Senior Process Expert at A.P. Moller - Maersk
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.

Doesn't have daily updates, which is important for healthcare IT
I face challenges with the exclusion policy - it still scans folders we told it not to, causing issues. When we contact support, they tell us to update the latest agent, but we can't do that immediately due to medical device protocols and validation testing. I wish support would try to understand our issues better instead of giving this standard response. The machine learning feature they use often tells us to upgrade the agent or add things to the exclusion list, which isn't unacceptable. It's a very good and new technology as a tool and antivirus. But sometimes, it doesn't work properly with our medical devices and products, quarantining files it shouldn't even after we add them to exclusions. This is tricky for us.

Reduces the time to detect and respond with moderate pricing
The centralized control feature is excellent. It provides a user-friendly interface for managing items and active endpoints, making it easy for central managers to control the network. I recommend it, but we need some documentation or a presentation from Seqrite. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We've had a significant increase in blocking with a decrease in false positives, because it's looking at how the files work, not just a list of files that it's been told to look for."
"Threat identification and detection are the most valuable features of this solution."
"Traps pays for itself within the first 16 months of a three-year subscription."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is its machine-learning capabilities. Additionally, there is full integration with other solutions."
"If the user leaves our premises or network, Palo Alto Traps will still be on that endpoint and will still apply our policies."
"It's a nice product that's stable and scalable."
"I recognize that Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is one of the best products in its category regarding capabilities."
"This technology is very good, very stable, and we have great trust in it and what it delivers."
"On the management side, we liked the way it displays things."
"Has good RAM capacity for the power I need"
"We have been trained to learn how to use the product and now we have a very good experience with it."
"I've found the AI engine in CylancePROTECT to be particularly effective for technology and in preventing unknown threats."
"From an administrative overhead point of view, there is a 75% reduction in administrating the solution."
"The CylancePROTECT agent is very low on CPU usage, so it has virtually no adverse impact on my servers, desktops, or workstations."
"The solution is stable."
"The solution installs very easily."
"Seqrite has significantly reduced the time it takes to detect and respond."
 

Cons

"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."
"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."
"It's not an ideal choice for smaller businesses, as you need a minimum of 200 endpoints to even use the solution at all."
"The solution eats memory of the computer, unlike anything I've ever seen."
"It would be better if they could educate the customers more. Some sort of seminars and roadshows will help educate the customers and show what the product can do. The price could be better. It would also help if they had a team for deployment and support."
"We had a problem with getting our older endpoints up to date, but their newest updates have been really good. I've been pleased with it in terms of what our needs are. It's doing what we want it to do."
"It would be good if they could make an exception for applications. Sometimes, it can be a bit of a challenge to make exceptions for certain applications that have been used as rogue."
"Cortex XDR is trickier to configure than other Palo Alto products. This is one area where we are not so satisfied."
"The company that sells us the licenses sometimes doesn't know how to do certain things."
"The product does not do a lot of reporting on what it is taking care of. Enhanced reporting would be a welcome improvement."
"I would say one thing that they might need to bring in is protection for mobile devices."
"It could have integration with industrial base HMIS or Human Machine Interfaces Solutions."
"The product must make the interface a little more user-friendly."
"The product needs to continue to offer better alerts, in particular around false positives, and it needs to reduce them from happening."
"The AI of CylancePROTECT has room for improvement. I'm on a trial license of SentinelOne, and its AI is much better than what's on CylancePROTECT."
"​Work on the math model. We are catching a lot of false positives, which gets to be a pain at the start of a deployment."
"The security is too week and needs improvement."
"The solution should focus on security, documentation, and simplicity for beginners."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is a little high. It is per user per year."
"I feel it is fairly priced."
"The pricing is a little bit on the expensive side."
"When we first bought it, it was a bit expensive, but it was worth it. The licensing was straightforward."
"It is cost-effective compared to similar solutions. It fits for the small businesses through to the big businesses."
"It has reasonable pricing for the use cases it provides to the company."
"Cortex XDR's pricing is ok."
"The solution is expensive. It's pricing is on a yearly-basis."
"CylancePROTECT's pricing is reasonable, at about €18 per user, per year."
"We pay our license on a yearly basis and have just renewed for two years."
"The solution's pricing is around the same as most EDRs but slightly behind some of the major ones."
"The product cost is about $5, per user, per month."
"​Shop around for sure and be assured the price you pay will be close to other solutions available, but even at a slight mark-up from the other solutions, you are getting real endpoint protection versus nothing more than a cheap security blanket that might keep you warm at night."
"Currently, we have competitive pricing for Cylance, which is affordable enough to consider."
"I think that the price we are paying is good for what it is."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a seven out of ten."
