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 product's most valuable features are massive user and feature intelligence exploit detection."
"They did what they said. This solution could apply to any scenario."
"We can visualize and control the activities in the environment from anywhere."
"It can automatically correlate events and logs, which is very helpful for an IT administrator. It can correlate different kinds of malware activities over a network, agent, or host system. You do not need to do it manually. It is a good feature. It is also a user-friendly solution. We have deployed it on the cloud because our space does not provide any flexibility for on-premises deployment, but Palo Alto has added some flexibility to install it on-premises. It must be like the same Cortex XDR agent for all the VPN services, web filtering services, and everything else."
"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."
"Traps is quite a stable product. Once it was properly deployed and configured, you have nothing to be worried about."
"The best feature of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is that it collects logs from different sections such as the endpoint, the network, and the cloud, making it easy to investigate alerts, collect some of the investigation packages related to the infected machines, and provide live response."
"After installing this solution, it identified, blocked, and provided the complete attack chain, which was very helpful."
"The most valuable feature is the indicator of compromise, which show you what file was either quarantined or removed."
"We have seen a reduction to the performance hit to our operating systems."
"I like the overall reports of this solution. They are crisp, and to the point."
"EDR is effective in CrowdStrike."
"We like Falcon's network visibility. We can see how threats are evolving on PCS or in the company network. The solution's real-time incident response is very fast."
"CrowdStrike has improved our incident response capabilities."
"The initial setup is a very fast process."
"The best benefit of CrowdStrike Falcon is 99% MITRE coverage."
"The solution effectively detects malicious files and blocks sign-ins."
"The setup process was easy for our remote clients and us as well."
"The update process and policy control are good."
"The solution is stable."
"I like Seqrite's web protection features and external device control."
"The solution is centrally managed, easy to configure, and easy to use."
"The only thing that I have found useful is that I have an overview of my systems in the networks."
"There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management."
 

Cons

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks could improve by offering remote management. It would be useful to look at the client's issue to fix it."
"In an upcoming release, the solution could improve by proving hard disk encryption. If it could support this it would be a complete solution."
"Currently, we are monitoring all USB drives and ports but we would like to improve our device control capabilities."
"It's not an ideal choice for smaller businesses, as you need a minimum of 200 endpoints to even use the solution at all."
"The setup is quite easy. We had appropriate support from the manager. One thing that was missing was the integration part."
"While using Cortex, I noticed some aspects that could be improved, such as increasing the synchronization speed between XDR and Xnor."
"In terms of areas of improvement, we have not completed our review of the product. We're also looking at other products. So, it's a little bit hard to tell what could be different because we have not completed the review of this product, but based on our experience so far, its implementation is quite complex."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is a very good product, but financially, it is very expensive, so the company should look into that area."
"In the six months that I have been using CrowdStrike, it has not been able to detect anything."
"I recommend that some deep-dive trainings are required for the NG SIEM, specifically for their next-generation SIEM module, as they need some basic trainings for that."
"They offered a white glove service that was extremely costly. When we got into it, we saw it was relatively easy. If I was being nitpicky, I'd say that I don't like being sold something that's unnecessary. That's the only downside I've seen to the solution."
"The current database schema presents challenges and has potential for improvement."
"The KDR solution is immature. They do not have much preemption in ITDR. Threat prevention should be their first priority, and false positive reductions are needed."
"CrowdStrike Falcon sometimes wrongly flags things as malicious. Let's say a user is active on Chrome only. Sometimes, our cross-segmenting will fetch from the backend data and show that it is malicious because of memory or CPU utilization."
"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."
"The new interface, the UI, seems a bit messy."
"It should be able to detect and report any ransomware attack but currently, it doesn't detect and it doesn't report any."
"In the next version, they should improve the areas of utility and centralized control."
"The solution needs to improve stability."
"The pricing could be a bit lower."
"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."
"The support offered by the tool is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"User management could be improved."
"The solution could improve by providing better security and a cloud base version."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I don't have any issues with the pricing. We are satisfied with the price."
"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."
"The tool's price is moderate."
"We pay about $50,000 USD per year for a bundle that includes Cortex XDR."
"Its pricing is kind of in line with its competitors and everybody else out there."
"I am using the Community edition."
"Our license will require renewal in August, after which the maintenance will continue as usual."
"The pricing seems fair, and I do like the licensing model. You use wherever they are, and it is elastic."
"Crowdstrike Falcon is relatively cheap."
"CrowdStrike Falcon is more expensive than other EDR solutions with similar features."
"Purchasing the product through the AWS Marketplace is just a click away. Since we were using the on-premise version of the product, we continued on the cloud by purchasing it through the AWS Marketplace."
"The more endpoints an organization adds the cheaper the cost."
"The other administrator and I can log in to check the exact details of what happened, what was running, and what caused the detection. We know exactly what was happening on the end users PC and we can tell if it's something that we actually need or something that's malicious."
"It has an annual license, and it is not that expensive."
"The pricing is not bad. It's on the higher end of the market, but you get what you pay for."
"The price of CrowdStrike Falcon could be better. It is very expensive, we pay approximately $900 per month for the licenses. There are not any additional fees."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"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."
"I give the cost of the solution a seven out of ten."
"Though I don't think that this is a cheaply priced product, I feel that it is an affordable solution."
"It is a cheaply priced product."
"The license isn't expensive."
"The licensing fee is 200 Bangladeshi Taka per client per year."
"Endpoint Security is cheaper than Trend Micro."
