The tool is, for the most part, very intuitive. Most of our issues so far (working through them with our Resident Engineer) are the one-off applications. We are working on some exemptions to make them functional. Besides that, the team loves the tool and how it can provide better security than our previous tool.

• The ZCC is the user's primary gateway, but its control over local system network behavior can sometimes clash with enterprise requirements.

Few things stand out. The ease of access: It very convenient - one click to open add details and done. Packet capture: Can't talk enough about this feature. Troubleshooting private access is always problematic,but this feature helped a lot. One thing that can be improved is early warning about expiring authentication

The netskope next gen swg win the evaluation process in the follow features: - Better Deploy process - Don't depend of a VPN connection - Native SSL Decryption - WebUI of easy and quickly understanding - Device compliance evaluation - Flexible Scenarios of Deployment - A private network what connect more efficiently to the most used SaaS Services

All of these tools are for different needs. Zscaler Private Access being for internal seems very simple as it really only allows filtering up to L4 whereas ZIA allows for filtering up to L7. ZDX often tries to give insight into the environment but since it only works with preconfigured items, that then means when a new problem shows up - ZDX isn't helpful troubleshooting postmortem. For the internal side of the house - Zscaler Private Access' strength is its simplicity to configure.

Incentivized

• Complete Control of Web access regardless the location of user
• Deep Application control ( Eg. Allow access just the company tenant of a SaaS App)
• No Restrictions about the device type ( Eg. Windows, MAC and mobiles)

Incentivized

• Positive: We have now charged users internally for the service
• Negative: Dealing with users who also have the Zscaler Client Connector for their company, can cause confusions
• Negative: Enabling the Zscaler Internet Access entitlement has been a major headache for us because Zscaler Private Access users can't autheniticate through ZIA on a non corporate device.
