    It is very much suited for organizations that have a great consideration of protecting their data/assets. It is an expensive solution. Hence SMB segments require to find out something which can be similar to achive this. However, there are very few players in the market who has single pane configuration pane, which is one of the key benefits of Forcepoint ONE.

    I still think Palo Alto Networks Prisma Access is the best SASE/SSE product out there. It just has such good granular controls and up to date security definitions that you can feel absolutely secure in your purchase. GlobalProtect was a lifesaver for me when COVID hit so yes I had to work my butt off to get it up and running quickly and as secure as I possibly could but it worked amazing and had excellent performance after we got it running and tied to MFA, certificates and security policies.

    Pros
    Forcepoint
    • Forcepoint ONE is particularly effective at identifying and blocking sophisticated threats, including those that attempt to evade detection by traditional security solutions.
    • The platform uses a combination of advanced analytics and human expertise to constantly monitor activity on networks and identify anomalies that may indicate an attempted attack that is why Forcepoint ONE can quickly block threats and prevent them from causing damage.

    • With all of it's unique features it does take some time to get folks up to speed in regards to supporting/managing the software.
    • Doesn't always play nice with non Palo Alto software.

    I still say that Palo Alto Networks Prisma Access is the best. I love their GUI, their policies are easy to manage, the sales team is VERY helpful (especially when support is not). I still recommend them to everyone I talk to.

    Ease of use Microsoft Defender was a great product, but it looked like it is too risky to have only one vendor for all our needs. Fortinet has a lot of improvements to make to consider in the enterprise segment.

    The McAfee product really isn’t a great option. The configuration is a nightmare and requires a lot of time. The policy management has a high learning curve.

    Return on Investment
    Forcepoint
    • There is no one-size-fits-all answer to this question, as the impact of Forcepoint ONE on a business's overall objectives will vary depending on the specific goals and objectives of that particular business.
    • However, in general, businesses that have implemented Forcepoint ONE have seen a positive impact on their overall objectives, with many reporting increased productivity, improved security, and reduced costs.

    • It is extremely easy to manage who has remote access in our organization now.
    • It has allowed us to more fluidly get remote workers up and running.
    • Another tool to mange is never a good thing and the Panorama UI could use a little work.
