Cisco Secure Client (including AnyConnect) Reviews

We primarily use the solution for remote access to the on-premise server. If we are off-site, we are still able to connect when we need to.

The initial setup is pretty straightforward and not overly complex.

The solution is quite stable.

So far, the scalability has been good.

The solution is very secure in general. 

We were going to use the Cisco AnyConnect with hardware tokens. However, right now, it's very complicated in terms of delivering the hardware token to the customer. That's why we are looking for a software token right now. I'm not sure how it's going to work. It's under review right now.

We've been using the solution for about two or three years at this point.

The solution is very stable and reliable. I haven't experienced any bugs or glitches. It does not crash or freeze. The performance is quite good.

So far, the scalability has been good. We have not faced any issues. If a company needs to expand, it should be able to. 

Currently, we have 50 or 60 people using the product.

Tech support has been good overall. I have no complaints about their service. We've been happy with the help they've provided to us. They're great. That said, we've had very few problems with e product in general.

We also have a USB token for the hardware.

By the time I joined the company, they were already using this product. I can't speak to what they used before.

It's my understanding that the initial setup was pretty straightforward. It wasn't overly difficult. 

I'm just one of the users. I can't speak to the price as I was not part of the decision-making process and I don't directly deal with licensing or payments.

However, it's my understanding that the licensing is quite expensive. 

We use the solution ourselves and are end-users. However, we also resell the product to our clients.

We upgraded a few months ago. It's my understanding that we are on the latest version of the product.

I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten. For the most part, we've been very happy with the solution and its capabilities. 

We use the Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client as a VPN to connect to our VMs.

The most valuable feature of Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client is the one-click VPN connection. Additionally, the performance is good.

Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client could improve by adding faster connectivity.

I have been using the Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client for approximately two years.

I have not used another similar solution previously.

It's a tight solution. It's easy to use and secure.

The solution scales well.

The installation process is not difficult. 

In general, it's always a good idea to improve scalability and stability. For the most part, we are satisfied.

I've used the solution since about the start of Covid-19. We've used it for around two years at this point. 

The solution is stable and secure. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable and the performance is good. It's also very secure. 

The scalability is good. If a company needs to expand it, it can do so.

We have about 1,600 users at this time.

At this point, I'm not sure if we have plans to increase usage.

We have a lot of documentation available to us. In that sense, troubleshooting is easy.

We are also using Fortinet VPN.

We have found the initial setup to be very simple and straightforward. It's not overly difficult or complex to implement. 

The deployment only takes about ten minutes. 

We have a security team of five technical operators that can help deploy, maintain, and monitor everything. 

We are able to implement the solution via official documentation. 

I'm not sure which version of the solution we are using at this point. 

I would recommend this solution to other organizations.

I'd rate it, in general, at a nine out of ten.

We use AnyConnect to connect to our machines and networks remotely when we are not in the office. I can access files and other services that are available only on our company network.

The most valuable features are that it is really secure and very easy to use.

Sometimes when you are on the VPN, it can be a little bit slow. This may not be a Cisco issue, per se.

We have been using Cisco AnyConnect for six months.

Stability-wise, it seems to be pretty good. We have people working from home and we really haven't had any issues.

We have between 2,000 and 3,000 people who are using AnyConnect.

I have not been in touch with Cisco's technical support team.

We were using Pulse up until about six months ago when we switched to Cisco. We had used it for quite a while.

The initial setup is very straightforward. The only challenge is setting it up when you're already remote, which can be difficult. If you are in the office and on the network then the setup is really fairly simple.

Our IT department has set it up so that it's pushed out and automatically installed in our machines.

This is absolutely a product that I can recommend. For me, it is straightforward to establish my VPN connection and then do my work.

I would rate this solution a ten out of ten.

Our primary use case for this solution is connections. We use it to connect internally. 

We have been using this solution for four years.

The solution is very stable.

The solution is scalable and secure. We have over 10,000 users utilizing this solution in our organization. 

We do not have experience with customer service and support.

The initial setup is straightforward.

We implemented in-house.

The solution is priced reasonably.

I rate the solution an eight out of ten. The solution is very good and easy to configure, but the price could be reduced.

We mainly use this solution for training and meetings.

The most valuable feature is AnyConnect's reliability.

In the next release, Cisco should add a chat feature.

I've been using this solution for fifteen to sixteen years.

AnyConnect is more stable than any other VPN connection, in my experience.

AnyConnect is scalable.

Cisco's technical support is pretty good.

Positive

I would rate AnyConnect as eight out of ten.

We use AnyConnect for remote work and we are customers of Cisco. 

The solution is easy to deploy and has good NAC integration.

The GUI really needs to be upgraded. If you want to use the solution, you have to be comfortable with the CLI. In addition, we have quite a lot of bug issues that need to be resolved. 

We've been using this product for over two years. 

AnyConnect is a stable solution. 

The solution scales well. 

Cisco technical support is good, they are responsive and act quickly to resolve any issues. 

The initial setup was straightforward. Anyone working from home uses this solution and we have around 1,000 users. 

I rate this solution seven out of 10. 

We mainly use AnyConnect to link up various internal resources we use in the company like CRM software and email.

Advanced malware protection helps us to prevent any virus from contaminating computers. We also have DLP for prevention. And AnyConnect has a feature that lets us do some sandboxing to evaluate files that arrive from the outside. So before opening them, we can check them with the sandbox.

I think, in general, most of the applications are slow, but this is everyday stuff. I think this is more related to the link speed — the links, the lossage, etc. 

I've been using AnyConnect at this company for four years.

I have been connected with the solution for six to eight hours straight with no problem.

Cisco has a massive portfolio of solutions, and they work together. So as for AnyConnect, I think it does what it's supposed to do, and it can integrate with other solutions. The more application security applications you add to your platform, the more secure it will be. So yes, AnyConnect is scalable. It's robust, and it can grow.

I've never had to call Cisco support about an issue with AnyConnect.

I am not the IT person who installed AnyConnect initially. From my end, I just input the username and the password. That's it. 

I rate AnyConnect nine out of 10. I wouldn't say that it's perfect because I'm not trying to gush too much about the product, but I think it accomplishes its goal. However, there is always space for improvement, so that's what I give it a nine. I'm not sure what it would take to get it to 10, but I recommend it for security. AnyConnect provides a secure connection to your corporate resources. It's secure and simple to deploy. I think it's a very simple product. It does not need too many features because it can initiate the VPN, scan the system, enable ROM security, etc.
