We utilize different LAN, bandwidth transferring, bandwidth balancing, and mappings. We use it as a centralized solution, and use the same product at all our locations."
"It is very easy to deploy. The GUI interface is really good, and the security features are also very good. It is also stable and scalable, and their support is also good."
"Overall, it's nice and very user friendly. That's what makes it so successful. They give you complicated features but with a very simple user interface, and that's been a big success for them."
"The most valuable features are the main steering and the firewall. The security features and SD-WAN features are also quite good."
"The product has a dynamic VPN feature for SD-WAN."
"Versa is a good centralized solution, where you're setting up your infrastructure in a data center type thing."
"There are great security and ops features without the need for having a different box for security."
"The division of Control Plane and Data Plane is most valuable. It can be deployed anywhere, and you can control it and configure it from anywhere. This is one of the good features of this solution."

"The most valuable feature is the ability to create, develop, and deploy servers in minutes to hours, rather than days."
"The initial setup is easy and takes between one and five days."
"The microsegmentation is great, and the security team thinks it is great."
"The most valuable features are stability and low cost."
"VMware NSX's overlay network is its most valuable feature, as it aligns with any network philosophy and allows for efficient addressing mechanisms. Additionally, the ability to extend the on-premise network into the provider space is beneficial. There are many features provided."
"I have found VMware NSX to be easy to use."
"It is easy to implement it."
"The most valuable features are the micro-segmentation and integrated security options."
"The support needs to be improved."
"With the pandemic and changing work models, it would be ideal if the product more accessibility options or more diversity within the solution itself."
"The interface could be simpler."
"SASE is the next big thing that is coming up, and it needs to be developed in Versa. This is the only thing that needs to be adapted very quickly by Versa. With the pandemic going on, I would like to see more features for working from home. They have launched Versa Secure Access (VSA), but it is currently immature. They need to tighten it up for work from home and SD-WAN concept."
"The UTM features can be improved. It should offer better functionality."
"Certainly, there are areas that require enhancement, and the current focus is on improvements. Presently, I believe that the emphasis should be on enhancing user interface (UI) features, particularly over end devices. The issue arises when attempting to log in to Versa from other devices, as the UI is not device-specific. Consequently, guiding someone to log in to Versa antivirus becomes challenging. Despite the absence of issues on the website, the lack of a login scope impedes graphical representation of user data or databases. Since work databases support only a limited range of features, I recommend augmenting features for end devices to address these limitations."
"The web interface can be improved."
"Another thing that should be improved in Versa are their firewall features."

"The solution is quite complex. You need to keep your thinking cap on and know what you are doing: Go to the training and listen to the solution architects when they come in because they have a lot of knowledge."
"The setup is complex and should be made easier."
"Their licensing model should make it easier to purchase licenses."
"I would like them to make integration with other vendors easier."
"The feature it can improve is essentially application-based load balancing with intelligent load distribution for applications that require redundancy and high availability."
"There is room for improvement in VMware NSX's workload management, particularly in the orchestration layer and in managing workloads across multiple clouds."
"I want to see the solution expand to more than just the network, for example, perhaps it could provide some VLAN technologies."
"Quite a complex solution."
