    George G.

Very promising product and services for easy-to-use Network Security and Firewall as a Service

  • September 08, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
How easy is to configure CATO networks Firewall As A Service and its security features to be applied to the company internet infrastructure. The Management interface design is very understandable and easy to navigate. One more think to like most is the easy way to connect the various branches with each other through the CATO Networks Infrastructure using Centralized VPNs. Last but not least, it supports user-based VPN for remote access to the various company's locations.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to have more options on controlling the Services provided through CATO Networks and also the parameters of the Socket appliance. Moreover, we would like to be able to integrate all the logs from the service to our syslog/SIEM solution but unfortunately there is no integration with syslog to send the logs to. Moreover there should be support for more Operating Systems for the user VPN client functionality and there is no easy way to download the VPN client.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Security as a Service with Cloud-based centralized Firewall / security features that can be applied to multiple locations (branches). Also it resolves with easy way problems with site-to-site VPNs due to the ease of setup of centralized VPN topology. Moreover, the analytics section covers an overview of the security features offered by the service.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You should evaluate the product first in order to see if it really meets your business needs. This may be a very good opportunity for Businesses that need a quick and easy solution for their branches.

Happy with my experience.

What do you like best about the product?
Automatic firewall security updates, no end of life hardware notifications to buy expensive new equipment or I would no longer receive firewall updates. Ease of use, specifically with VPN's to remote sites.
What do you dislike about the product?
Would like to see filtering at the user or individual machine level instead of site level.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The uptime between remote sites has improved greatly. Set up time adding new sites is much faster and very easy. I feel more comfortable with my security level at all of my remote sites, because I would sometimes not pay the expensive annual fee and stop receiving updates to the firewall on my old device. I also have a much better view of what is going on at all of my sites on the dashboard, which has helped more than once finding trouble with my Internet providers.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Seriously consider Cato if you are nearing end of life on you security appliances.

Cost Savings and better security!!

  • September 07, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Cato has the most amazing support team! They are always on top of anything I may need help with. I also love the fact that my network security is now mostly "hands off" from an internal staff perspective.
What do you dislike about the product?
Currently, I have no dislikes related to Cato. If there was anything I could wish for, it'd be the ability to prioritize packets on our network, and I believe that is in development at Cato.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving issues with security across the board. Cato Networks has saved us a ton of money on MPLS circuits. We are now connected thru Cato, so we are able to have far less expensive Internet Pipes in all of our multiple offices. Cato has helped us reduce the security overhead, including costs of equipment and cost of staff time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I highly recommend this product! It's been a great service and helped us reduce overhead costs.

Review by Yassine (FD)

  • September 07, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We're using Cato for our Headquarter, AWS and 1 IPSEC tunnel and what we like the most is the simplicity of connecting different sites and VPN users. We don't have to worry about the encryption, security or configurations. It's almost plug and play.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't know if there is any dislikes in our company. One of the things that we value the most is the speed of solving problems. I know the company is just starting with this concept and thats probably the reason why Cato is still improving their service
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're about to solve a common problem; expanding our company. This would mean that we have to configure network and security in the other building. Testing and reconfiguring. With Cato is very easy to expand your network and have the same security and access.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Easy to use, install, configure. No worries about security, configuration, testing and other things.
