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

"My advice for others looking into using Cortex is that it is very easy to use and very useful for the customer environment, whether it's a public or private one."

"The initial setup is pretty easy."

"Cortex is the best tool for endpoint detection, with playbooks that automate and gather endpoint logs, block malicious processes, and update incident tickets, showcasing end-to-end processes with automation in investigation and reducing the analysis workflow."

"WildFire AI is the best option for this product."

"The information the dashboard provides is very clear."

"Cortex Xnor's playbooks predefine the workflow of the automation, such as response processes, alert triggering, and enriching the context, collecting relevant indicators such as hashes, IP addresses, or domains efficiently and can detect and block malicious attacks with firewalls."

"We can use Cortex XDR to get the entire graph of the incidents from source to destination, and we can take remedial action."

"It is easy to use."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security has a lot of telemetry that allows me to really see what's going on with the device."

"The domain integrator functionality is particularly noteworthy, allowing me to leverage my existing network infrastructure."

"The solution is very scalable."

"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."

"It is very easy to configure and deploy."

"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."

"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."

"Protection is the most valuable feature."

More Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security pros

"I haven't observed any of the instabilities in the solution. It is a stable solution."

"The initial setup was straightforward. It took five minutes. I installed the solution myself."

"The Webroot cloud console is very powerful."

"It is very lightweight on the workstations, not slowing them down while still doing its job very well."

"There aren't any features that really stand out — I just want it to keep malware out of my system. To date, I haven't had any malware in my system."

"It is very light. It is the only solution that can be installed on a machine that already has an antivirus. It is a pretty complete solution."

"Probably, compared to other antivirus programs, what we like about it is it is lightweight."

"It is pretty unintrusive. It doesn't take over the system like McAfee or Norton. It doesn't use a whole lot of resources. McAfee and Norton use a lot of resources."

More OpenText Core Endpoint Protection pros

Cons

"Data privacy is a matter of concern. You have to be careful with data privacy, it can be sensitive and Cortex can have most of your access."

"The solution should add unwanted malicious hash values to a block list so that whenever the action is triggered, it will automatically prevent the malicious content."

"Cortex XDR could improve its sales support team, including better commission structures and referral programs."

"It takes time to scan the servers and devices."

"In an upcoming release, the solution could improve by proving hard disk encryption. If it could support this it would be a complete solution."

"Initially, we got to have a lot of false positives when we onboarded, but nowadays it's quite smooth."

"Product might have some bugs."

"It automatically detects security issues. It should be able to protect our network devices while operating autonomously."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"I like the Application Control feature, but it's a bit tricky. Managing it can be a bit cumbersome sometimes."

"The lack of detecting security threats and high memory usage need to be improved."

"The live monitoring service from Bitdefender's center is expensive and has room for improvement."

"The connection with the controller needs improvement. Some connections are currently unstable."

"The security features as per customers' requirements should be improved."

"The tool needs to improve patch and vulnerability management."

"Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security could improve the RDP, I have problems sometimes."

"Potential areas for improvement could be more accessible and immediate support for critical situations, especially considering the regulatory challenges in healthcare."

More Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security cons

"It would be great if there was a feature which would allow you to scan an individual file on an endpoint user's computer."

"I'm not happy with Webroot Business Endpoint Protection, for only one reason. It seems that it slows down my interface when I'm doing programming in Microsoft Access, tremendously."

"I did notice that my OS slowed down, but I don't know if that's due to Webroot."

"We need more control over when upgrades to the app are rolled out."

"Webroot is very reactionary. It waits until the threat is active within memory to try and detect it. They need better pre-execution detection and prevention."

"The reporting is the weakest part of the Webroot console. Frequently, I export to Excel to massage something into it to pass on to others."

"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection needs to improve its ability to detect threats."

"Its detection capability for certain attacks should be improved. It should have better and wider detection for certain malware attacks. It could also have some sort of RMN."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is a little bit on the expensive side."

"Compared to CrowdStrike, Cortex XDR is an expensive solution."

"The tool's price is moderate."

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is an expensive solution."

"I feel it is fairly priced."

"I don't have any issues with the pricing. We are satisfied with the price."

"When we first bought it, it was a bit expensive, but it was worth it. The licensing was straightforward."

"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."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pricing and cost advice

"The solution is reasonable and is nominally priced in accordance with the features that offer to the market."

"The product's pricing is okay and it is yearly."

"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."

"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."

"Good in terms of pricing and flexibility."

"You don't have to pay extra after buying the product."

"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."

More Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security pricing and cost advice

"The solution is pretty cheap, actually. At our level, which is at 2,500 endpoints, we're paying 87 cents an agent per month."

"The solution is very cost-effective."

"The pricing is high."

"I rate the product's pricing a three on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive. There are no costs in addition to the product's standard licensing fees."

"Our strategy was to overestimate the complexity and cost. It turned out that Webroot's assurance was justified."

"Get a trial, then a multi-year license."

"Webroot is less expensive than SentinelOne."

"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is not too expensive. My licenses cost me between $300 and $400. It is really good price wise."
