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.

Cloud-native security has improved real-time threat detection and streamlined daily operations
While CrowdStrike Falcon is strong overall, there are a few areas where it could be improved. First, the user interface can be a bit complex for new users. Sometimes, navigating through different sections and understanding detailed alerts takes time, especially for teams without deep security expertise. The cost is also something to consider, as the features and additional modules can increase pricing, which may be a challenge for smaller teams. Additionally, some integrations with simpler reporting would be helpful. The onboarding process for new users is a bit challenging for beginners to understand all features and workflows in the product. More simplified documentation, step-by-step guides, and real-world examples could help new users get comfortable faster. A structured onboarding or basic training module would be very useful for teams who are new to endpoint security tools. In addition, having more in-product guidance and tooltips within the dashboard could make navigation easier and reduce the learning curve. Overall, improving training resources and onboarding support would make the platform more user-friendly, especially for new users.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Traps pays for itself within the first 16 months of a three-year subscription."
"We've had a significant increase in blocking with a decrease in false positives, because it's looking at how the files work, not just a list of files that it's been told to look for."
"It's a perfect solution. It integrates well into the environment."
"Cortex is the best tool for endpoint detection, and I have used it to verify hashes or domains to identify malicious activity, trigger playbooks that automate and gather endpoint logs, block malicious processes, and update incident tickets, showcasing end-to-end processes with automation in investigation and reducing the analysis workflow."
"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."
"They did what they said, and this solution could apply to any scenario."
"The stability of this product is very good."
"It is easy to use."
"The most valuable aspects of CrowdStrike Falcon for me are its device observability, identification, and software and OS recognition."
"CrowdStrike is deployed on every workstation, so policy changes can be enforced on all of them. It lowers the manual work on each of the workstations. It has helped us manage device usage in our environment."
"The product provides good monitoring features."
"The detection and response have been excellent overall."
"CrowdStrike Falcon has done an excellent job at detecting breaches; it has allowed us to stay in business and kept our systems up while multiple partners and service providers have been taken down by ransomware and other cyberattacks."
"We've had security incidents that occurred and within a matter of just a couple of minutes, they were completely remediated and fixed and we didn't even have to think about it."
"CrowdStrike is very easy to set up."
"The endpoint and server management are the most valuable features of CrowdStrike Falcon."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"The overall performance of the server and the dashboard are the most interesting aspects of the solution."
"We found the DLP to be innovative and useful."
"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."
"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."
"The solution effectively detects malicious files and blocks sign-ins."
"The convenience has been great."
 

Cons

"When it comes to core analysis, and security analysis, Cortex needs to provide more information."
"The GUI could be improved. It's a little bit cumbersome. It could be more user-friendly."
"It's very time-consuming to log support issues and the people that answer the tickets aren't very knowledgeable."
"The product's pricing needs improvement. They could provide more discounts. Additionally, the dashboard and control panel could be enhanced."
"The solution lags to the real-time scenarios here and there."
"This product has not improved my organization - in fact, we are in the process of moving back to another product as a result of Cortex's horrible impact on system performance."
"The tool needs to be improved in terms of integration and interface."
"There are some default policies which sometimes affect our applications and cause them to run around. In the hotel industry, we use a different type of data versus Oracle and SQL. By default, there are some policies which stop us from running properly. Because of this, the support level is also not that strong. We have to wait to get a results."
"A year and a half ago or more, if you put in a support request by email, then it wasn't timely addressed. It could be a day to three days before you received a response, which was a bit frustrating. There was a lot of customer feedback around this issue, which has been greatly refined."
"This solution could be improved with greater scope for admins to make changes to the solution."
"In CrowdStrike, with the variety of security tools available, learning the different query languages can be challenging."
"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."
"This solution is relatively expensive."
"They respond quickly on the weekdays, but the weekend response times are slower."
"The GUI can use improvement, it's cloud-based so sometimes the interface can be a bit slow. The interface could use a little bit more speed."
"The support for different OS versions needs improvement because sometimes due to business conditions, updating our OS is impossible."
"We would like the solution to have integration with other security solutions so that we can have a single base for monitoring all the security incidents and concerns."
"The solution could integrate with other products to provide a comprehensive protection strategy."
"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."
"In the next version, they should improve the areas of utility and centralized control."
"User management could be improved."
"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."
"The product or service could be improved by incorporating SIEM integrations to enable the collection of logs."
