Versa Unified Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) Platform Reviews

The solution is great at picking up orders.

There are great security and ops features without the need for having a different box for security. 

The product would be better if they could think of more enterprise options. They need more variables and sizing models for larger clients. 

With the pandemic and changing work models, it would be ideal if the product more accessibility options or more diversity within the solution itself.

We've been using the solution for the last three and a half years.

The solution isn't great for scalability if you have an enterprise-level organization. It's more for smaller companies and less so for larger ones. That might limit it for some users.

Overall, I would rate the solution at a nine out of ten. We've been pretty happy with it so far. 

Among our clients, there are roughly 30-50 employees using this solution. 

Versa Titan is very flexible. It integrates well with third-party devices. 

Our customers are very satisfied with this solution. They have not mentioned any areas for improvement. 

Versa Titan is stable. 

Their technical support is very good. Their response times are good. They provide us with very clear information — it's excellent. 

The initial setup was very straightforward. Deployment took a few hours. 

Deployment only required two engineers. 

We pay on a yearly basis. There are no additional costs. 

Overall, on a scale from one to ten, I would give this solution a rating of ten.

I am working as a network engineer, and I test the performance of virtual routers and other products. I work in a lab environment where we test the performance of these products. I have worked on Data Plane for Versa. We have a controller deployed, and we have different templates on it.

The division of Control Plane and Data Plane is most valuable. It can be deployed anywhere, and you can control it and configure it from anywhere. This is one of the good features of this solution.

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.

I have been using this solution for only six months.

It is easy to scale if you know about the SD-WAN technology, and you have worked on a similar solution. It is similar to other SD-WAN technologies and components. If you are experienced in working with other SD-WAN products, it will be easier. If you don't have a clue about it, it will be a problem.

In terms of the number of users, in my team, there are 15 to 20 people. We get a requirement, and then we work on it. For example, a customer has a requirement for Versa Flex to be deployed in their environment. Sometimes, there may be ten people working on it, and sometimes, there may be just two people working on it. It depends on a customer's requirements.

Their technical support is good. We directly communicate with Versa if we have any issues or questions. Their response time is really good. 

Our issues were related to some glitches. Some of our test cases were also not working fine. They helped with what we were doing wrong. In our test environment, we had different configurations, and they were pretty helpful about that.

I've worked on Viptela's SD-WAN technologies.

It has a straightforward setup.

If you are trying to implement Versa Flex, I would recommend understanding how all the components work and stick together. You should know this because this is a next-generation technology using which you could deploy an orchestrator in other environments. You can then deploy your nodes on various sites, such as a physical site or a cloud environment, and control them from there. You should have good knowledge of how this technology works, and then you should appropriately use its new features, which segregate it from legacy routers.

It is a great product with good scalability features. It is good compared to other leading products in the market. I would rate Versa FlexVNF an eight out of ten.

I primarily use FlexVNF for SD-WAN, connecting all our branches, and the main steering.

The most valuable features are the main steering and the firewall. The security features and SD-WAN features are also quite good.

The stability of FlexVNF's controller and devices could be improved.

The stability could be improved.

FlexVNF's scalability is quite good - they implement using a template configuration, which allows for good scalability.

Versa's technical support is good.

Positive

I've also used Forcepoint, and I prefer FlexVNF.

The setup was quite easy and took around a day.

I would give FlexVNF a rating of six out of ten.
