Robust, reliable, simple to install and good technical support
We are attempting to improve the use of URL filtering beyond threat protection. I'm not sure what the remaining threat protection features are off the top of my head. But beyond that, we use URL filtering. We have three approved cases for using external dynamic lists that are stored in a bucket repository. Then, for each URL site that needs to be whitelisted, we add it to the external dynamic list in order to gain access to this email. I would like Wildfire to be implemented. We use the equivalent in Cisco is the integration policies. We have the Wildfire but we are not currently implementing it. We don't have the license to use it, but we are not currently implementing it until we present the use cases that the company gives some value to and they approve the use of it.

Offers intrusion detection and mitigation, known signature support, and a database for IPS but setup process is moderately complex
It's more about the SIDS (Snort Intrusion Detection System) For the intrusion detection and mitigation, it has helped us in sort of known signatures and all sort of things. So, we're very happy with the engine. That's the work. The most valuable feature is just seeing the database for IPS and…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Edge protection is a valuable feature."
"It is a stable product."
"I like the solution's interface."
"The application control and vulnerability protection are the most valuable features."
"The stability of Palo Alto Networks Threat Prevention is good."
"Everything has been okay with the solution. We are using all of the features."
"The user interface is a bit more professional than some free products."
"You can scale the product."
"What I like about Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is that it works okay. I don't have time to mess with the tool most of the time because I have way too many tasks to do, but Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System tells you when there's a problem, then it blocks the problem, so that's what I like most about it."
"For intrusion detection and mitigation, it has helped us in sort of known signatures and all sorts of things. So, we're very happy with the engine. That's the work."
"The technical support on offer is very good."
"A standout feature of TippingPoint is its strong integration with various solutions. It stands out as one of the leading network Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS) in the current market and is known for its seamless integration with other solutions. For instance, when it identifies a potential threat within the traffic stream, it meticulously analyzes the data. Even in multilayer security scenarios, Tipping Point's network IPS can serve as a bypass for the basic firewall. If a threat is identified by Tipping Point, it promptly shares this information with the other systems. This ensures that they're updated and can employ the necessary solutions from their signature databases. The entire network gets safeguarded automatically. This integration extends to components like security and FX. This linkage streamlines our operations, offering a consolidated point of control for managing threats effectively."
"The IPS signatures and the IPS database that are given are much better than what is commonly available."
"The solution's IDS functionality filters the traffic and blocks malware by blocking the connections."
"I would rate TTPS's stability eight out of ten."
"It integrates easily."
 

Cons

"Mission learning techniques should continue to expand and detect unknown threats on the fly."
"The pricing has improved with the newer generation of their Firewalls, but the price could always be lower. In comparison with other solutions, I believe they're quite competitive."
"The application’s pricing and dashboard need improvement. It could be user-friendly."
"Palo Alto's maintenance needs to be improved."
"The initial setup is complex."
"Sometimes when you want to group a set of ports, and communicate with Palo Alto, you cannot group TCP and UDP ports together. This needs to be adjusted."
"Palo Alto Networks Threat Prevention could improve the commercial offing. Other solutions, such as Fortinet provide better commercial features."
"The technology firewall anomaly network could stand improvement."
"We need more integration. It would be good if Azure IPS and TippingPoint IPS and other products from Trend Micro like their DBI and IWSVA could talk between each other."
"Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System needs strong Spanish-language support."
"Price is a significant factor that requires attention to enhance the popularity of Tipping Point among mid-sized data centres. Currently, Tipping Point is primarily adopted by sizable data centres, and smaller defenders might find it financially challenging to acquire. Recognizing this, efforts are underway to potentially introduce diverse models with varying capacities. This adjustment aims to ensure that a broader range of data sizes can benefit from the solution. Also, the continuous evolution of Tipping Point is evident in its features, particularly the personalized dashboard and related aspects."
"The solution is pretty expensive."
"It integrates well but it takes time."
"The firewall rules are limited."
"I find Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System a bit clunky, and updating it can be a pain in the neck because you need to do it from time to time, so this is what needs to be improved in it. I would also rather have an all-in-one system that does intrusion detection, protection, web filtering, and also serves as a firewall, and my company is moving to an all-in-one solution, but I'm unsure of how soon that's going to be. Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System also doesn't have enough bandwidth to handle the required traffic within my company, so it's going to be replaced."
"The solution should provide the possibility to mix traffic and the traffic's geographical source to have improved functionality."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing and the licensing are pretty competitive at this stage. As a reseller, I would like to see the price come down a little bit so I can compete better against other firewalls because we do that all the time."
"The pricing has improved with the newer generation of their Firewalls, but the price could always be lower."
"The price of the solution is higher than others on the market. A price reduction would be beneficial if it does not impact their database quality."
"It's not too expensive."
"From one to ten, with one being the most expensive, I would rate the pricing of Palo Alto Networks Threat Prevention a one out of ten. It is my understanding that Palo Alto Networks Threat Prevention is the most expensive one."
"It is an expensive solution and I would like to see a drop in price."
"There is an initial, expensive investment but the return is good."
"The product’s pricing is expensive for small companies."
"It's an expensive product."
"TTPS is reasonably priced."
"We pay for Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System yearly. The cost increases if you add more users."
"It is an expensive solution and I would rate it three out of ten."
"Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is an expensive product."
"The price is in a market-suitable price range. So it's not expensive, but it's also not cheap either. The price is a strong point."
"TippingPoint is not as expensive as Palo Alto but it's not as cheap as Fortigate."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a seven out of ten."
