Overall Satisfaction with FireMon
FireMon is a global tool that has been purchased to get a centralized view of our firewalls. This enables us to review our security posture and implement a compliance strategy with our customers.
- Customization of reporting is a nice feature. This is not available with other similar tools in the industry.
- Traffic Flow Analysis is widely used for looking at overly permissive rules.
- The dashboards are simple and enable us to do a presentation for non-technical audiences.
- The integration of firewalls is quite easy.
- Support is fast to respond and generally knowledgeable.
- The main area where FireMon will need improvement is a true knowledge base for customers and users. There is a lack of documentation and known facts. This means that as a user, the need for opening tickets for simple tasks is sometimes frustrating.
- The product enables us to review the change management process with our vendors and enables us to track any changes in the firewalls that would have not been authorized.
