Featured Reviews

Nazish Sameer Shaikh - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Network Security Engineer at UNITE HERE HEALTH
Simplifies the management of complex data networks, but its technical support could be improved
Sometimes, we have to use SD-WAN support for the solution, which can be improved by adapting some features that will help our approach to network services. The solution can adapt some of the tools where we, as network engineers, can adjust to the changing application needs. Also, the solution can provide us with multiple support, allowing us to create a network segment. The solution’s technical support could be improved.
Stratos-Margaritis - PeerSpot reviewer
Solutions Architect at Navarino SA
The ease of installation and licensing are also significant advantages
We use the application filtering, content filtering, and intrusion prevention system (IPS) features. These features are crucial for our network security. The ease of installation and licensing are also significant advantages, as it allows us to have one license for all products, which simplifies upgrading and maintenance. Additionally, the ease of deployment is critical for us.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Gajshiled's enterprise cloud and DLP-level features give it an advantage over other products."

"GajShield has improved our mobile device-based connectivity."
"It is an easily scalable solution...The initial setup was very easy."
"GajShield Next Generation Firewall's best feature is the network DLP."

"The solution's outcome is very high, and we often use it in a very high-traffic environment."
"The architecture of the OS in Juniper is very good. It's flexibility, scalability, and the technicality is also good."
"The integration and configuration with AWS was excellent."
"We like the solution’s protocol and its dashboard system."
"It's much faster to deploy a power source. If you need to deploy a firewall in the cloud of software, it's much easier and much faster than deploying the office firewall in a rush."
"The initial setup was very straightforward; there was no problem and the initial deployment took about one hour."
"Easy to maintain. Easy to use. Easy to set up. It is easy for me to go in and update settings, make changes, or add/remove rules or security."
"Juniper vSRX is very scalable and easy to use."

Cons

"GajShield Next Generation Firewall could improve the flow of the settings. If somebody's using a Cisco firewall or any other brand and they want to use GajShield Next Generation Firewall the platform's UI is a bit different. If it was more similar to the others it would be better."
"Gajshield can improve SD-WAN compatibility at an enterprise cloud level."
"We raised a support ticket, and the project didn't get a proper response. There was a skill issue in TAC support."
"The UI for the administration of the firewall needs a lot of work."
"The firewall configuration and administration screens could use some improvement."
"Sometimes, we have to use SD-WAN support for the solution, which can be improved by adapting some features that will help our approach to network services."
"GajShield Next Generation Firewall would be improved with the addition of a load-balancing feature."
"We face issues with some configuration parts that we don't understand in the solution, and sometimes we face issues with the VPN connection."
"The solution can be improved by allowing automatic updates for the OS devices."
"We have some weird errors and some weird behavior on the solution occasionally. The device gets buggy without anyone touching it. It would work and then suddenly stop. Sometimes you need to just move the cards out and restart it again, and it will work. The solution itself, the hardware and the software, there must be some bugs that need to be dealt with."
"They could provide support for cloud deployments."
"The GUI is really bad."
"Processing is too slow between Juniper and Cisco."
"Some people complain that the solution tends to have a steep learning curve."
"VPN access is an area that needs improvement."
