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

"Menlo Security RBI's best feature is its threat isolation engine."
"I can't say that there is one specific feature that is most valuable. It's the overall platform that is well-suited to our needs. It's something that is different from a lot of other products or platforms in the marketplace."
"I find all Zscaler Private Access features valuable because each replaces flawed technologies, such as EPAs being replacements for VPN and PR as a replacement for PAM, so I can't mention only one valuable feature. Overall, Zscaler Private Access is a good solution."
"It is straightforward to set up."
"Its impressive scalability allows the combination of multiple dictionaries and using them as one engine, resulting in narrower data loss gaps."
"It's one of the easier products on the market as far as set-ups and deployments. Even across their whole product suite, they've made it pretty simple."
"The UI is easy to use."
"Users get direct secure access to applications over the internet."
"The VPN is great for the stability on offer and for the cloud updates and insights you can get."
"The most valuable features of Zscaler Private Access are reliability, scalability, and availability."
 

Cons

"There are several features, such as supporting web technologies, that the company is working on implementing in the platform. There are a lot of backend web technologies in use on various websites, for example, two-way audio/video and WebGL, for which support may not be fully implemented in the product."
"Menlo Security RBI could be more cloud-friendly, and its mobility could be improved."
"The solution needs to improve a lot of aspects."
"The stability could be improved."
"It needs to offer SSO, single sign-on, and items of that nature."
"The tool must provide IP-blocking features."
"It's an expensive solution."
"There are latency issues with the solution. They are small, however, they are there when you compare it to other vendors."
"The solution's granularity should be improved because it has limited granular options to control, visible, allow, block, delay, and receive."
"They should work on a replica account. There could be alerts and replica files sent to the DLP team during data collection."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Menlo Security RBI can be very costly."
"Pricing for Zscaler Private Access is moderate. It's acceptable, though I can't give you the exact price currently. It's not too expensive, and on a scale of one to five, I would rate it a four out of five in terms of pricing."
"Zscaler DLP solution is expensive, with a fixed pricing structure that is billed annually and monthly. There are no additional costs for licenses."
"There is definitely an ROI."
"The product is a little more expensive than other tools."
"The product is a bit expensive."
"Zscaler Cloud DLP is moderately priced. We pay around 2 million rupees per year."
"The solution is expensive."
"It's an affordable solution"
