Featured Reviews

Deepak  Nagar - PeerSpot reviewer
A fast and scalable solution that is secure and can be modified according to the customers’ requirements
The tool is easy to deploy. We have to deploy the agent on the user’s machine. The agent takes 20 minutes to be installed. The tool is deployed in the data center. If the prerequisites are set up already, the product can be deployed in two or three hours. It is a cloud-based solution. We need two support engineers and one senior resource with more than seven years of experience in networking to deploy and maintain the tool. We need one product manager for coordination.
An-Pham - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers a user-friendly UI and remote access of PCs to users
The product's initial setup phase was a little bit complex because there was a need to work on the configuration part. For the deployment process, you need access to an executable file, which can be a .ASA file, along with a configuration file to edit. When you open the application, you have to put in the config file in the software and then run it to make it work. The solution is deployed on an on-premises model. The solution can be deployed in a few hours. If you have some assistance from the IT service or IT team, the deployment can be done within a few hours.
