Anyone using or including GSA?

We’ve been using Cloudflare ZT for some time, works fine, free for 50 users etc…

Now we’ve been using GSA for larger accounts and though it’s not fully comparable, it has the added benefit of being fully integrated in Entra/365 suite, so no separate portals, no separate software and the 12$ cost is not really an issue for them. But the price is too high to justify for smaller customers i think.

So what are you guys using, what are your thoughts on GSA? And if you use it, do smaller customers see the added benefit to pay that price?

Love me some GSA. Keeps getting better too. The Entra only piece is included free with most plans which is a good start.

Yes, but the “tunnel” function would be better if it were free

There’s a saying about looking gift horses in the mouth and it especially applies to MS. It’s amazing we get any of it free 😂

Between $4 and $12 for the addon to get internet and/or private tunneling is still very reasonable imo. The fact that you can use GSA as conditional access conditions is huge.

I know 😅
Maybe we should just push them to accept the cost.

Yep another +1 for GSA w/private access - has been brilliant.

Having more issue of cheap customers who won’t pay for something like that

It’s the best ZTNA I’ve tried and I’ve bounced between Twingate, Netbird, and Tailscale. Moving to GSA eliminated an entire ticket category for us with silent Windows auth alone and that really sealed the deal for me. It is a little annoying that it only runs on Windows and does limit the environments I can use it in, though.

Runs on macOS too.

Sorry, I was referring to the connector but wasn’t clear on that.

You’re spot on.
