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.

Endpoint security has improved and real-time detection and response reduce false positives
The best features CrowdStrike Falcon offers are endpoint detection and response, cloud-native lightweight agent, AI-powered threat detection, threat hunting, and Falcon Overwatch. The feature I use the most is endpoint detection and response, which you can call EDR. EDR makes the difference in this case because it provides real-time alerts for suspicious activity and full process tree visibility showing what ran, what spawned, and what is happening inside the LAN on the endpoint. It allows for quick investigation of endpoint logins and quick host isolation to stop the spread. Using CrowdStrike Falcon typically leads to faster threat detection, quicker response, and better visibility across the endpoints. This means I can understand, or an administrator can understand the logs and situation, what is happening with the endpoint, and what suspicious behaviors are occurring inside the endpoints. It has reduced false positives and has a lightweight performance impact, resulting in no heavy use or heavy scans of the agent. User productivity is also increased on the endpoint side.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution helps find bugs, and it is safe to use to prevent attacks by hackers."
"The protection offered by this product is good, as is the endpoint reporting."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its ability to rapidly detect certain hardware files."
"Threat identification and detection are the most valuable features of this solution."
"The interface is easy to use and it is more up to date than our previous solution."
"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."
"It detected stuff that other things wouldn't detect."
"It's a perfect solution. It integrates well into the environment."
"Enables us to understand what processes are running on the system, what registry keys have been enabled."
"The automatic alert feature is the most important feature of the solution."
"Everything you need to know is right there in a single dashboard."
"I like the vulnerability assessment and proactive hunting features of CrowdStrike Falcon."
"The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon is its accuracy. That's very important for me. False-positive are very bad for everyone. As we are a financial institution, it's even worse. I like Falcon because it's very accurate."
"There are two things which customers really like about CrowdStrike: If they buy managed services from CrowdStrike, it offers them detection of security issues in one minute, and if you buy their professional services, they offer insurance where you can claim up to $5 million if there's a breach."
"It has an extremely low footprint, so it has got minimum impact on the user end points in terms of CPU and memory usage."
"Because it is security product and acts like an AIML smart product, not merely based on daily/weekly updates and signatures."
"The update process and policy control are good."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security provides external protection in terms of hard drives."
"The most valuable features are the file activity monitors, DLP solutions, and application controls."
"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."
"There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management."
"I like Seqrite's web protection features and external device control."
"The most valuable part of the solution is its ransomware backup feature."
"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

"Managing the product should be easier."
"The dashboard could use some significant improvement, just making it more useful with more information. It has a limited amount of information right now. It is customizable, but I'd love to see a better out-of-box dashboard."
"The solution could improve by providing better integration with their own products and others."
"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."
"A little bit more automation would be nice."
"The solution should offer more dashboards and they should be better customized."
"There is a severe gap in functionality between Windows, Linux, and Mac versions."
"The solution could improve by providing better integration with their own products and others."
"The biggest issue with Falcon as a standalone product is it doesn't have very much reporting."
"The pricing is a bit too high."
"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."
"It would be nice if the dashboard had some more information upfront, and looked a little better."
"The solution needs to have integration with on-premises security devices and security facilities. That means all the security products, including the perimeter firewall, the DMZ."
"The current version of Falcon does not support DLP which may be good to have in an EDR solution."
"There are some areas where some customers would prefer a different service."
"They need to strengthen the forensic capabilities of this product, for e-discovery."
"In the next version, they should improve the areas of utility and centralized control."
"We are using Apple devices, and the advanced device control service doesn't work for M1 chips devices, like Apple MacBooks."
"When we fire any employee connected remotely over the internet, we need a security feature that blocks the system and the device."
"The solution could improve by providing better security and a cloud base version."
"The product or service could be improved by incorporating SIEM integrations to enable the collection of logs."
"Endpoint Security would be improved by adding DLP."
"It should be able to detect and report any ransomware attack but currently, it doesn't detect and it doesn't report any."
"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

"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."
"Very costly product."
"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."
"Licensing for Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR can be costly, especially when it comes to a hundred users. A license is required for each user, and the subscription must be renewed on a yearly basis."
"It's way too expensive, but security is expensive. You pay for your licensing, and then you pay for someone to monitor the stuff."
"The pricing is okay, although direct support can be expensive."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is quite an expensive solution."
"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."
"There is an annual license required to use this solution."
"The pricing is good and there are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
"We have a yearly subscription and find the price to be good. I'd give it a rating of four out of five for price, we got a good discount."
"With respect to pricing, my suggestion to others is to evaluate the environment and purchase what you need."
"The pricing could be reduced. If it was more reasonable that would be great."
"This solution has a very competitive price."
"CrowdStrike Falcon offers excellent value for the money for our organization, particularly given our lean IT team."
"It is an expensive product, but I think it is well worth the investment."
"You need to pay for a yearly license for Seqrite Endpoint Security, which is expensive."
"We pay approximately $1,500 for licenses for the solution."
"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."
"The solution has reasonable pricing. There is one pricing without any hidden charges. They have to pay once a year or three years."
"Endpoint Security is cheaper than Trend Micro."
"It is a cheaply priced product."
"The solution's pricing is good for us, where it is neither cheap nor expensive."
