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 tool's scalability is good."
"What I find most valuable in Zscaler Private Access is that it's a VPN. Its connectivity as a VPN is its most valuable feature."
"The solution offers a simplified network infrastructure and security functions and it enables secure remote access for the users"
"We don't need to connect anymore. It is automatically connected when you log on in Windows."
"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 product’s most valuable features are inbound and outbound scanning and API control."
"The ZPA is a unique feature which offers VPN along with all the additional security needed."
"The product provides a seamless user experience."
 

Cons

"The product's interface needs improvement."
"The interface needs a bit of work."
"I can't speak to any missing features."
"We faced certain migration and implementation challenges in executing the tasks, so I would suggest improvement related to the stability of the solution."
"Having a Zscaler-specific device could streamline this process and provide a more consistent user experience across diverse branches."
"Zscaler Cloud DLP needs to improve its compatibility with other security tools."
"An area for improvement would be the ease of configuration."
"Price-wise, it is a costly product and it should be reduced."
"In the next release, I would like to see RE2 Regex supported."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product has average pricing."
"The cost is expensive. It depends on the number of users."
"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."
"Zscaler Private Access can be an expensive solution, depending on the license type you will purchase."
"There is definitely an ROI."
"It is an auto-renewal subscription service."
"The licensing model for Zscaler Cloud DLP allows you to only buy what you need. You don't need to buy it as a whole, so it's good."
"The solution has increased prices this year."
"Zscaler SASE software is quite expensive compared to other solutions"
