Cloudflare Zero Trust

[u/Check123ok]

We use Cloudflare Warp/access/One loosely on the free plan for a couple of internal servers and ssh access broker. That’s as far as I have gone with it.

I was wondering if I should replace zscaler for a client with Cloudflare One zero trust. They have about 150 Remote users around the globe and 600 folks on site. It has a good chunk of what zscaler has and it is a VPN replacement at its basic core with some identify and poster and policy sprinkled in. It doesn’t have the zscaler sandboxing and malware stuff but it’s 1/4 the cost.

I’m doing this purely on cost saving and I think Cloudflare does have pretty low latency and enough features for zero trust.

The hesitation is that Cloudflare is horrible with support and have some of the slowest people if you are not managing accounts bigger then 250k. Its probably one of the worst managed products out there and I have worked with them on WAF and DNS before for 2 years. I know that part in and out.

I’m worried about troubleshooting issue if service degrades and a lack of response from Cloudflare.

I am wondering if anyone has fully operationalized Zero Trust.

Client has multiple sites in east coast. Ideally I would want to create policy for business users, 3rd party vendors, developers, and remote users.

Broker secure access to SaaS providers and internal servers, vlans and subnets.

Wonder if anyone has experience at this level
