Cons

"I do not know the detailed pricing."
"It would be helpful to have more details about the monitoring of the infrastructure. It should have support for SNMP. This is something that is currently not there in the product."
"If there was better visualization in Flowmon Solution it would be good."
"The price of the license could be lower."
"There is room for improvement in third-party integrations, particularly with other vendors like Check Point and Palo Alto."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution could be better."
