Gained full visibility and streamlined threat detection through behavior-based insights and AI integration
Initially, we got to have a lot of false positives when we onboarded, but nowadays it's quite smooth. We have fine-tuned our security policies and allowed different levels of policies to get rid of those false positives. Currently, we are getting a fairly good amount of incidents that are not false positives or benign, but actionable items. The process is streamlined. In the initial days, the operations used to get involved in a lot of benign and other activities, but now the process is streamlined. We are leveraging the auto-detection and remediation plans. The operations teams are now more involved in other business roles as well, not just looking into the logs and fetching out what's happening there. They have fixed a lot of things. Initially, they didn't have IAC code drift detection, cloud posture management, or security posture management, but they have those now. They purchased different vendors and did a merger with that. They have now Prisma Cloud that gets integrated and now they are working with Cortex Cloud. Everything that was negative has now been addressed, and the product altogether looks to be in a very better and mature shape now. Currently, it's more or less detecting the workloads with AI-based best practices. Since most organizations are consuming AI agents and other things, we are looking forward to seeing what other feature enhancements Palo Alto can support in that.

Delivers lightweight protection while facing challenges with technical aspects
I have been working with Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security for quite a long time, but recently, I do not appreciate their changes, especially on the technical side. They moved some portions to remote GUI-based interfaces. The Command Line Interface (CLI) is not improving. Even experienced personnel are finding it difficult. There is a power user function where you can stop it temporarily for installing applications. Previously, we had the option to click on the power user button and enter the password to allow stopping that particular function. Now, we have to do it via CLI, which even technical personnel struggle to understand. Currently, everything is working fine except for the technical aspects we can control. If they can revert to the old system, that would be much better. When we raise this issue with Bitdefender, they cite security reasons for the change. However, while Cisco is moving away from CLI to GUI, Bitdefender is moving backward. Normal users cannot handle these CLI operations effectively.

With DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities, the solution also offers great technical support
The most valuable features of the solution are DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities. It is a lightweight solution with good features, allowing for application control. The solution also offers good DLP features, and our company recently upgraded to use its XDR features. The solution's XDR features work smoothly in our company. With the lightweight nature of the solution and its features, my team was required to deploy the solution in our company. Our company also receives good support from Seqrite, which was one of the main reasons we chose the solution since we could get help if we faced any issues with the solution.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We think that this product will help us grow, as it meets our needs currently and we can grow with it over time."
"I recognize that Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is one of the best products in its category regarding capabilities."
"The initial setup is easy."
"Palo Alto Networks Traps improves our security posture and lowers risk by providing next-gen methods to combat against modern threats on all the major platforms."
"We have found in our test Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks to be a very good tool."
"Once you become familiar with it, Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is a more powerful tool and I would say that I prefer it over MDE because it is a stronger tool for me."
"It's very stable. I've never experienced downtime for the ASM console or ASM core."
"It's a nice product that's stable and scalable."
"It is very easy to configure and deploy."
"Protection is the most valuable feature."
"The features I found most valuable in Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security include anti-malware, spyware detection, firewall, network detection, and user behavior analytics. The solution also gives you a heads-up about operating system misconfiguration."
"In terms of threat detection, I would give it a ten out of ten since Bitdefender manages to catch threats that other products miss."
"Based on my experience, I rate Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security a nine out of ten."
"You will always have a backup copy of any policy the Bitdefender user defines."
"When it comes to the web, according to our customers, this product stands out due to its superior performance compared to others."
"They are the leader and have a major market share with this kind of security, the cloud console is good and the tool has effective protection, and we do not have problems with malware."
"In case it works, we are looking to use features like USB blocking, file upload alerts, and other antivirus features as well, but this software has to work first."
"There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security is a good solution."
"The most valuable feature is its endpoint protection, particularly the antivirus component. It has been very effective in protecting our clients, and since its installation, we haven't encountered any issues with compromised endpoints or virus impacts."
"The overall performance of the server and the dashboard are the most interesting aspects of the solution."
"The most valuable part of the solution is its ransomware backup feature."
"I like Seqrite's web protection features and external device control."
"The solution effectively detects malicious files and blocks sign-ins."
 

