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.

With DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities, the solution also offers great technical support

The most valuable features of the solution are DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities. It is a lightweight solution with good features, allowing for application control. The solution also offers good DLP features, and our company recently upgraded to use its XDR features. The solution's XDR features work smoothly in our company. With the lightweight nature of the solution and its features, my team was required to deploy the solution in our company. Our company also receives good support from Seqrite, which was one of the main reasons we chose the solution since we could get help if we faced any issues with the solution.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The anti-exploit is impenetrable."

"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."

"Palo Alto is the best security solution in the market."

"The product has an intuitive dashboard."

"Cortex XDR can integrate the firewalls and determine the tendencies of the attacks. It's a new generation antivirus, with protection endpoints and detection response. It is very easy to use and everybody can operate the solution."

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks should be a stable solution."

"The scalability of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is very good."

"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."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"As long as the machine is connected to the Internet, and CrowdStrike is running, then it will be on and we will have visibility; no VPNing in or making some type of network connection. CrowdStrike always there and running in the background; for us, that is big. We wanted something that could give us data as long as the machines connected to the Internet and be almost invisible to the employees."

"The machine learning behavior for anomaly detection is a valuable feature. It helps identify any suspicious or unusual activities within the system."

"The ability to remote into other devices for investigation and the way it presents a graphical representation of the detection, like the parent-child process, are valuable features."

"I like Falcon's threat detection and endpoint investigation features. It's a user-friendly solution."

"I like its detection capabilities, number one."

"Falcon has the capacity to identify potential problems quickly. The administrator can deploy the agent, and the users cannot change it. This assures you that the agent remains on this device. Also, the agent can act preemptively to provide alerts about potential problems."

"The pay-as-you-go model enabled me to deploy quickly from the AWS Marketplace management account, scaled protection for workloads without upfront commitments, and reduced the initial operational overhead."

"The most beneficial features of CrowdStrike Falcon are that it is easy to install, easy to manage, lightweight, and it can stop breaches."

More CrowdStrike Falcon pros

"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."

"The most valuable part of the solution is its ransomware backup feature."

"The product's initial setup phase is easy."

"With Seqrite, it is completely protected, and we have full control over what is happening on the end user's laptop."

"The overall performance of the server and the dashboard are the most interesting aspects of the solution."

"The solution is centrally managed, easy to configure, and easy to use."

"The most valuable features are the file activity monitors, DLP solutions, and application controls."

"We found the DLP to be innovative and useful."

More Seqrite Endpoint Security pros

Cons

"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 technical support is not very good. I find the process difficult."

"If you compare it to SentinelOne, which has more functionalities and detection capabilities on an open platform, the pricing on SentinelOne is far more reasonable and cheaper than Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks."

"Being able to filter the events to see those that are related to the actual alert would save time spent by the engineer."

"Cortex XDR could improve its sales support team, including better commission structures and referral programs."

"It automatically detects security issues. It should be able to protect our network devices while operating autonomously."

"The product's pricing could be better."

"If they had pulse rate detection, it would be better."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"I think there's an opportunity to enhance the AI or at least the traps to say, if something changes from this baseline, let us know and flag it."

"Whenever there is a feature release (upgrade) where we push to all the endpoints, it causes something to be blocked without us knowing."

"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."

"If CrowdStrike can further expand its support for XDR compatibility, that would give it an edge over all the other competing new products."

"The solution should have included remote wipe capability out of the box."

"During these two years with CrowdStrike Falcon, I certainly faced some problems, including the known CrowdStrike outage, which was quite pinching and brought many of the Windows-related services to a halt just because of one bad configuration push from CrowdStrike tracks."

"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."

"We'd like to see more integration capabilities."

More CrowdStrike Falcon cons

"The solution could improve by providing better security and a cloud base version."

"User management could be improved."

"The stability is zero, Seqrite doesn't work, and the company doesn't accept the problems."

"The solution could integrate with other products to provide a comprehensive protection strategy."

"The product or service could be improved by incorporating SIEM integrations to enable the collection of logs."

"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."

"The solution's integration capabilities are moderate and could be improved."

"User management is not that good currently, and so we have trouble with handling user management."

More Seqrite Endpoint Security cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution is high for the license and in general."

"It has a yearly renewal."

"The price is on the higher side, but it's okay."

"I'm not directly involved in sales, so I can't comment on the exact price, but I know the price decreases the higher the quantity we purchase."

"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."

"The pricing could be reduced. If it was more reasonable that would be great."

"The cost of CrowdStrike Falcon in Latin America seems high relative to the economic conditions in the region."

"In my opinion, the pricing of CrowdStrike Falcon seems aggressive."
