My company uses Cisco Secure Firewall for quite a few years. It is a great product as it keeps our systems secure and our data safe.
We use it as a firewall to secure our data and use it for our VPN connectivity and i find it very easy to use and implement in our system.

Stay secure - go with Cisco!
Cisco firewall is being used as an edge security device in our branch and datacenter locations. Security related policies such as access control or traffic inspection using IPS are currently applied to filter traffic based on the security best practices protecting internal hosts and publicly available services from outside world.
- Traffic inspection
- Remote access
- Access Control
- Management of firewalls via Firepower Management Center should be improved. Devices work well but management platform should be improved further in a manner of simplification, more user friendliness and overall stability.

Cisco Secure Firewall viewed by an reseller
I am a reseller and Consultant for Security products. It really depends on the customers use case and what business we are consultinig. Mostly we try to increase the security in an company. The top use cases are Network segmentation, Firewall refreshes, Zero Trust concepts.
The scope varies also depending on the size of the company. That could mean from one firewall to 100+ firewalls if it"s an international company
