Since it is the same as open-source Istio but with enterprise 24/7 support, it is the right product for large corporate companies. It is easy to set up through Helm chart and has all the capabilities of Istio like traffic management, robust security, observability, and much more.

**What do you dislike about Aspen Mesh?**

No point to make it here as it covers all the aspects

**What problems is Aspen Mesh solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Decoupling the security and observability from the application and managing the traffic effectively, also we get 24/7 support since it is an enterprise product.
