What I found most valuable in Symantec Proxy is that it doesn't have any limitations. It also has a simple configuration, with only one window pane, unlike Zscaler, which has multiple window panes. Deploying the agent is also more straightforward in Symantec Proxy.

The Symantec antivirus suite and the proxy component are the most valuable feature. That's probably why management decided to purchase the solution.

The Symantec database, also known as Symantec Site Review, is a valuable feature that upgrades the categorized restriction on any URL. Symantec also provides another service for malware database integration. This in-house application and data give us higher management and a better understanding of the treatment for new vulnerabilities and rates. Overall, these are the most valuable features for me.
