We performed a comparison between Citrix SD-WAN and Versa Unified Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) Platform based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Software Defined WAN (SD-WAN) Solutions solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The scalability and stability are quite good in general."
"It allows us to use additional VPNs, offering more options compared to other VPN solutions."
"It lowered our Internet costs and gave me the flexibility to choose providers based on each location's connectivity."
"The zero-touch deployment is most valuable for us."
"The tool is quite cost-effective because it replaces the need for MPLS, which is a bit expensive...Citrix SD-WAN doesn't need much maintenance."
"We are using it widely for the local record for SaaS-based applications. Another valuable feature is a local breakout."
"The solution is brilliant, the way it calculates its paths and trails is great."
"The best feature is the backup capability, where all of the users' computers are tied into a central data repository."
"The granularity when it comes to configuration and security features are valuable."
"Their dashboard is also a good point for us and the customer. The solution is very clean and easy."
"Overall, it's nice and very user friendly. That's what makes it so successful. They give you complicated features but with a very simple user interface, and that's been a big success for them."
"It's very powerful, especially for engineering teams."
"The initial setup is simple."
"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 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."
"The product has a dynamic VPN feature for SD-WAN."

"The initial setup could be a bit easier."
"I would like to see support for additional reporting."
"Given that Citrix SD-WAN solved all our problems by providing us with everything we needed to unify communications with our branches and data centers, I cannot suggest anything further in terms of improvements."
"I would like to either see the price reduced or have it packaged with other products to give better value for the money."
"Citrix SD-WAN does not have the SD-WAN with one optimization in a single license. Other competitors have this option and it should be added to this solution."
"The only improvement for Citrix SD-WAN would be to lower its cost."
"Enhancements are needed to improve the stability."
"Overall, network security and next-generation firewall features are areas that they can improve on."
"The solution lacks a mobile version where small, manageable platforms can be developed."
"The support needs to be improved."
"Certainly, there are areas that require enhancement, and the current focus is on improvements. Presently, I believe that the emphasis should be on enhancing user interface (UI) features, particularly over end devices. The issue arises when attempting to log in to Versa from other devices, as the UI is not device-specific. Consequently, guiding someone to log in to Versa antivirus becomes challenging. Despite the absence of issues on the website, the lack of a login scope impedes graphical representation of user data or databases. Since work databases support only a limited range of features, I recommend augmenting features for end devices to address these limitations."
"The VPN feature is relatively new. It came out two releases ago, and they're still fixing that up."
"With the pandemic and changing work models, it would be ideal if the product more accessibility options or more diversity within the solution itself."
"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."
"The stability of FlexVNF's controller and devices could be improved."
"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."
