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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Cortex is the best solution for avoiding security breaches, malware attacks, and other kinds of security issues."
"It is an easy-to-use tool."
"After deploying Traps, we saw the performance of the network improve by 65 to 70 percent."
"The solution allows control over the user and his machine through Cortex XDR security policies."
"The solution's most valuable feature is the user interface."
"Based on my experience, I would recommend Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks to other people."
"Cortex XDR features advanced threat detection capabilities."
"I recognize that Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is one of the best products in its category regarding capabilities."
"You will always have a backup copy of any policy the Bitdefender user defines."
"Since implementing Bitdefender, the traffic to the firewall has significantly reduced, and network congestion has been resolved."
"Protection is the most valuable feature."
"Based on my experience, I rate Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security a nine out of ten."
"It is very easy to configure and deploy."
"My advice to others looking into implementing Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security is that it's a cost-effective system and it's quite reliable."
"I find Bitdefender to be very light. When we were using the other versions, users would complain that they would make the computers slow. But since we have deployed Bitdefender, we haven't had that."
"I would highly recommend this solution; it is very easy to use, and it provides top-notch service, and I haven't had any issues with it."
"The two valuable features are anti-ransomware and data loss protection."
"We were excited about the cloud-based management features of Seqrite and were looking to use the same."
"The setup process was easy for our remote clients and us as well."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"The most valuable features are the file activity monitors, DLP solutions, and application controls."
"The solution's current features include antivirus, web filtering, file activity monitoring, PAM, firewall, IDS/IPS, and DLP. Though I'm not familiar with the whole solution, it is good."
"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."
"With Seqrite, it is completely protected, and we have full control over what is happening on the end user's laptop."
 

Cons

"I feel that it should not be a licensed activity because a feature should allow us to see applications running on end devices."
"On the pricing aspect, Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks needs to have a more reasonable rate, particularly for customers in Sri Lanka and Asian countries."
"When it comes to core analysis, and security analysis, Cortex needs to provide more information."
"I have run into some detection issues with Cortex XDR. It needs to be better at detection of internal attacks."
"There is a severe gap in functionality between Windows, Linux, and Mac versions. For example all folder restriction settings are Windows only. Traps 5.0+ does not have SAML / LDAP integration."
"In general, the price could be more competitive."
"The tool needs to be improved in terms of integration and interface."
"In the next release, I would like to see more UI improvements. Their UI is a bit basic. When we are speaking about Palo Alto Networks they are the big company, so they can improve the UI a little bit. The UI, the reports, the log system can all be improved."
"The security features as per customers' requirements should be improved."
"The tool needs to improve patch and vulnerability management."
"At this point in time, the download footprint is a bit big."
"The dashboard can be improved."
"To be honest, this makes me miss Panda."
"We've experienced multiple failures during appliance upgrades, sometimes requiring us to resort to backup."
"My main concern is that it's a bit heavy for some devices. Like Kaspersky or McAfee, it uses more RAM or memory. Similar to that, it causes issues for users and their own resources, similar to that. If you deploy on old legacy devices with only 1GB of RAM, then it could be a problem."
"There are issues with macOS or Linux, and the patch management should take care of apart from Windows, Apple and other operating systems."
"When we fire any employee connected remotely over the internet, we need a security feature that blocks the system and the device."
"I would like to see Seqrite add a remote profile so we can implement different policies for users connecting to the in-office LAN and those accessing the office network from home or a public internet connection."
"The solution needs to improve stability."
"User management is not that good currently, and so we have trouble with handling user management."
"The support offered by the tool is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"We are using Apple devices, and the advanced device control service doesn't work for M1 chips devices, like Apple MacBooks."
"A handbook of known issues and quick fixes should be given so that troubleshooting and frustration are less."
"The solution's integration capabilities are moderate and could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I don't like that they have different types of licenses."
"If one wishes to work with another team or large number of users at a future point, he must purchase a license for them."
"I am using the Community edition."
"It's the most expensive solution, but features-wise, it's quite strong. It's very good for protection, so the results are very good in the case of protection. I would rate it a two out of ten in terms of pricing."
"When we first bought it, it was a bit expensive, but it was worth it. The licensing was straightforward."
"Compared to CrowdStrike, Cortex XDR is an expensive solution."
"The price is on the higher side, but it's okay."
"It has a yearly renewal."
"In terms of the licensing costs associated with Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security, the agreement was made nearly three years ago, but from what I recall, the figure was around €6,000 to €7,000 for three years, including support for two hundred endpoints."
"The tool is not expensive and pricing is competitive."
"It has very flexible licensing costs, and it's modular-based."
"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."
"Its price has gone up since our last renewal. My renewal fee has gone from $517.99 in 2018 for 3 years to $739.99 when it renews this year in July. I love the product, but a price increase of over 40% is a bit exorbitant."
"The product's pricing is okay and it is yearly."
"There are many licensing options available, we have been on monthly agreements and other volume contract agreements."
"The license is yearly."
"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 get the tool for around 1200 rupees for a three-year subscription. I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
"It is a cheaply priced product."
"I give the cost of the solution a seven out of ten."
"Though I don't think that this is a cheaply priced product, I feel that it is an affordable solution."
"The licensing fee is 200 Bangladeshi Taka per client per year."
"As per the suggestions from one of the experts we know, it is advisable to make a proper comparison with the local vendors instead of solely relying on online prices, which are often higher and quite expensive."
