"The simplicity of the SDP platform is a standout feature; instead of navigating through intricate details, users can seamlessly connect to the company's network or switch to the internet with minimal effort."
"It is pretty stable."
"The flexibility of the tool is valuable. It is very robust. It has a very robust configuration capability."

"The most valuable feature of Aruba ClearPass is the ease of deployment and integration with other equipment in the network."
"The most valuable features of Aruba ClearPass are its ease of use and the general network access controls."
"It eliminated the management of 10 different individual discrete RADIUS servers."
"The support is top notch, expert, and very friendly. "
"The most valuable feature of Aruba ClearPass is its ease of use and the GUI is user-friendly."
"What I like best about Aruba ClearPass is its 802.1X certificate-based authentication feature."
"One thing that kind of sticks out to me is the ability to do a proper non-split tunnel. VPN tunnel-wise, it is not really a true unsplit tunnel, but I think that's just because of the way it's designed. A split VPN basically allows your system to talk to other systems without being forced down the tunnel. A VPN running in a non-split tunnel mode forces all the traffic down the tunnel to wherever you're VPNing to. It forces the traffic down so that the traffic is subject to the firewall and rules that you have in your corporate environment and such. It helps to prevent remote malicious folks that may be talking directly to that box from piggybacking into the corporate environment through it. They do it partially, but it would be nice to see more of an enterprise-level solution there."
"They could provide a single-box solution to manage tools for 4000 users. Additionally, they could add extra features to enhance remote micro connection."
"On the cloud, when you make some changes, it may be difficult."
"One limitation is that it's harder to provide access to multiple applications in the company with Appgate, but that's probably because of poor management."
"It would be better to connect to an application portal from any device. Documentation and support could be better."
"The user interface should be improved as it is not very easy to work with the updates."
"One area for improvement would be the possibility of using social media providers for user authentication."
"I would like to see is “AAS”. Not only Aruba APs with central, but NAC/ClearPass, AirWave, and everything licensed as a Service. This way, like AWS, they can spin up what they need when they need it and vice versa."
"Aruba ClearPass could improve the user interface, it is a bit chunky."
"The GUI of Aruba ClearPass could improve, it is not user-friendly."
"After HP, their support is the worst."
"Aruba needs to improve and the processes must be clear."
"The platform's API integration could be better. Additionally, its pricing could be affordable."
"I remember our technical team stating that the installation front of the solution was a bit difficult when compared to other solutions."
