We were using it for QoS modeling to ensure that we were properly modeling QoS, and it basically said here is what you need to fix to get this QoS done, whether it is ACL or something else. It would either push or recommend. If you have the right credentials, you could also push. It is very good if you are a Cisco shop. It gives you reporting, latency, and bandwidth utilization for your applications, so you can do good capacity management planning. There are a lot of pieces that LiveNX can give you. It is a total NPM solution for SD-WAN."
"Centralized management of multiple devices, and GUI improvement, could reduce the learning curve."
"We want to see more detailed logging, such as audit logging, as this would significantly enhance the solution's reporting. We currently get some information from logs, but more would be better."

"If the price was lower, it would be a bit more attractive, as an option, to the customers."
"I would like to see more improvements with respect to threat intelligence."
"Fortinet FortiWeb needs to improve the way it's configured. Common services like publishing exchange should be done in one click only."

"We would like to know more about the integration with the hardware or security products, such as Gemalto, because we need to move to that point."
"It is not as robust as other NPM solutions. For instance, there is a problem while labeling specific applications. It works well with well-known applications, but when you have to put in new applications that are not very known and set them up with names, ports, URLs, or some protocols, it is not as intuitive."
"Improved documentation and more responsive customer support can help in addressing issues faster."
"They need to create a more simplified UI."
"Sometimes the solution does not register devices properly and that is a bug."
