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

"It's very stable. I've never experienced downtime for the ASM console or ASM core."
"Its interface and pricing are most valuable. It is better than other vendors in terms of security."
"The most valuable for us is the correlation feature."
"It blocks malicious files. It prevents attacks. It doesn't require many updates, it's a very light application."
"The normal protection was really effective, and we detected situations that if we didn't have Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, it's highly likely that we would have been affected, but it protected the infrastructure."
"The most valuable feature of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is its machine-learning capabilities. Additionally, there is full integration with other solutions."
"Has great threat detection capabilities."
"The interface is easy to use and it is more up to date than our previous solution."
"One of the most valuable features of CrowdStrike Falcon is when there are upgrades there are no additional fees."
"I like the overall reports of this solution. They are crisp, and to the point."
"CrowdStrike Falcon's most valuable feature is the fact that it's not getting in the way of our workforce and their workflow."
"I like Falcon's threat detection and endpoint investigation features. It's a user-friendly solution."
"The platform is very scalable."
"CrowdStrike Falcon offers a comprehensive dashboard that is highly effective in protecting against and blocking external infiltration attempts."
"The most beneficial part is the active response capability of the product."
"I like the dashboard nature of it. Everything is clickable, linkable, and information is easy to obtain and find. How it presents that information is probably the biggest win as far as the information correlation aspect. The presentation of it is very good."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"The two valuable features are anti-ransomware and data loss protection."
"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 most valuable part of the solution is its ransomware backup feature."
"The setup process was easy for our remote clients and us as well."
"The convenience has been great."
"Endpoint Security's best features are inventory, asset management, and quick scanning."
"The most valuable features are the file activity monitors, DLP solutions, and application controls."
 

Cons

"The main issue I could point out is the offline agents and the way that it is missing."
"Limited remote connection."
"The solution needs better reports. I think they should let the customer go in and customize the reports."
"A little bit more automation would be nice."
"I would like to see improvement in the tool's user interface, particularly in the area of managing alerts and providing more reporting capabilities."
"The solution can never really be an on-premises solution based simply on the way it is set up. It needs metadata to run and improve. Having an on-premises solution would cut it off from making improvements."
"Previously, the endpoint would leave the environment, not being on our VPN, essentially unable to interact with the server to upload files. It was unable to retrieve new file verdicts. It was using a thing called "local analysis" to determine if something was a malicious file or not. There was no dynamic analysis."
"In reporting they should have a customizable dashboard due to the fact that C-level people don't like reporting to the IT department. They prefer to have a real-time dashboard. That kind of dashboard needs to have various customizations."
"I believe nothing can be done to make CrowdStrike Falcon a ten out of ten, as I think it's one of the best solutions in the market. However, rating it a ten overall would imply there's no scope for improvement, but to survive in the market, changes must be made every day."
"The management of log aggregation is in need of improvement."
"The solution isn't known in my market. The brand isn't as recognizable. Their shortcomings are more on the marketing side."
"In a future release, I would like to see more integrations for data breaches and security features."
"The portal can be clunky to navigate at times and has room for improvement."
"I would also like to see the endpoint firewall component produce some level of logging and feedback."
"We'd like to see more integration capabilities."
"CrowdStrike Falcon could improve the logs by making them free to the API."
"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."
"The interface is slow."
"The product or service could be improved by incorporating SIEM integrations to enable the collection of logs."
"The solution needs to improve stability."
"Endpoint Security would be improved by adding DLP."
"The solution could integrate with other products to provide a comprehensive protection strategy."
"The pricing could be a bit lower."
"In the next version, they should improve the areas of utility and centralized control."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"When we first bought it, it was a bit expensive, but it was worth it. The licensing was straightforward."
"The solution is expensive. It's pricing is on a yearly-basis."
"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."
"In terms of the cost Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is very expensive because we are a Mexican company and when you translate dollars to pesos the cost is very high. The solution is very expensive for Mexican companies. I understand that they have international prices, but I do not think it offsets the price enough for many companies in countries, such as Mexico. The amount it is reduced is not a massive percentage."
"This is an expensive solution."
"The pricing is okay, although direct support can be expensive."
"The price of the solution is high for the license and in general."
"I am using the Community edition."
"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."
"The pricing is good and there are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
"When comparing to Microsoft, CrowdStrike Falcon is more expensive."
"Our company pays approximately US$ 65,000 annually for 900 machines."
"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."
"The product is expensive."
"It is an expensive product, but I think it is well worth the investment."
"The cost is usually a challenge in the industry. I think we pay around sixty-eight dollars."
"My company needs to purchase a yearly subscription for the licensing costs for Seqrite Endpoint Security."
"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."
"I give the cost of the solution a seven out of ten."
"There is no option to refund the money and unfortunately, we bought a three-year license, seeing that Quick Heal is a long-established player in the market."
"Though I don't think that this is a cheaply priced product, I feel that it is an affordable solution."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"The licensing fee is 200 Bangladeshi Taka per client per year."
"We pay approximately $1,500 for licenses for the solution."
