Overall Satisfaction with Cisco AnyConnect

I am using it as a mobility client so I can connect to my corporate resources remotely. This specifically helps me to use applications like SAP, intranet, etc from home or client office. It enables me to access corporate applications using mobile hotspots, broadband connections, etc securely. It also enabled me to work 24x7.

It is very useful at month end when there is huge workload and we have to work after office hours also. Now instead of sitting in office, late at night we are able to work from home.

Pros

  • Faster and secured remote access
  • Easy to use

  • Costing needs to reasonable
  • You may face Compatibility issue with some systems
  • Antivirus needs to be disabled in some cases

It is a very useful tool because it lets you to work 24x7 as well as access corporate applications from anywhere. It also helps you to increase your work efficiency and productivity. It enables you to connect corporate applications from home, from customer office or even when you are on a business trip.
Their Customer support is excellent. Especially at the time of implementation it helped us very much. Response time is good and query resolution is faster. Support is available by both email and call. Team is well trained and very supportive. I will give 5 star rating to their customer support team.
We choose Cisco AnyConnect over Sonicwall VPN due to its features and security protocols. Cisco is a leading name in network security and everyone is aware of it. Secondly, we were very comfortable with Cisco products due to their service quality and customer support. All these points we evaluate at the time of purchase of Cisco AnyConnect.
