Netskope One: Essential Visibility and Seamless Integration for SOC Operations
What do you like best about the product?
Netskope One provides comprehensive visibility and detailed control over cloud and web traffic, which is essential for today’s SOC operations. Its real-time threat protection and data loss prevention work effectively in hybrid environments. The integration with existing security tools is smooth, improving overall threat response.
What do you dislike about the product?
Netskope One provides robust security capabilities, but the initial setup and policy configuration may be challenging without dedicated support. Some user interface elements are not very intuitive, particularly when accessing detailed logs or generating custom reports. Integrating with certain third-party tools sometimes involves manual steps. Performance may fluctuate slightly during periods of high traffic.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Netskope One provides detailed visibility into cloud and web traffic, helping us uncover blind spots in user activity and data movement. It supports incident investigations by allowing us to track communication across SaaS, web, and private applications, which helps us detect suspicious behavior more efficiently. With contextual alerts and comprehensive logs, collaboration between SOC analysts and other teams is streamlined, leading to faster response times and reduced dwell time.
Unified Security and Strong Performance, but Complex Initial Setup with Netskope One Platform
What do you like best about the product?
I like best about the Netskope One Platform is its unified approach, combining multiple security functions into a single, easy-to-manage platform. It offers strong zero trust enforcement with deep visibility across cloud, web, and endpoints, all while maintaining great performance and user experience. This helps simplify operations and strengthen overall security posture efficiently.
What do you dislike about the product?
One challenge with the Netskope One Platform can be its complexity during initial deployment and configuration, which may require significant time and expertise. Additionally, some advanced features might have a learning curve for teams new to integrated security platforms.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Netskope One Platform solves the problem of fragmented security by unifying cloud, web, and network protection into a single, manageable solution. This eliminates gaps in visibility and enforcement, reduces complexity, and improves threat detection and data protection. As a result, it streamlines operations, strengthens overall security posture, and ensures safer access to cloud and web resources for my organization.

Netskope : A modern security platform with integrated AI
What do you like best about the product?
Most liked part of this product is that you can configure to route all the traffic through the Netskope cloud to filter (HTTP/HTTPS) for deep analysis, this feature of Netskope is quite useful to protect your organization from any attack and you can add exceptions to bypass the traffic of trustworthy apps. You can integrate the device classification to make the dependency of Netskope on other apps like antivirus.

What do you dislike about the product?
Most disliked part, I would highlight that their agent will disable or go into failclosed conditions automatically without any changes made from admin side. Second, they don't have any uninstaller tool, so if they provide then that will be very useful for the clients which are unmanaged from the dashboard. Its implementation will take some expertise so better go with OEM support while purchasing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Previously we were using the forticlient software for cloud security and VPN solutions and Trend Micro for DLP in those products we were facing issue like delay in implementation of policies and the highlighting part of this product is that it has the CASB feature which we were lacking on those solutions.
It is helping our organization like we can provide the access according to the role and that much of access which is necessary like if a user requires the upload access so we can only provide him the uploading rights and he can't be able to download any file from that portal which protect the organization from any malware.

Simplifying Cloud Security with Netskope One
What do you like best about the product?
One of the main advantages of Netskope One Platform is consolidation. Instead of buying and managing separate tools for firewall, proxy, VPN, DLP, etc., organizations get everything in one place. This reduces complexity and improves response time to threats.
What do you dislike about the product?
For small to mid-sized businesses, licensing can be expensive, especially if deploying the full SASE suite.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data Leakage from Cloud and Web
Problem: Users may upload, share, or download sensitive data to personal apps (e.g. Gmail, Dropbox).
How Netskope helps: Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policies control where and how data can move — across web, SaaS, and private apps.

What is our primary use case?
How has it helped my organization?
Netskope has positively impacted our organization by securing all our systems, and the response time is also less, with a high catch rate for any incident.
What is most valuable?
The best features that Netskope offers in my experience include SSC for secure services, CASB which helps to protect from different attacks, SWG feature, cloud firewall, SDPN which helps to create an instant connection, and remote browser isolation which isolates uncategorized and risky websites.
Compared to Checkpoint as SaaS, the catch rate of Netskope was very high and the system consumption rate such as RAM, ROM, and memory consumption for Netskope was less compared to Checkpoint SaaS. Netskope has positively impacted our organization by securing all our systems, and the response time is also less, with a high catch rate for any incident.
What needs improvement?
Netskope's pricing is very high compared to other vendors, and compared to Zscaler, Netskope has less capability.
For how long have I used the solution?
In my last company, I have used Netskope for around one year.
What was my experience with deployment of the solution?
We encountered some challenges during the configuration process, but the Netskope support team helped us cope with all the challenges.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Netskope is stable, but sometimes it can cause some errors.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Netskope is scalable.
How are customer service and support?
The customer support experience was moderate. When asking critical questions, we did not receive responses on time, but for general queries, we received timely responses.
I would rate the customer support a six on a scale of one to ten.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Neutral
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I did not use a different solution before Netskope.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup with Netskope was straightforward.
What was our ROI?
I have seen a return on investment with Netskope as we saved a lot of time by catching all the threats and thoroughly understanding the cases.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I did not evaluate other options before choosing Netskope.
What other advice do I have?
There was an incident where a user was attempting to access a malicious website. The user's attempt caused a download of malicious software in the system, but because of Netskope, we were able to track all the logs and block that particular malware at the network level.
I cannot give an exact rate for how quickly Netskope detects and blocks threats because that rate changes every day.
Netskope is deployed in our organization as a hybrid cloud. We are using AWS as part of our hybrid cloud setup. We purchased Netskope through channels and other vendors, not through the AWS Marketplace.
The deployment of Netskope in our environment was medium scale. Billing depends on how you are using Netskope, and according to my experience, it should be discussed with sales people. Questions regarding pricing, setup cost, and licensing should be directed to higher management as I do not have visibility into these aspects.
If your company has a quite complex or normal setup, you can use Netskope as it is the best solution for catch rate and return on investment.
I rate Netskope eight out of ten because some complex issues are not diagnosed properly and responded to correctly by their support team, plus there are sometimes issues in the product.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
Hybrid Cloud
If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?
Amazon Web Services (AWS)
