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

"Based on my experience, I would recommend Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks to other people."
"It's very stable. I've never experienced downtime for the ASM console or ASM core."
"If the user leaves our premises or network, Palo Alto Traps will still be on that endpoint and will still apply our policies."
"The good thing about the product is that it's always scanning."
"We switched because there were a lot of added features with Palo Alto that Check Point didn't have, and it was an upgrade for us."
"Stability is a primary factor, and then there's the ease of distribution and policy management; Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is very easy to work with, and we're quite happy with them."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks saves time in various ways, although the user interface is fairly standard."
"The most valuable feature is that you can select remote access of any machine for sandboxing."
"The biggest ROI is the operational cost reduction, where automatic updates now take care of themselves and you are looking at saving six to seven months of a person's time, collectively, which would have been spent on just doing this one function alone."
"CrowdStrike's advantage is that the agent is light, so it doesn't require many resources on the machines, it's easy to install, and the results are useful to the organization."
"We have seen a reduction to the performance hit to our operating systems."
"The product provides good monitoring features."
"CrowdStrike Falcon has been very low maintenance."
"The solution's reporting console is phenomenal, and I can get a lot of data out of it."
"The detection is very effective."
"We don't need to maintain onsite servers and deep end user updates with the new vulnerabilities."
"There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management."
"The overall performance of the server and the dashboard are the most interesting aspects of the solution."
"The most valuable features are the file activity monitors, DLP solutions, and application controls."
"We found the DLP to be innovative and useful."
"Endpoint Security's best features are inventory, asset management, and quick scanning."
"The update process and policy control are good."
"With Seqrite, it is completely protected, and we have full control over what is happening on the end user's laptop."
"The only thing that I have found useful is that I have an overview of my systems in the networks."
 

Cons

"Dashboards do not allow everyone to see what's happening."
"We would also like to have advanced tech protection and email scanning."
"If Palo Alto reduces the pricing slightly for their products, it would make them more scalable in markets such as India and globally for cybersecurity."
"There are some third-party solutions that are difficult to integrate with, which is something that can be improved."
"Cortex XDR is trickier to configure than other Palo Alto products. This is one area where we are not so satisfied."
"There's room for improvement with Mac device installations, which can be challenging."
"The setup is quite easy. We had appropriate support from the manager. One thing that was missing was the integration part."
"The tool needs to be improved in terms of integration and interface."
"There are a lot of open integrations, but they are external factors that cause dependencies on the integrator, not really on CrowdStrike, so it's a bit of a challenge as there is no comprehensive solution."
"CrowdStrike needs to quit making up stuff about its features and functionality to bash its competition."
"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."
"Crowdstrike Falcon XDR can improve the integration. There are some locks on the cloud to on-premise integrations."
"Dashboard creation is one of the areas for improvement in CrowdStrike Falcon. Sometimes, management asks for a custom dashboard, so my team has to collect data from CrowdStrike Falcon, integrate that in Splunk, then create the dashboard in Splunk. The Splunk dashboard is more elaborate, so the CrowdStrike Falcon dashboard needs improvement. Another area for improvement in the tool is the malware detection report, as it needs to be more detailed and include some graphics so that if you want to present that data in a nutshell, it's easier to do. For example, the report should consist of some graphical representation that shows a month's worth of data. In terms of an additional feature I'd like CrowdStrike Falcon to have, it's the device posture assessment feature that detects the device posture within the network. Whichever device connects to the corporate network, my company should be able to analyze the device posture. Then there should be communication with the network, which means that as soon as a device connects, CrowdStrike Falcon can assess the device posture, detect its corporate asset, and decide whether it should be allowed on the network."
"The product is quite expensive."
"The solution could improve the policies themselves. It would be helpful if there were cost-cutting measures."
"We can do a threat analysis of any machine at any time, but that threat analysis is very limited."
"The cost of the solution can be improved."
"The stability is zero, Seqrite doesn't work, and the company doesn't accept the problems."
"I don't feel that the scalability part of Seqrite Endpoint Security is better than the other products in the market."
"In the next version, they should improve the areas of utility and centralized control."
"Endpoint Security would be improved by adding DLP."
"We are using Apple devices, and the advanced device control service doesn't work for M1 chips devices, like Apple MacBooks."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"When we first bought it, it was a bit expensive, but it was worth it. The licensing was straightforward."
"The price was fine."
"The pricing is okay, although direct support can be expensive."
"The cost depends on your chosen license type, like Pro or other licenses."
"Every customer has to pay for a license because it doesn't work with what you get from a managed services provider."
"The price of the product is not very economical."
"I don't recall what the cost was, but it wasn't really that expensive."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is quite an expensive solution."
"Pricing and licensing seem to be in line with what they offer. We are a smaller organization, so pricing is important. Obviously, we would make a business case if it is something we really needed or felt that we needed. So, the pricing is in line with what we are getting from a product standpoint."
"Our company pays approximately US$ 65,000 annually for 900 machines."
"There is no license required to use this solution."
"This solution offers annual subscriptions. The pricing for this solution could be reduced."
"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."
"CrowdStrike Falcon's price is good."
"CrowdStrike Falcon offers excellent value for the money for our organization, particularly given our lean IT team."
"CrowdStrike Falcon is more expensive than other EDR solutions with similar features."
"It is a cheaply priced product."
"Though I don't think that this is a cheaply priced product, I feel that it is an affordable solution."
"The solution's pricing is good for us, where it is neither cheap nor expensive."
"The licensing fee is 200 Bangladeshi Taka per client per year."
"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."
"The license isn't expensive."
"We get the tool for around 1200 rupees for a three-year subscription. I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
