Can perform most of the tasks at affordable rate but lacks faster GUI
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
I like the role-based functions, but the device can now perform most of the tasks. We have open access to CLI. You can access it directly. Many vendors have also opened their CLI to Linux, making troubleshooting easier.
What needs improvement?
The GUI needs to be faster.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Juniper vSRX for five years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Stability depends on the configuration and virtualization.
I rate the solution’s stability a nine out of ten.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
It's scalable. They've improved because previously, you could only handle up to 500 tunnels, but now they can handle up to 2000 concurrently. Around three or four people in my team are using this solution.
I rate the solution’s scalability an eight out of ten.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is very easy. You need the management IP. Then, you can copy and paste. Additionally, in the CLI, you can load the configuration and manage devices, which saves a lot of time.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I rate the product’s pricing a three out of ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
Palo Alto is more better. Juniper has firewall issues. Juniper is cheaper and more reliable than others. Palantir is reliable but it is pricey.
What other advice do I have?
It is easy to integrate the solution with your IT workflow. We have a lot of VM quota. We need to download the configuration.
I recommend opting for a normal firewall if you only need around 50 percent efficiency up to the protocol level. I suggest purchasing a VM rack. You can receive support without complicating things.
Overall, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

Comes with routing features but needs improvement in visibility and availability
What is most valuable?
The tool's most valuable features are routing features and service quality.

The tool's basic license does not cover everything. It needs to improve visibility and availability.

I have been working with the product for two to three years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The tool is very stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Juniper vSRX's scalability is good.

Juniper vSRX is worth its money.

Great quality and performance, but the solution could improve its technical support
What is most valuable?
The product’s quality and performance are better than other vendors.
What needs improvement?
The solution could improve its technical support. It could also improve its performance and ticket handling.
For how long have I used the solution?
I am working on the solution currently for three of my clients.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
Most of the clients might choose Cisco, Palo Alto, and Fortinet over Juniper because of the difference in pricing, quality, performance, ticket handling, and technical support.
What other advice do I have?
The product has a good market in our country. Juniper’s MX1000 and other series have firewall and routing features. However, in other products, the firewall and routing feature is separated. Most Juniper devices combine routing switches and firewalls on a single platform.
Overall, I rate the solution a six or seven out of ten.
Solid network and security features, service needs improvement.
What do you like best about the product?
Overall, I've always found Juniper's products pretty reliable and future-proof, and vSRX was no exception. vSRX was our standard firewall at a previous company, and not only did it perform up to standards, it also had the other advantage of being virtual. We were delighted with the product itself.
What do you dislike about the product?
We found that service was pretty lacking when something inevitably went wrong with one of the devices.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It was the Firewall Software of choice at a previous company I worked for. After much consideration I believe the company went with Juniper's product due to their expertise in the area.
