Gained full visibility and streamlined threat detection through behavior-based insights and AI integration

Initially, we got to have a lot of false positives when we onboarded, but nowadays it's quite smooth. We have fine-tuned our security policies and allowed different levels of policies to get rid of those false positives. Currently, we are getting a fairly good amount of incidents that are not false positives or benign, but actionable items. The process is streamlined. In the initial days, the operations used to get involved in a lot of benign and other activities, but now the process is streamlined. We are leveraging the auto-detection and remediation plans. The operations teams are now more involved in other business roles as well, not just looking into the logs and fetching out what's happening there. They have fixed a lot of things. Initially, they didn't have IAC code drift detection, cloud posture management, or security posture management, but they have those now. They purchased different vendors and did a merger with that. They have now Prisma Cloud that gets integrated and now they are working with Cortex Cloud. Everything that was negative has now been addressed, and the product altogether looks to be in a very better and mature shape now. Currently, it's more or less detecting the workloads with AI-based best practices. Since most organizations are consuming AI agents and other things, we are looking forward to seeing what other feature enhancements Palo Alto can support in that.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This software helps us understand any issues that may arise when someone is not at work."

"The solution doesn't need a high level of technical training."

"It's a nice product that's stable and scalable."

"If you are looking to deploy a security solution as a whole, this is a good option."

"The most valuable for us is the correlation feature."

"They did what they said, and this solution could apply to any scenario."

"The positive impacts I see from Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks include a complete 360-degree view of our security posture altogether, being a uniform platform where we are ingesting logs from multiple resources."

"The solution allows us to gain remote access without the user's knowledge and take the necessary actions on the device."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"The endpoint protection is the solution's most valuable feature."

"The solution protects us so that we have regular security from attacks."

"I like the simplicity of this solution and the fact that it saves us time."

"The solution offers a ransomware vaccine which has been very beneficial to our organization."

"I like the simplicity of this solution and the fact that it saves us time. The deployment was really straightforward and useful and I am impressed by the anti-virus endpoint detection and response offered by this solution."

"The solution has exchange protection. It has a content control, device control, a firewall, and anti-malware as well. They are all quite valuable features for us."

"The most valuable aspect of the solution is that they have the lightest agent, as it is only six MBs, installs in a matter of seconds, is very lightweight, and has a very minimal, negligible performance impact on the machine and endpoints."

"It is pretty unintrusive. It doesn't take over the system like McAfee or Norton. It doesn't use a whole lot of resources. McAfee and Norton use a lot of resources."

"It monitors traffic and keeps us from getting ransomware or other viruses."

"I like that Webroot is very lightweight. It didn't bog down the machine, and more importantly, it had heuristics artificial intelligence to some degree. It wasn't like full-blown artificial intelligence, but something where you have one endpoint recognizing issues because it maintains a cloud database. If one client recognizes a threat, it would add it to the database, and almost immediately, every agent in the world would also know about that threat. That was very appealing to us. However, now it's becoming commonplace, whereas ventures like Symantec and McAfee were based more on the traditional model of definition and updates, and we were always falling behind. Webroot also has pretty good technical support."

"It is excellent endpoint protection for mobiles that does everything it says it will."

"I haven't observed any of the instabilities in the solution. It is a stable solution."

"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is easy to use, stable, flexible, and the performance is great."

"The initial setup was straightforward. It took five minutes. I installed the solution myself."

Cons

"Enhancing UI simplicity and playbook flexibility are areas that could benefit from more low-code automation options for smoother integrations."

"I have run into some detection issues with Cortex XDR. It needs to be better at detection of internal attacks."

"Limited remote connection."

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks could improve by adding a sandbox feature to better compete with their competitors which have it."

"Cortex XDR could be improved with more GUI features."

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is a strong tool, but it is true that digesting information sometimes makes the tool go a little bit slower."

"Fine-tuning the detection policy requires experience because the policy is very complex in Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, and we get high false positive alerts."

"The dashboard is the area that needs to improve so that we can have the ability to drill down without having to go elsewhere to verify results."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"There are blurred lines between anti-virus and endpoint detection so I would say it can be confusing when you are considering buying this program. I would like to see that being explained better to the customer."

"The database needs improvement. It needs to be updated quite a bit."

"There needs to be better integration with the environment. Especially, for the active directory and also for keeping up with the changes from Microsoft. We use a lot of Microsoft OS. I have noted that sometimes they lag behind Microsoft updates. For example, when with Windows 10. I had some issues with deploying to Windows 10 because the solution was behind in updating their own services to match the Microsoft release."

"Customer service needs a lot of improvement. They never replied or responded to our queries over the three years we've used it."

"Webroot is very reactionary. It waits until the threat is active within memory to try and detect it. They need better pre-execution detection and prevention."

"Usually, when it comes to reliability, McAfee and Norton are at 99 percent. Webroot's percentage is lower. It is 94% reliable in terms of what it catches, but you're trading that percentage for customer satisfaction because your computer isn't being constantly told that it just blocked something, or it just did something."

"We were attacked by CryptoLock. It didn't protect us in the way we needed to and an attack was able to get through their defenses."

"The only complaint I have with Webroot is its inability to prevent UoD phishing and its inability to check against bots or block anti-attacks. Plus the URL server is in zero-definition."

"The platform is mostly stable, however there are hiccups with the cloud from time-to-time that impact the ability to get to the portal."

"The console spins up relatively slowly, and some of the configuration items are obscure (e.g., reporting back one time per day is a default setting) and need to be tweaked."

"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection needs to improve its ability to detect threats."

"It would be nice if it had a feature for automatically generating reports on the client end for device status, security status and backup information."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is okay, although direct support can be expensive."

"Compared to CrowdStrike, Cortex XDR is an expensive solution."

"I did PoCs on products called Cylance and CrowdStrike. Although, I consider these products and they were also good, when it come to cost and budgetary factors, Traps has been proven to be better than the other two products. It is quite cost-effective and delivers all the entire solution which we require."

"Cortex XDR’s pricing is very reasonable."

"In terms of the cost Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is very expensive because we are a Mexican company and when you translate dollars to pesos the cost is very high. The solution is very expensive for Mexican companies. I understand that they have international prices, but I do not think it offsets the price enough for many companies in countries, such as Mexico. The amount it is reduced is not a massive percentage."

"If one wishes to work with another team or large number of users at a future point, he must purchase a license for them."

"The price of the solution is high for the license and in general."

"It is present, but when compared to other competitive products, I would say it is not less expensive; however, when all of the other added values are considered, the price is reasonable."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pricing and cost advice

"There's a yearly cost for licensing. For us, that comes to $1,400. There are no additional costs beyond the license itself."

"From a pricing standpoint, I would rate it a four out of five."

"We are on an annual subscription for the use of Webroot Business Endpoint Protection."

"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is not too expensive. My licenses cost me between $300 and $400. It is really good price wise."

"The pricing is high."

"Work on a price tier plan."

"Its cost is not much per month. Our price is a couple of bucks a user."

"I rate the product's pricing a three on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive. There are no costs in addition to the product's standard licensing fees."

"We evaluate other options using multiple choices, best value, management and functionality."
