What do you like best about Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE)?
Cisco ISE devices allow identity managers many facilities when making several authentication mechanisms interoperable, such as AAA + (Radius and Tacacs), Directory Services (Active Directory and LDAP). This interoperability allows a fast, centralized and easy deployment of an identity management for acces to a large number of devices and network services. It is easy to use and fully scalable Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike about Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE)?
The recommended use of an ISE device must be in an enterprise environment beacuse the license are expensive. For small companies in a high investment. And it is unlikely that they will take advantage of all their functionalities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE)?
It’s ability to handle AAA and radius configurations for remote devices.
Also it’s feature set when coming to dot1x and and policy creation allows for a lot of different customization for allow, blocking, or restricting access to your network with either BYOD or enterprise machines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike about Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE)?
The user interactive is almost overwhelming when you first look at it. There’s a lot of different menus and a lot of hidden/unintuitive menus and settings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE)?
The product worked as expected without any issues. The systems integrated with minimal impact to our users. Cisco Support was superb and always willing to help with any roadblocks that were found with the product itself. The logging is very clear. Whenever users say they can't authenticate, the reason is immediatly listed in the logging dashboard. The policy configuration can also be done in any way you like. It's easy to structure and has quite a lot of predefined objects/actions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike about Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE)?
Requires 3rd party implementation initially and also updates tend to introduce other bugs and aren't always as useful as they would seem. Automatic profiling could be improved more. Licensing model--too granular and greedy. MDM integration is a separate cost per user, etc., and is unreasonably expensive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
