"The initial setup is straightforward and easy in comparison with other solutions.""The product's most valuable feature is complete SSL inspection.""The initial setup process is easy.""The best feature is that Zscaler allows for a separation between cloud applications and URL filtering. For example, under the cloud application segment, I can bypass Microsoft Office 365 without the need to add URLs manually. It's one click, so that's handy.""Cloud IPS integration is seamless, and it uses a Zero Trust model. It also simplifies overall user access management."

Cons
"The deployment with certain systems can be difficult and it needs to be simplified.""The Windows online integration license needs to be improved.""Cloud monitoring could be better. It would also be better if the company followed a pay-as-you-use model.""An area for improvement in Tripwire Enterprise is stability, as my company had stability issues with the last few versions of the solution. Tripwire Enterprise has been a bit buggy.""A lot of network devices need a custom integration.""The initial setup is complex.""The main way that it can be improved is through better reporting.""It needs more local support from the OEM side. It would be great if this can be improved."

More Fortra's Tripwire Enterprise Cons →

"They have given limited free access for a year. Instead, they should increase the file size and give limited free access for around two months. It will allow engineers to evaluate the product.""When it comes to scalability, the IPsec could be improved.""There is always room for improvement.""We recently had a significant issue with Zscaler. I think they have too many customers and some of their connection edge nodes went down because there were too many requests. I think they aren't scaling enough to keep up with the demand in some areas. That's one thing they should improve.""We encounter issues sharing IP addresses with other companies using the software."
