It's easy to roll out, and their understanding of our business made it seamless
One aspect we value about iboss is its simplicity. Their customer service is brilliant, and they are super responsive and knowledgeable. It's easy to roll out, and their understanding of our business made it seamless. We were impressed by the solution's mental health function, which can detect if someone needs help. It scans what users are browsing and flags warning signs so we can check to see if they are okay. We've had to use it a couple of times. The user interface is highly intuitive. Our IT team picked it up with minimal training. It's arranged so that it's easy to find where things are. Another advantage is the single pane of glass console, which gives you visibility into what's happening. We're not fully there yet because we haven't implemented zero trust, but we're excited about the possibilities from the demos we've seen. We launched a POC of iboss' ChatGPT Risk Protection feature two weeks ago. AI is a great tool, but you need to be careful what you put into it. My biggest fear is employees inputting sensitive corporate information or customer PII data into one of these chatbots. I was impressed by our trial of the feature. It's exactly what we wanted. Now, when a user goes to ChatGPT, there's a banner warning them not to share information, and we can block conversations containing customer data like bank details and email addresses. I don't want to stop people from using it, but we need visibility. We've only tried it on a test group of 15 people. You can configure it to look for specific keywords or integrate it with your DLP policy if you have that configured

Feedback highlights ease of use while needing further development
I work with Palo Alto Panorama, Prisma, Prisma Cloud, Prisma Access, Strata Cloud Manager, and Firewall on-premise including the VM-Series and PA-Series from the Palo Alto catalog. I am in network security with 15 years of experience. I have five years of experience with Palo Alto, 15 years with Check Point, 15 years with Cisco, and five years with Imperva. In the Portuguese market, Firewall has a 17% to 60% market share. Implementation is done in the cloud, in Azure and AWS, and includes firewall appliance for the one and two series. Prisma Access Browser is currently replacing SSL VPN. A partner has one implementation in a major telecom provider in Portugal. A use case is to replace the partner with SSL VPN, a clientless VPN. The overall rating for this solution is 6 out of 10.

Provides comprehensive protection for enterprises
The cons include it not being implemented in the mid-enterprise segment. For these organizations, it is an additional expense. Even companies with multi-tenant, multi-cloud, and multi-geolocation environments are not using this WAF solution because it is an investment. They already have endpoint protection, EDR, firewalls, and authentication. Spending on WAF is an extra investment for them. This is one reason mid-enterprise segments hesitate to adopt it.
