Cisco Secure Access vs. Cloudflare Zero Trust Services

I think it's a good product for companies that has a lot of branches, not for small companies. I would say medium to large companies that need to have a good visibility. What do they have in the network and somehow interconnected with the security department that will also review the logs from ISE and make conclusions about what do they have in the network.

I wanted to securely connect to my servers without getting tracked by malicious attackers, even though I was on public Wi-Fi. Security was my top priority, and I also wanted a setup that was easy and quick to start and provided great network performance. Cloudflare's Zero trust matches my criteria for becoming my first choice.
