Featured Reviews

Massimiliano La Camera - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides cost saving and offers device visibility
I think it's a stable solution and don't foresee any problems in the future. It's a leading security platform and is widely used in Italy. This gives them full visibility of all devices, which is often difficult to achieve. IT managers usually lack visibility into all products and security solutions. However, this platform lets customers gain visibility of their entire device environment. I rate its stability an eight out of ten.

Muhammad Ahsan Riaz - PeerSpot reviewer
Responsive system enhances network management but integration needs refinement
I find Palo Alto Networks IoT Security to be highly responsive, and its separate management and data planes are a major advantage. As an insurance company in the financial sector, we must meet strict regulatory requirements, and Palo Alto has proven to be an excellent solution. Its management is straightforward, the dashboards and reporting are comprehensive, and most importantly, it functions exactly as described in the documentation. For example, when we needed to block YouTube on our network, Palo Alto successfully blocked access while our Cisco firewall failed to block access on iPhones. This highlights the inconsistency we've experienced with different firewalls, whereas Palo Alto has consistently performed as expected.
