default password - read the directions
Folks the inquiries about the default password... Sigh- read the directions. https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/security/asa/asa99/asav/quick-start/asav-quick/asav-aws.html
Here is how to make it work... BEFORE you launch the AMI you must click advanced details and ADD a zero day configuration via text entry. Once you do connect via SSH and the username is admin. That said I was a victim too on the first try.
Convenient and simple easy to be used
What do you like best?
Firstly, I would like to pinpoint maybe how it's a user friendly software to the tenured agent and new agents in the company
What do you dislike?
Some times it disconnects without any prompt and without any password save since our password is saved from a link we need to open links before accessing the cisco servers.
Maybe it will help us further if they have other ways to log in if the password is not remembered

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ticketing inquiries of customers about their purchases items and accounts etc.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I will suggest this to my fellow friends if the system will be able to coupe up with the derivatives of one agent to another and hoping it will have more function in the future rather than having just a simple connection from one server to another
Also, I would like to add that if they have any notification the system can't connect using our internet or via their server since it didn't have like that in the system

Sometimes it glitches and does not work and puts an error with our internet connection.

It definitely helps us with our country or internet protocol locked tools using with our job.
Told it's free for 5 days
Yet I was charged $45 and no way to get refund. I contacted AWS and they said to contact Cisco. It states clearly no Cisco subscription charges, but yet.. still charged for cisco and the cost of the instance.
Easy and fast deployable virtual firewall

I like the easy and fast deployment of the Cisco ASAv
What do you dislike?
Sometimes there are some unexpected issues which were solved by a reload.

I realized some lab scenarios and was able to re-produce some issues related to wrong configurations in customer setups.
Easy to use and deploy
What do you like best?
Easy to deploy and manage. Being virtual has it’s benefits and if you’re not doing much throughout, it’s the way to go.
What do you dislike?
The ASDM interface still runs on Java which is clunky at best. Would be nice to have an HTML5 interface or you can just manage it via SSH.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Less hardware allows for more space in the data center.
