What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Security + Easy Implementation It has Web Filtering/ IPS/ Anti-Malware . so no need to add extra security device. though IPS & Anti-Malware need separate CATO License.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Customer Support & Troubleshoot. They have small customer support team in Singapore. But Their main technical team is in Isreal. so due to the different time zone, sometimes, during major outages, difficult to get support from technical team. however Singapore team is supporting as much as they can.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
This is very easy to setup and coming with Security Features. if you have multiple sites in different geographical areas/ countries , It will give you optimized latency / east to setup & administrate along with network security, that will help you to manage your all the site's in a single CATO dashboard. And you can get all the required statistics/ logs from the Dashboard in a clear way. this product is Easy to Use but Powerful .
