Nothing is perfect, but so far Umbrella has stood up to all of the major DNS vector threats (e.g., CC) we have encountered from APTs to criminal elements attempting to penetrate our network, whether to steal IP or install malware on our network. In conjunction with our suite of other security products, Umbrella has withstood the test of time. We have had this product on our network for over 3 years now with no complaints.

I found that, at some times of the day when we were configuring the solution, the level of support was harder to contact and the standard of advice was not as valuable as it could be at other times. Generally we had no issues with this, just on a couple of different occasions.

Cisco Umbrella - manageable, easy to use

The initial incident submission is handled by a "bot" which does not always give an appropriate response, which then in turn requires an escalation to a live person which generally can answer the issue or resolve the problem. Response time for the 2nd level escalation takes much longer and can possibly leave your company more vulnerable in the short time window. There are instances were you need a quick response and there is no way to get a quick answer.

This is the only downside to Cisco. While their engineers are knowledgeable and great to work with, their escalation system leaves a lot to be desired, and what's meant to be a simple process gets complicated and tedious.

Just as good as all other Cisco products, though Cisco can not assist much with the other software/products needed to deploy the roaming client agent.

Customer support is really skilled and well trained. For critical issues the process should be managed in a different manner, for example like TAC cases with priority 1.

Cisco Umbrella support is always responsive and provides the complete details we need in times of interruption, feature requests, and even minor inquiries or clarifications. It educates us during the process so we can troubleshoot and support it easier next time. It also follows up on the status of our inquiries and concerns.

Cisco's support for Cisco Umbrella is the same as for any other Cisco's solution--just great. When we had some issues with installation Cisco Support helped us quickly. I would like to have Cisco Support anywhere :)

The documentation was straight forward for setup and integrating with Meraki. There was a issue with the order process, but this was addressed in a timely manner through Cisco sales support.

We had excellent support from the moment when we carried out an exhaustive review of all the products on the market until today already in production and during implementation. We use a mixed services scheme between Cisco professionals and a local partner. In my experience, it is the best option and always leaving the implementation tasks to their own team so as not to lose the know-how.

I have not needed any vendor support for Cisco Umbrella so I can't really comment, but I do see the links to phone support, FAQ, service status, etc. in the bottom left of the screen so it appears to be readily available.

You have a basic and an advanced support. Both offer the best support allowing you to create a case in almost any language and you will have the resolution faster than other vendors. In case they struggle with the solution because of a client’s network issue, they open a conversation with your team to find the way out.

I never faced a significant issue with this tool. It has fit all the purposes we are using it for. I will continue using this solution in the future and recommend it to my partners. I think CISCO is headed in the right direction in these types of products. Thanks, CISCO!

Cisco's commercial side and support were patient and always available. We had a very good experience. They followed the company in the implementation of the Umbrella solutions. The initial evaluation was very clear and the consultants were very skilled technically.

What is Cisco Umbrella?

Cisco Umbrella unifies multiple security services in a single cloud platform to secure access to the internet and control cloud app usage. The Umbrella Secure Internet Gateway (SIG) Essentials package offers a broad set of security functions meant to replace separate firewall, secure web gateway, DNS-layer security, threat intelligence, and cloud access security broker (CASB) solutions. By enabling all of this from a single platform and dashboard, Umbrella is designed to significantly reduce the time, money, and resources previously required for deployment, configuration, and integration tasks. It can be integrated with an SD-WAN implementation to provide a combination of performance, security, and flexibility to delight both end users and a security team.
