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

"Stability is one of the features we like the most."
"This software helps us understand any issues that may arise when someone is not at work."
"They did what they said. This solution could apply to any scenario."
"The level of security I get for my endpoints and servers is extremely valuable."
"The management capabilities, allow an IT organization to get quite a good picture of attempted cyber attacks."
"There are a lot of lead solutions in this space, however, Palo Alto is number one."
"It blocks malicious files. It prevents attacks. It doesn't require many updates, it's a very light application."
"The solution doesn't need a high level of technical training."
"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."
"The scalability is good."
"The product is really good, but there is a lot of additional features that you need to have for it to be a complete solution."
"The real-time analytics aspect of CrowdStrike performs well because we get all logs in real-time, with no delay, allowing us to take action immediately."
"The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon is its accuracy. That's very important for me. False-positive are very bad for everyone. As we are a financial institution, it's even worse. I like Falcon because it's very accurate."
"This product has worked flawlessly to prevent breaches, and then it has allowed us to prevent any downtime."
"The CrowdStrike Falcon dashboard is good, and we haven't had any problems with it."
"From what we have seen, it is very scalable. We have recently acquired a company where someone had a ransomware attack when we joined networks. Within the course of just a few days, we were able to easily get CrowdStrike rolled out to about 300 machines. That also included the removal of that company's legacy anti-malware tool."
"The solution effectively detects malicious files and blocks sign-ins."
"With Seqrite, it is completely protected, and we have full control over what is happening on the end user's laptop."
"There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management."
"We found the DLP to be innovative and useful."
"The setup process was easy for our remote clients and us as well."
"I like Seqrite's web protection features and external device control."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security is a good solution."
"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."
 

Cons

"There is a severe gap in functionality between Windows, Linux, and Mac versions."
"The connection to the internet has not performed as expected."
"In general, the price could be more competitive."
"It's not an ideal choice for smaller businesses, as you need a minimum of 200 endpoints to even use the solution at all."
"I feel that it should not be a licensed activity because a feature should allow us to see applications running on end devices."
"There are some default policies which sometimes affect our applications and cause them to run around."
"In an upcoming release, the solution could improve by proving hard disk encryption. If it could support this it would be a complete solution."
"Cortex XDR could be improved with more GUI features."
"Not being able to complete the deployment in an efficient manner is one of the huge weaknesses."
"CrowdStrike Falcon by itself does not supply in-depth reporting."
"The performance could be better."
"They need to strengthen the forensic capabilities of this product, for e-discovery."
"We have had to open a case with the technical support to get some issues and bugs resolved, but they were resolved relatively quickly."
"The management reporting functionality needs to be improved."
"Sometimes CrowdStrike changes the GUI, and they need to be better at informing us and providing guidance concerning that."
"The biggest issue occurred when every computer worldwide experienced a blue screen."
"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 solution could improve by providing better security and a cloud base version."
"Endpoint Security would be improved by adding DLP."
"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 interface is slow."
"Deployment of Seqrite Endpoint Security is generally straightforward. The only complexity we encounter is that, since it is cloud-based, there can be delays in updating the endpoint's status."
"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."
 

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 of the solution is high for the license and in general."
"It's way too expensive, but security is expensive. You pay for your licensing, and then you pay for someone to monitor the stuff."
"It is "expensive" and flexible."
"The cost depends on your chosen license type, like Pro or other licenses."
"It has a higher cost than other solutions, like CrowdStrike or Microsoft’s EDR tools, but it reduces the cost of our operations because it’s a new generation antivirus tool."
"The price of the solution could be reduced. I have customers that have voiced that the solution is good for the value but if I want to sell more of the solution the price reduction would help."
"The price of the product is not very economical."
"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."
"There is an annual license required to use this solution."
"There are three to four licensing models available to choose from for CrowdStrike Falcon. The price of CrowdStrike Falcon depends on the distributor and the reseller partner. The price we received was good."
"When it comes to licensing, customers can choose a bundle or select licences based on the specific features they would like access to. This solution comes with premium pricing. It is approximately 20 to 30% more expensive than competing solutions."
"CrowdStrike Falcon offers excellent value for the money for our organization, particularly given our lean IT team."
"Our company pays approximately US$ 65,000 annually for 900 machines."
"The pricing of CrowdStrike Falcon is competitive."
"The pricing and licensing are fairly good. It is definitely not a cheap product, but I have felt that it is worth the money that we spent. So, we have discussed it in the past, and were like, "Yes, it is probably pricier than some other solutions, but we also feel they really are the leader. We are very comfortable with their level of expertise. So, it's kind of worth the price that we pay.""
"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."
"You need to pay for a yearly license for Seqrite Endpoint Security, which is expensive."
"I give the cost of the solution a seven out of ten."
"The solution's pricing is good for us, where it is neither cheap nor expensive."
"My company needs to purchase a yearly subscription for the licensing costs for Seqrite Endpoint Security."
"As per the suggestions from one of the experts we know, it is advisable to make a proper comparison with the local vendors instead of solely relying on online prices, which are often higher and quite expensive."
"Licensing fees are on a yearly basis. Compared to other solutions, this solution is cheaper."
"Endpoint Security is cheaper than Trend Micro."
