Cloudflare Access has strong integration with Microsoft, among other platforms. However, when it comes to Kaspersky, we have clients who typically encounter challenges. The usual setup involves configuring a forward proxy, an IDP, and a CASB. Orchestrating these solutions can be challenging if the client already uses a VPN client such as Check Point or Mobile VPN. Clients typically do not replace their VPNs all at once; instead, they gradually phase out the old solution. The interaction between Cloudflare Access and the legacy VPN solution can be complex, particularly ensuring seamless access without introducing new restrictions. This complexity arises not from the product itself but from the nature of migrating to a new system. Migrating ten thousand employees daily is impractical, so a step-by-step approach throughout about a year is often necessary to facilitate a smoother transition.
My company has many complex applications. When there are any dynamic changes in complex applications, the tool takes a lot of time, making its analytics-related area a major matter of concern where improvements are needed. The initial setup phase of the product can be improved by taking care of the huge number of configurations required in the product.
I'm just a beginner in Cloudcare Access. So I have used their basic functionality. So, I didn't find any issue with their basic functionalities. They don't have a person to provide support for customers using the solution under their free plan. So, the aforementioned area can be considered for improvement.

For the topic of improvement, providing some training material is one of my suggestions.

It's a little difficult to implement although that has nothing to do with the product.
The pricing is an area that can be improved. Pricing, as far as I recall, was the source of our problems.
