Overall Satisfaction with Zscaler Private Access
During the pandemic, we had to implement a new VPN solution because our original one could not handle the load of so many more people working remotely. We now use Zscaler as our primary VPN tool because it is able to handle a large number of users and is much easier to use than our previous solution. It is a must for me because I have worked remotely for my company even before the pandemic.
Pros
- Supports a large number of concurrent users
- Runs in the background
- Handles both VPN and security
Cons
- 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
- Fast VPN access
- Ability to handle a large number of users
- Administration tools for management
- The business was able to run with everyone working remotely
- We consolidated into one tool for VPN and internet security
- Less downtime spent configuring and connecting with the tool
We originally used Cisco AnyConnect but when the pandemic hit and everyone started working remotely the Cisco VPN just couldn't handle the massive increase in users. The connection was unreliable both inability to connect and stay connected. It also seemed to include a lot more time manually connecting to the service rather than handling everything automatically behind the scenes.
