We performed a comparison between Cisco IOS Security and Commvault Cloud based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Netgate, Fortinet, OPNsense and others in Firewalls."The signature database and zero-day detection are Fortinet FortiGate's most valuable features."
"The most valuable features of Fortinet FortiGate are the different types of profiling. It has been the most effective for me. The WAF and the antivirus profile are the most effective in network protection."
"FortiGate is on the cheaper end, and it offers good value."
"It does a lot for you for intrusion protection and as an antivirus. The threat management bundle is worth the money. You don't need another company to monitor your web traffic for you. You can do everything yourself on the firewall. You restrict your own black list for people on the firewall. You don't need to pay some other company for another product to do that for you. The firewall can do that for you. So, it's an easy-to-use product for people to be independent. They don't need to rely on other vendors to do what the firewall can do. They can do everything."
"The most valuable features are the possibility of having one fabric for switching on security."
"The solution is stable."
"We can use our devices to check all of the perimeters. It secures email websites."
"The email protection and VPN features are the most valuable."
"It is less expensive than alternative firewalls."
"The VPN connection portal scan works flawlessly, which was a big plus for us."
"Cisco IOS allows us to keep the same security features as our principal offices."
"The solution is stable."
"Cisco IOS Security has many good features, but compared to other solutions, it has a more user-friendly interface with steps to apply and manage rules. Another good part of the solution is that it's more straightforward."
"Technical support for this solution is very good."
"You can scale it when you need to."
"One of the main features is that the hardware is extremely reliable."
"Quick backups and restores of data are the most valuable features. It is important that it is an easy solution to integrate with the SAML authentication of our tenant, so we can have our users log into the systems and do their own restores, if needed."
"Integration with Active Directory and the Azure platform make it a complete solution."
"The product is a reliable solution."
"Technical support is great."
"The most valuable feature is sharing data sets like they're in a private cloud. We call it our "private cloud" because we can share anything that is inside our backup set with our colleagues or with other people, and yet, everything is still in Belgrade, in Serbia. It's not somewhere else on cloud servers. Everything is in our environment."
"The most valuable feature is the deduplication ratio. It saves most of our space and reduces the network traffic."
"It's very user-friendly. It supports a wide range of workloads. It's quite easy to use, it's very powerful and it's scalable."
"The Command Center is provided from the web interface. You can back up the data for everybody, but also you can give everybody the ability to view and restore their data. For example, if a laptop, machine, or environment is owned by X, then X can look in and see the environment and data that he has backed up. He can see everything that he owns and can manage the environment as he wishes. It gives him an excellent view of his environment and infrastructure. Also, if you are a service provider, you can back up data for multiple companies and give everyone an interface for their environment to manage, backup, and restore data. Commvault has done excellent work in this area."
"Fortinet FortiGate could improve by having more storage in the hardware for log data."
"Fortinet doesn't provide multiple virtual firewalls which would facilitate end users and customers."
"The integration with third-party tools may be something that they should work on."
"I think there could be more QoS features"
"Quality control on their firmware versions needs improvement. When they introduce new firmware, there tend to be bugs."
"There are some complex administration tasks in their administration portal. That needs to be improved."
"I need user-behavior analytics, to find threat scenarios from inside the organization, insider attacks. That would be very helpful for us. In addition, I would like next-generation features for small and medium businesses. These businesses require UTM, all in one product. Fortinet must include it."
"WAN load-balancing could be a lot better at detecting when a link is poor or inconsistent, and not just flat out dead."
"The product's technical support services need improvement."
"Cisco IOS Security should improve its functionalities."
"I would like to see much more embedded security that works and that isn't a bolt-on."
"With respect to user-friendliness, it is a command-line interface and those with such experience will get along just fine, whereas others may struggle."
"The solution’s setup process could be better."
"Cisco IOS Security's monitoring is rather rudimentary and could be improved."
"The user interface needs to be improved."
"I would like upgrading iOS to be a bit easier."
"The speed of the Office 365 Backup & Recovery feature is adequate. Microsoft controls the amount of bandwidth that people have when they're using Azure and the O365 environment... If they could work out something with Microsoft to improve the speed, that would help."
"This product is overly complex to operate and run."
"When you deploy Complete Data Protection for past services, it's more complicated because you cannot directly back up from the previous service host. We have to build a proxy server, like a middleware, to directly access the past database server. It's complex and hard for beginners to figure out."
"The HTML interface is a remarkable improvement. However, there are still some features that are not available in that interface that are available in the Java console, but I'm sure that will come with time."
"The price of Commvault HyperScale X could improve."
"They need to improve when it comes to large, video file archiving. They're good, but they have not met my expectations as a customer in this area."
"They can improve the security level for Windows. When mapping to the Windows, Commvault can take full control over data volumes so that the attacker can't delete the volume data, but the Windows admin can access the volumes. It would be great to block access at that level."
"Endpoint backup."
