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

"The ability to kind of stitch everything together and see the actual complete picture is very useful. I guess you'd call it a playbook. Some people call it the forensics analysis of what was happening on particular endpoints when they detected some malicious behavior, and what transpired before that to cause that. It is also very user friendly. The way they have done everything and integrated all the solutions that they've purchased over the years to make it a very seamless, effective product is very good. One thing about Palo Alto is that they take the products or services that they purchase and make them seamless for the end user as compared to some companies that purchase other companies and then just kind of have their products off to the side or keep different interfaces. Palo Alto doesn't do that."

"Cortex XDR can integrate the firewalls and determine the tendencies of the attacks. It's a new generation antivirus, with protection endpoints and detection response. It is very easy to use and everybody can operate the solution."

"Stability is a primary factor, and then there's the ease of distribution and policy management; Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is very easy to work with, and we're quite happy with them."

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

"One thing that I like about Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, it is detecting all the suspicious or malicious binaries, and it has integration with Palo Alto Firewall."

"The main benefit of using Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks while employing Palo Alto Firewall at the internet edge is that it improves security on our endpoint devices, integrating seamlessly with Palo Alto Firewalls to deliver comprehensive network, analyst, and security details all in a single dashboard, which allows us to manage everything from our network devices."

"Cortex XDR is a simple platform that's easy for administrators and users. You have a lot of flexibility to change or customize the features."

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

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

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

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

"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 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 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."

"Endpoint Security's best features are inventory, asset management, and quick scanning."

"The only thing that I have found useful is that I have an overview of my systems in the networks."

"The setup process was easy for our remote clients and us as well."

"The overall performance of the server and the dashboard are the most interesting aspects of the solution."

"The solution effectively detects malicious files and blocks sign-ins."

"The two valuable features are anti-ransomware and data loss protection."

"We were excited about the cloud-based management features of Seqrite and were looking to use the same."

"The update process and policy control are good."

Cons

"I have seen lagging with Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks. There was one time when we faced a threat actor trying to gain access to our system. When our team utilized the tool, we were all on the same dashboard and we faced a lag issue at that time of around five minutes, which was quite significant."

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is not only pricey; it is extremely expensive."

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks can improve mobile integration to allow access to the console."

"There are some limitations on the Traps agents."

"Currently, if you use Palo Alto endpoint protection as the only solution it's very complicated to remove pre-existing threats."

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks could improve by offering remote management. It would be useful to look at the client's issue to fix it."

"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."

"It takes time to scan the servers and devices."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"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."

"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."

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

"A handbook of known issues and quick fixes should be given so that troubleshooting and frustration are less."

"The solution's integration capabilities are moderate and could be improved."

"User management could be improved."

"In the next version, they should improve the areas of utility and centralized control."

"We would like the solution to have integration with other security solutions so that we can have a single base for monitoring all the security incidents and concerns."

"The product or service could be improved by incorporating SIEM integrations to enable the collection of logs."

"We are using Apple devices, and the advanced device control service doesn't work for M1 chips devices, like Apple MacBooks."

"The interface is slow."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is a little bit on the expensive side."

"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."

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

"It's about $55 per license on a yearly basis."

"It is cost-effective compared to similar solutions. It fits for the small businesses through to the big businesses."

"I don't recall what the cost was, but it wasn't really that expensive."

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

"The tool's price is moderate."

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."

"The pricing is reasonable."

"We get the tool for around 1200 rupees for a three-year subscription. I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."

"The license isn't expensive."

"There is no option to refund the money and unfortunately, we bought a three-year license, seeing that Quick Heal is a long-established player in the market."

"As per the suggestions from one of the experts we know, it is advisable to make a proper comparison with the local vendors instead of solely relying on online prices, which are often higher and quite expensive."
