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.

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.
