Strong visibility and control over firewall policy management
What do you like best about the product?
Users frequently appreciate that it doesn’t just list rules—it analyzes them for over-permissioning, unused rules, and potential attack paths. That “risk scoring + context” is often cited as more useful than basic audit tools.
What do you dislike about the product?
Steep learning curve / complexity
A common complaint is that the platform can feel complex to fully master, especially for new users or teams without prior policy management tooling experience. Advanced features (like optimization, reporting, or workflow tuning) often require significant product knowledge.
Some users also note that while the UI is usable, deeper functionality isn’t always intuitive and takes time to configure properly.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
“We have too many firewall rules and no one fully understands them”
Over time, rules accumulate across firewalls, cloud security groups, and vendors. This leads to:
Duplicate or conflicting rules
Orphaned/unused access
Overly permissive “temporary” rules that never get removed

Makes Managing Multiple Firewall Devices Easy
What do you like best about the product?
It helps me manage multiple types of firewall devices.
What do you dislike about the product?
One of the biggest challenges I’ve had with Policy Manager is how complex it can be to visualize and manage large rule sets. The platform would also benefit from stronger automation and more AI-driven capabilities to cut down on manual work. Integration with external systems, along with more flexible reporting options, are additional areas where improvements would make a noticeable difference and significantly enhance operational efficiency.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Policy Manager helps us tackle the complexity of managing large-scale, multi-vendor firewall policies by giving us centralized visibility and deeper analysis. It flags risky, redundant, and unused rules, which helps us reduce our attack surface and keep the policy base clean and well maintained. It also streamlines compliance and audit work through automated reporting, and supports better change management with impact analysis before updates are made. Overall, it improves our operational efficiency, lowers risk, and strengthens our security posture.

Real-time visibility and powerful automation to keep everything under control
What do you like best about the product?
What I value most is the real-time visibility and centralized management, because it allows me to have everything under control from a single place. It also highlights the very powerful automation of changes and compliance, which reduces manual work and helps maintain order. Finally, the proactive risk analysis provides peace of mind by anticipating potential problems before they escalate.
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve is quite steep. Additionally, the interface can be overwhelming, especially at first. I have also noticed high resource consumption, which affects the user experience.

1. Incorrect configurations and risky rules.
2. Lack of centralized visibility.
3. Manual change management: slow and error-prone.
4. Audits and compliance that can take weeks.
5. Accumulation of rules over time.
6. Slow response to incidents.
