There should be some way to be able to say that we want to restore it, but we want to restore it to the version from yesterday. It should support versioning. I would also like to see real-time scanning for advanced threat protection, more straightforward billing, and quicker turnaround on the tech support."
"The product's dashboard is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The version we are currently using is not the latest and greatest but it has buggy behavior in some browsers."