Cons

"The solution lags to the real-time scenarios here and there."
"Dashboards do not allow everyone to see what's happening."
"I have run into some detection issues with Cortex XDR. It needs to be better at detection of internal attacks."
"It's very time-consuming to log support issues and the people that answer the tickets aren't very knowledgeable."
"It would be better if they could educate the customers more. Some sort of seminars and roadshows will help educate the customers and show what the product can do. The price could be better. It would also help if they had a team for deployment and support."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks can improve mobile integration to allow access to the console."
"It would be good to have a better way to search for a file within the UI."
"In an upcoming release, the solution could improve by proving hard disk encryption. If it could support this it would be a complete solution."
"The price has increased marginally recently and I would prefer if they didn't raise rates."
"I love the product, but a price increase of over 40% is a bit exorbitant."
"It could be simplified a little bit for firewall rules and blocking specific IP addresses. It would be nice to have an option to upload a CSV or XLSX file of IP addresses to be blacklisted or to be able to specify a range as attempted logins from botnets and people attempting to access network accounts is an increasing issue across the board."
"The solution must be more user-friendly."
"The risk management tool does not have reporting, which I feel to be a huge mistake."
"The phishing feature report showed zero results, and the patch management component is one of the two main issues that need improvement."
"There are issues with macOS or Linux, and the patch management should take care of apart from Windows, Apple and other operating systems."
"My advice to others is not to implement this solution. There are better solutions in the market."
"The interface is slow."
"Sometimes, small and medium businesses, or even startups with just five, ten, or fifteen systems, are also keen to secure their data. There is a reluctance on the part of the technical team to extend installation support when the opportunity sizes are smaller. Seqrite Endpoint Security has a lot of value. Still, its marketing could be done much better on a larger scale, especially in India, in light of the new DPDP 2023 Act, which the Indian Parliament passed. It would be even more valuable if Seqrite could incorporate features to help companies comply with this law, it would be even more helpful."
"User management is not that good currently, and so we have trouble with handling user management."
"The stability is zero, Seqrite doesn't work, and the company doesn't accept the problems."
"In the next version, they should improve the areas of utility and centralized control."
"A handbook of known issues and quick fixes should be given so that troubleshooting and frustration are less."
"Endpoint Security would be improved by adding DLP."
"The solution could improve by providing better security and a cloud base version."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I feel it is fairly priced."
"We pay about $50,000 USD per year for a bundle that includes Cortex XDR."
"I am using the Community edition."
"Cortex XDR’s pricing is very reasonable."
"I did PoCs on products called Cylance and CrowdStrike. Although, I consider these products and they were also good, when it come to cost and budgetary factors, Traps has been proven to be better than the other two products. It is quite cost-effective and delivers all the entire solution which we require."
"The price of the solution could be reduced. I have customers that have voiced that the solution is good for the value but if I want to sell more of the solution the price reduction would help."
"In terms of the cost Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is very expensive because we are a Mexican company and when you translate dollars to pesos the cost is very high. The solution is very expensive for Mexican companies. I understand that they have international prices, but I do not think it offsets the price enough for many companies in countries, such as Mexico. The amount it is reduced is not a massive percentage."
"I don't have any issues with the pricing. We are satisfied with the price."
"In India, licensing is based on annual contracts. It's not extremely expensive, but not the cheapest either. I'd rate it somewhere around seven or eight out of ten."
"The licensing costs can vary."
"We purchase the solution for three or five-year intervals. We paid approximately $150 for 10 to 15 users."
"We pay for an annual license which is affordable."
"The tool is not expensive and pricing is competitive."
"The pricing is reasonable when I compare it to other security solutions, particularly Kaspersky, it stands out. It offers an excellent solution at a more favorable price point."
"The price is fair."
"You don't have to pay extra after buying the product."
"The solution has reasonable pricing. There is one pricing without any hidden charges. They have to pay once a year or three years."
"Licensing fees are on a yearly basis. Compared to other solutions, this solution is cheaper."
"We pay approximately $1,500 for licenses for the solution."
"Though I don't think that this is a cheaply priced product, I feel that it is an affordable solution."
"The license isn't expensive."
"It is a cheaply priced product."
"The solution's pricing is good for us, where it is neither cheap nor expensive."
"Endpoint Security is cheaper than Trend Micro."
