We've been holding off replacing our Cisco Anyconnect clients as the interface of GlobalProtect is a big downgrade for us.
Any idea when/if there will be improvements made to the GP UI?
At the moment it looks like it was developed by engineers with no UI team. Why do you have to go into a menu to connect to the VPN? It's the sole/single purpose of the application, it shouldn't be hidden away. It looks like an early '00's Windows Form app which makes it hard to sell to our execs. They want simple and visually pleasing. GlobalProtect is a backwards step for them and I don't blame them, they don't care about the options on the back end.
I think it's about time PA reskinned the VPN client
