Citrix Gateway vs Lumen MPLS IP VPN comparison

"It is easy to set up and is stable. It is scalable as well, depending on the model."

"For our use case, it was scalable. There were at least 25 end users using this solution from remote locations. And once the connection was established, there weren't any complaints."

"It's a stable solution while it's running. We don't have to work on it a lot. There are not many bugs, so it's easy to use if you deploy successfully. You can be sure of an uninterrupted solution for quite a long time. Citrix is a good product."

"We haven't received any complaints or performance issues so far."

"The most valuable feature is that it is secure."

"The session monitoring capability is good."

"The ROI is significant because the solutions are adequate to protect the servers."

"Citrix Gateway offers an array of valuable features."

"It is a robust solution. You can scale it up as per your requirement."

"It would be nice if they offered easier setups and implementation wizards."

"At this time it costs 35% more than other solutions."

"The initial connection could be faster. That handshake takes a few seconds sometimes. That could be better and improved upon."

"It's extremely complicated and it's not intuitive. The solution requires a lot of training to get going on it."

"There could be a faster connection, increased user-friendliness, and more comprehensive dashboards for the platform."

"Technical support could be improved."

"The support experience has received mixed reviews, as not all support staff possess the necessary technical expertise to handle inquiries effectively."

"I would like to see better configuration of repairs and downloading certification."

"It should have better integration with other platforms. With the internet, very few innovations can be there, but there are some solutions that can be integrated into the solutions that we provide"

"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 is a license to use Citrix Gateway and it is less expensive to use when compared to other solutions."

"It costs about 4,000 a year."

"Usually with Citrix the issue is the pricing, especially for the African region. We believe it's really expensive."

"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."

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

"The price could be lower."

"As a provider, we need to have licenses from the regulatory authorities. Once we have those licenses in place, we can provide connections to our customers. So, getting licenses is a challenge. It is a time-consuming process. Other than that, there is no massive challenge."
