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

"Everything is organized straightforwardly; all the incidents are clearly described and everything you need is essentially in one menu and one UI interface, which is quite beneficial for me and also for the customer."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks has helped us a lot with securing the whole environment and the whole IT structure, giving us full knowledge of what is happening on the client and enabling us to take action right away from a single point for managing security operations on the hosts."
"The tool is easy to use."
"If the user leaves our premises or network, Palo Alto Traps will still be on that endpoint and will still apply our policies."
"It detected stuff that other things wouldn't detect."
"Cortex is a very good total solution on the endpoints."
"The stability is pretty good except for one or two cases, and based on the performance, it's been okay with pretty high performance, no bugs or glitches, and it doesn't crash or freeze."
"The solution's most valuable feature is the user interface."
"I like its unified interface, which also helps you scan Outlook email, for example. Multiple products can be standardized across endpoints or the EDR solution, and the integrations with SIEMs."
"What I appreciate most about Bitdefender are its web content filtering, blocking malicious sites, and its ability to thwart brute force attacks on open ports."
"Virus scan and the ability to remotely install are valuable features. Being able to manage everything in one place and set different policies and rules for different computer types are very useful features. It also has ransomware protection. It is very simple to use, and it is very effective."
"The domain integrator functionality is particularly noteworthy, allowing me to leverage my existing network infrastructure."
"The product provides a single dashboard."
"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."
"When it comes to the web, according to our customers, this product stands out due to its superior performance compared to others."
"The solution is very scalable."
"The most valuable part of the solution is its ransomware backup feature."
"With Seqrite, it is completely protected, and we have full control over what is happening on the end user's laptop."
"There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"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 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."
"The solution effectively detects malicious files and blocks sign-ins."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security is a good solution."
 

Cons

"It's more focused on network communication. If a customer wants to increase the level of protection and start working with documents, it's impossible to integrate these features into the system. It's more of a communication-oriented system than a content security-oriented system."
"The solution should force customers to integrate with network traffic to see the full benefits of XDR."
"The product's pricing could be better."
"Dashboards do not allow everyone to see what's happening."
"Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR does not detect malicious activity like in other anti-virus solutions like Trend Micro and Windows with Cisco."
"The main issue I could point out is the offline agents and the way that it is missing."
"The dashboard is the area that needs to improve so that we can have the ability to drill down without having to go elsewhere to verify results."
"Although I would say this product is highly-rated, it could probably do more because nothing does everything that you want."
"The risk management tool does not have reporting, which I feel to be a huge mistake."
"Sometimes the response from Technical Support takes more time than usual because level three support is not in Brazil."
"I love the product, but a price increase of over 40% is a bit exorbitant."
"The price has increased marginally recently and I would prefer if they didn't raise rates."
"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 connection with the controller needs improvement. Some connections are currently unstable."
"The firewall capabilities could benefit from an upgrade since it lacks a high level of granularity and control."
"Machines with low memory and CPU may experience slow performance."
"The product or service could be improved by incorporating SIEM integrations to enable the collection of logs."
"The pricing could be a bit lower."
"The solution could improve by providing better security and a cloud base version."
"The interface is slow."
"The solution needs to improve stability."
"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."
"When we fire any employee connected remotely over the internet, we need a security feature that blocks the system and the device."
"A handbook of known issues and quick fixes should be given so that troubleshooting and frustration are less."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Compared to CrowdStrike, Cortex XDR is an expensive solution."
"Traps pays for itself within the first 16 months of a three-year subscription. This is attributed to OPEX savings, as security teams spent less time trying to identify and isolate malware for analysis as a result of a reduction in malware incidents, false positives, and breach avoidance."
"Every customer has to pay for a license because it doesn't work with what you get from a managed services provider."
"Licensing for Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR can be costly, especially when it comes to a hundred users. A license is required for each user, and the subscription must be renewed on a yearly basis."
"This is an expensive solution."
"This is an expensive solution."
"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."
"The solution has one subscription for endpoint protection and one subscription for detection and response. The two licenses combined give you the BRO version."
"There are many licensing options available, we have been on monthly agreements and other volume contract agreements."
"The tool is not expensive and pricing is competitive."
"You don't have to pay extra after buying the product."
"The general basic price is roughly $1.20 for a license with Bitdefender."
"The solution is reasonable and is nominally priced in accordance with the features that offer to the market."
"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."
"It has very flexible licensing costs, and it's modular-based."
"The product's pricing is okay and it is yearly."
"The solution's pricing is good for us, where it is neither cheap nor expensive."
"Licensing fees are on a yearly basis. Compared to other solutions, this solution is cheaper."
"The solution has reasonable pricing. There is one pricing without any hidden charges. They have to pay once a year or three years."
"We pay approximately $1,500 for licenses for the solution."
"You need to pay for a yearly license for Seqrite Endpoint Security, which is expensive."
"There is no option to refund the money and unfortunately, we bought a three-year license, seeing that Quick Heal is a long-established player in the market."
"The licensing fee is 200 Bangladeshi Taka per client per year."
"I give the cost of the solution a seven out of ten."
