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.

Protects personal devices effectively and prevents access to fraudulent websites

The only thing that it does not include, which I would like to see in it, is the VPN. If VPN was included in Bitdefender Total Security, that would be a really valuable feature to add to the product. The VPN is handy, but to pay quite a lot more on top is costly. VPN is becoming a lot more commonplace and needed, and some competitors are now including it as part of their offering. I have no intention of moving away from Bitdefender Total Security, but I just think that could be quite a valuable addition to have as part of the product.

With DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities, the solution also offers great technical support

The most valuable features of the solution are DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities. It is a lightweight solution with good features, allowing for application control. The solution also offers good DLP features, and our company recently upgraded to use its XDR features. The solution's XDR features work smoothly in our company. With the lightweight nature of the solution and its features, my team was required to deploy the solution in our company. Our company also receives good support from Seqrite, which was one of the main reasons we chose the solution since we could get help if we faced any issues with the solution.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The stability of this product is very good."

"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."

"But overall, when we speak about security and protection, they are one of the top providers."

"It can automatically correlate events and logs, which is very helpful for an IT administrator. It can correlate different kinds of malware activities over a network, agent, or host system. You do not need to do it manually. It is a good feature. It is also a user-friendly solution. We have deployed it on the cloud because our space does not provide any flexibility for on-premises deployment, but Palo Alto has added some flexibility to install it on-premises. It must be like the same Cortex XDR agent for all the VPN services, web filtering services, and everything else."

"The level of security I get for my endpoints and servers is extremely valuable."

"Cortex XDR lets us manage several clients from the same console, and its endpoint defense is more advanced than traditional antivirus."

"We think that this product will help us grow, as it meets our needs currently and we can grow with it over time."

"The tool is easy to use."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"I value Bitdefender Total Security for its effectiveness in scanning even the latest threats, and protecting my system from potential malware."

"The product is stable"

"I highly recommend Bitdefender Total Security for other users; in independent tests, it has always performed the highest out of any of the endpoint solutions."

"The dashboard and granular control features are great."

"It speeds up processes, efficiently cleans up caches that would typically take a considerable amount of time to locate, and overall, it noticeably quickens the pace of my computer usage."

"The tool blocks malicious downloads. Its most valuable feature is the Autopilot mode."

"Bitdefender Total Security is a cloud-based solution with lower costs. We haven't encountered any security issues since using the product."

"It enhances our cybersecurity measures, especially beneficial for entrepreneurs."

More Bitdefender Total Security pros

"I like Seqrite's web protection features and external device control."

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

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

"With Seqrite, it is completely protected, and we have full control over what is happening on the end user's laptop."

"The most valuable features are the file activity monitors, DLP solutions, and application controls."

"The solution's current features include antivirus, web filtering, file activity monitoring, PAM, firewall, IDS/IPS, and DLP. Though I'm not familiar with the whole solution, it is good."

"The convenience has been great."

"We found the DLP to be innovative and useful."

Cons

"The solution can never really be an on-premises solution based simply on the way it is set up. It needs metadata to run and improve. Having an on-premises solution would cut it off from making improvements."

"It automatically detects security issues. It should be able to protect our network devices while operating autonomously."

"In the next release, I would like to see more UI improvements. Their UI is a bit basic. When we are speaking about Palo Alto Networks they are the big company, so they can improve the UI a little bit. The UI, the reports, the log system can all be improved."

"Previously, the endpoint would leave the environment, not being on our VPN, essentially unable to interact with the server to upload files. It was unable to retrieve new file verdicts. It was using a thing called "local analysis" to determine if something was a malicious file or not. There was no dynamic analysis."

"The solution lacks real-time, on-demand antivirus."

"Being able to filter the events to see those that are related to the actual alert would save time spent by the engineer."

"I have faced some issues with Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks; there is room for improvement in the sense that certain options prevent us from seeing and segregating data."

"For working with the solution, you only really need a web browser, however, we've found that working on Chrome, for example, is horrible."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"Bitdefender Total Security needs to improve its security features."

"If Bitdefender Total Security could reduce the processing power."

"The location-tracking feature for finding phones could be improved, as well as the remote wipe functionality."

"When it comes to areas for enhancement, I would suggest focusing on advanced threat detection to address evolving malware."

"I would like to see some flexibility in the ransomware limitations."

"Bitdefender Total Security must expand its global presence, particularly in establishing legal offices in various countries, including Saudi Arabia."

"I would find it more useful to receive notifications more often than just reporting on what's happening."

"It would be beneficial if Bitdefender could enhance the speed of its updates for a more immediate response to emerging threats."

More Bitdefender Total Security cons

"Deployment of Seqrite Endpoint Security is generally straightforward. The only complexity we encounter is that, since it is cloud-based, there can be delays in updating the endpoint's status."

"The solution could improve by providing better security and a cloud base version."

"The pricing could be a bit lower."

"The interface is slow."

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

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

"I don't feel that the scalability part of Seqrite Endpoint Security is better than the other products in the market."

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

More Seqrite Endpoint Security cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive. It's pricing is on a yearly-basis."

"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."

"Cortex XDR’s pricing is very reasonable."

"The price was fine."

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

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

"Cortex XDR's pricing is ok."

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

"It falls in the middle range in terms of pricing—it's neither very cheap nor overly expensive."

"The tool's pricing is high compared to other products."

"The product is not expensive."

"The pricing is quite reasonable. I don't find it expensive."

"My company needs to purchase a yearly subscription for the licensing costs for Seqrite Endpoint Security."

"The solution's pricing is good for us, where it is neither cheap nor expensive."

"Endpoint Security is cheaper than Trend Micro."

"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."

"You need to pay for a yearly license for Seqrite Endpoint Security, which is expensive."

"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."
