The account management team have been really knowledgeable and helpful. Professional services have embedded themselves as part of our team and have been absolutely fantastic throughout the whole process. The quality of professional services excels in comparison to most other vendors.
I appreciate the flexibility in applying Labels, which enables multiple possibilities for segmentation and control. Additionally, the speed at which rules and modules can be configured and applied makes the workflow more efficient. The visibility of the environment at the communication level, with a focus on lateral movement, bad reputation and policy violation, provides an important protection aligned with the Zero Trust concept, ensuring that communication can only occur under specific conditions, this is incredible. The support team is excellent too.

There are some limitations with the platform when segmentation policies need to refer to devices without an agent or orchestration.
We had some challenges in ensuring agent compatibility with AIX machines, which limits coverage in certain scenarios (layer limitation for example). Additionally, recurring Enforcement Missing KO issues arise when keeping OS kernels up to date in the environment, sometimes requiring support tickets to resolve, but usually much faster to complete.

Guardicore Implementation Reduces Micro Segmentation Rollout Time From Months To Weeks
The Guardicore experience we received from start to finish was impeccable. Normally after signing on the dotted line, we never hear from the sales team again and everything goes downhill, however this was not the case. The experience was flawless all the way through from start to finish. Now that we are up and running, the post support has also been exceptional - 10/10. Being based in Australia, the team assigned to us was outstanding and in are time zone, even if they did not know the answer to something they would have it by the start off business the next day and a detailed answer as well not some cut and past job from a text book, - IT SECURITY & RISK MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATE10B+ USDManufacturingReview Source

Granular Segmentation Enhances Security But Monitoring Features Remain Limited
Akamai Guardicore Segmentation delivers reliable granular segmentation with a lightweight kernel-based deployment model that makes rollout efficient across large, heterogeneous environments. Its monitoring capabilities aren't as comprehensive as some competitors, but it consistently proves effective at automatically designing and enforcing granular policies, reducing lateral movement and strengthening an organization's security posture.
