"A much simpler administration of the security of our company."
4.5/5
What do you like best about Cisco Security Manager?

The main reason why I like this software is because it is very simple but powerful, it is able to keep our computers away from any intrusion in them, it offers a centralized and scalable administration, it is very easy to use, it provides high visibility, it is very efficient and safe and ideal to monitor the status of each team as well as its performance and the best thing is that it is super customizable, which is why it is so efficient to be implemented at the business level regardless of the size of these companies.

What do you dislike about Cisco Security Manager?

Its integrations are really limited since it only allows integrations with Cisco tools, so I think it would be great if they were much more extensive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Super useful program"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Cisco Security Manager?

The interface is pretty easy to use and most of the features I have to use a lot! I think it's event management tools are what we use the most and I find it most helpful in terms of providing rapid navigation from events to source policies Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cisco Security Manager?

Having to use a secure log in at all is a minor annoyance in that it takes extra time and raises the risk of your operation timing out during the security process. But Cisco made it as painless as possible. It also does not allow integration with other platforms from other providers that are not Cisco. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
