Ensure great user experiences for your essential applications
Don't let nonessential traffic like streaming video and social media slow down your critical applications. Enforce simple, powerful bandwidth control, delivered as a cloud service.
Prioritize business-critical applications
Improve the user experience for all apps
Reduce costs and simplify IT
Traditional traffic solutions are not enough
SaaS apps like Salesforce, Zoom, and Microsoft 365 are essential tools for daily productivity. Unfortunately, they often compete for bandwidth against users' personal and entertainment apps. And when critical apps slow down, so does your business.
To ensure fast user experiences, you need to ensure bandwidth priority for critical apps. You can deploy next-generation firewalls or UTM appliances at each site to route traffic and enforce bandwidth rules. However, managing these is complex and costly, and they scale poorly. They aren't designed for bandwidth shaping, and if there is a conflict, they drop data packets, hurting the user experience.
Solution Overview
Simplify bandwidth control by moving it to the cloud
Bandwidth Control empowers you to preserve quality of service for business-critical apps regardless of your maximum bandwidth. Part of Zscaler Internet Access™, Bandwidth Control lets you route traffic locally to the internet, apply flexible bandwidth management policies, and protect your users, no matter where they are.
Advanced functions like window shaping and bandwidth throttling help avoid packet dropping, providing a better user experience. And with enforcement delivered from the cloud, it eliminates bottlenecks and WAN latency while reducing costs compared to hardware-based solutions.
