Has powerful event correlations and is stable, scalable, and easy to set up
We use it for insider threat prevention with iPhones and to identify bad practices that block business processes I like that the core functionality is not in different modules. The event correlation is quite powerful. Incident management could be improved, along with enforcement capabilities,…

Zero trust access has transformed remote connectivity and now simplifies secure app usage
Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange Platform, especially Zscaler Private Access, is very strong, though there are a few areas where improvements can be made. One challenge observed is around initial troubleshooting and visibility. While Zscaler Private Access provides logs, it can sometimes take time to pinpoint the exact cause of access issues, especially in complex environments with multiple policies and identity integration. Another area is the dependency on identity and connector health. Since Zscaler Private Access is heavily reliant on app connectors and identity providers, any issues with these components can impact user access, making proper monitoring critical. During the initial setup, policy configuration and application onboarding require careful planning, especially for larger environments with many applications. These challenges are manageable with proper design and monitoring. Overall, the platform delivers strong security and user experience. I would recommend a few improvements, especially around user interface, reporting, and troubleshooting experience. From a user interface perspective, while the platform is powerful, the policy configuration and navigation can feel complex, especially for new users. A more simplified and intuitive layout for policy mapping and application access would help reduce the learning curve. In terms of reporting, Zscaler Private Access provides logs, but having more built-in customizable dashboards and analytics would be very helpful. Better visibility into user access patterns, application performance, and real-time troubleshooting insights would improve operational efficiency. From a support and troubleshooting standpoint, it would be beneficial to have more granular centralized visibility, allowing for quick end-to-end tracing of a user request from authentication to application access without switching between multiple views. These improvements would make the platform even more efficient, especially for large-scale enterprise environments.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I like that the core functionality is not in different modules. The event correlation is quite powerful."
"The most valuable aspect of Zscaler Cloud DLP is its automatic DLP feature."
"It has been helpful in maintaining our infrastructure. The granular level control it offers allows us to set application policies per application for each user."
"The most valuable features of Zscaler Private Access are reliability, scalability, and availability."
"What I find most valuable in Zscaler Private Access is that it's a VPN, and its connectivity as a VPN is its most valuable feature."
"Yes, it is very stable. I have never seen it go down, not once."
"The customer service and support are very good."
"The most valuable features of Zscaler SASE include web filtering, application control, and the private access configuration."
"The solution offers a simplified network infrastructure and security functions and it enables secure remote access for the users"
 

Cons

"Incident management could be improved, along with enforcement capabilities, which DTEX does not have at the moment."
"The solution's granularity should be improved because it has limited granular options to control, visible, allow, block, delay, and receive."
"It would be better if the Zscaler Private Access team made it easier for people to find subscriptions on the portal, mainly information on what my customers subscribed to or the type of licenses purchased."
"The product must allow users to check logs for an entire year in the local console."
"An area for improvement would be the ease of configuration."
"Users report application access or latency issues with Zscaler Private Access."
"The solution needs to improve a lot of aspects."
"It has a limitation, if you are creating a rule or something for a web application or something, you could only add five users, not more than that. Five or four users are only included in a rule. If you want to create a rule for more than five or four users, you have to go through other methods, not particularly with the application. Working within the application with this method would be quite easy as compared to listing a URL or a normal IP address."
"Conflicts arise if you do not have the same management teams on the product."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing wise, DTEX would be a four on a scale from one to ten, where one is the highest price and 10 is the lowest price. It is not the cheapest solution."
"Zscaler SASE software is quite expensive compared to other solutions"
"The solution has increased prices this year."
"The cost is expensive. It depends on the number of users."
"Zscaler Cloud DLP is moderately priced. We pay around 2 million rupees per year."
"The pricing is quite high, especially when it comes to the gateway."
"The solution is expensive."
"The technical support is good."
"Zscaler CASB is an expensive solution."
