User interface has improved navigation but demands clearer organization for consistent workflows
There is one product for operating system called Google Chrome OS Flex. Google Chrome Enterprise generally updates in the background with a button that appears for relaunching to update. The updates are frequent, occurring every two or three days. While tab history is saved, it can be inconvenient to close and reopen all tabs. When an update occurs, a button appears on Google Chrome Enterprise indicating the need to relaunch. This requires closing all Chrome windows before updating. Google Chrome Enterprise is simple to install. For Google Cloud services, installation is not necessary as services are created directly on the cloud. It is currently running on public cloud. I don't have anything deployed on other clouds, only GCP. I have rated this solution 6 out of 10.

Stable and scalable solution with a great threat isolation engine
Menlo Security RBI is mainly used to do basic cloud migrationary technologies Menlo Security RBI's best feature is its threat isolation engine. Menlo Security RBI could be more cloud-friendly, and its mobility could be improved. In the next release, I'd like Menlo Security RBI to include a…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Google Chrome Enterprise helps to keep IT support and maintenance costs low, especially for smaller teams."
"We use the product to run applications and devices."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"Chrome functions as a comprehensive solution due to its continuous self-evaluation and improvement. The evolution process has been significant, with a notable distance covered from its inception to the present. Notably, features like VPN support have been incorporated over time, enhancing the platform's capabilities. A distinctive feature is that users don't even need to know the Wi-Fi password; upon signing into the machine, internet connectivity is established immediately. Furthermore, the cloud storage system ensures data isn't stored locally, making it seamless for users to switch between machines. In summary, Google Chrome Enterprise is an excellent solution, particularly when there's a shortage of available manpower."
"Google Chrome Enterprise provides ease of management for users and regular updates."
"This solution is user-friendly with security features detecting if there is suspicious activity on the browser. There is a lot of extensions we can use to provide us with good coverage."
"The best aspects of Google Chrome Enterprise are its compatibility with everything, smooth management, and frequent security patching, which I find nice to use."
"Bookmarking is very good because they are synchronized across all devices."
"I can't say that there is one specific feature that is most valuable. It's the overall platform that is well-suited to our needs. It's something that is different from a lot of other products or platforms in the marketplace."
"Menlo Security RBI's best feature is its threat isolation engine."
 

Cons

"When troubleshooting any issues, especially security issues, it is not easy to define the root cause."
"There is a need for improved features to refine search results and narrow them down efficiently."
"Google Chrome Enterprise doesn't use AI in its solution."
"The updates are frequent, occurring every two or three days. While tab history is saved, it can be inconvenient to close and reopen all tabs."
"The solution's interface is an area with certain shortcomings that need improvement."
"In an upcoming release, the enhanced troubleshooting feature needs to improve to be able to identify the issues for the use case and for the user experience."
"The product's stability can be better."
"I wish there was a way that they could update things a little less often if anything. I think a lot of enterprise customers are frustrated... Certain plug-ins like ad blockers will lose some functionality in the next quarter to half a year."
"Menlo Security RBI could be more cloud-friendly, and its mobility could be improved."
"There are several features, such as supporting web technologies, that the company is working on implementing in the platform. There are a lot of backend web technologies in use on various websites, for example, two-way audio/video and WebGL, for which support may not be fully implemented in the product."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"So all I can say is just for us since we just recently re-upped our three-year contract for Google Education Enterprise, whatever the name is for their highest level enterprise...I found the pricing to be pretty reasonable overall."
"Google Chrome Enterprise is a medium-priced solution."
"We are on a monthly subscription for this solution."
"The product price is very good in my opinion."
"Yearly payments are to be made towards the licensing costs of Google Chrome Enterprise. It is not an expensive solution. I rate the solution's pricing model a six out of ten. There is a need to pay an extra cost in addition to the solution's standard licensing fees."
"Pricing varies significantly based on different regions and specific requirements. The cost can differ for the Euro price as opposed to the Asia-specific price. Generally, the standard pricing falls within the range of twenty-five to thirty dollars per license. This payment can be structured on a monthly or yearly basis. Opting for the yearly payment plan often comes with an added discount, either directly from Google or through negotiations with your vendor."
"Menlo Security RBI can be very costly."
