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.

Auto scanning and enhanced security but re-adding protections need improvement
At that time, we observed certain issues with the product. The functionalities could be improved, such as the isolation feature. If we remove our protection, we cannot easily add it back. If, in our organization, we need to remove a specific system for a particular time, we cannot add it back for security after doing so. This is one thing we have experienced. Scalability is also lacking. If we want to do the same thing repeatedly, there's not much the solution offers; it isn't very strong.

Endpoint security has improved and real-time detection and response reduce false positives
The best features CrowdStrike Falcon offers are endpoint detection and response, cloud-native lightweight agent, AI-powered threat detection, threat hunting, and Falcon Overwatch. The feature I use the most is endpoint detection and response, which you can call EDR. EDR makes the difference in this case because it provides real-time alerts for suspicious activity and full process tree visibility showing what ran, what spawned, and what is happening inside the LAN on the endpoint. It allows for quick investigation of endpoint logins and quick host isolation to stop the spread. Using CrowdStrike Falcon typically leads to faster threat detection, quicker response, and better visibility across the endpoints. This means I can understand, or an administrator can understand the logs and situation, what is happening with the endpoint, and what suspicious behaviors are occurring inside the endpoints. It has reduced false positives and has a lightweight performance impact, resulting in no heavy use or heavy scans of the agent. User productivity is also increased on the endpoint side.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Cortex is a very good total solution on the endpoints."
"It has a higher cost than other solutions, like CrowdStrike or Microsoft’s EDR tools, but it reduces the cost of our operations because it’s a new generation antivirus tool."
"Automation and playbooks have helped me significantly, as Cortex Xnor's playbooks predefine the workflow of the automation, such as response processes, alert triggering, and enriching the context, efficiently detecting and blocking malicious attacks with firewalls while eliminating workload and speeding responses for next-generation operations."
"Cortex covers everything I need. It's a perfect solution. Cortex provides a different level of visibility because it's an extended EDR, allowing you to grab logs from the network and firewalls. Palo Alto invented the concept of the extended EDR or XDR."
"Cortex XDR is stable, offering high quality and reliable performance."
"One of the main benefits of the solution is its intelligence to correlate the events into an incident."
"This software helps us understand any issues that may arise when someone is not at work."
"I've found the solution to be highly scalable for enterprises."
"The auto-scanning feature is quite beneficial."
"The auto-scanning feature is quite beneficial."
"The features I like the most are the response time and the dashboard are both excellent."
"The EDR feature of CrowdStrike is fantastic."
"I value the overall behavior analysis of CrowdStrike. The engine of this product is what drew us to this solution."
"The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon is its accuracy."
"The most beneficial part is the active response capability of the product."
"The platform is very scalable."
"Before CrowdStrike Falcon, there were 40 to 50 alerts per day with many antivirus detections and time wasted validating non-issues, but after installing the CrowdStrike Falcon agent on the endpoint, there are now 10 to 15 meaningful alerts that we can work on and isolate the system, with a 60 to 70 percent reduction in false positives and investigation time reduced from three to four hours to one to two hours, and per user from 10 to 15 minutes to around five minutes."
"The most valuable features of CrowdStrike Falcon include Falcon Fusion workflows and endpoint detection capabilities."
 

Cons

"The price could be a little lower."
"There are some limitations on the Traps agents."
"Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR does not detect malicious activity like in other anti-virus solutions like Trend Micro and Windows with Cisco."
"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."
"However, if you do not have Palo Alto in your environment, you are paying these additional services just for Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, so it is not a cost-effective solution."
"It's not an ideal choice for smaller businesses, as you need a minimum of 200 endpoints to even use the solution at all."
"It is not a suitable solution if you are looking for a single product with multiple features such as DLP, encryption, rollback, etc."
"The playbooks could be improved to include more functionalities or actions."
"Scalability is lacking. If we want to do the same thing repeatedly, there's not much the solution offers; it isn't very strong."
"The functionalities could be improved, such as the isolation feature."
"CrowdStrike should add support for ransomware protection."
"It would be nice if they did have some sort of Active Directory tie-in, whether that be Azure or on-prem. Sometimes, it is difficult for us to determine if we are missing any endpoints or servers in CrowdStrike. We honestly don't have a great inventory, but it would be nice if CrowdStrike had a way to say this is everything in your environment, Active Directory-wise, and this is what doesn't have sensors. They try to do that now with a function that they have built-in, but I have been unsuccessful in having it help us identify what needs a sensor. So, better visibility of what doesn't have a sensor in our environment would be helpful."
"I don't think anything is missing in CrowdStrike Falcon, but if they can manage their SOC solution instead of users or the end users or customers doing that, it will be very useful, just as Sophos does."
"The malware analysis could be improved, as that's what we use the solution for the most and that change would make it a better EDR tool."
"The console is a little cluttered and at times, finding what you're looking for is not intuitive."
"They offered a white glove service that was extremely costly. When we got into it, we saw it was relatively easy. If I was being nitpicky, I'd say that I don't like being sold something that's unnecessary. That's the only downside I've seen to the solution."
"When comparing to Microsoft, CrowdStrike Falcon is more expensive."
"Some of Falcon's features are a bit pricey."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We didn't have to pay any additional fee for the cloud instance. It just came with the renewal, which was nice."
"This is an expensive solution."
"It has a higher cost than other solutions, like CrowdStrike or Microsoft’s EDR tools, but it reduces the cost of our operations because it’s a new generation antivirus tool."
"The pricing seems fair, and I do like the licensing model. You use wherever they are, and it is elastic."
"I don't recall what the cost was, but it wasn't really that expensive."
"The pricing is a little bit on the expensive side."
"I feel it is fairly priced."
"The price was fine."
Information not available
"The pricing and licensing are reasonable. I don't think we are getting charged more than what it is worth. It is fair, but I do not like how it is a la carte. I realize they do that so other organizations can buy and get the agent, getting it cheaper than you could otherwise. However, if you want the main core package, which has all the main features with the exception of maybe the multi-cloud protections, that can get pricier for an organization. So, you have to pick and choose what you want. I do not care for a la carte pricing."
"Annual licensing."
"I do not have experience with the cost or licensing of the product."
"The price of CrowdStrike Falcon is reasonable."
"The price of CrowdStrike Falcon is expensive and should be reduced."
"We are at about $60,000 per year."
"CrowdStrike Falcon's price is good."
"The cost of CrowdStrike Falcon in Latin America seems high relative to the economic conditions in the region."
