"In the virtual deployment, you have a couple of choices depending on your needs and how much bandwidth you have that needs to be inspected."
"It is salable and technically sound."
"The traffic filter of this solution is very valuable to us, and to our clients."
"The most valuable feature is its IPS ability. You are able to balance security and connectivity."
"The tracking intelligence feature is very good. This solution provides us with the opportunity to detect threats in real-time."
"Cisco NGIPS is working well overall with our current needs."
"The initial setup is simple."
"The most valuable feature is its simplicity."
"The GUI user interface could be improved and the login is not very user friendly."
"The file trajectory, the trace in contamination files, could be improved."
"I would like to see Cisco NGIPS to include home office support in one single product."
"I would like to see a more user-friendly interface."
"The stability of the user console and some features could be easier to access."
