"It works well for any environment that wants to use a VPN."

"One of the most valuable features is keeping our data secure."

"Citrix Gateway improved the security of the access of our applications outside the network."

"I find Citrix Gateway valuable for its capabilities as a reverse proxy, providing security to applications exposed to the Internet."

"What I find most valuable about this solution, is that it runs seamlessly."

"The product enables us to collect logs from the systems."

"The technical support is very responsive and fast"

"There is no security, such as an antivirus and URL filtering mechanism, which is something that should be improved."

"The technical support from Cisco is not very good."

"Technical support could be improved."

"If the solution had a more advanced DNS, it would be an improvement."

"This product is not too expensive and there are no costs apart from the standard licensing fee."

"We pay approximately $15,000 a month but that includes everything together, such as hardware."

"I believe the pricing is comparable to SaaS"

"Pricing is very high if you do a comparison with what is available in the market."

"It is expensive and requires proper planning with strategy."

"The price could be lower."

"Citrix is quite expensive."

"The solution has a yearly licensing fee."

"I consider Citrix Gateway to be an expensive solution, generally ranging from $5,000 to $15,000 yearly, depending on the model."

"There are two or three different models, but you can actually have a CapEx where you purchase the unit outright and then there's a yearly maintenance cost on top for years two and three, and four, or you can actually do a subscription purchase through Citrix cloud and you pay on a monthly basis, or you can have a three-year subscription contract as well. I give the solution a six out of ten for its cost."
