Been using Tippingpoint for many years and we are very happy with performance, detection, support and ease of 
installation and management.  The system requires very little maintenance and has great reporting.

Hello Everyone,

We recently decided to implement an IDS/IPS system to complement our existing security mechanisms. I have used Snort 
for some time on the perimeter of our network, but found the system difficult to maintain. What system is everyone 
using, what are your likes/dislikes, and how was the implementation? Thanks in advance!
