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.

Efficient threat detection and seamless deployment improve overall security
The single panel console of CrowdStrike Falcon is very user-friendly, which is what we are looking for. Having multiple administrators between various offices with this single console gives us the ability to see all offices, branch offices, and partners, making it very useful to detect machines, identify machines, and check security risks. Everything in the single console is very useful. CrowdStrike Falcon has positively impacted our organization in terms of efficiency because it's very lightweight, easy to deploy, easy to manage, and works very efficiently. It quickly detects issues and doesn't have a signature-based system, so it works fast and takes immediate action.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Cortex XDR is a simple platform that's easy for administrators and users. You have a lot of flexibility to change or customize the features."
"If any application performs suspicious activities, such as changing registries or modifying other applications, Cortex XDR detects and blocks the entire application."
"Traps is quite a stable product. Once it was properly deployed and configured, you have nothing to be worried about."
"Palo Alto is one of the tech vendors that always provides top-of-the-line products."
"After deploying Traps, we saw the performance of the network improve by 65 to 70 percent."
"In one single alert, we are getting the network telemetry, endpoint telemetry, email security telemetry, and proxy telemetry all in one single ticket, making it very easy."
"The most valuable feature of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is the low consumption of system resources. The solution uses a lot of AI and machine learning."
"The stability of the solution is very good. We have about 100 users on it right now, and we use it twice a week."
"CrowdStrike enables the infrastructure managers to visualize all the events and get information about the network."
"It's very easy to set up."
"CrowdStrike Falcon is able to identify threats based on processes, rather than looking at signatures and this is what I like about this solution."
"The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon for me is its unified sensor, applicable across all models."
"This solution has made the lives of the IT staff much easier, compared to the previous one."
"Falcon has decreased the load on our analyst team because they don't have to manually contact the system owners to stop that particular event from happening as Falcon detects threats and quarantines the machines itself."
"CrowdStrike Falcon has a ransom detection time of less than 50 seconds."
"So far, in the past three years, they've been absolutely great."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security is a good solution."
"The two valuable features are anti-ransomware and data loss protection."
"The solution is centrally managed, easy to configure, and easy to use."
"We were excited about the cloud-based management features of Seqrite and were looking to use the same."
"The setup process was easy for our remote clients and us as well."
"The overall performance of the server and the dashboard are the most interesting aspects of the solution."
"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."
"With Seqrite, it is completely protected, and we have full control over what is happening on the end user's laptop."
 

Cons

"The GUI could be improved."
"Although I would say this product is highly-rated, it could probably do more because nothing does everything that you want."
"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."
"As an improvement, I would like to see enhanced connection speeds."
"The solution lags to the real-time scenarios here and there."
"The installation should be easier and the Palo Alto pre-sales and sales teams should have more information on the product because they don't know what they are selling."
"Initially, we got to have a lot of false positives when we onboarded, but nowadays it's quite smooth."
"When it comes to core analysis, and security analysis, Cortex needs to provide more information."
"Forensic controls have room for improvement."
"In the future release of CrowdStrike Falcon, they should add a sandbox feature."
"The performance could be better. It's a bit slow."
"Technical support could be better than what is currently offered."
"The tool is more expensive than other products in the market."
"There are some areas where some customers would prefer a different service."
"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."
"We would like to be able to perform on-demand scanning, rather than relying on the scheduler."
"When we fire any employee connected remotely over the internet, we need a security feature that blocks the system and the device."
"The stability is zero, Seqrite doesn't work, and the company doesn't accept the problems."
"A handbook of known issues and quick fixes should be given so that troubleshooting and frustration are less."
"User management is not that good currently, and so we have trouble with handling user management."
"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."
"Endpoint Security would be improved by adding DLP."
"The cost of the solution can be improved."
"The solution could integrate with other products to provide a comprehensive protection strategy."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's price is moderate."
"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."
"I don't recall what the cost was, but it wasn't really that expensive."
"The pricing seems fair, and I do like the licensing model. You use wherever they are, and it is elastic."
"It has a yearly renewal."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is quite an expensive solution."
"We didn't have to pay any additional fee for the cloud instance. It just came with the renewal, which was nice."
"It's way too expensive, but security is expensive. You pay for your licensing, and then you pay for someone to monitor the stuff."
"We pay between $30-50 per user for a yearly license, which is more expensive than SentinelOne or Bitdefender. However, CrowdStrike gives better value for money."
"I would like them to further reduce the price, because it is quite pricey at the moment."
"Crowdstrike Falcon is relatively cheap."
"CrowdStrike Falcon can be more expensive than some competitors, and its base price doesn't cover every feature."
"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."
"The solution's pricing is great for us."
"While CrowdStrike Falcon offers significant security benefits, its high price point might make it prohibitively expensive for many small and medium-sized businesses, including companies like ours."
"The pricing is not bad. It's on the higher end of the market, but you get what you pay for."
"My company needs to purchase a yearly subscription for the licensing costs for Seqrite Endpoint Security."
"We get the tool for around 1200 rupees for a three-year subscription. I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
"The solution's pricing is good for us, where it is neither cheap nor expensive."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"The solution has reasonable pricing. There is one pricing without any hidden charges. They have to pay once a year or three years."
"It is a cheaply priced product."
"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 licensing fee is 200 Bangladeshi Taka per client per year."
