"Sometimes integrating into a cluster can be difficult as you have to do it manually."
"The implementation process takes a while."
"The product is generally stable, but there have been instances, to my knowledge, where we faced issues in the controller during software upgrades.

"I would like to see improvements made to the user interface."
"If the solution came with a synchronous application, it would be particularly advantageous for small businesses operating across multiple sites."
