Zscaler Private Access (ZPA) Reviews

For our main use cases for Zscaler Private Access (ZPA), it’s providing us a VPN solution for our clients, connecting to data build resources, and providing them security.

It's challenging to explain which features of Zscaler Private Access (ZPA) are most valuable because the main client is the IT department in our company, and we, as DevOps, are deploying this solution as infrastructure for them. From our case, and as I'm familiar with this tool, the most value is the VPN connection because it provides access for all company members to data builds in a secure way.

Zscaler Private Access (ZPA) does an excellent job offering secure remote access to internal applications for our distributed workforce because it provides a granular way to grant access for specific people with specific applications.

Zscaler Private Access (ZPA) has been very effective in providing operational flexibility during our company's transition to cloud environments, as it helped us significantly, and it was deployed even before we migrated to the cloud itself.

Concerning improvements for Zscaler Private Access (ZPA), we have occasional issues, but I don't think they are related to the product itself; they may be related more to infrastructure problems or something else related to the network because it's a network application.

The current pain points we sometimes experience relate to the additional security applications we have on the laptops, and sometimes I don't know if I didn't get any notification from the application because it's an agent problem or something security-wise blocking this.

I have been using Zscaler Private Access (ZPA) for more than three years.

I would describe my experience deploying Zscaler Private Access (ZPA) as very straightforward, but I think it could allow more automatic ways to deploy and configure instead of having to connect to each new instance manually and configure it.

We didn’t have any issues with Zscaler Private Access (ZPA)’s stability, availability, or reliability.

I don’t know how Zscaler Private Access (ZPA)’s cloud-native architecture is used for scaling within my company, but we do use something deployed in the cloud, and from my perspective, we only deploy the agent, exactly what we took from the marketplace.

As for support from Zscaler Private Access (ZPA), I might have used it, but it’s primarily handled by the IT team.

I know we had something before Zscaler Private Access (ZPA) to address similar needs, but I don’t remember the application name. The decision to move to Zscaler Private Access (ZPA) was possibly because it’s more native in the cloud environment and provides us an easier way to get or configure this.

In regard to other solutions I considered before implementing Zscaler Private Access (ZPA), I don’t know because the decision on what to use and what to install came from management.

Regarding the micro-segmentation feature of Zscaler Private Access (ZPA), I can explain less, and I think the IT team who are managing it can explain better.

I don't know how Zscaler Private Access (ZPA) has helped minimize lateral movement within our network because I don't know how to measure this reduction.

Since implementing Zscaler Private Access (ZPA), I've not noticed any changes in the visibility or monitoring of user access patterns because it's not part of our responsibility. We deploy it, and the IT team is configuring and monitoring it, fixing issues if it's working or not.

I'm not familiar with all benefits from using Zscaler Private Access (ZPA) that I haven't discussed, as I am only familiar with the VPN-related functionality and the segmentation which provides granular security access for the clients.

I rate Zscaler Private Access (ZPA) eight out of ten.
