What do you like best about the product?

What I like most about Menlo Security is how easy it is to administer and how transparent it is to the end users. From an admin perspective, the management console is straightforward and intuitive, which makes it easy to roll out policies, monitor activity, and make changes without unnecessary complexity. Day-to-day operations don’t require constant tuning, which saves a lot of time for our security team.

On the user side, Menlo runs quietly in the background. Most employees don’t even notice that their browser traffic is being protected because there’s no noticeable impact on performance or browsing experience. This balance—strong security without disrupting productivity—is what really sets Menlo apart for us.

What do you dislike about the product?

There isn’t much to dislike overall, but if I had to point something out, it would be the initial setup and fine-tuning, especially around regional routing and localization. For organizations outside major regions, some websites may behave slightly differently at first due to cloud egress locations. It’s not a deal-breaker, but it does require some coordination during onboarding.

That said, Menlo’s support team has been responsive and helpful whenever we’ve raised concerns, and once everything is properly configured, the platform runs very smoothly with minimal ongoing issues.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Menlo Security addresses the risk of users unknowingly accessing dangerous or malicious websites. No matter how strong user awareness training is, there will always be cases where someone clicks a suspicious link or visits an unsafe site. With Menlo’s browser isolation and cloud-based protection, those threats are contained before they can ever reach the endpoint or our internal network.

The biggest benefit for me as an administrator is the confidence it provides. I have peace of mind knowing that even if users make mistakes while browsing, the organization remains secure. This allows us to focus less on reacting to web-based incidents and more on improving our overall security posture, while users can work freely without feeling restricted.
