Overall Satisfaction with FireMon
We have customers that have this product and we help them with the installation. For one of them we have a managed service, and it means we manage the tool with tasks like doing firmware upgrades, adding/deleting devices and helping them with reports and other configurations. It is also used for training the customer’s users to and understand the reports and other features FireMon Security Manager has.
- Custom compliance assessments. Even [though] FireMon Security Manager has a complete suite of compliance assessments, it's a strength that we are able to build custom compliance assessments to review the status of the network based on our internal policies.
- Rule Search. Is an awesome tool because we can verify before creating a new firewall policy in the network if there is any other policy that is already created that fulfills the request. It lets you keep your firewalls clean.
- Building the maps is still a complex task to complete. It requires a lot of time to do it and it's not too intuitive.
- It's positive, because assessing a firewall before having the tool was a manual task that took a lot of time and effort. Now it's fast and accurate.
