My main use cases for Cisco Umbrella are basically endpoint security. We managed to stop some ransomware attacks thanks to Cisco Umbrella.

The Secure Internet Gateway benefits my company because now our whole traffic goes to the Umbrella Cloud and it gets checked there, so nothing malicious is coming into our network. Cisco Umbrella can stop it there super quickly. It's amazing.

My impression of Cisco Umbrella's Secure Internet Gateway is that it's awesome. I understand that my company got a Secure Internet Gateway a couple of months ago. When we first deployed it, we didn't have a Secure Web Gateway, however, it's excellent. Our traffic now goes to the Umbrella Cloud. It's checked there, so it's fantastic.

We are based in Argentina with a data center in Brazil, so the latency is really low, which is fantastic.

Secure Internet Gateway is a super powerful feature. There's definitely something rewarding about using Cisco Umbrella at the end of the day. For example, I saw it stop a ransomware attack right in front of me. I was extremely nervous when I saw the ransomware attack. Cisco protected us.

It's a really powerful solution that's really easy to deploy.

It's somewhat pricey for us, however, it's an awesome solution. If they did lower the price, maybe that could be something for improvements, maybe for the whole Cisco portfolio, thinking of Argentina and those kinds of countries.

I have been using Cisco Umbrella for around a year and a half, approximately.

Regarding the stability and reliability of the platform, it is super stable. I have experienced no problems at all.

I don't know how Cisco Umbrella scales with the growing needs of my company. That's up to our network administrator. Cisco Umbrella hasn't had any problems with scalability.

We never had to contact the TAC for any kind of issues with Cisco Umbrella. We haven't had any issues with Cisco Umbrella yet. When I did need to contact the technical assistance team, they were extremely quick. It's an awesome service. From my experience with the support, I would rate them a nine out of ten.

We did not really consider other solutions before choosing Cisco Umbrella. We are super Cisco-focused in my company. Before Cisco Umbrella, we didn't have anything. We got hit with a ransomware attack and then we deployed Secure Endpoint. We deployed Cisco Umbrella. We deployed Duo, so we are super Cisco-focused.

I would describe the experience deploying Cisco Umbrella overall as super easy. It was awesome. It was lovely to deploy it.

I have seen a return on investment when using Cisco Umbrella. Since we are Cisco distributors, we got it for zero dollars, so we didn't pay anything for it.

Regarding pricing, the setup costs, and the licensing of Cisco Umbrella, it's somewhat pricey for some customers. That said, it's worth the cost. It's a super powerful solution. We come from Argentina, which is a different country than the US, so our lifestyles are different.

We did not really consider other solutions before choosing Cisco Umbrella.

I have not utilized the Experience Insights feature of Cisco Secure Access. I don't really see it on a daily basis. I just configured the solutions now to sell to our customers, so I don't know what could be enhanced. My customers actually only give me good feedback about Cisco Umbrella, which is great.

I would rate Cisco Umbrella a ten out of ten overall.

My main use cases for Cisco Umbrella at this company are DNS security and preventing users from getting to websites that we deem not safe for their consumption and system protection.

The features of Cisco Umbrella benefit my company by allowing us to do protective DNS instead of URL filtering, which lets us avoid having to backhaul traffic and run it through a firewall in a data center. We can send that traffic out through our local WAN sites' egress internet circuit, and let that traffic natively be done in Cisco Umbrella in the cloud versus having that extra backhaul.

I don't know that there's a specific feature of Cisco Umbrella that I prefer most; I appreciate everything about the package. It's a secure source for DNS, and the way it does the proxy is very efficient for segmenting internal DNS results versus external.

I don't have an answer for how Cisco Umbrella can be improved, as it has been some time since I've worked with it. We're just rolling some of this out. We need more time to assess.

Hopefully, it works with the Canvas and starts feeding results into the AI canvas. That would be excellent.

At this current company, I have been using Cisco Umbrella for two months, and before that, I used it for about four years.

Regarding the stability and reliability of the Cisco Umbrella platform, I have experienced no issues; it performs as advertised.

Cisco Umbrella scales effectively with the growing needs of my company; it's excellent, and I have experienced no issues.

I haven't had to make any technical calls regarding customer service or technical support, so we are satisfied.

We are moving away from Palo Alto to Cisco, and we have to do a one-to-one swap first to get new firewalls in before licensing runs out on the old firewalls.

Once that is complete, we will move to our SIG rollout. The main differences between Palo Alto and Cisco Umbrella are that many features Palo offered were always purchased separately, whereas Cisco includes all of those features at less cost compared to purchasing them individually from Palo.

We're currently migrating to Cisco from Palo Alto. Overall, the deployment has been good. It's simple, and there are a lot of white papers out there. There's not a lot of mystery. It just works.

From my point of view, the biggest return on investment when using Cisco Umbrella is that it helps simplify multiple verticals. We don't have a direct impact on DNS, however, it helps simplify the other teams' external DNS resolution, which makes their job easier, so they don't have to seek assistance from me, making my job easier as well.

My experience with pricing, setup costs, and licensing of Cisco Umbrella has been that it's considerably cheaper than Palo. They did an excellent job when they came to the table and were very competitive.

I have not yet utilized the experience insights feature of Cisco Secure Access.

Cisco Talos threat intelligence significantly influences my company's ability to act against emerging threats, giving us the chance to patch our side or take precautions when zero-day vulnerabilities emerge. Talos has been around forever; it's the largest non-governmental source of data on exploits available.

We're not at zero-trust yet. Cisco Secure Access will be playing a big part. Secure Access will play a big part in our identity, and it will tie in with ICE and posturing, feed our firewall information, and integrate with Splunk.

