We performed a comparison between Check Point Quantum SASE and Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Palo Alto Networks, Cisco, Zscaler and others in Secure Access Service Edge (SASE)."On the outside, the main differentiation is because Lookout ingest. They have ingested basically all of the apps for the last ten years and all the versions of all the apps, and we have that in a corporate database that allows us to do very large-scale machine learning and analysis on that data set. That's not something that any of the competitors really have the capability to do because they don't have access to the data set. A lot of the apps you can no longer get them because that version of the app is five or six years old, and it just doesn't exist anywhere anymore, except within our infrastructure. So, the ability to have that very rich dataset and learn from that dataset is a real differentiator."
"The solution is stable."
"The protection offered by the product is the most valuable feature. It detects vulnerabilities or traps on our users' phones and then prompts them to clean up their devices. Tools we used previously would only discover, which required us to gather information on the backend, so Lookout is a welcome upgrade."
"The most valuable features are the antivirus as a whole, the anti-malware, and all of the protection features that scan our enterprise devices."
"Our investment in quality hardware has proven to provide a better customer experience. They heavily rely on Check Point Firewall and Check Point SaaS Connect to safeguard their networks from external threats and attacks."
"The solution offers both client and clientless versions for good remote access."
"The monitoring and granular policies are very helpful."
"The product has a reasonably high pricing."
"Overall, the unified agent covers endpoints as well as prevents web browser attacks."
"It is a very stable solution."
"The tool is easy to use and set up."
"The product’s ability to block phishing sites is valuable."
"The most valuable features are the File Type Control and SSL bypass policies. We"
"SASE's most valuable features are proxy and content filtering."
"It does the job. What it is needed for. I can use it for VPN, I can use it for secure connections, I can use it as a firewall. So the solution does the job."
"The most valuable feature of Zscaler Private Access is we do not have to connect to a VPN, it is seamless. It is more convenient for us because we use one agent to cover the internet and VPN access."
"The most valuable features of Zscaler Private Access are its ability to integrate with multiple IDPs and application segmentation."
"Users get direct secure access to applications over the internet."
"We don't need to connect anymore. It is automatically connected when you log on in Windows."
"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."
"From the analysis that we've done, they do seem to be maybe a step behind in trying to enter the market with a new solution. But when they do pick up, they do come out with some good products."
"The stability depends on the service from where you access it. Because sometimes, the place you are in, you have Gateway. You don't have Gateway. The gateway is overutilized. At the end, you need to go through their gateways. And this is the key point here. You have a tracking point. If it's not well orchestrated, and it scales up as you add more to the existing team, you will suffer"
"We just submitted an enhancement request reflecting the main area we want to see improvement in; the APIs. Currently, we're able to build dashboards, but it's somewhat backward because we use our MDM API to create them. Lookout should provide API to customers so we can query our data and use it in our cloud, and this is the only outstanding area for improvement with the product right now."
"Lookout was moving into the SSE space. And so their work on SecureWeb Gateway and SD-WAN is still sort of evolving."
"Automation and scalability are areas where the solution lacks and needs to improve."
"The support is not very good."
"The solution requires you to buy a minimum of 50 licenses and that is not practical."
"The access to the portal should be faster. It shouldn't crash a lot."
"They should work towards the WAN intergration."
"The tool could be more user-friendly."
"They could improve on the available public documentation."
"When it comes to firewall configuration, sometimes we encounter issues."
"Sometimes applications crash on some machines, and we’d like Zscaler to give us some information as to why that may have happened. We’d like more detailed reports."
"Users report application access or latency issues with Zscaler Private Access."
"The granularity in blocking is not sufficient, as new domains are automatically blocked for 30 days without further information."
"Zscaler Private Access could improve by improving external access. If external parties want to access locally to my company's services, we need to onboard them into our domain, otherwise, it doesn't work. Additionally, if their company also has Zscaler Private Access, then it doesn't work. They need to log in with our domain ID, not their company ID."
"There is improvement in enhancing proper manageability, policies, and logs. So, log management could be improved."
"While Zscaler supports client-initiated connections, it does not support server-initiated connections. This is a feature that Zscaler may consider adding in the future."
"Conflicts arise if you do not have the same management teams on the product."
"It's an expensive solution."
