Naveenkumar Lakshman - PeerSpot reviewer

Unified cloud security has simplified multi-cloud visibility and streamlined developer workflows
Cloudanix could improve by addressing the limitations in terms of customization. The feature expectations suggest that integrating products such as Slack for IAM workflows or enhancing asset management visibility would give it overall weightage. Enhancing customization is necessary because the current limitations cause some drawbacks in its performance that should be improvised. Regarding needed improvements, I feel that the primary strength of Cloudanix lies in unified security governance and IAM. It needs further improvement in risk correlation and attack path analysis; additionally, it requires richer dashboards to enhance the UI and usability as well. The attack path analysis is a key area that needs further industry-level enhancement, while the integration aspect is a growing ecosystem that requires improvements over time. Additional improvements Cloudanix needs include enhancing the enterprise-grade support experience.

Effective product tracking and monitoring enhances daily operations despite needing documentation improvement
The documentation part of Workspace ONE UEM can be confusing. The documentation is not comprehensive compared to other VMware solutions or Microsoft documentation. Most people struggle to connect the dots when looking at the documentation. Even the training material and PowerPoint slide decks that trainers use are sometimes too confusing or overwhelming, with too much content but not enough clarity. The support side has recently become weaker compared to what it used to be with VMware. This is another area that needs improvement. Since working with Workspace ONE UEM from when it was AirWatch, it has improved significantly over the last five years. However, there are still some gray areas and scope for improvement, especially in documentation and workflow between different aspects of the solution.

"I would recommend this solution because it's simple for end-users."
"Support is helpful and responsive."
"It makes us more efficient in managing these devices, in lieu of not having it, that's for sure."
"Right now we don't see there's an MDM solution out there that's better than VMware Workspace ONE."
"VMware Workspace ONE is a platform that's really good at monitoring and managing mobile endpoints. It can be set up quickly and implemented easily. Technical support for this solution has always been good."
"Personally, VMware Identity Manager is useful for comparison purposes so that I can provide better solutions to my company's customers."
"I would rate the stability as eight out of ten."
"AirWatch has one of the best User Interfaces and it's quite easy to figure out where particular items are within the menu system."
 

Cons

"Cloudanix could improve by addressing the limitations in terms of customization."
"From an identity perspective, there is a lot of room for improvement when it comes to integration with other solutions. I would say it needs more capabilities in terms of direct integrations, including cloud identity solution integrations."
"The Content Locker cannot inherit permissions for the Windows Public Folder. If they could integrate with Microsoft on this point, it would be the perfect functionality."
"A room for improvement for this product is its integration with Microsoft. It could be better, though most of it is there."
"They do have a good integration, but there is a long way to go as far as integration is concerned. They need to integrate with the cloud solutions a little bit more."
"The security features could always use improvement, although there has already been a huge improvement from years ago."
"It's a costly product. It would help if they could offer it at a discount."
"There are some bugs that our team needs to work around."
"From an improvement perspective, there is a need for discounts to be offered by the solution since it is something that any organization can expect from the product."
