Secure Cloud Enablement
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Cisco SASE from other similar products?
Cisco Umbrella provides secure internet access. Its DNS security can filter websites, limit cloud apps, and block threats. It works everywhere. Umbrella's cloud-delivered model ensures consistent policy enforcement anywhere users go. The management console lets you customize acceptable web categories and monitor internet activity. You also get security intelligence from Cisco Talos.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
When I tell customers how to use Cisco Umbrella, I show them how it can make their internet security the same everywhere. Umbrella doesn't require on-premises hardware. It simply routes devices' DNS requests through its cloud.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Umbrella relies on the internet, so if links go down, it won't work. The policy engine can't adapt to changing user and app behaviors over time.
Pros
- Helps Innovate
- Continually Improving Product
- Reliable
- Performance Enhancing
