Juniper vSRX Reviews

We use the solution for the VPN provider.

I like the role-based functions, but the device can now perform most of the tasks. We have open access to CLI. You can access it directly. Many vendors have also opened their CLI to Linux, making troubleshooting easier.

The GUI needs to be faster.

I have been using Juniper vSRX for five years.

Stability depends on the configuration and virtualization.

I rate the solution’s stability a nine out of ten.

It's scalable. They've improved because previously, you could only handle up to 500 tunnels, but now they can handle up to 2000 concurrently. Around three or four people in my team are using this solution.

I rate the solution’s scalability an eight out of ten.

The initial setup is very easy. You need the management IP. Then, you can copy and paste. Additionally, in the CLI, you can load the configuration and manage devices, which saves a lot of time.

I rate the product’s pricing a three out of ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive.

Palo Alto is more better. Juniper has firewall issues. Juniper is cheaper and more reliable than others. Palantir is reliable but it is pricey.

It is easy to integrate the solution with your IT workflow. We have a lot of VM quota. We need to download the configuration. 

I recommend opting for a normal firewall if you only need around 50 percent efficiency up to the protocol level. I suggest purchasing a VM rack. You can receive support without complicating things.

Overall, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

We did a project for the government. We deployed the Juniper Firewall on their premises. The solution is used for the security purpose of client infrastructure security. There are three types of zones: zone-to-zone-based policy, IPS intrusion, and other policies implemented there.

The graphical unit is slow. Also, Juniper vendor shipping of UPM devices, support, Bandwidth shift, and other activities are very complex.

I have been using Juniper vSRX for six months.

Compared to the Palo Alto firewall and Fortinet firewall, Juniper has low stability. After deploying, I didn't face any challenges.

The solution is scalable. There's one client requirement to make an external firewall. There is no HA. We are focusing more on the user. We are working with Fortinet, Juniper, and Cisco teams to provide our clients with the best solutions. If the client is interested in Juniper, we implement that.

The initial setup is straightforward. For deployment, we are using some networking devices for the routing. I deployed it in the firewall inline mode and created some zones for security purposes.

People in Bangladesh, including the government and small businesses, have pricing issues.

Many customers are using Juniper routers and switches, which has prompted another team to work with Office 365. I am only working on the Juniper firewall part. The technical side is almost the same, and the function is similar with respect to other competitors. Juniper deployment is not very complex, but Cisco deployment is very complex.

I recommend having a price and other comparison with Palo Alto and others.

Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

The software is good. It's similar to when we used LAN and Cisco routers and firewalls in the past. We were able to scale. Juniper is better than Cisco for management.

It is pretty complex to manage and could be easier.

We have been using this solution for about nine years, and it is deployed on-premises. We are using version SRX 500.

The hardware is stable and more stable than Sophos.

It is a scalable solution. We have about 500 users using this solution in our company.

It is easy to install.

I rate this solution a seven out of ten, and I would recommend it to other people.

The tool's most valuable features are routing features and service quality. 

The tool's basic license does not cover everything. It needs to improve visibility and availability. 

I have been working with the product for two to three years. 

The tool is very stable. 

Juniper vSRX's scalability is good. 

We chose Juniper vSRX for its price. 

I rate the tool's deployment a four out of ten. You need one month to complete the deployment for 50 sites. 

Juniper vSRX is worth its money. 

I rate the tool's pricing a five out of ten. 

We evaluated Cisco before choosing Juniper vSRX. 

I rate the product a seven out of ten. 

We are a solution provider and the vSRX is something that we have included in one of the solutions that we sell to our customers for cyber security protection. Our initial deployment was on-premises at one of our customer's sites.

We were so happy with vSRX that we expanded its usage. We design and prepare solutions for ships, and we have included the vSRX as part of our cyber security solution for them. It is still an on-premises deployment, although the premises is a vessel.

This product is primarily used for its UTM functionality. We collect all of the logs that the UTM produces onboard each ship and bring them onshore. At that point, we reevaluate them. We give full accessibility to the customers, allowing them to see what the UTM is doing on their ships.

This product has improved the way our organization functions because prior to implementing it, vessels did not have this technology. There was nothing equal to it.

The most valuable features are application filtering, content filtering, the intrusion prevention system (IPS), and definitely the application firewall.

We use the SSL inspection capability, which we really like a lot.

The reporting can be improved.

