Better Manageability of console. Product is user friendly as the deployment was custom tailored to be without intervention and configuration also surpassed all customer expectations. The implementation of product has also been a fantastic experience as the transition of existing policies were quite easlier for transition. As we are using this product on a daily basis, we have been able to mitigate the challenges faced earlier and ease the administration to a subtle level. The ease of integration with several compatible OEMs were also much effective and substantial. While the product have seen use cases been met properly, customer support is also one very useful and important delight where we got good support in terms of technicality and ease of use.

Cato SASE Cloud (Secure Access Service Edge) is a popular cloud-native networking and security platform. While it has many strengths, including ease of deployment, centralized management, and strong security integration, there are some common criticisms or potential drawbacks that users and analysts might point out: Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

CATO is reliable, the hardware, the firmware, I have had no issue. I think the Categories are well kept up to date, and detection of the app is pretty good. Support can be great at the end. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am noticing about 10 ms for interVLAN routing, which is in my opinion too much latency, and much higher than any other things I have seen. When reviewing the monitoring, sometimes, adding multiple filters for something is not possible, or not that easy to figure it out. The license is very expensive. I cannot believe when I removed a site there was no licensing change or saving for the customer. Support often gives useless insights on ticket updates. The firewall rules don't seem to have a policy checker, or I haven't seen it. The rules are not easy to understand at first. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like backbone private connectivity and how the sites communicate with each other automatically after connecting a site is a very nice feature Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

improve speed inside country by doing caching Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Deployment and management of new sites and resources are what I like best. The service is just extremely agile and scalable.

We have been using Cato for about 5 years. I have also evaluated other SASE companies during contract renewal periods and have not found anyone that compares. In my opinion it is not even close. Cato is the best Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Downside is not really a huge downside it is just a matter of learning new technology. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

CATO SASE platform is the best console setup for every manager and network administrator. When we first looked at the demo we first noticed that how easy and simplistic the interface was, but how advanced the configuration allowed us to implement without utilizing additional software, tech support or specialists. Implementation was extremely fast, the implementation team was very knowledgeable, and customer support team is very fast to respond to tickets and escalate any issue regardless of importance. My personal favorite features include the ability to use multiple ISPs simultaneously, configure on-site hardware within the console, reporting and application analytics all within a single product.

BGP routing has minimal features and integration if you integrate with another 3rd party network connections. Network planning with routing could be improved, still track that on a spreadsheet, if you have a lot of subnets and sites you have to track those network subnets. Would be nice to have the ability to setup a list of available subnets and assign them to a site/network. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We originally implemented Cato to replace our legacy VPN solution with something more reliable. In the process, we gained extremely detailed insights into the network traffic on our endpoints, and the ability to block threats at the network edge. Cato has been transformative in our ability to monitor and control network traffic, and it has been extremely reliable as a VPN solution for our fully remote workforce.

There is not a lot to dislike. The biggest impactful issue to our organization is having to block DNSSEC in Cato for macOS users - this is more of a macOS problem than a Cato problem, but if they could find a more elegant solution for us, it would eliminate our only real pain point.
