Find out in this report how the two Unified Threat Management (UTM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I like that it works fine. Stormshield is a very good solution."
"The solution has improved my organization because I can see what traffic is happening and I can use it to block and prevent attacks."
"I like how you can configure the rules. There is the task for the rules and a task for the network configuration. It also provides SMD filtering, and it can be integrated with the active directory for the users, their mission, and the VPN configuration. We are here in Sudan, and Stormshield didn't work in Sudan for more than a decade. Stormshield is a very strong firewall and very easy to configure and maintain. I am just working with the firewall solution, and we don't have any other solutions like endpoint solutions or something like that."
"A very robust product."
"This solution is quick and easy to configure."
"Easily manageable in a variety of environments."
"Ease of use is the best feature of the product."
"Our organization's main concern is stability, and this is a stable solution."
"The initial setup is very straightforward."
"One feature that is valuable to me from an implementation point of view is that it's very easy to implement."
"The data loss prevention feature is the most valuable. It stops our users from inadvertently leaking our customers' data to the Internet or anywhere else it shouldn't go."
"The initial setup was straightforward. The biggest thing for us was to build our own policies. The deployment itself was only a few hours."
"The solution offers a distributed organization to master and to control all of the endpoints."
"Zscaler excels in security protection and the cloud is always up-to-date. It does not matter if you are a small or big organisation, you will receive the same security quality."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to drop packets."
"It is easy to set up the solution."
"This is not a next-generation firewall."
"The biggest issue was their support department was not able to help us, then everything stops. This is a no-go area for me."
"It could be better if it were more user-friendly. It's too complicated for us to use it. The price could be better as well."
"Not all the fields are activated yet and we were informed that it will take at least one month."
"This solution has a big problem with web filtering and it needs to be improved."
"Stormshield Network Security is quite expensive."
"The product must improve its pricing."
"The SD card could be more secure."
"The tool should improve the predefined dictionaries."
"In terms of usage, here in the GCC, it's still growing a growing market, so the combination of DLP, data leak prevention, to a certain extent is fine. But what it requires is user-based access or role-based access. The solution needs to grow into that, which definitely takes time. There's not an easy way to integrate it, when you have a cloud-based solution."
"In terms of user experience, it could be better."
"There are a few features that are not compatible with the Azure cloud."
"The main issue with Zscaler Internet Access is proxy IP detection, which sometimes makes sites inaccessible."
"When you have appliances, SSL inspection is always a headache due to poor performance and/or lack of ciphers implemented. "
"One thing that they could improve is the ability to import rules from other platforms."
"Zscaler Internet Access can improve by adding traffic filtering based on the DNS."
