Aviatrix Cloud Network License Service

I am leveraging additional connectivity features, applying zero trust within the cloud network, simplifying cloud network management, and gaining more insights into what is happening within the environment.

It has enhanced the way I can deploy and manage VPCs and other connectivity services. It has provided valuable insights into latency, ports used, and top talkers, and it has offered effective troubleshooting tools.

The most valuable features are real-time topology, uniform Terraform  modules across all public clouds, and troubleshooting tools such as Flightpath and packet capture.

One area that could use improvement is IPv6 support.

I have used the solution for one year.

There were no deployment issues.

I did not encounter any stability issues.

I did not face any scalability issues.

I have not interacted with customer service.

I did not use a previous solution.

The initial setup was straightforward.

The implementation was handled internally by our team.

The cost should be compared to the pricing of native services, which often include a data processing component.

I did not consider any alternate solutions.

I do not have any additional advice.

We use Aviatrix for automation and to get rid of manual jobs.

The most valuable feature of Aviatrix is that it saves us a lot of time.

Aviatrix should include more integrated security features like intrusion detection and lateral movement detection.

I have been using Aviatrix for more than ten years.

Aviatrix is a stable solution.

Aviatrix is a scalable solution. Most of our customers for Aviatrix are medium and enterprise businesses.

The solution's technical support is fine, and we don't have any problems with it.

Neutral

The solution’s initial setup is very easy.

You can get Aviatrix up and running in a day or two.

Aviatrix is a pretty expensive solution. Users have to pay a yearly licensing fee for the solution and the support. You can't buy the product without support.

Aviatrix's maintenance includes a normal upgrade, which one person can do.

Overall, I rate Aviatrix a nine out of ten.

It felt like a dual approach: on one hand, we were learning, and on the other hand, it helped organizations simplify and optimize their cloud networking, security, and operations.

One of the aspects I found most valuable is its ability to make changes and roll them back quickly. In an AWS context, you could connect a couple of virtual private clouds, even if they weren't originally meant to be linked. What I particularly appreciated was that it was cloud-agnostic, so it didn't matter if you were working with AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud; it seamlessly operated across different cloud providers. Within the Aviatrix ecosystem, you could connect different clouds, and the intricacies of low-level commands and configurations were abstracted away. 

There can be a steep learning curve for users who are not familiar with it or multi-cloud networking concepts. Training and support may be necessary to fully leverage its capabilities.

I have worked with it for approximately two years.

I found it to be a stable product.

Occasionally, I had to consult the Aviatrix online forums for guidance when things didn't go as planned. Its community was helpful during these troubleshooting moments.

I encountered some issues during the initial setup, largely because I didn't follow the step-by-step instructions diligently. I made changes directly within my AWS account, which led to some complications with the scripts provided for setting up and tearing down lab environments. This approach caused the script to break at various points, and I had to manually troubleshoot and debug the issues. Overall, it is generally straightforward, but it requires precise adherence to the provided steps.

It operates on a consumption-based model and the expenses depend on factors such as the number of virtual machines you use and the resources consumed. The basic license costs were reasonable.

Besides being a consumption based model, the license cost for the Aviatrix software is high, so it could be a significant financial challenge.

In the realm of multi-cloud networking, I would suggest conducting a search for "multi-cloud networking" to explore the landscape of available solutions. Instead of investing significant time in writing scripts and manually establishing these connections, Aviatrix offers a more streamlined approach to join these diverse cloud environments, so I would recommend it.

We use the product to manage cloud connectivity and security for multiple cloud solutions like Azure, AWS, etc.

The product has greatly improved our organization by saving costs for multiple direct connections and simpler cloud configurations.

Aviatrix’s most valuable feature is firewalls. We can secure any cloud solution using it.

There could be an easy availability of multiple features in the profile.

We have been using Aviatrix for six months.

I rate the product’s stability a nine out of ten.

I rate the platform’s scalability a seven or eight out of ten.

We used Azure Connect before. Later, we switched to Aviatrix for multiple cloud connectivity.

The initial setup process may have a few challenges as you are working with it for the first time.

I rate Aviatrix an eight out of ten. It is a good product. I advise others to make purchase decisions based on their business requirements.

We use Aviatrix to connect our network together. 

The connections are seamless, and we can access the static clouds on the platform itself. We are also able to trace the issues. The most valuable features of the solution are security, user interface, and performance.  

The solution needs to improve the onboarding architecture.
