User Testimonials
	Palo Alto Networks Prisma Access	Zscaler Private Access
Likelihood to Recommend	Palo Alto Networks Depending on the complexity of your equipment, devices, the network you are with, the size of your company, or the budget you are willing to pay, you should consider buying Prisma. I have in mind that it is a tool to make the leap to extra security for your devices; it is a complex tool that cannot be learned in a single day. Without a doubt, I would recommend her to a company that has a proven track record and knows what it wants.

Pros	Palo Alto Networks Complete control and configuration of iOS devices across our network. Great username options in the latest version to help keep our devices organized and easy to manage. Easy to enroll devices to connect to the VPN. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Zscaler Access control for overall organization, follows the ZTNA model. Better speed for remote users compared with legacy remote solutions. Better visibility on ZScaler portal, thus better control from central space. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	Palo Alto Networks It lags a bit on new features It is best used with an entire Palo Alto environment Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Zscaler Sometimes the interface crashes and I need to kill it and restart It can unintentionally block some services like dropbox I don't get a notification when I need to re-authenticate Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Palo Alto Networks The management of connections is much more seamless with the Palo tool. AnyConnect was always a nightmare to get in and manage individual connections to what can and cannot be accessed based on IP addresses. We ended going with the newer methodology of remote access so that our users would be authenticated prior to entering login credentials. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Zscaler Both are good but sometimes relationship and cost is the factor to decide the final vendor.
