There wasn't really anything that we would change about it.

Très bon produit !

  • March 01, 2024
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
- l'applicance est très fiable : jamais eu un seul bug (sauf quand je me trompe de paramétrage)
- facilité de mise en place
- peut-être mise à jour facilement
- support client réactif
What do you dislike about the product?
Difficulté à jour l'OS à jour en dessous en revanche :
j'ai dû plusieurs fois restaurer la VM à cause de bugs, et du coup j'ai préféré remettre une appliance de zéro
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Permettre à mes clients de se connecter de façon sécurisée à leur postes de travail

Je dirais que comme évolution, il faudrait une solution pour pouvoir limiter les accès client à certaines IP... mais c'est peut-être là une limite structurelle au VPN ?!
