We performed a comparison between Skyhigh Security and Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Palo Alto Networks, Cisco, Zscaler and others in Secure Access Service Edge (SASE)."The most valuable features are the antivirus as a whole, the anti-malware, and all of the protection features that scan our enterprise devices."
"The protection offered by the product is the most valuable feature. It detects vulnerabilities or traps on our users' phones and then prompts them to clean up their devices. Tools we used previously would only discover, which required us to gather information on the backend, so Lookout is a welcome upgrade."
"On the outside, the main differentiation is because Lookout ingest. They have ingested basically all of the apps for the last ten years and all the versions of all the apps, and we have that in a corporate database that allows us to do very large-scale machine learning and analysis on that data set. That's not something that any of the competitors really have the capability to do because they don't have access to the data set. A lot of the apps you can no longer get them because that version of the app is five or six years old, and it just doesn't exist anywhere anymore, except within our infrastructure. So, the ability to have that very rich dataset and learn from that dataset is a real differentiator."
"The solution is stable."
"All the information available on each service, including its risk assessment."
"I found the solution to be stable."
"What I found most valuable in Skyhigh Security is its stability. The solution also has good KB articles that make it simple for users to do the deployment of Skyhigh Security themselves, without the need for integrators."
"Box API features with DLP capabilities."
"The support is excellent."
"Without Skyhigh, we had zero visibility, but now we are aware of so much more."
"We have gained a deep insight into our Shadow IT usage as well as the different activities involved in Office 365."
"Shadow IT reporting capabilities."
"SASE's most valuable features are proxy and content filtering."
"Yes, it is very stable. I have never seen it go down, not once."
"It is easy to use."
"The most valuable feature of Zscaler Private Access is the categorization of the dynamic URLs which keeps the customer's environment protected. The threats and the malware are correctly categorized."
"With SASE, we have a single platform that covers multiple task services with which we need to control access. All the features are equally valuable."
"I like the web filtering capabilities."
"I like its ease of use. It has a single pane of glass for the ZIA and ZPA pieces. It is very manageable. It is also very easy to deploy for secure access, and it gives half-decent coverage for visibility in terms of what the users use and what data is being proxied through the access gateway."
"The most valuable features are the File Type Control and SSL bypass policies. We"
"The stability depends on the service from where you access it. Because sometimes, the place you are in, you have Gateway. You don't have Gateway. The gateway is overutilized. At the end, you need to go through their gateways. And this is the key point here. You have a tracking point. If it's not well orchestrated, and it scales up as you add more to the existing team, you will suffer"
"From the analysis that we've done, they do seem to be maybe a step behind in trying to enter the market with a new solution. But when they do pick up, they do come out with some good products."
"We just submitted an enhancement request reflecting the main area we want to see improvement in; the APIs. Currently, we're able to build dashboards, but it's somewhat backward because we use our MDM API to create them. Lookout should provide API to customers so we can query our data and use it in our cloud, and this is the only outstanding area for improvement with the product right now."
"Lookout was moving into the SSE space. And so their work on SecureWeb Gateway and SD-WAN is still sort of evolving."
"There isn't really any aspect that is lacking."
"User interface could be more intuitive."
"It is an expensive solution."
"I would like to see more power being given to the admin. In the sense that in case an employee is facing an issue and they want to configure a service, like attaching an email in Gmail, for example, they should be given the option to make the service request and get that configured on the go."
"The Skyhigh for Google Drive interface and policy engine is a bit confusing and limited when compared against other Google Drive CASB capabilities."
"The secure gateway could be improved."
"De-tokenization."
"Though the Skyhigh Dashboard is processing large amounts of data, the speed of the Dashboard could be improved."
"We'd like to have two-factor authentication that is quite simple."
"There is improvement in enhancing proper manageability, policies, and logs. So, log management could be improved."
"We would like to extend the SASE applications for Zscaler."
"An area for improvement would be the ease of configuration."
"The granularity in blocking is not sufficient, as new domains are automatically blocked for 30 days without further information."
"Zscaler Private Access could improve by improving external access. If external parties want to access locally to my company's services, we need to onboard them into our domain, otherwise, it doesn't work. Additionally, if their company also has Zscaler Private Access, then it doesn't work. They need to log in with our domain ID, not their company ID."
"The DX layer could be better if it had improved visibility."
"Zscaler Private Access needs to improve its collaboration with applications without compromising security."
