Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE)

We use Cisco Identity Services Engine and our main authentication/authorization software for wireless, VPN and TACACS to our network devices. We leverage Cisco Identity Services Engine with posturing policies with our Cisco Secure Client VPN to ensure access to our network resources is coming from a trusted device. We were also able to build our wireless policies to only allow company owned equipment to access our wireless network and provide an internet only access policy for mobile devices for our employees that had no core network access.
  • Posturing
  • Reporting
  • Strong library of access policy options
  • Always room for improving reporting
  • Dashboard needs a refresher
  • Live log improvements
  • The additional security it has provided over the years is ROI in itself.

Would you buy Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) again?

Yes

Cisco Identity Services Engine is well suited for VPN access policies and posturing. Very easy to implement and provides those extra checks and layers of security from devices trying to access your network. The Guest Access Portal needs revision it's clunky at times and only creates more work on the back end for support teams to setup access if needed.
