and SSL VPNs we are using."
"The solution helps with principal decisions. It also helps with the security and configuration of many technologies."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"There must be a more easy-to-use GUI."
"The VPN remote Access blade could be improved."
"In the case of URL translation of the VPN Web portal, the requests made from the front end to the back end weren't valid (due to the use of dynamic subdomains). In the case of host translations, the request was made to the same host, however, we cannot specify the ports, which, in our case, are used to redirect to different servers."
"The ability to allow split-tunneling while still following our corporate policy needs to be on the table."

"I would like the support to be faster."
"They need to increase their timeout. Right now, it will fail after ten seconds, however, it shouldn't fail until after 20. If you don't get on your phone right away and check on your authentications, it will kick you out."
"In my organization, there aren't Linux users, however, I know it has difficulties offering secure access for customers who use this operating system."

"This solution normally works but at times, we have had trouble with connectivity."
"User experience and after-sales support could be better. For example, over the last couple of years, when this COVID scenario was going on, there were multiple attacks on these types of solutions. SQL has been attacked numerous times, and there were a lot of vulnerabilities, and our customers had to update and upgrade the devices every two weeks or every month. This was a headache. It could also be more scalable."
"The user experience has room for improvement."
"The product could use additional dashboards."
"The stability could be better. There are sometimes bugs in the system."
"The product's price is an area where improvements are required."
"The solution must be more user-friendly."
