Overall Satisfaction with Zscaler Internet Access

Restricting users from unapproved sites, malicious site blocking and allow access to pre-approved sites.

Pros

  • Blocks malicious sites
  • restricts sites according to policies
  • user awareness to suspicious sites

Cons

  • URL category identification
  • changing of URL categories without notification
  • we had a large upper management group at an event that had captive portal issues. This was a big issue that could have caused a lot of hurt. Not sure if it would have a monetary value though
not sure if I'm just used to the portal but it has been really easy to work with and learn
