We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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.""It has high stability.""It offers straightforward integration.""The most valuable feature is NetFlow.""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 solution is straightforward to set up.""The most valuable feature for improving network visibility with Gigamon is the packet filtering capability."

Cons
"The graphical user interface could be improved.""Its filtering feature needs improvement.""The security should be improved.""In terms of improvement, while the initial setup is not overly complicated, we did encounter a few issues.""It only inspects a specific kind of traffic. There should be different kinds of use cases.""The Gigamon Deep Observability Pipeline should have a feature showing the traffic flow within its platform. 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.""They should increase the solution's cluster capacity."

"The way the filtering goes, if you filter on your view, there is no indication that you have made a selection.""Make sure you check your backups on a regular basis. Backups do get missed with this tool, for whatever reason.""I would like to see the pieces that they have put in the web only to be put into the thick client sitting on the desktop client."
