Cisco Umbrella is helpful because it provides robust, multi-layered security that protects against a wide range of cyber threats, offers comprehensive visibility and control over internet activity, and ensures consistent protection for both on-premises and remote users.

"It has been fairly adequate dealing with Umbrella for DNS"
3/5

I think that it makes my job easier as someone who manages the network in my organisation, that i can query the DNS properly for all the computers connected in the network. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cisco Umbrella?

I would prefer if there were some changes into the UI and ease of access. It was kind of daunting to use it at first, as i found the learning curve to be quite steep. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Cisco Umbrella?

I like about the working of Cisco Umbrella. Nowadays Cyber attacks are very common and developers and companies are struggling to save their assets and Cisco comes up with the feature of protecting from cyber attacks. The gooththing is it blocks the request before anyone trying to connect with the different server.

Very ease of use, and it will always in the system so you don't need to manually do anything, ease of integration. Protect us from Malware, Ransomware, Phising and other attacks. Customer support and resolution is top-notch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cisco Umbrella?

One thing I don't like is some-times it fails to load when we change the Wi-Fi address or change to other network. It might due to setting-up the internal parameters. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"An evaluation in which the benefits outweigh the harms. Satisfied with the Umbrella product."
4.5/5
What do you like best about Cisco Umbrella?

I think Umbrella's DNS Security Essentials package is sufficient for general use. Other packages have many advantages and benefits, but most features other than umbrella's DNS filtering feature are available in different products. Different products are currently used. I think it is easier to sell the DNS Security Essentials package at a more affordable price to convince companies.

The product works smoothly in large structures. After giving the necessary permissions according to our current structure, we can set our customized rules and use them directly.

Log tracking is also done very well. Thanks to AWS integration (Cisco Cloud Security App), it can be integrated with many SIEM products.

If I had to rate the DNS Security Essentials package in terms of price and performance, I would say 8/10. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cisco Umbrella?

I did not like the package distribution of the product according to its features. Additionally, it only takes a long time to define large networks during the first installation. The fact that we cannot sign our certificate with our own CA and import it into the umbrella in the DNS Security Essentials package is a bit of a bad feature.

"All in one threat intelligence"

What do you like best about Cisco Umbrella?

I like the protection against threats that causes more harm than other threats. As we can't control employees, it better to be ready to handle what employees can do dangerous things. Umbrella does that all threat intelligence from malware, Trojans,botnets, phishing etc and safeguard with incident response Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cisco Umbrella?

As of now didn't found anything but it varies from user to user in the context of configuration and implementation Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
