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

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks has helped lighten the load of our security analysts because it was the major tool that we were using and the one we utilized most."

"It blocks malicious files, prevents attacks, and doesn't require many updates because it is a very light application."

"One of the main benefits of the solution is its intelligence to correlate the events into an incident."

"We can visualize and control the activities in the environment from anywhere."

"The best feature of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is that it collects logs from different sections such as the endpoint, the network, and the cloud, making it easy to investigate alerts, collect some of the investigation packages related to the infected machines, and provide live response."

"The product is mostly automated, and we do not have to make decisions, because all the decisions are made by the product itself and we are not required to create any custom policies since the policies that are created are well defined in the product itself."

"The solution's stability is generally good."

"The management capabilities, allow an IT organization to get quite a good picture of attempted cyber attacks."

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 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."

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

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

"Previously, we used a mix of Trend/Sophos/Symantec. Webroot has all their best bits combined into one solution."

"Its ease of installation is valuable. It has been a low-resource tool and the continuous updates in the past have made it attractive from the standpoint of the trust level on the protection."

"The ability to generate profiles specific to both business groups and organizations has made managing nearly 1000 endpoints very simple."

"Valuable features include good scanning, very light footprint and management console that the client can access and (just as important) in which I can see status of groups of computers (I am a consultant, IT role)."

"Their policy management, their cloud-based dashboard and user interface are very easy to navigate."

"Speed"

"The Webroot cloud console is very powerful."

Cons

"There is a severe gap in functionality between Windows, Linux, and Mac versions."

"The MAC agent is not as robust feature-wise as the PC version."

"There are some default policies which sometimes affect our applications and cause them to run around. In the hotel industry, we use a different type of data versus Oracle and SQL. By default, there are some policies which stop us from running properly. Because of this, the support level is also not that strong. We have to wait to get a results."

"The solution should offer more dashboards and they should be better customized."

"The solution could improve by providing better integration with their own products and others."

"Every 30 or 40 days, there's a new version and we need to go and make sure our customer's laptops are upgraded."

"The solution needs better reports. I think they should let the customer go in and customize the reports."

"The product's pricing needs improvement. They could provide more discounts. Additionally, the dashboard and control panel could be enhanced."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

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

"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."

"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."

"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."

"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."

"We need to have a stronger defense against CryptoLock and other attackers."

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

"It would be great if there was a feature which would allow you to scan an individual file on an endpoint user's computer."

"One of the biggest pain points is that it's not really ransomware-oriented. They will be able to catch some, but that's where Sentinel One is a better player compared to Webroot."

"Technical support is not the best. It's hard to get a hold of them if we need help. It's something that definitely needs improvement."

"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."

"We need more control over when upgrades to the app are rolled out."

"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."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"The return on investment is from the user side because we have seen the performance of it increase the delivery time of the product if we are using too many web-based and on-premise applications. In indirect ways, we saw the return of investment in terms of performance and user satisfaction increase."

"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."

"It has a higher cost than other solutions, like CrowdStrike or Microsoft’s EDR tools, but it reduces the cost of our operations because it’s a new generation antivirus tool."

"Traps pays for itself within the first 16 months of a three-year subscription. This is attributed to OPEX savings, as security teams spent less time trying to identify and isolate malware for analysis as a result of a reduction in malware incidents, false positives, and breach avoidance."

"Every customer has to pay for a license because it doesn't work with what you get from a managed services provider."

"The pricing seems fair, and I do like the licensing model. You use wherever they are, and it is elastic."

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."

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

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

"If you purchase for clients, then you are the managing billing entity. It's better to either get a monthly subscription check from your clients, or to prepay for the year (so as to not keep cash in reserve to pay the bill each month) IMHO."

"I can't recall the exact pricing, but I believe there is a monthly fee of $20-30 per user."

"Webroot is less expensive than SentinelOne."

"With Webroot Business Endpoint Protection, I can select a yearly billing cycle."

"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."

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