We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution is straightforward to set up.""It offers straightforward integration.""It has high stability.""It is a good product. It provides network visibility, which is important. Gigamon can bring some optimizations to my network. It is helpful for security inspection, and it makes my firewall work fast because my firewall doesn't have to do the inspection of the SSL connections, for example.""The tool's most valuable feature is the encryption feature. From a security perspective, the solution hasn't significantly strengthened our security posture. However, it has greatly improved performance by streamlining encryption processes and avoiding encryption at multiple layers. This has also simplified troubleshooting, as we can whitelist certain processes.""The most valuable feature is NetFlow.""The most valuable feature for improving network visibility with Gigamon is the packet filtering capability."

Currently, customers have to use separate tools for monitoring, which is inconvenient. If it had its visibility feature, it would make monitoring easier and more complete without needing extra tools.""The security should be improved."
