Illumio can be improved if we have more interactive sessions with the tech team. The support of Illumio can be better since it's a new tool, and people can explore it more. There could also be more examples of how the automations can be done using Illumio.

There should be an option to upgrade from the console to the latest version instead of performing manual upgrades. This would be more helpful to streamline processes.

The log collection part needs improvement, and the tool should offer more details about the logs. We need more details on areas where there is an error or a traffic blockage. I would like the tool to offer a more detailed view.

Some of the features that can be improved is offer additional guidance on creating an effective and risk-free tagging policy would be highly beneficial.

Every month, we're getting new features. It's always improving. I don't see a place where it is weak or lacking in development. 

The customer service is lagging a bit. It could be better. 

We'd like labeling to be better. For example, if someone, by mistake, if he edits that labeling part, it should give you a warning pop-up to the effect of "Are sure to edit this enforced application?" so that person immediately will know that this is the enforced application and he should not touch that application labeling.

I need some further comparisons to point out the weaknesses. That's why I'm looking for comparisons with other products.

The solution is very basic and doesn't do anything other than the orchestration of layer four endpoint firewall rules.

Illumio Adaptive Security Platform could improve by supporting more operating systems. For example, Cisco and Apache appliances.

The interaction we've had with the support team hasn't been ideal. Technical support should be improved.

The solution needs to better integrate before we are able to deploy. It would be helpful if we could deploy the solution even if there are difficulties with integrations or other conflicts.

The product’s agents don't work very well in OT environments. It could include environments with manufacturing sensors or other devices where installing the agent may not be possible. We don't have the same visibility and flexibility that we have on our computer or server.

No. The product has great future-proof vision. The additional features are being added throughout the period to cater different scenarios.
