"Also, the strength of the community is invaluable."
"Once this solution is set up, we hardly have to touch it."
"AWS Firewall Manager isn't a separate solution when you create the virtual private cloud (VPC), so you can control the traffic through that security group."
"It has centralized cloud firewall management rules. It provides compliance in tracking and reporting."
"The most valuable feature is the centrally managed rule. I also like the central orchestration."
"Technical support is quite helpful."
"The most valuable feature of Palo Alto Networks Panorama is the simplicity of rule management. Both this device group and template management are very easy to use."
"The product features allow the capacity to take effective, advanced security measures."
"Overall, the functionality was very good."
"The reporting is great."
"The most valuable feature of Palo Alto Networks Panorama is its ease of use."
"I like its flexibility."
"This solution is user-friendly. It is centrally managed and provides role optimization, without the need for additional tools."
"This solution is suitable for a small-scale enterprise and may not scale up to a very high volume of traffic or a large number of servers."
"They could consider organizing and enhancing documentation in a more structured and chronological manner"
"It needs to be more employee-friendly, and the security management could be more efficient."
"I would like to see AWS add some UTM features to the firewall. It would also be great if AWS Firewall had native IPS/IDS. They have the separate IPS/IDS, GuardDuty."
"The system should be more customizable."
"Enabling and configuring the logging is not that straightforward."
"Sometimes technical support is slow to respond."
"My company's getting whatever it needs from Palo Alto Networks Panorama, but in the cloud, there's an issue with CPU management, and that's an area for improvement. Though the normal data traffic doesn't go through the management interface, whenever there's an increase in the throughput, CPU management becomes high. If you increase the load, CPU management spikes, and it's what needs to be taken care of in Palo Alto Networks Panorama."
"I am observing that whenever pushing our configurations sometimes the configuration will not push properly and then we have to go to the individual firewall and save it again."
"The pricing is quite high."
"It could be easier to manage. In the future, it should be much easier because it's not very easy to manage. So in the next release, I think it should be much easier to manage, especially in the first configuration. It could also be more stable."
"It can take a few minutes to test to see if any changes are successful or not. This needs to be improved. A commit change should take a second, not a minute or more."
"The ability to add scheduled jobs would be a significant improvement. Panorama has the ability to push out OS updates, but it would be nice to be able to schedule those updates so not to affect the site during normal business hours."
"A potential improvement for Palo Alto Networks Panorama could be a more competitive pricing structure."
