"The search tool needs improvement. It's very difficult to search for policies right now."
"GajShield Next Generation Firewall would be improved with the addition of a load-balancing feature."

"The blocking needs to be improved."
"The product is at its end-of-life. There is nothing to improve as it will be discontinued."
