Cons
Cisco
  • For teams which are growing, it is very costly to purchase the capabilities that protects the business and even identifying the right subscription like advance threat protection.
  • The one who does not have any advance or high level Cisco Secure Connect experience, for them it is hard to use the Cisco Secure Connect UI. So, you should make the UI quite extra user friendly.
  • Finding the root cause is very tricky for large datasets.
  • Third party integrations are also not that easy with Cisco.
