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

"Palo Alto is one of the tech vendors that always provides top-of-the-line products."
"Traps has drastically reduced our endpoint attack surface via advanced detection capabilities, sandboxing of never before seen programs, and by drastically limiting where executables can launch in the first place."
"The product is very good, it has caught a lot of exploits that most products would not."
"Traps has drastically reduced our endpoint attack surface via advanced detection capabilities, sandboxing of never before seen programs, and by drastically limiting where executables can launch in the first place."
"The tool's use cases are relevant to security."
"They did what they said, and this solution could apply to any scenario."
"Cortex XDR lets us manage several clients from the same console, and its endpoint defense is more advanced than traditional antivirus."
"The solution allows us to gain remote access without the user's knowledge and take the necessary actions on the device."
"The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon is its accuracy."
"CrowdStrike Falcon has positively impacted my organization by providing good protection, logs, and reports, which I find very good."
"I am very happy with CrowdStrike Falcon because it does not use a lot of resources in the endpoint, it's a lightweight solution."
"Their endpoint is pretty flawless. There is no lag on the machines at all. Even though I have a good overview of all the machines, that's pretty much the most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon."
"Regarding features, I appreciate its integration capabilities with identity providers...Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon is its accuracy."
"I value the overall behavior analysis of CrowdStrike. The engine of this product is what drew us to this solution."
"The setup process was easy for our remote clients and us as well."
"There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management."
"The only thing that I have found useful is that I have an overview of my systems in the networks."
"The convenience has been great."
"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 only thing that I have found useful is that I have an overview of my systems in the networks."
"The solution is stable."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security is a good solution."
 

Cons

"The solution should offer more dashboards and they should be better customized."
"However, if you do not have Palo Alto in your environment, you are paying these additional services just for Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, so it is not a cost-effective solution."
"The product's pricing needs improvement. They could provide more discounts. Additionally, the dashboard and control panel could be enhanced."
"This is a very costly product."
"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."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks can improve mobile integration to allow access to the console."
"The solution lacks real-time, on-demand antivirus."
"Although I would say this product is highly-rated, it could probably do more because nothing does everything that you want."
"The malware analysis could be improved, as that's what we use the solution for the most and that change would make it a better EDR tool."
"The management and log aggregation need some improvement."
"The dashboard does not have the facility to export the reports in a PDF format, which I can quickly share with internal stakeholders."
"This solution could be improved with greater scope for admins to make changes to the solution."
"The price is too high."
"CrowdStrike Falcon by itself does not supply in-depth reporting."
"Deployment in cloud environments is challenging. Another concern is CrowdStrike's GUI. It changes annually, making it hard to work and find options."
"For CrowdStrike to work, all the machines need to have an internet connection. This makes it challenging to assist customers without an internet connection."
"User management could be improved."
"The solution needs to improve stability."
"In the next version, they should improve the areas of utility and centralized control."
"The solution could integrate with other products to provide a comprehensive protection strategy."
"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 don't feel that the scalability part of Seqrite Endpoint Security is better than the other products in the market."
"The stability is zero, Seqrite doesn't work, and the company doesn't accept the problems."
"Endpoint Security would be improved by adding DLP."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's the most expensive solution, but features-wise, it's quite strong. It's very good for protection, so the results are very good in the case of protection. I would rate it a two out of ten in terms of pricing."
"Licensing for Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR can be costly, especially when it comes to a hundred users. A license is required for each user, and the subscription must be renewed on a yearly basis."

"I am using the Community edition."
"I don't recall what the cost was, but it wasn't really that expensive."
"Our customers have expressed that the price is high."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is quite an expensive solution."

"Annual licensing."
"There is an annual license required to use this solution."
"There are approximately a hundred different modules you have to purchase, depending on what you want to do. I have most of the modules.

You only need to pay for the modules you want."
"This solution offers annual subscriptions. The pricing for this solution could be reduced."
"The pricing of CrowdStrike Falcon is competitive."
