How do you position yourself against your competitors?

Zilla’s identity governance platform offers unparalleled visibility into permissions across cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, and GCP), SaaS applications, and on-prem systems. With Zilla Universal Sync, organizations can ingest their data from any application without security API support or file export capabilities.

Zilla's simple and intuitive user interface makes running automated access reviews for regulations like SOX, HIPAA, GLBA, NYDFS, FFIEC, and SOC2 a breeze.

Zilla's security module detects and remediates a wide range of identity and access threats - from discovering and remediating AWS resources that are misconfigured to identifying SaaS and cloud permissions that are too excessive or unused.

What do you like best about Zilla Security?

The platform is relatively intuitive and works as demonstrated. Our system owners even like it and have been complying with their review tasks. Implementation-wise, it was the easiest implementation I have ever participated in. Customer support is excellent too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zilla Security?

Needs more integrations (they offered integrations for around 70% of our platforms). Some of our legacy platforms were annoying to get the data from. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zilla Security solving and how is that benefiting you?

Zilla helps us with role-based access control. It allows us to identify systems in which there are unexpected privileged accounts, and to ensure that provisioning and de-provisioning occurs in a timely fashion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zilla Security?

Upkeep and data sanitation can be tedious. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zilla Security solving and how is that benefiting you?

Primarily user access reviews. Zilla quickly allowed us to automate the process in a few key areas, such as data collection and automating portions of the review itself, significantly reducing the time our stakeholders require to complete reviews. The out-of-the-box integrations are simple and easy to configure, and Zilla offers excellent tools for data collection if API syncs are unavailable for a specific system.

Nothing! Zilla Security works great for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Zilla offers invaluable audit and compliance reports, furnishing irrefutable evidence to uphold our regulatory obligations.

What do you like best about Zilla Security?

My favorite aspect of Zilla security is that it is a centralized location for all Vail Health users and the applications that they use. Before Zilla my organization had no way of auditing who had access to certain applications that are not tied to okta/AD. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zilla Security?

I dislike the fact that some processes in Zilla are manual. For example the mapping of users and integrating applications that are not capable of using the ZUS extension. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zilla Security solving and how is that benefiting you?

Zilla is helping me with access reviews. Before Zilla we never had a process for reviewing access to applications that are not tied to okta/AD. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zilla Security?

Zilla allows me to quickly provide leadership the tools to approve the access of many financial systems users. It also confirms that they have enabled Active Directory accounts on the network.

What do you like best about Zilla Security?

Zilla Security is easy to use; they have fast and efficient customer services. The implementations are quick and integrations are seamless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zilla Security?

Zilla has limitations relating to application reviews, which makes it difficult to manage our admin/user account environment. We also cannot simultaneously review admin users and inactive users t the same time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zilla Security solving and how is that benefiting you?

User provision and access governance tolls streamline our processes of managing user access across our organization. This is helpful relating to auditing onboarding and offboarding processes. We also like that we can review appropriate access levels and ensure least privilege. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zilla Security?

Zilla provides several things that we really need and don't otherwise have:

1. A view into what users are in what tools/systems without having to have everyone be an admin in those systems directly

2. A view into what permissions each user has and a way to audit those

3. A great view for offboarding employees when they leave -- it helps IT track down accounts they may not otherwise know about.

4. Zilla Universal Sync is easy to use and intuitive for discovering and auditing users in apps that aren't supported natively in Zilla.

It has improved our overall security posture. Many of our users and admins are very excited about its capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zilla Security?

Using Zilla requires some order:

1. Zilla can't track what it doesn't know about. In our (small) organization, departments often have their own separate accounts/relationships that aren't centralized. Finding and putting all of these in Zilla takes significant time, due to our own unorganized nature

2. If you aren't regularly running audits, Zilla won't fix your security problems for you. This, again, is more of an organization issue than a Zilla issue. It does mean more work on our end, but it's work we should already be doing and Zilla makes it much easier! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zilla Security solving and how is that benefiting you?

Zilla is overall solving two big problems for us:

1. Who has what accounts and where

2. What permissions do they have, and can we reduce/change those

It benefits us greatly when we remove outdated accounts that are no longer needed, and removing unneeded permissions greatly helps us reduce our risk profile. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Robin Stone of Zilla Security

Thank you for sharing your positive experience with Zilla Security! We're glad to hear that our tool has been able to provide the features you need, such as user visibility, permissions auditing, and offboarding support. We appreciate your feedback and are thrilled that it has improved your overall security posture.
