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.

Provides effective real-time threat detection with potential for cost optimization
Some features such as device control, firewall management, and file analysis are standalone products that we need to purchase separately. If these features came out of the box within the product, it would be much more beneficial for us. Other providers such as SentinelOne include these features in their base product. We attended a CrowdStrike Falcon event where they discussed some shallow AI features, but we cannot see these in our panel yet. We work with different solutions such as Darktrace and SocRadar, where AI features are automatically displayed in our dashboards after release. However, for CrowdStrike Falcon, we cannot see these features.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features of this product are the management capabilities, which allow an IT organization to get quite a good picture of attempted cyber attacks, and its out-of-the-box investigation capabilities."
"The most valuable for us is the correlation feature."
"It blocks malicious files, prevents attacks, and doesn't require many updates because it is a very light application."
"The multi-layered approach to the product gives you confidence that it will stop exploits, ransomware, worms, or viruses from compromising endpoints, essentially providing peace of mind."
"Stability is one of the features we like the most."
"Traps has drastically reduced our endpoint attack surface via advanced detection capabilities, sandboxing of never before seen programs, and by drastically limiting where executables can launch in the first place."
"I like the centralized console and the predictive analysis it does of malware. It is very stable and also scalable."
"These days it's machine-learning technology and behavior-based analytics features that make us more secure."
"Falcon has the capacity to identify potential problems quickly. The administrator can deploy the agent, and the users cannot change it. This assures you that the agent remains on this device. Also, the agent can act preemptively to provide alerts about potential problems."
"The most useful feature is that we do not need to install or keep signature files. Regular scanning that consumes a lot of computer resources is not needed."
"We receive good ROI when using this solution."
"The endpoint and server management are the most valuable features of CrowdStrike Falcon."
"I like the vulnerability assessment and proactive hunting features of CrowdStrike Falcon."
"We are happy with CloudStrike's ease of use and touch notification."
"My advice to others is this is a good solution that does not require a lot of attention."
"It's given me a level of confidence that my network is secure."
"The solution is centrally managed, easy to configure, and easy to use."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security is a good solution."
"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."
"Endpoint Security's best features are inventory, asset management, and quick scanning."
"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 only thing that I have found useful is that I have an overview of my systems in the networks."
"The solution is stable."
"The convenience has been great."
 

Cons

"We have found that there are times Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks does not detect some of the viruses, we have to use another protection solution called Kaspersky."
"It would be good to have a better way to search for a file within the UI."
"The MAC agent is not as robust feature-wise as the PC version."
"There are some third-party solutions that are difficult to integrate with, which is something that can be improved."
"The encryption is not up to the mark."
"It would be good if they could make an exception for applications. Sometimes, it can be a bit of a challenge to make exceptions for certain applications that have been used as rogue."
"Basically, they don't provide customer support tools just to investigate the logs."
"The onboarding process could be better."
"The detection time has room for improvement."
"The price of CrowdStrike Falcon is expensive."
"I have worked with their technical support on several problems that were never fully resolved."
"CrowdStrike Falcon could improve the EDR functionality. Once the functionality of the solution improves, it will be even better in the market and able to compete with Carbon Black."
"As the company has grown, the technical support has felt less personal."
"The technical support team often just replies to an issue with a link to an article rather than actually calling back and talking to someone and making sure the problem is solved. To me, that's kind of weak."
"Any kind of integration that you want to do, such as using the API to connect to a SIEM, is complex and it will be expensive to do."
"They need to strengthen the forensic capabilities of this product, for e-discovery."
"The solution could integrate with other products to provide a comprehensive protection strategy."
"The solution could improve by providing better security and a cloud base version."
"I don't feel that the scalability part of Seqrite Endpoint Security is better than the other products in the market."
"The solution's integration capabilities are moderate and could be improved."
"The support offered by the tool is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"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."
"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 it comes to the support provided by the product, I see that Seqrite is not as mature as the other products in the market."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We pay about $50,000 USD per year for a bundle that includes Cortex XDR."
"I don't like that they have different types of licenses."
"It is cost-effective compared to similar solutions. It fits for the small businesses through to the big businesses."
"I don't recall what the cost was, but it wasn't really that expensive."
"This is an expensive solution."
"Cortex XDR's pricing is ok."
"It's the most expensive solution, but features-wise, it's quite strong. It's very good for protection, so the results are very good in the case of protection. I would rate it a two out of ten in terms of pricing."
"The tool's price is moderate."
"We pay between $30-50 per user for a yearly license, which is more expensive than SentinelOne or Bitdefender. However, CrowdStrike gives better value for money."

"This solution offers annual subscriptions. The pricing for this solution could be reduced."

"The pricing is reasonable."
"Though I don't think that this is a cheaply priced product, I feel that it is an affordable solution."
"The solution's pricing is good for us, where it is neither cheap nor expensive."
