ABHISHEK_SINGH - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Process Expert at A.P. Moller - Maersk
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.

Cloud-native security has improved real-time threat detection and streamlined daily operations
While CrowdStrike Falcon is strong overall, there are a few areas where it could be improved. First, the user interface can be a bit complex for new users. Sometimes, navigating through different sections and understanding detailed alerts takes time, especially for teams without deep security expertise. The cost is also something to consider, as the features and additional modules can increase pricing, which may be a challenge for smaller teams. Additionally, some integrations with simpler reporting would be helpful. The onboarding process for new users is a bit challenging for beginners to understand all features and workflows in the product. More simplified documentation, step-by-step guides, and real-world examples could help new users get comfortable faster. A structured onboarding or basic training module would be very useful for teams who are new to endpoint security tools. In addition, having more in-product guidance and tooltips within the dashboard could make navigation easier and reduce the learning curve. Overall, improving training resources and onboarding support would make the platform more user-friendly, especially for new users.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Palo Alto Networks Traps improves our security posture and lowers risk by providing next-gen methods to combat against modern threats on all the major platforms."
"If any application performs suspicious activities, such as changing registries or modifying other applications, Cortex XDR detects and blocks the entire application."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is easy to use and does not consume a lot of hardware resources."
"The solution allows control over the user and his machine through Cortex XDR security policies."
"Palo Alto is the core of the security infrastructure in the environment."
"Cortex XDR is stable, offering high quality and reliable performance."
"The protection offered by this product is good, as is the endpoint reporting."
"The scalability of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is very good."
"The auto-scanning feature is quite beneficial."
"The auto-scanning feature is quite beneficial."
"CrowdStrike Falcon's scalability is good. We have thousands of students using this solution."
"CrowdStrike's advantage is that the agent is light, so it doesn't require many resources on the machines, it's easy to install, and the results are useful to the organization."
"From what we have seen, it is very scalable. We have recently acquired a company where someone had a ransomware attack when we joined networks. Within the course of just a few days, we were able to easily get CrowdStrike rolled out to about 300 machines. That also included the removal of that company's legacy anti-malware tool."
"This solution has made the lives of the IT staff much easier, compared to the previous one."
"CrowdStrike Falcon's scalability is good. We have thousands of students using this solution."
"The key aspect of CrowdStrike Falcon is its behavioral detection approach."
"One of the most valuable features of CrowdStrike Falcon is when there are upgrades there are no additional fees."
"Cyberattack detection is very good. We use it for detecting different vulnerabilities, such as ransomware, virus, and malware. It is a good product today when compared to Symantec that we used previously."
 

Cons

"When it comes to core analysis and security analysis, Cortex needs to provide more information."
"They are charging for Network Traffic Analyzer (NTA) services, so if the per GB data could be provided at a certain level free of cost or at the same cost which the customer is taking for the entire bundle, that would be better."
"Impact on system performance is horrible, adding a lot of delays for users."
"It should support more mobile operating systems. That is one of the cons of their infrastructure right now."
"It would be better if they could educate the customers more. Some sort of seminars and roadshows will help educate the customers and show what the product can do. The price could be better. It would also help if they had a team for deployment and support."
"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 lacks real-time, on-demand antivirus."
"Currently, we are monitoring all USB drives and ports but we would like to improve our device control capabilities."
"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."
"An improvement would be to extend support to legacy and unsupported servers."
"We can do a threat analysis of any machine at any time, but that threat analysis is very limited."
"This solution is relatively expensive."
"We have had to go back to CrowdStrike, and say, "Our search are taking far too long for even one host.""
"I would like them to improve the correlation of data in the search algorithms. When we run an investigation, malware, phishing, etc., I want to look at multiple endpoints at once to correlate that data to see the likenesses, e.g., how are they not alike or what systems and processes are running across those systems? I don't want to have to run the same search in their Spotlight module five, 10, 15, or 100 times to get 100 different results, copy that data out, and then correlate it on my own. In a very simple way, I want to be able to load up a comma-delimited list giving me the spotlight data on these X amount of hosts, letting me search for it quickly. We have had to go back to CrowdStrike, and say, "Our search are taking far too long for even one host." They did bump up the cores and that did improve performance, but it is still kind of slow to get that Spotlight data. That is probably our biggest pain point. I think that needs some help. I understand this kind of information access is probably not the easiest thing to do. It is probably a big ask depending on how their back-end is setup."
"The solution could improve by providing more types of reports because it's in the detection span you cannot re-export anything."
"Whenever there is a feature release (upgrade) where we push to all the endpoints, it causes something to be blocked without us knowing."
"CrowdStrike should provide better visibility in its reporting. There should be more forensic details about detected threats."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is a little bit on the expensive side."
"It's about $55 per license on a yearly basis."
"Cortex XDR is a costly solution."
"I am using the Community edition."
"Its pricing is kind of in line with its competitors and everybody else out there."
"It has a yearly renewal."
"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."
"Cortex XDR’s pricing is very reasonable."
Information not available
"As I'm part of the technical team, not the budgeting team, I don't have information on CrowdStrike Falcon pricing."
"Years ago, when we bought CrowdStrike, you got everything it had. I was a little concerned when they broke this out into a la carte modules where you can buy EDR, Spotlight, etc., picking and choosing off the menu. I was a little worried that the solution would get watered down. However, I realized in my previous organization when we had the full suite that there were a bunch of features in it that we didn't have time to operationalize. So, I warmed up to it. I get the whole, "Look, you can pick and choose. Okay, everybody buys a steak, but do you want mashed potatoes, or do you want lobster mac and cheese?" So, you can pick the sides that you want, so you can buy the solution that you want and operationalize versus paying a lot of money and getting a bunch of things, but not using 60 percent of the tools in the box."
"The price is high in comparison to similar brands."
"I do not have experience with the cost or licensing of the product."
"The pricing on CrowdStrike is per license. It was about $42 per seat yearly."
"CrowdStrike is well priced. On a yearly basis, it costs between $60 and $100 per user."
"Different components are additional price points. We got the components that were right for us, but other organizations may require more (or less) components to suit their needs."
"Crowdstrike Falcon is relatively cheap."
