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.

Centralized threat visibility has improved detection speed and strengthened endpoint protection
CrowdStrike Falcon is a very powerful tool, but at times the high initial adoption cost can be burdensome. To get the maximum benefit, as in our case where we integrate it with other security systems, a certain level of expertise is required, which is somewhat disappointing. Sometimes updates can cause unexpected issues in the system, so rigorous pre-testing is essential, and that is another point of concern. In the future, I would like to see even smoother integration with other security tools. If more flexible pricing models or SMB-focused packages were introduced so that small and medium-sized businesses can adopt it without too much burden, I think many more organizations could benefit.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is easy to use."
"There are a lot of lead solutions in this space, however, Palo Alto is number one."
"The policy configuration is great, the granularity of policies that are available is very helpful, it is straightforward to set up, and it has pretty much everything we need and works well within the Palo Alto ecosystem."
"The positive impacts I see from Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks include a complete 360-degree view of our security posture altogether, being a uniform platform where we are ingesting logs from multiple resources."
"Being a cloud solution it is very flexible in serving internal and external connections and a broad range of devices."
"We have found in our test Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks to be a very good tool."
"One of the main benefits of the solution is its intelligence to correlate the events into an incident."
"Cortex XDR's most valuable feature is its intelligence-based dashboards."
"The detection is very effective."
"CrowdStrike Falcon has positively impacted endpoint security and reduced the response time for incidents and alerts."
"When something is detected you can log into the GUI and you can get very specific details about what happened."
"Regarding features, I appreciate its integration capabilities with identity providers...Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"This solution consistently releases improvements. They have communicated their next two years of development which is powerful and covers all of our needs."
"We have been completely happy with the solution that we have been running on for years now and have never regretted our decision."
"CrowdStrike Falcon is able to identify threats based on processes, rather than looking at signatures and this is what I like about this solution."
"Without CrowdStrike, our environment is risky for the developers. As it is now, we have not had any security issues for two years."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security provides external protection in terms of hard drives."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security is a good solution."
"Endpoint Security's best features are inventory, asset management, and quick scanning."
"The only thing that I have found useful is that I have an overview of my systems in the networks."
"The overall performance of the server and the dashboard are the most interesting aspects of the solution."
"There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management."
"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."
 

Cons

"The price could be a little lower."
"Limited remote connection."
"Cortex XDR is trickier to configure than other Palo Alto products. This is one area where we are not so satisfied."
"As an improvement, I would like to see enhanced connection speeds."
"There are some false positives."
"Dashboards do not allow everyone to see what's happening."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"I would love to see more investment in Insight because CrowdStrike have an opportunity to potentially displace some of the vulnerability management vendors with the visibility they can see over time. I want to see them continue to evolve, e.g., what other things can they disrupt which are operational things we have to continue to do as an organization."
"CrowdStrike Suites and the way that it bundles things can be a bit challenging. It should be easier to integrate with the other stuff that they sell or be included with what they sell. We have one piece, then they are talking about another piece on vulnerability management all of the sudden, and we don't own that piece. We can see it in the console, but nothing shows up. It simply appears within the tool as an option, but we can't use it without purchasing it."
"The tool is more expensive than other products in the market."
"We have had to go back to CrowdStrike, and say, "Our search are taking far too long for even one host.""
"Whenever there is a feature release (upgrade) where we push to all the endpoints, it causes something to be blocked without us knowing."
"I would rate it an eight out of ten. It does what it needs to do but there's always room for improvement."
"Tighter integration around XDR could be included."
"When we fire any employee connected remotely over the internet, we need a security feature that blocks the system and the device."
"In the next version, they should improve the areas of utility and centralized control."
"The solution could integrate with other products to provide a comprehensive protection strategy."
"The solution needs to improve stability."
"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."
"I would like to see Seqrite add a remote profile so we can implement different policies for users connecting to the in-office LAN and those accessing the office network from home or a public internet connection."
"User management is not that good currently, and so we have trouble with handling user management."
"We are using Apple devices, and the advanced device control service doesn't work for M1 chips devices, like Apple MacBooks."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"When we first bought it, it was a bit expensive, but it was worth it. The licensing was straightforward."
"The return on investment is from the user side because we have seen the performance of it increase the delivery time of the product if we are using too many web-based and on-premise applications. In indirect ways, we saw the return of investment in terms of performance and user satisfaction increase."
"If one wishes to work with another team or large number of users at a future point, he must purchase a license for them."
"The solution has one subscription for endpoint protection and one subscription for detection and response. The two licenses combined give you the BRO version."
"I don't recall what the cost was, but it wasn't really that expensive."
"It has reasonable pricing for the use cases it provides to the company."
"The cost depends on your chosen license type, like Pro or other licenses."
"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 price is too high."
"CrowdStrike is well priced. On a yearly basis, it costs between $60 and $100 per user."
"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."
"We are at about $60,000 per year."
"The pricing is good and there are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
"The price is fixed with no room for negotiation."
"I am not aware of the price, but I believe that it is among the most expensive XDRs out there. Of course, this is dependent on the features you choose. Depending on the features, the price might increase."
"There is an annual license required to use this solution."
"The solution has reasonable pricing. There is one pricing without any hidden charges. They have to pay once a year or three years."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"It is a cheaply priced product."
"We pay approximately $1,500 for licenses for the solution."
"We get the tool for around 1200 rupees for a three-year subscription. I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
"Endpoint Security is cheaper than Trend Micro."
"My company needs to purchase a yearly subscription for the licensing costs for Seqrite Endpoint Security."
"The licensing fee is 200 Bangladeshi Taka per client per year."
