What do you dislike about Salient Systems?

System configuration and troubleshooting can sometimes feel less intuitive, particularly in more complex deployments. In larger systems, performance optimization and bandwidth management can also be challenging if the setup isn’t carefully planned and designed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
