Versa Next Generation Firewall is a commercial Next-Gen firewalls solution by Versa Networks. VIRTIS is a commercial cloud web application and API protection solution by VIRTIS. Features, integrations, deployment and the company behind each one, side by side.
What our shortlists say about the one we picked.
Best for: Enterprises needing deep IoT and OT device visibility alongside NGFW
The deployment flexibility is real: cloud, virtual, and on-premises with a unified management console and zero-touch provisioning. The ZTNA capability is on-premises, which is less common than cloud-delivered ZTNA and suits organizations that need ZTNA without routing traffic through a vendor's cloud. The integration surface is broad, covering IAM, SIEM, SOAR, DLP engines, and encryption engines through native and API connections. The trade-off is that Versa is less well-known than Palo Alto, Fortinet, or Cisco, which means smaller community resources and potentially longer vendor support response times.
