Featured Reviews

Sukkanta Banerjee - PeerSpot reviewer
A way for users to manage their credentials on the go using a stable, and scalable app
I give the solution an eight out of ten. It's hard to comment on the number of users because the feature is completely for corporate employees who have Blackberry devices, so it's hard to track how many users there are. I advise making your decision to use the solution based on the usage in the company or the demand of the business, which you are running based on the demand.
NiteshSharma - PeerSpot reviewer
Automated threat response and behavioral control improve security measures
I recommend adding a data loss prevention (DLP) solution to Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks. The inclusion of this feature would allow the application of DLP policies alongside antivirus policies via a single agent and console, making it more competitive as other OEMs often offer DLP solutions as part of their antivirus products. Additionally, multi-tenancy and multi-cloud features are not available and should be considered for inclusion.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is very easy to set up."
"The mail is without a doubt the most valuable."
"Since they've done their most recent update, the ease to isolate endpoints is valuable. If we find one where there is a virus on it, we can easily isolate it. We don't even have to contact the user. We don't have to manually take them off the network. We can easily isolate them."
"The most valuable feature is that you can select remote access of any machine for sandboxing."
"One of the things that I enjoy the most is using policy extensions. It's like having host firewalls to control USB connections. I think it's a wonderful tool to restrict use when connecting to our computers. Another important tool is Home Insights. That is an add-on to the Cortex solution. I like that because we can see all the vulnerabilities in the environment and control what assets are connected to our network."
"We can use Cortex XDR to get the entire graph of the incidents from source to destination, and we can take remedial action."
"The solution doesn't need a high level of technical training."
"The product has an intuitive dashboard."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its ability to rapidly detect certain hardware files."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is easy to use and does not consume a lot of hardware resources."
 

Cons

"The user interface could be improved. It was clunky at times."
"The solution can be improved by adding more features in which the content could be synced."
"It is not easy to sell Cortex XDR, not because it isn't a good tool. Its marketing needs to be improved."
"There is a severe gap in functionality between Windows, Linux, and Mac versions. For example all folder restriction settings are Windows only. Traps 5.0+ does not have SAML / LDAP integration."
"Being able to filter the events to see those that are related to the actual alert would save time spent by the engineer."
"There are some false positives. What our guys would have liked is that it would have been easier to manipulate as soon as they found a false positive that they knew was a false positive. How to do so was not obvious. Some people complained about it. The interface, the ESM, is not user-friendly."
"When it comes to malware files, it should be a little quick because, at times, it would give a wrong result in the sense of what it might be on malware, even if it still might be a normal one."
"They've been having some issues with updating their endpoint agents, and it has been quite frustrating."
"The product's pricing could be better."
"The setup is quite easy. We had appropriate support from the manager. One thing that was missing was the integration part."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I am not able to remember the amount, but users have to subscribe for a certain amount, so once they subscribe, the amount gets sent."
"We had a licensing package of $500,000 for three years."
"Every customer has to pay for a license because it doesn't work with what you get from a managed services provider."
"The solution is expensive. It's pricing is on a yearly-basis."
"The cost depends on your chosen license type, like Pro or other licenses."
"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."
"We pay about $50,000 USD per year for a bundle that includes Cortex XDR."
"It has reasonable pricing for the use cases it provides to the company."
"The price of the product is not very economical."
"Compared to CrowdStrike, Cortex XDR is an expensive solution."
