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.

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

"The most valuable features are the fact that it was running in the background and it would intercept any weird stuff, and the fact that it would send things directly to the cloud for sandboxing. It's quite practical."
"Cortex XDR alerts us on the dashboard when there's a threat, which allows us to restrict that user and helps secure our infrastructure."
"The stability of this product is very good."
"It has absolutely improved the way our organization functions, we are more secure, it is giving us more peace of mind, and it has found malicious activity happening on our endpoints that probably would not have been detected if we didn't have it."
"One of the main benefits of the solution is its intelligence to correlate the events into an incident."
"We have found in our test Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks to be a very good tool."
"The protection offered by this product is good, as is the endpoint reporting."
"We think that this product will help us grow, as it meets our needs currently and we can grow with it over time."
"The solution fits well in the organization and took out valuable output as expected from Endpoint Detection and Response solution."
"The feature that I find to be the most valuable, is being able to look at the system analysis and being able to baseline what is installed on the system."
"At this point what is most valuable is the interface, which is easy to navigate."
"The most valuable feature is the activity dashboard because it gives you a holistic view of your environment from a security standpoint."
"I like its detection capabilities, number one."
"CrowdStrike provides a lot of visibility in their tool."
"We have signed up for Falcon Complete, which is their completely managed service, and this has done nothing but paid dividends since we have rolled it out."
"My advice to others is this is a good solution that does not require a lot of attention."
"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."
"The most valuable features are the file activity monitors, DLP solutions, and application controls."
"The solution is centrally managed, easy to configure, and easy to use."
"The convenience has been great."
"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."
"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 update process and policy control are good."
"The solution effectively detects malicious files and blocks sign-ins."
 

Cons

"The technical support is not very good. I find the process difficult."
"There are a large number of false positives."
"There is a severe gap in functionality between Windows, Linux, and Mac versions."
"The price could be a little lower."
"The downsides of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks are that in many incidents, when I enter the causality chain, there are numerous logs."
"The product's pricing needs improvement. They could provide more discounts. Additionally, the dashboard and control panel could be enhanced."
"Cortex XDR could be improved with more GUI features."
"Technology evolves every day, so it would be nice if it gets more secure. It can also have more integration with other platforms."
"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."
"On the firewall management side, there should be more granularity. There should also be more granularity for device control."
"The management of the solution could improve."
"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."
"A year and a half ago or more, if you put in a support request by email, then it wasn't timely addressed. It could be a day to three days before you received a response, which was a bit frustrating. There was a lot of customer feedback around this issue, which has been greatly refined."
"The management reporting functionality needs to be improved."
"This solution is relatively expensive."
"The solution needs to improve stability."
"The solution's integration capabilities are moderate and could be improved."
"The stability is zero, Seqrite doesn't work, and the company doesn't accept the problems."
"The solution could integrate with other products to provide a comprehensive protection strategy."
"User management is not that good currently, and so we have trouble with handling user management."
"The product or service could be improved by incorporating SIEM integrations to enable the collection of logs."
"I don't feel that the scalability part of Seqrite Endpoint Security is better than the other products in the market."
"The interface is slow."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I don't like that they have different types of licenses."
"The price is on the higher side, but it's okay."
"The pricing is okay, although direct support can be expensive."
"I feel it is fairly priced."
"Cortex XDR is a costly solution."
"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."
"Traps pays for itself within the first 16 months of a three-year subscription. This is attributed to OPEX savings, as security teams spent less time trying to identify and isolate malware for analysis as a result of a reduction in malware incidents, false positives, and breach avoidance."
"There are approximately a hundred different modules you have to purchase, depending on what you want to do. I have most of the modules. How it works is you buy the portfolio, you have to decide all the components you want in it, and then they price out a bundle for you. I have almost all of the package features in my bundle. You only need to pay for the modules you want."
"Annual licensing."
"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 can be more expensive than some competitors, and its base price doesn't cover every feature."
"The pricing is definitely high but you get what you pay for, and it's not so high that it prices itself out of the market."
"There is no license required to use this solution."
"I would like them to further reduce the price, because it is quite pricey at the moment."
"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."
"The licensing fee is 200 Bangladeshi Taka per client per year."
"We pay approximately $1,500 for licenses for the solution."
"Endpoint Security is cheaper than Trend Micro."
"It is a cheaply priced product."
"The solution has reasonable pricing. There is one pricing without any hidden charges. They have to pay once a year or three years."
"My company needs to purchase a yearly subscription for the licensing costs for Seqrite Endpoint Security."
"Though I don't think that this is a cheaply priced product, I feel that it is an affordable solution."
"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."
