Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Okta, ForgeRock and others in Access Management."Their technical support is phenomenal."
"Cloudflare, in my opinion, was easy to implement."
"The feature that I like best is the GUI."
"Technical support is pretty good."
"The most useful feature of this solution is Cloud Control, which allows me to schedule cloud uploads."
"In Azure, we have multiple subscriptions and with every subscription, we add some kind of instance ID. We can work with the instance ID so that we allow all of the instances containing nodules. Everything else, we block. This way, if you go to outlook.com and check your email, if you log in with your company account, the instance ID will show. The network will take action according to the instance ID and say, "You are using the enterprise email. I'll let you surf. I'll let you see your email." But when you try to log in with your own email address, like Hotmail or Gmail, the instance ID will be different. This way we are not completely blocking Outlook, but we are blocking people from accessing their Outlook. We are only allowing the enterprise-level emails, and we are not allowing user-based emails."
"A feature that was valuable was the built-in website classification or safety ratings. Different websites would be rated according to analyses that the Netskope team had done, and we built policies on some of those scores. If the website scored less than a certain percentage, then we would have a different user experience around how the site would interact with the clients."
"The interface is good."
"The automation offered by the product is pretty solid."
"The initial setup of Netskope CASB is easy, it is not complex."
"One of the issues with Cloudflare Access as a VAR is that Cisco won't sell to you directly."
"The pricing is an area that can be improved. Pricing, as far as I recall, was the source of our problems."
"The solution is still pretty new to the CASB environment."
"It needed some fine-tuning on core business sites that we used, which were sensitive to what we term a man-in-the-middle certificate by design. Some sites were not tolerant because they presented as potentially malicious. So, we just had to make some tweaks so that it would bypass or interpret it."
"They could improve their mobile agents as they have some limitations."
"Third party integration with other cloud applications could be improved. Sometimes the API won't be working, but Netskope is taking it seriously. They accept all the feature requests, and they are trying to provide whatever we ask from them."
"Netskope CASB can improve by working more similarly to a VPN technology instead of a proxy. They then could have visibility on the endpoint device. Most clients have some tools where they check the endpoint health or other things, such as the security posture, or if they want to access the resources. For example, if they should have antivirus running, this kind of posture check should be available but it is missing."
"Deployment and policy tweaking were two areas where improvement needs to be made."
"The dashboard performance could be much better and faster, but because it is a complicated product, it takes time for the dashboard to process."
"Support services could definitely be improved. Support is the one area that can always use improvement. It's an evolving thing, so based on demand and based on market requirement and the way market is moving towards."
