Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Allot IoTSecure is bandwidth optimization."
"It is simple to use. We just need to enable features and then configure IoT policies."
"Single-pass traffic processing enables very high throughput and low latency."
"I like the Cortex Data Lake integration with security automation."
"The key strength of Palo Alto firewalls lies in their application-based approach, offering a much finer level of control compared to traditional firewalls."
"This solution has been most valuable for establishing a VPN and implementing allow/deny rules. It has also enabled us to create security policies. It is an easy solution to customise when it comes to creating templates and pulling reports."
"I like the threat information, and we can share the logging data with Cortex Data Lake."
"From a security standpoint, it provides a comprehensive range of standard security features that align with our requirements."
 

Cons

"Allot IoTSecure could improve by providing better documentation, there was not any documentation on their website."
"There can be more automation in terms of security and detection. It is already good."
"The reporting for this solution could be improved. The logs we receive are only saved for one week. We would like to have the database timeframe increased to a month or two for historical reporting as well as increased storage capabilities to support this data and reporting."
"While not overly complex, its usability could be enhanced, making it a more intuitive experience for everyone."
"The cost is still high and licensing is still complex."
"It would be beneficial to have a more centralized and user-friendly platform that could consolidate all the necessary information, which proved challenging during the initial POC phase."
"More application signatures are required."
"Essentially, this solution focuses on data analysis and cannot perform any physical actions."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is an annual subscription for the use of this solution. Additionally, there are installation costs."
"The pricing for Palo Alto Networks IoT Security is a bit high."
"While Palo Alto Networks IoT Security might cost more than some competitors, its features and effectiveness justify the price tag."
