PrivacySOC 2 audited and PCI DSS compliant; regular patch releases address component CVEs; no breaches found in sources reviewed.⁹No known public vulnerabilities found in the sources reviewed.13
Support qualityG2 Best Support award; small review sampleNo reviews found
Public sentimentReddit chatter is thin and mostly VMware-migration questions, while available G2 and Gartner reviews skew positive, especially on support.15No customer reviews of Instelligence were found; every review source matched unrelated 'Intelligence' results like a 2020 TV sitcom.14
Biggest gotchaPer-core enterprise pricing with no public list; expect sales negotiation16Guess: no published pricing, demand fixed-fee scoping before migration engagements.12
