Comes with data leak protection features but technical support is too slow
We use the solution for endpoints.  The solution's most valuable feature is data leak protection.  Safetica ONE's technical support is too slow.  I have been using the product for six months.  I rate the product's stability a nine out of ten.  I rate Safetica ONE's scalability a five out of…

Zero trust access has transformed remote connectivity and now simplifies secure app usage
Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange Platform, especially Zscaler Private Access, is very strong, though there are a few areas where improvements can be made. One challenge observed is around initial troubleshooting and visibility. While Zscaler Private Access provides logs, it can sometimes take time to pinpoint the exact cause of access issues, especially in complex environments with multiple policies and identity integration. Another area is the dependency on identity and connector health. Since Zscaler Private Access is heavily reliant on app connectors and identity providers, any issues with these components can impact user access, making proper monitoring critical. During the initial setup, policy configuration and application onboarding require careful planning, especially for larger environments with many applications. These challenges are manageable with proper design and monitoring. Overall, the platform delivers strong security and user experience. I would recommend a few improvements, especially around user interface, reporting, and troubleshooting experience. From a user interface perspective, while the platform is powerful, the policy configuration and navigation can feel complex, especially for new users. A more simplified and intuitive layout for policy mapping and application access would help reduce the learning curve. In terms of reporting, Zscaler Private Access provides logs, but having more built-in customizable dashboards and analytics would be very helpful. Better visibility into user access patterns, application performance, and real-time troubleshooting insights would improve operational efficiency. From a support and troubleshooting standpoint, it would be beneficial to have more granular centralized visibility, allowing for quick end-to-end tracing of a user request from authentication to application access without switching between multiple views. These improvements would make the platform even more efficient, especially for large-scale enterprise environments.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the data classification."
"When you subscribe to the DLP, the system manages and protects your files well from the cloud."
"This is a good solution, is easy to deploy and is scalable."
"Safetica NXT provides you with an enterprise-quality data loss prevention system that anybody can pick up because the cost is low and it's easy to manage."
"The most valuable things about Safetica ONE are its comprehensive features, competitive pricing, and a strong focus on data security and compliance."
"Safetica ONE is easy to use and set up. We can set up rules and policies quickly."
"ESET Safetica is a cost-effective solution for customers who need a small quantity along with a competitive price."
"It is a stable solution...The initial setup of Safetica ONE is simple."
"It has some good data security and WIP features, providing secure Internet access."
"I like the web filtering capabilities."
"You can close your data protection gaps with Zscaler. You can quickly find all the classified, sensitive data across the cloud."
"The platform offers advanced threat protection features and embedded AI/ML capabilities, making it more proactive in blocking threats."
"The most valuable features of Zscaler Private Access are its ability to integrate with multiple IDPs and application segmentation."
"Sandboxing, DLP, and SSL inspection engine are the most valuable features of Zscaler SASE."
"The solution offers a simplified network infrastructure and security functions and it enables secure remote access for the users"
"The VPN is great for the stability on offer and for the cloud updates and insights you can get."
 

Cons

"ESET Safetica’s stability could be improved."
"One area for improvement in Safetica is its firewall integration feature."
"Safetica One has every other thing that you need, so I cannot give Safetica NXT a higher mark because it does not have the full features of the enterprise solutions."
"The product needs to improve support."
"There are some minor issues with the price and support of the solution that needs to be improved."
"The solution's most valuable feature is data leak protection."
"This solution could be improved if it was available on Linux as well. Currently it can only be deployed on Mac and Windows."
"Safetica ONE fails to support Linux."
"It has a limitation, if you are creating a rule or something for a web application or something, you could only add five users, not more than that. Five or four users are only included in a rule. If you want to create a rule for more than five or four users, you have to go through other methods, not particularly with the application. Working within the application with this method would be quite easy as compared to listing a URL or a normal IP address."
"In the next release, I would like to see RE2 Regex supported."
"The connectivity monitoring part should be included in the core license without any extra charges."
"Zscaler CASB should include integrations with other SaaS applications."
"We would like to extend the SASE applications for Zscaler."
"Zscaler Private Access needs to improve its collaboration with applications without compromising security."
"I rate it a seven because I am still working through some kinks from a performance and a support perspective."
"Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange Platform probably needs to be more efficient because scanning takes a lot of time. Some vulnerabilities create issues, and when we wanted to identify the source of the vulnerabilities, specifically focusing on mobile ID and related areas, it was unable to provide assistance."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing cost for this solution depends on the deal size and your use case. In our instance, it costs $35 per user per year. This is a reasonable price."
"Customers need to pay for a yearly license per device."
"Safetica ONE is expensive."
"The pricing for ESET Safetica is less as compared to other solutions. The customers have to pay only for the license."
"The pricing is expensive and on the higher end. Honestly, in my opinion, it is not worth the price."
"The product is a bit expensive."
"It's an affordable solution"
"The solution is expensive."
"Zscaler SASE software is quite expensive compared to other solutions"
"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."
"The product has reasonable pricing."
"It's expensive currently. But when purchasing for a large number of users, there's room to negotiate. It's really up to the procurement team."