I own Cisco Umbrella's Secure Internet Gateway, however, we have not rolled it out yet. I'm looking forward to Cisco Umbrella working with the Canvas that we just saw at the Keynote this afternoon; if it starts feeding those results into that AI Canvas, that would be fantastic.

I saw the Cisco Insider, however, I am not familiar with what it is.

I'd rate the solution ten out of ten.

My main use cases for Cisco Umbrella are mostly for DNS security, ensuring we have policies in place to block anyone going to bad sites, as well as anything that comes up that we're not always watching to make sure they get blocked.

My favorite feature of Cisco Umbrella is probably just the DNS and the fact that when a security threat happens, all of that gets logged in their Umbrella portal, and it's very easy to find who's been accessing the site and how many people have accessed it, so that we can go to them and make sure they're not compromised.

The features of Cisco Umbrella benefit my company by providing less time to search for things through logs, to look for what we need. It's just one place to go, and we just search for it, and we find it really fast. The fact that there's a virtual database that has all that information is great on our portal.

I think Cisco Umbrella can be improved a lot. We've noticed some issues with the SWG where, when I'm connected, it thinks I'm in Miami, Florida instead of Savannah, Georgia. So when I go to weather.com or something else, it shows up for Miami, which is not where I'm at. That's one thing I think we could find ways to treat that traffic so that the person experiencing it is shown where they really are and not somewhere else.

I've been using Cisco Umbrella for probably seven years now.

The stability and reliability of the Cisco Umbrella platform have been great. I have open cases with support, and they've been very supportive and helpful, allowing us to send information out there and get issues resolved, which is great.

Cisco Umbrella scales really well with the growing needs of my company, bringing the ability to ensure that people are safe and connected. I'm hoping that at some point we could get Cisco Umbrella on people's phones, so when they search on their mobile phones, they're protected. That's probably the only downside—there's not a product out there for mobile devices yet.

Their customer service and technical support have been great. When we open up tickets and get that in place, they are very responsive and come up with solutions that work for us.

We didn't consider other solutions before choosing Cisco Umbrella because it's really the only one that we know works for us. There are other solutions, but as a smaller company, we find Cisco Umbrella tailored towards small businesses, allowing us to get specific features DNS and SWG without having to buy a huge product that we may not use.

I would describe my experience with the deployment of Cisco Umbrella as very straightforward. It's easy to launch; the policies are really easy to set up. You just go to one dashboard, set everything up, and it's done with one click.

The biggest return on investment when using Cisco Umbrella for me is the ease of use of the fact that we've deployed this with our Cisco VPN Secure Client, so every computer has the Umbrella module in it. Each of our devices has that module in it that makes it connect automatically, and we're really happy with how easy it is to deploy and send it out to our firm.

My experience with the pricing, setup costs, and licensing of the Cisco Umbrella solution has been great. We use the Cisco Security EA, so everything's through the Enterprise Agreement, and that's been great to sign up for. We've bundled that with our firewall stuff and our VPN, which brings the price down and adds the ability to grow. As we add more people, it automatically adds the necessary licenses for us, so we don't have to keep coming back and saying we need more.

The features of Cisco Umbrella benefit my company by providing less time to search for things through logs, to look for what we need. It's just one place to go, and we just search for it, and we find it really fast.

My impression of Cisco Umbrella's Secure Internet Gateway is that it's great because we use that a lot in our really small branch offices, which means we don't have to deploy firewalls to those locations. They can connect using SWG to get internet access, but they're also protected without having a physical firewall in each location.

I assess the Cisco Secure Access solution as probably good to integrate, but we haven't really gone that far yet, so I'm hoping at some point we will. I'm hoping that once we get there, it'll be a lot easier to manage.

Cisco Talos threat intelligence influences my company's ability to act against emerging threats by being more of someone else watching it, and we're not having to pay attention to things, allowing us to concentrate on other stuff within the company. We're not having to micromanage our security, Talos takes care of that, and sends out updates to us, which is great.

I think it's just such an easy device to use, making my job easier by allowing me not to worry about threats coming in, and the fact that we can just easily block or accept things.

On a scale of 1-10, I rate Cisco Umbrella a 10.

We use Cisco Umbrella to detect malicious URLs, DNS queries, data exfiltration, and DNS tunneling. It is particularly effective in showing DNS queries and providing visibility for external DNS queries, especially in communications to malicious sites from internal systems.

The DNS data exfiltration and the blocking of DNS tunneling are the most effective features for threat prevention in our company. The DNS layer security provided by Cisco Umbrella is very effective for our security posture, offering us vast improvements in visibility over DNS queries and potential threats.

We need to work on integration as it is very complex. Making it more flexible and easy to deploy, particularly when integrating with other technologies like Active Directory and proxies, would be beneficial.

I have been working with Cisco Umbrella for the last three months.

Cisco Umbrella is stable, and I would rate its stability at nine out of ten.

Cisco Umbrella is scalable for our company. I would rate it nine. We are in the POC stage with twenty users, and once we purchase and deploy it, the number of users may increase.

I am satisfied with Cisco support. I would rate customer support ten out of ten due to the excellent assistance throughout the POC process.

The initial setup was complex, requiring two months for deployment due to the challenging integration process.

Currently, we have not been provided with the financial terms. We are evaluating our internal environment before proceeding with an RFP for a quotation.

The main concern with solutions is financial. Whichever solution gives us a good financial deal, we will consider it. All solutions have similar features yet vary slightly in deployment and workflows.

I recommend using Cisco Umbrella at full capacity with all features. My overall rating for Cisco Umbrella is ten out of ten.
