A new report from Dell’Oro Group revealed that the global SASE market reached $2.4 billion in 3Q 2024 driven by six major vendors that hold the lion's share of the market.
The top six SASE vendors—Zscaler, Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, Broadcom, Fortinet, and Netskope—each with greater than 5% revenue share, grew their collective market share to 72%, a seven-point increase compared to 3Q 2023, according to the report. This consolidation highlights the industry’s shift toward a more mature competitive landscape as enterprises prioritize established players for integrated networking and security solutions, the report concludes.
“The SASE market is entering a new maturity phase,” said Mauricio Sanchez, Sr. Director, Enterprise Security and Networking at Dell’Oro Group. “As enterprises focus on trusted, integrated solutions during economic uncertainty, the largest vendors are capturing a growing share of investments, setting the stage for continued leadership and innovation.”
Zscaler led the pack with a 21% market share, followed by Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, Broadcom, Fortinet, and Netskope.
In the SASE market, overall market revenue rose by a single-digit year-over-year, the slowest growth rate since tracking began in 1Q 2019, Dell'Oro Group found. Despite this, the top six vendors grew at a faster double-digit pace, reflecting the consolidation trend.
And while growth is expected to strengthen in 2025 compared to 2024, it is not anticipated to reach the vigorous levels seen at the start of the pandemic. Renewed enterprise investments and expanding adoption of integrated cloud security and networking solutions are expected to drive the market forward, Dell'Oro Group's research found.
