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

"They did what they said. This solution could apply to any scenario."
"The tool is designed to scale for large enterprises and handle large volumes of data."
"It can automatically correlate events and logs, which is very helpful for an IT administrator. It can correlate different kinds of malware activities over a network, agent, or host system. You do not need to do it manually. It is a good feature. It is also a user-friendly solution. We have deployed it on the cloud because our space does not provide any flexibility for on-premises deployment, but Palo Alto has added some flexibility to install it on-premises. It must be like the same Cortex XDR agent for all the VPN services, web filtering services, and everything else."
"We've had a significant increase in blocking with a decrease in false positives, because it's looking at how the files work, not just a list of files that it's been told to look for."
"We switched because there were a lot of added features with Palo Alto that Check Point didn't have, and it was an upgrade for us."
"Stability is one of the features we like the most."
"Best solution for avoiding security breaches, malware attacks, and other kinds of security issues."
"I generally believe that Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is probably the best in the market right now."
"The installation is easy and it takes approximately a few hours. We are deploying it from a Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) tool. All you need to do is click on it and the installation is complete."
"The product offers an opportunity to monitor the things happening in our network. It also has a comprehensive dashboard."
"The fact that it is almost plug and play means the policies I have to define are not very complicated."
"The cloud console is good and the tool is effective in protection."
"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."
"The domain integrator functionality is particularly noteworthy, allowing me to leverage my existing network infrastructure."
"It takes lesser energy from the system than the rest. So, we tried it for five years, and it works quite well. So we have continued with it. And the pricing is competitive as well."
"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."
"The solution is centrally managed, easy to configure, and easy to use."
"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."
"The only thing that I have found useful is that I have an overview of my systems in the networks."
"The solution effectively detects malicious files and blocks sign-ins."
"The most valuable features are the file activity monitors, DLP solutions, and application controls."
"With Seqrite, it is completely protected, and we have full control over what is happening on the end user's laptop."
"We found the DLP to be innovative and useful."
"We were excited about the cloud-based management features of Seqrite and were looking to use the same."
 

Cons

"It is not very strong in terms of endpoint management. It should have additional features like DLP, encryption, or advanced device control. Currently, Cortex is good in terms of the security of the endpoints, but it is not as good as other vendors in terms of the management of the endpoint."
"For Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, if I had to point out improvements, I would say the UI is still somewhat difficult for beginners."
"We had a problem with getting our older endpoints up to date, but their newest updates have been really good. I've been pleased with it in terms of what our needs are. It's doing what we want it to do."
"The solution should offer more dashboards and they should be better customized."
"The onboarding process could be better."
"The solution should offer more dashboards and they should be better customized."
"The encryption is not up to the mark."
"Managing the product should be easier."
"Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security could improve the RDP, I have problems sometimes."
"The risk management tool does not have reporting, which I feel to be a huge mistake."
"There are issues with macOS or Linux, and the patch management should take care of apart from Windows, Apple and other operating systems."
"I like the Application Control feature, but it's a bit tricky. Managing it can be a bit cumbersome sometimes."
"The phishing feature report showed zero results, and the patch management component is one of the two main issues that need improvement."
"There are compatibility concerns as Bitdefender does not support Windows 7."
"At this point in time, the download footprint is a bit big."
"The security features as per customers' requirements should be improved."
"We are using Apple devices, and the advanced device control service doesn't work for M1 chips devices, like Apple MacBooks."
"The support offered by the tool is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"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."
"The product or service could be improved by incorporating SIEM integrations to enable the collection of logs."
"Endpoint Security would be improved by adding DLP."
"The stability is zero, Seqrite doesn't work, and the company doesn't accept the problems."
"Deployment of Seqrite Endpoint Security is generally straightforward. The only complexity we encounter is that, since it is cloud-based, there can be delays in updating the endpoint's status."
"We would like the solution to have integration with other security solutions so that we can have a single base for monitoring all the security incidents and concerns."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"The price is on the higher side, but it's okay."
"The pricing is a little high. It is per user per year."
"We pay about $50,000 USD per year for a bundle that includes Cortex XDR."
"Cortex XDR's pricing is ok."
"I don't like that they have different types of licenses."
"Cortex XDR’s pricing is very reasonable."
"Compared to CrowdStrike, Cortex XDR is an expensive solution."
"The tool is not expensive and pricing is competitive."
"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 licensing costs can vary."
"The price is fair."
"The general basic price is roughly $1.20 for a license with Bitdefender."
"The product's pricing is okay and it is yearly."
"The solution is reasonable and is nominally priced in accordance with the features that offer to the market."
"There are many licensing options available, we have been on monthly agreements and other volume contract agreements."
"Licensing fees are on a yearly basis. Compared to other solutions, this solution is cheaper."
"The license isn't expensive."
"I give the cost of the solution a seven out of ten."
"It is a cheaply priced product."
"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."
"The solution's pricing is good for us, where it is neither cheap nor expensive."
"We pay approximately $1,500 for licenses for the solution."
"Endpoint Security is cheaper than Trend Micro."
