Overall Satisfaction with Cisco ASA
We use Cisco ASA for our remote phone VPN users. It’s being used primarily by our attorneys that sometimes work at home. It allows our users to have a home office and work with our clients and have them accessible for conferences and gives our users flexibility to conduct business outside the office.
- Allows remote phones to VPN and connect to the phone system
- It’s secure and allows TLS 1.2 encryption
- It’s more reliable to use a physical phone than soft clients e.g. Jabber
- Since we use it for VPN phones the devices need to be configured internally before we deploy them in the field. I have to be able to update the VPN profiles remotely.
- We use ASA for VPN phones and it allows our attorneys the flexibility to work with our clients.
- The VPN phones give attorneys additional ways for clients to communicate with us [thus] increasing their billable hours.
I've used older Cisco PIX and we have a third party that uses Palo Alto firewalls that is more suited for our enterprise but the ASA works seamlessly with our communication manager server.
