Microsoft Reviews, Ratings & Features 2026 | Gartner Peer Insights

Gartner defines network security microsegmentation — also referred to as zero-trust network segmentation — as an effort that can create more granular and dynamic access policies than traditional network segmentation (often north-south traffic segmentation). It allows the insertion of a security policy between any two workloads in the same broadcast domain — with microsegmentation technologies narrowing fine-grained network zones down to individual assets and applications. Microsegmentation tools support the implementation of finer-grained zoning across public, private and hybrid cloud infrastructures. Cybersecurity leaders must understand the key features, use cases, and role of microsegmentation in their environment, as well as determine which model is the best fit for their needs.

I can say that the overall experience is very good, we are happy with how the need for segmentation was resolved by Azure and also the security for cloud environment is very needed and works well.  Managing control from one system to another works very well and all is organized and visible inside of the system's. We can easily integrate other services which helps a lot with managing everything and checking on if everything is working flawlessly.
