We performed a comparison between Versa Unified Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) Platform and VMware NSX based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Cisco, Fortinet, Check Point Software Technologies and others in Software Defined WAN (SD-WAN) Solutions."It is very easy to deploy. The GUI interface is really good, and the security features are also very good. It is also stable and scalable, and their support is also good."
"The necessary enhancement pertains to the controller segment, specifically addressing the issue of frequent flapping when a link is left. In the case of Versa Unified, if a link experiences frequent flapping within an entire branch, it triggers instability. Hence, it is imperative that the overall routing system is not contingent solely upon the active dial branches."
"There are great security and ops features without the need for having a different box for security."
"The initial setup is simple."
"I like all the features. We utilize different LAN, bandwidth transferring, bandwidth balancing, and mappings. We use it as a centralized solution, and use the same product at all our locations."
"Versa FlexVNF is a scalable product because it does not have any hardware dependencies. This makes it a versatile solution that can be easily integrated with any firewall."
"The granularity when it comes to configuration and security features are valuable."
"The most valuable aspects of the solution are the next-generation firewall features and geo-blocking capabilities."

"It's very important for them to have small footprints and have as much services in their servers, as possible."
"The most valuable feature is the integration with the firewall."
"The ability to scale from different clouds. At the moment, the scalability of the product is the number one thing that I saw."
"Overall, I would say the solution has been quite stable."
"The we can actually extend Layer 2 networking across datacenters, and also Layer 3 networking, which comes along with it."
"Firewall security is one of VMware NSX's vital features"
"VMware NSX is a very good solution. It's also a scalable solution."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to create, develop, and deploy servers in minutes to hours, rather than days."
"The security should be improved."
"Another thing that should be improved in Versa are their firewall features."
"The web interface can be improved."
"The solution lacks a mobile version where small, manageable platforms can be developed."
"We are thinking about how to make customers consolidate the loads to an SD-WAN network so that the customers can have bigger chunk from the SD-WAN side so that customers can have critical data be transferred with NPS VPN and non-critical data or some labeled traffic can be transferred by the SD-WAN network. I think it's a very important direction for digital transformation."
"The solution's current customer support is not that good. So, they need to improve that. Also, the solution's UI is quite complex, so they need to simplify it."
"I heard about them for the first time just before I started working on Versa. They do have blogs for information, but they could publicize more about the documentation and architecture. It doesn't seem to have that much exposure, and they should work on their customer base more."
"We've had the odd occasional stability issue with software upgrades."

"I would like to see automation capabilities in the deployment process."
"The integration with other brands is not the best."
"Occasionally the licensing is not very clear. They should make it easier to understand."
"It still needs to grow. There are still some features that it doesn't do, like it doesn't do multicasting."
"The solution is only sold as part of a bundle and not as an individual product."
"I would rate this product an eight because it's a good product but it needs more work. They should fix some of the bugs."
"The feature it can improve is essentially application-based load balancing with intelligent load distribution for applications that require redundancy and high availability."
"Nowadays, NSX supports the KVM and ESXi hypervisors only. It should also support Hyper-V and Citrix hypervisors."
