I think it's a good product for companies that has a lot of branches, not for small companies. I would say medium to large companies that need to have a good visibility. What do they have in the network and somehow interconnected with the security department that will also review the logs from ISE and make conclusions about what do they have in the network.

The product is mature. The product support well all 3 main OS (Windows, Linux, MacOS). Cisco Support is great Cisco backends are powerfull appliance Cisco secure profile are a great feature and because they are controlled centraly, there is less way to bypass the VPN. Cisco SEcure connect is really easy-to-use for non computer expert.

It’s easy to use, but there could be more options available to you. There is a control pad which allows you to do all the capabilities without the requirement of having a laptop plugged in. This is very handy and very user friendly whilst also giving me control of the meeting.

Firewall from the cloud simplifies the management and operation of the overall solution, I have no resource problems and can scale well. I can fall back on cloud redundancy and the systems are accessible at all times.
