Cloud gateway has strengthened remote web security and now needs better Mac and ISP support
The problem our organization had is that iboss failed for the Mac devices. It is not able to give a successful agent for the Mac agents. That is where in 2025, we had to migrate to the Palo Alto-based platform. If your use case is for just Windows laptops,you can consider this platform as an option One issue is the data center resiliency part. In India especially, they are not tied up with the Tier 1 ISPs like Tata or Airtel; they were having Tier 2 ISPs and encountered many issues reaching few major sites that my organization depends on, and they were having problems that they could not fix quickly. They also lack a mechanism to route that traffic within their data center; rather, they ask customers to make a pac file change to route it to Singapore explicitly. It would be better if they route from their backend , i mean even if I send it to India DC, they should be able to route it internally to make that work; however, they fail to do that and ask the customer to route it in the pac file. Another suggestion is that in China, they do not have the proper setup; they used to have numerous problems with slowness and lack of premium circuits in China as well. That leads to multiple sites working slowly with latency-related issues. So the main issue is the ISP-related problems that need to be solved.

Centralized management has simplified branch connectivity while cost and pricing could be optimized
When speaking about features, I think the most effective features of Prisma SD-WAN are the centralized management; I don't see any complications here. Centralized management improves network visibility because if I want to configure multiple branches and firewalls, it could be quite complicated. When I have the centralized system, it's easier for users to access branches and manage all the firewalls in the branches. We have the opportunity to use SD-WAN application-aware traffic management. With multiple branches and ISP connections, we track applications and divert traffic depending on ISP connections and speed.
