Great security, pretty stable, and has potential to scale
Pros and Cons
  • "The security aspect of the solution, particularly the malware behind it, is excellent. That's something that really helped us out. It's not just a simple proxy that just blocks the insights of potential threats that come on behind it. They do malware detection and that helps us a lot."
  • "The solution could be stronger on the integration side and offer more cloud applications like G Suite or Oracle."

What is most valuable?

The security aspect of the solution, particularly the malware behind it, is excellent. That's something that really helped us out. It's not just a simple proxy that just blocks the insights of potential threats that come on behind it. They do malware detection and that helps us a lot.

Overall the solution is quite good. It's similar to Microsoft where it had a base and just added more platforms.

What needs improvement?

The solution could be stronger on the integration side and offer more cloud applications like G Suite or Oracle.

For how long have I used the solution?

We started using the solution three to five months ago.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Stability-wise, I can't say that we have had any problems at all with the solution. It's decent. It's not exceptional, however.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

We find the solution to be quite scalable. If an organization needs to scale up they can do so with iBoss. It should be a problem at all.

We have about 20 to 30 people on the solution, so it's not a huge amount. They are all mainly end-users.

How are customer service and support?

Technical support has been very good to us. We've found them to be responsive and knowledgable. Their work is good and we've been satisfied with their level of service so far.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We didn't previously use a different solution before we took on iBoss a few months ago. 

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup is quite straightforward. It didn't give us too many issues.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The pricing of the solution is okay. It's less expensive than, say, Check Point.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

I've heard that Check Point is also very good, although it's a more expensive option.

What other advice do I have?

We're a partner with iBoss. We resell the product to our clients if the solution makes sense for them and covers their requirements.

We're using the latest version of the solution.

I would recommend the solution. You don't necessarily have to do a POC first. However, I would recommend it. For us, it was easier to have it integrated into our outreach environment. For clients moving towards the cloud for the first time, especially on Microsoft platforms, its something that really should be seriously considered before actually just jumping in on a new solution.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten. If we wanted to, we could go with a more costly setup.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
