Cons
"The Linux compatibility of this solution could be improved.""There is room for improvements when it comes to the licensing.""The solution lacks self-service on password reset. It also needs to improve its scalability.""I expect usability features to become more refined over time. I'm interested to see how it evolves and continues to improve.""When there are issues I would like remediation to be in one place.""An improvement would be if there was an another way to manage the logs besides email because it's not so practical.""There is room for improvement with the introduction of AI functionality.""If you buy direct, there is a minimum of 150 licenses that must be procured. The price point and barrier of entry is a little bit higher than it would be if you purchased the solution from an authorized reseller partner, rather than buying it and managing yourself."
