Connect Secure functionalities
Reviewed on 2018/10/07
Pros
Easy to use software to connect through VPN (Virtual Private Network) to the company's internal network.
This software provides a secure extension of the local area network (LAN) over a public or uncontrolled network such as the Internet, to access the internal files (with the necessary permissions) of the company where you work safely.
It has a simple interface, it is selected the connection previously configured by the system administrator, click connect and now.
Cons
I have not detected any disadvantages yet. You must have the necessary permissions to access and this gives robustness to the security of the information established by the company.

By using it on a daily basis I had a lot of issues with some of its versions whenever there's a small "drop" or lag in the network, which basically would kill my whole connection thus making me to re-connect and reopen all the closed software.
Other than that, when it does work it provides me a gateway to my company's corp network.
Pros
Easy connections to VPNs and corporate networks.
Cons
Sensitive to network fluctuations which can be tedious sometimes.

I use pulse with a large enterprise client that has numerous remote workers. I have never had a connection issue! You hardly notice you're connected to a VPN. Connections are quick, whether connecting or disconnecting. It works with my DUO 2fa easily, and I can even request a push instead of entering a password.
Pros
- Easy to connect
- Consistent Signal
- Taskbar app
- Mobile/Smartphone options
- LDAP Integration
Cons
- Setup isn't super intuitive
- The app stays open even when I've disconnected

It avoids the permeability and/or breakage of data that is in use, circulating through a network or accumulated in a terminal or server. These procedures are essential to prevent the loss of legal information of great value to the company, the department and the clients.
Pros
It involves all those experiences, techniques and provisions proposed for the convenient management of computer resources and files. In addition, it contains the skills and abilities that will be developed in the face of any event or improper administration of security protocols. The goal is to find the most unpredictable element of cybersecurity, which is the individual.
Cons
By outsourcing services we create dependencies with suppliers. This may have negative impediments from an information security point of view

It has helped us by letting us connect in an easy way wherever we are to continue our job.
Pros
The ease to use the software, everything is done in a one click fashion. And it also has a lot of options to log in to the vpn in case you don't want or cannot use a method.
Cons
Sometimes 2 step authentication can be strangely hard to make and if you do not disconnect the vpn, it may reset whenever you close or open the computer instead of being paused.

I haven't had any issues with this software. I use it daily to connect to a VPN. I didn't do the initial set up, so I don't know much about that, but I do know that once it is set up, there isn't much to it. I just click "connect" and type a password and I am in. About as easy as it gets. No frills.
Pros
Easy to get what you want. If you want to connect to one VPN, just click "connect". If you want to connect to another, same thing. Minimal footprint on desktop. Easy to see relevant information.
Cons
A little slow to connect, but maybe that means the software is verifying a secure connection?

Employees working from home were unable to access their email or network drives without opening our network up for external hacking. Connect Secure allows each employee to verify their ID and connect to the network securely and access the same files and programs they could while connected to the wired network at the office.
Pros
Our company uses Connect Secure by Pulse Secure to allow it's workers to connect to our network via a virtual private network. This allows us to use our Outlook mail and access our network drives while we are at home or on the road.
Cons
I haven't found a con to this software yet. It works flawlessly.

Overall, Connect Secure is an extremely easy to use VPN service that provides secure connections to a companies web server. As long as you have an internet connection and valid network credentials, accessing the companies web server remotely is very very simple.
Pros
What I liked most about Connect Secure is how simple it is to use. Once you have established the network you want to connect to, all you need to do is enter in your credentials and you're in. This makes working remotely incredibly easy as you have access to your network just as if you were in the office.
Cons
The only complaint I have with Connect Secure is that it runs in the background no matter if you are using it or not. It is not very memory intensive, and you do have the ability to disable the Startup Launch so this is more of an annoyance than a major con.

Great enterprise class VPN that keeps it simple for end users, but a little lacking for power users that want to get their hands dirty.
Pros
When it comes to VPNs, simplicity is king. I downloaded the client, entered the VPN url, and hit connect! After entering my username/password, I was in and that was it. You can't get any simpler than that. On top of it, the Pulse Secure platform has nice web-based features as well for connecting to the VPN and accessing resources from within the browser.
Cons
While simplicity is definitely king, sometimes there are a few options you wish you would have! For me, it was the ability to decide which traffic goes through the Connect Secure app and which stays within the local network. Because I can't let local traffic stay local, I ended up having to remote to servers that I could normally access directly.

Pros
My company uses Connect Secure to ensure our information is secure when working from home. It's a necessity for our business, especially as we have all been able to transition to remote work.
Cons
No cons. It's a very simple application to run. It works in tandem with PingID, which can be used to verify your login action. All-in-all it's two clicks.

It was set up by our helpdesk, so I don't know from the administrator if it's easy to use, but I don't notice any problems on a daily basis - it works in the background, logs in properly, and I have access to all resources.

Not sure what it looks like from an admin perspective, but as a user, I have never had an issue using it.

Overall, this software is a simple, quiet, and smooth way to provide yourself protection without taking away from your productivity.
Pros
I use this software on my work computer to protect healthcare data. I love that it is light software that runs in the background without constant popups and notifications. It does not take up a bunch of RAM or battery while it is running, which I have experienced with other security options.
Cons
I do not have any complaints about this software. It runs quietly in the background and does not interrupt my work experience in any way.

The interface is simple and installation and setup is easy. I like the options to easily manage multiple VPN profiles in one place.
Cons
It's too slow and unreliable at times. Secure VPN connections sometimes takes too long to connect using this application and often takes up valuable development time. Had multiple issues authentication issues with it often. Not so seamless to use.

Pros
Not everyone gets he working principle behind it but it helps you connect to a private network and access files from outside the private network. It is just fascinating.
Cons
THE SETUP, I could blame the organisation for the improperly setting up and not providing enough instructions but at the same time, ConnectSecure should have a searchable list of the private networks on is trying to access provided that anyone can look those up anyways, the authentication is still there.

Pros
This software gives you another level of security when logging in to secure websites giving you peace of mind that your information isn't compromised.
Cons
It can be a little bit cumbersome to set up because it takes several steps and you are required to have a smartphone to get the passcodes so you can be linked in correctly.
