Comprehensive coverage, no vendor lock-in, and best customer relationship
Before Anvilogic, we had no visibility into our detection coverage. The ability to break it down by industry verticals, such as attackers and adversaries, is valuable. Detection insights help us easily identify the most noisy ones, the effective ones, and what needs to be fixed to move the noisy ones to effective ones. The hunting capabilities are very good. The AI components and hunting packages give us quick insights into what needs to be looked at. The partnership has been very good. Their professional services and customer relationship have been very good. Our features and bugs have been fixed on time without a lot of follow-up, and their support has been excellent. Finally, there is a feature within Anvilogic that provides the threat landscape or our effectiveness towards the threat landscape on an ongoing basis. That is another feature that we liked.
AKASH MAJUMDER - PeerSpot reviewer
Incident response times have significantly reduced with efficient device integration and log parsing capabilities
Cortex XSIAM needs improvements in terms of data onboarding, parsers, and third-party integration supports. Additionally, a future update request is to enable tagging of endpoints in groups, similar to a feature available in Cortex XDR. The AI analytics need fine-tuning because some use cases are not working from my side.

Cons

"I am not sure if any improvements are needed right now."

"The solution is expensive compared to its competitors."
"Since Palo Alto is trying to get as many new customers as possible, they're offering very competitive pricing."
"The solution comes at a significant cost."
