Pros

Feature Ratings Average rating of all product features, some of which may not be shown below

Mitigation Minimizing the effects of compromised intents aims at making the intent-based system operationally safe by providing checkpoint and safeguard mechanisms.

Security Mechanisms and practices may consist in intent verification and validation; operations on intents by authenticated and authorized users only.

Natural Language Speak the language of the user as opposed to requiring the user to speak the language of the device/network.

Explainability Resolution of conflicting intent, reconciliation of what the user wants and what the network can actually do and actually did.

Monitoring Observes the network and its exhibited behavior including events and performance outliers, performing measurements to assess delivered service levels.

Outcome-driven Users do not need to be concerned with how intent is achieved and are empowered to think in terms of outcomes.

Single Source of Truth A single set of validated intent expressions and state information of the system.

Assurance Compare the actual network behavior that is being monitored and observed with the intended behavior that is expected per the single source of truth.

Learning Availability in the system of capabilities or means for learning, reasoning, and knowledge representation and management.

Intent Translation Translate user intent into courses of action and requests to take against the network, which will be meaningful to network configuration and provisioning system

Abstraction Supporting different forms of expression of intents and being capable of refining the intent expressions to well-formed and exploitable expressions.

Vendor Capability Ratings Average rating of all vendor capabilities, some of which may not be shown below

Vendor Support The importance of vendor support will vary for each organization depending on internal capabilities, but there will always be issues that only the vendor can resolve.

Business Value Created Software needs to create value for employees, customers, partners, and, ultimately, shareholders. This data expresses user satisfaction - or lack thereof - with the product's business value.

Usability and Intuitiveness End user learning curves cost the organization money. Pay attention to your end users' technical ability to determine how important UX is in your purchase.
