While being easy to manage and create reports, the tool also offers a good UI
I rate the ease of use and management of Panda Adaptive Defense 360 an eight on a scale of one to ten. The tool's ability to provide information about the vulnerability is the most impactful feature of the product that has an impact on our company's security posture. Speaking about scenarios where the solution effectively prevented the security breach, I would say that our company sees how the tool blocks when our customers accidentally click on some malware, after which it quarantines that file. My company makes a playbook with the SOAR tool that Panda Adaptive Defense 360 uses to block and isolate attacks. In our company's system, if there is a big event that occurs, then to block the endpoint, we use SOAR with Panda Adaptive Defense 360 to block and isolate attacks or threats. The solution's real-time monitoring has improved our company's ability to detect threats if we use it in our company with Panda SIEMFeeder. Only if in my company there is a need to do some research, prepare a report, or if we want to change the policy, so it is not very often that we use the visualization part of the tool in our company. The reporting and analytics part of the tool has helped with the decision-making in our company since we combine different kinds of logs and situations from different ingestion logs, and we can configure a specific alert. In my company, we use the tool's data search functionality if required to check the information we need. Presently, our company uses the configuration alert and SIEMFeeder in our system. I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

Is able to make several campaigns work in parallel, but the user interface needs improvement
It's mainly used by the cybersecurity team for Windows patching and deployment of some software solutions I like the fact that you can create patching campaigns depending on the area of your network that you want to address first. I like the ability it has to make several campaigns that work in…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is stable, and the performance is good."
"Panda Security solution has a feature to block any unknown process and that is what is best about it."
"I like the Panda Security Adaptive Defense cloud usages. Everything is on a single plane of glass like the dashboards. I also like the information I can get about the computers itself."
"The patch management module is very important."
"It allows us to stop activation windows."
"The detection capabilities for malicious activities are effective."
"The feature I find most valuable is the advance search engine."
"The interface is great."
"I like the tool's incident response and security patching."
"Tanium’s linear-chain architecture is valuable."
"Tanium's most valuable feature is its instant discovery aspect."
"The security features are very valuable."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the consolidation of all historical data on device endpoints, security drivers, firmware, and Software version gaps."
"The solution is scalable and helps to understand how infrastructure works. It helps to improve the health of the organization."
"When I push a quick update, it's done right away, and I can rescan immediately to confirm completion within minutes."
"Tanium's most valuable features are patch management, inventory, and distribution software."
 

Cons

"Improvements could be made in terms of how the reporting is structured."
"They could have more reports."
"The Linux installation is performed on the command line and they need a package installer for that operating system."
"They need to offer a clear dashboard so you can see everything everywhere all at once."
"The software has performance issues due to its requirements on the processor, however, these issues are common with other vendors, not just WatchGuard."
"Needs a better way to scan the hardware to detect whether it's valid."
"Panda Security Adaptive Defense can improve by including the intrusion and prevention system not only on their most expensive platform. Additionally, it blocks software that is legitimate from users. They complain and then we have to manually unblock the software, by hash, or we receive a message. Some of the prevention features are not available and this might cause us to need a separate firewall or something to protect the company."
"The gap between the two final conclusions is a problem, whether or not a file is known to be malware or is known to be safe."
"Tanium’s scalability could be improved."
"The solution lacks mobility."
"I would like to have more integrations and custom plugins to input. Integration is always a big deal in a lot of different environments."
"Tanium's limitations should be improved because although it is a great tool, it is limited to only a few classes during a session."
"The performance could improve in future releases. We have had performance issues in specialized web environments, but overall I think the problems are less than 2% of the computer systems being used."
"Most of the time, agent-relative issues have to be more equipped with self-healing features. At times, the agent is there, but for some reason, it doesn't report a status. It gives certain problems that are obviously agent-based."
"The reporting could be improved."
"They could improve the UI."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Panda is cloud-only and comes at a reasonable cost. It is a set price per seat."
"Customers need to pay monthly licensing costs for Panda Security Adaptive Defense, which is not expensive."

"The licensing is subscription-based and priced well compared to other endpoint security solutions."
"The licensing costs are not too high. We pay about 20 Euros a year. It's a reasonable amount to pay."
