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.

Achieve effective email management while identifying areas for security upgrades
There are a couple of issues we have encountered while using Trend Micro Worry-Free Services Suites for the past four or five years. The first is the Business Email Compromise (BEC) issue. Even though we configured the business email compromise option, we still face this issue sometimes where people are getting emails directly with our email ID. We were not able to get a satisfactory answer from them regarding the BEC issue. The ransomware protection issue for the old servers or outdated servers and recovery of the data needs improvement in Trend Micro Worry-Free Services Suites. The ransomware protection issue for old servers and business email compromise also needs to be upgraded because even though it's configured, we still face this BEC issue. The response time of the support also needs improvement.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution helps find bugs, and it is safe to use to prevent attacks by hackers."
"Cortex covers everything I need. It's a perfect solution. Cortex provides a different level of visibility because it's an extended EDR, allowing you to grab logs from the network and firewalls. Palo Alto invented the concept of the extended EDR or XDR."
"The stability of the solution is very good. We have about 100 users on it right now, and we use it twice a week."
"Cortex XDR features advanced threat detection capabilities."
"After installing this solution, it identified, blocked, and provided the complete attack chain, which was very helpful."
"They have a new GUI which is just fantastic."
"The initial setup is easy."
"I like the centralized console and the predictive analysis it does of malware. It is very stable and also scalable."
"The solution offers a ransomware vaccine which has been very beneficial to our organization."
"The solution protects us so that we have regular security from attacks."
"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 endpoint protection is the solution's most valuable feature."
"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."
"I like the simplicity of this solution and the fact that it saves us time."
"Trend Micro Worry-Free Services Suites has an inbuilt auto scan facility. It is very good at detection and response, and it includes a web filtering option."
"The multi-tenancy feature is beneficial for managing different customers, allowing for efficient handling across various tenants."
"The most valuable features of Trend Micro Worry-Free Services Suites that I found are the antivirus, anti-spamming, anti-malware services that customers are looking for and using, and they are satisfied with that."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the ease of deployment."
"The most important feature is behaviour detection."
"The solution offers a comprehensive solution that includes antivirus, malware protection, ransomware protection, web filtering, and device control features. It provides networking capabilities, making it a robust solution for comprehensive security needs."
"The solution's ability to operate without placing a heavy burden on our system resources is particularly commendable."
"The load balancer feature is excellent."
 

Cons

"Every 30 or 40 days, there's a new version and we need to go and make sure our customer's laptops are upgraded."
"This is a very costly product."
"It's very time-consuming to log support issues and the people that answer the tickets aren't very knowledgeable."
"I would like to see improvement in the tool's user interface, particularly in the area of managing alerts and providing more reporting capabilities."
"The installation should be easier and the Palo Alto pre-sales and sales teams should have more information on the product because they don't know what they are selling."
"The deployment is pretty hard."
"The price could be a little lower."
"The product's pricing needs improvement. They could provide more discounts. Additionally, the dashboard and control panel could be enhanced."
"The database needs improvement. It needs to be updated quite a bit."
"Customer service needs a lot of improvement. They never replied or responded to our queries over the three years we've used it."
"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."
"The log management feature needs to be improved, specifically, the ability to send logs from the console via API."
"Even though we configured the business email compromise option, we still face this issue sometimes where people are getting emails directly with our email ID."
"Trend Micro should improve its Worry-Free Services Suites, particularly the agent for Windows operating systems."
"The solution's documentation is not good, and I'm struggling to change global configurations."
"The solution’s scalability is limited."
"Network vulnerability scanning could be improved."
"However, we are mostly facing issues related to pricing in Worry-Free; we often lose cases based on pricing, not on other factors."
"The pricing of Trend Micro is a little bit higher compared to Sophos."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Our license will require renewal in August, after which the maintenance will continue as usual."
"The cost depends on your chosen license type, like Pro or other licenses."

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