I have been working with Juniper vSRX for three years.

Stability-wise, it is very good. This product is very stable and it's proven to be a very good tool for us. It is used extensively because it is part of the ship's main operations. All of the data that goes in or out of the vessel is inspected by it.

This is quite a scalable product. It is easier to scale than the SRX because it's virtual. It's easier to assign more resources than it is to add more hardware.

We have installed this solution on approximately 450 ships with about 20 people in each of them. Many more of our customers have ships and we expect to surpass 1,000 installations within the next two or three years.

The technical support is very good.

We did not use another solution prior to this one. A product did not exist for our customers' ships, so we introduced it using the vSRX.

We have also implemented the Juniper SRX and the vSRX takes a little bit longer because the design is more complex. From the design phase to implementation and deployment, it takes between two and three days to complete.

We had a partner do the implementation for us. The maintenance is also done by a partner. We have a lot of vSRX devices out there, and we are not actively maintaining them ourselves, so we have our partner to take care of it.

We did not evaluate other options before implementing this solution. We are Juniper SRX users and we were so happy with that product that we decided the only solution had to be the vSRX.

My advice for anybody who is implementing this product is that the whole thing is about the design. If you design it well, consider how you should introduce it into your organization, and have a good implementor to ensure that it integrates well into the platforms you already have in place, then you won't have any problems with the implementation phase. Having a good integrator is very important.

Feature-wise, this product isn't missing anything. There is nothing that we have asked for that isn't there. Our only complaint is about the reporting.

I would rate this solution a ten out of ten.

I use the solution for network authentication, what you use while accessing the network. In general, controlling the traffic going inside the enterprise and off it.

I find the VPN and the cluster the most valuable features.

The syndication or domain controllers, quick policies, and user rules - like being able to see the IP source and destination could be improved. This feature already exists in Palo Alto.

They really need to improve the GUI.

The stability is getting better. It has got some bugs.

The scalability is good. It's very flexible, but the problem is the GUI is not very easy to use.

They have good technical support but we very rarely use technical support. We go through vendors.

We previously used Cisco.

The initial setup was very straightforward. There was no problem. The initial deployment took about one hour. One person is enough for deployment and maintenance.

I implemented the solution myself.

In Saudi Arabia, Juniper has a problem with marketing. They're less well known. A lot of companies are changing or going with Palo Alto.

With the GUI, the firewall is not easy to use. It doesn't cover all the features. Juniper should enhance the GUI, and make it easier to use. Both the firewall and virtual security are hard to use. It's not easy to configure it and not friendly to users.

I would advise for those thinking about using the product, to make sure they learn as much as possible, and also look to use a redundancy.

I would rate this solution seven out of 10.

We are Value Add Resellers and we provide the Cloud for our customers.

We set up Amazon Web Services as the cloud for our customers.

It's standard, with standard routing.

Juniper vSRX has everything at the moment; they are covering it all and getting into automation, which is great.

The dashboard, customization, API, and pricing are good.

VPN access is an area that needs improvement.

I have been using Juniper vSRX for four years.

This is a product that I have been using it ever since it was released.

This product is very stable.

Juniper vSRX is scalable. 

We have four users in our organization.

Technical support has been very supportive.

The initial setup was straightforward.

We did not use a vendor team, reseller, or an integrator. The implementation was done in-house.

The pricing is reasonable.

I can recommend Juniper vSRX to others who are looking at implementing it.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

The tool could be used without additional work. It is easy to implement.

The IDs of interfaces that are implemented inside of the vSRX maybe should be extended in some cases because there is the imitation of virtual interfaces.

I have been using Juniper vSRX as an end user for five years.

The product is stable.

I rate the solution’s stability a ten out of ten.

The solution’s scalability is high because more than 4000 elements can be deployed.

Around 100 users are using this solution.

Technical support is fine.

The initial setup is easy. We use the special scripts to configure it. It is automatic to configure and implement. 

Documentation.

The tool is sold in a package. Hence, the individual price is very low.

I recommend the Juniper vSRX solution. Its effectiveness depends on the architect's expertise. We've encountered no issues with its deployment in our system. Our collaboration with Juniper has been satisfactory in terms of quality. However, it's essential to consider cloud technology within such architectures. The current solution lacks scalability and might need to be reevaluated based on emerging trends in security with the increasing shift toward cloud technology.

Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.
