Cloud-based platform simplifies device and data center management
I find it to be good. The solution is cloud-based with the latest inspection engines, which I find to be amazing. We are less dependent on data centers and device management, which reduces our efforts significantly. It improves our device management, data center management, and updating devices. We need fewer engineers for this management, and it reduces time and efforts for data center management, device upgrades, and IT support.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The technical support team provides good services and faster response times."
"The agent's versatility is notable, used for digital experience monitoring to collect valuable endpoint metrics for troubleshooting."
"The solution is cloud-based with the latest inspection engines, which I find to be amazing."
"It is easy to use."
"The solution offers a simplified network infrastructure and security functions and it enables secure remote access for the users"
"You can close your data protection gaps with Zscaler. You can quickly find all the classified, sensitive data across the cloud."
"The most valuable feature is the manageability of the micro tunnels."
"The product's most valuable features are cloud-based services and secure internet access. We don't have to set up any physical appliances."
"The most valuable features of Zscaler SASE include web filtering, application control, and the private access configuration."
 

Cons

"The product's interface needs improvement."
"Occasionally, issues arise in the LogStack by a third party, particularly for government websites accessed by numerous users."
"The pricing for Private Access seems to be on the expensive side, and I believe they should consider making it more competitive with other solutions."
"The product must allow users to check logs for an entire year in the local console."
"We have issues with the tool's maintenance and networking. It should be able to work in offline mode as well."
"We'd like to have two-factor authentication that is quite simple."
"There aren't really any missing features that I have witnessed."
"Zscaler CASB should include integrations with other SaaS applications."
"Another area of improvement is implementation through non-client connectors. The solution can be implemented in two ways. One uses the back file; the other one uses client connectors. So the client connector is pretty fast, but when it comes to non-client connectors and procedures, it's kind of delayed and slow."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product has average pricing."
"The technical support is good."
"The product is a bit expensive."
"The pricing is expensive and on the higher end. Honestly, in my opinion, it is not worth the price."
"Zscaler DLP solution is expensive, with a fixed pricing structure that is billed annually and monthly. There are no additional costs for licenses."
"The product is a little more expensive than other tools."
"Zscaler SASE software is quite expensive compared to other solutions"
"It has been relatively reasonable for what it does. Some of the additional license costs based on the advanced next-generation firewall functions are quite high, and they should have certain features ready and available as a baseline rather than having to purchase additional licenses for it. Overall, the cost seems reasonable."
"My company is a Zscaler Private Access partner, so the customers pay for the license fees."
