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.

Support at a security firm with 51-200 employees
Remote Access Security Reinforced with Real-Time Device Protection
Dashboard customization is needed for improvements. While the centralized management is strong, the dashboard could offer more flexibility. It would be helpful to tailor views for different roles, such as IT or security support. Regarding needed improvements, custom report building could be enhanced. Current reports are informative, and a drag-and-drop builder would allow teams to create tailored views for compliance, executive summaries, or operational metrics. For further improvements, enhancing threat simulation and testing would be valuable. Building a threat simulation tool and adding native capabilities to simulate phishing, malware, or ransomware scenarios will help teams validate protection and train users without relying on third-party tools.

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

"Traps is quite a stable product. Once it was properly deployed and configured, you have nothing to be worried about."
"In one single alert, we are getting the network telemetry, endpoint telemetry, email security telemetry, and proxy telemetry all in one single ticket, making it very easy."
"These days it's machine-learning technology and behavior-based analytics features that make us more secure."
"The one feature of Palo Alto Networks Traps that our organization finds most valuable is the App ID service."
"Once you become familiar with it, Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is a more powerful tool and I would say that I prefer it over MDE because it is a stronger tool for me."
"The live terminal is probably the best thing ever. It gives you the access to get straight onto any machine."
"Palo Alto is the core of the security infrastructure in the environment."
"Its ability to react to cyber data attacks is awesome. That is pretty much the use of it. What blows your mind is the ability to access your assets remotely and see what is actually going on with them. You can not only see them in a console. You can also react very rapidly to your assets that are compromised."
"The overall features and data loss prevention makes it a valuable product in every way."
"Endpoint security protects networks from unauthorized programs, viruses and malware, and allows you to control the network by blocking devices that you do not want to have access to it, for example by file extensions or using the device’s ID."
"SandBlast Agent is always working in the background collecting sensitive data, forensics, and notifying users whenever there is a chance of a brute-force attack into our systems. Otherwise, it has been protecting our data at various geographies along with the endpoints that we set up on the cloud. They have been able to filter out or thwart any attacks from the very word, "Go," and make our work very safe and smooth."
"We now feel more secure with our PCs, even more with the non-technical persons."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint has positively impacted my organization by significantly reducing successful malware and ransomware incidents, giving us much fewer infections to deal with, and it has also freed up security team time by catching threats automatically, allowing us to focus more on proactive tasks than on cleanup tasks, which is the main improvement for our team."
"The application runs very fast and does not affect the performance speed of the device where it is installed."
"The platform's most valuable features are the ability to build API, which meets our business requirements, and the VPN client, which provides VPN access from a single client."
"What stands out to me most about the best features Check Point Harmony Endpoint offers are the data cost management features and strong policy that empowers user devices with central management and visibility."
"Seqrite has significantly reduced the time it takes to detect and respond."
"The solution installs very easily."
 

Cons

"The deployment is pretty hard."
"We would also like to have advanced tech protection and email scanning."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is a strong tool, but it is true that digesting information sometimes makes the tool go a little bit slower."
"The solution should offer more dashboards and they should be better customized."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks could improve its user interface, which is more complicated compared to competitors such as SentinelOne."
"A potential area of improvement for Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is the cost."
"The playbooks could be improved to include more functionalities or actions."
"When it comes to core analysis, and security analysis, Cortex needs to provide more information."
"I would like to see is this same solution being able to link with the services of different corporate networks as if they were a remote access VPN extension and thus not require additional licenses."
"I would like to see more automation."
"The interface could be more user-friendly."
"One aspect that could see enhancement is the user interface."
"Creating tailored reports for different departments or compliance needs in Check Point Harmony Endpoint takes extra effort."
"Some users have reported high resource consumption, leading to performance issues on devices with limited hardware capability."
"Support's service and the response times can be improved. The triaging of the tickets takes a long time and the tickets are only resolved with escalations."
"Other than that, the only other thing I could complain about was that they did this process where they did some type of certificate update on the backend of all of their staff solutions. That created downtime for our VPN clients and they didn't notify us of the certificate update."
"The solution should focus on security, documentation, and simplicity for beginners."
"The security is too week and needs improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Traps pays for itself within the first 16 months of a three-year subscription. This is attributed to OPEX savings, as security teams spent less time trying to identify and isolate malware for analysis as a result of a reduction in malware incidents, false positives, and breach avoidance."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is an expensive solution."
"The price is on the higher side, but it's okay."
"The price of the solution is high for the license and in general."
"It has reasonable pricing for the use cases it provides to the company."
"Licensing for Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR can be costly, especially when it comes to a hundred users. A license is required for each user, and the subscription must be renewed on a yearly basis."
"Cortex XDR’s pricing is very reasonable."
"We didn't have to pay any additional fee for the cloud instance. It just came with the renewal, which was nice."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint is an expensive solution. My company's clients pay INR 1,000 for each user of the product, while Check Point also provides an option to pay INR 2,300 for three years."
"One of the key factors that made us go with this solution was the pricing. On the licensing part, there was an initial complementary set of licenses offered in the initial onboarding package, either 15 or 20. Then, we had some complementary licenses in the initial purchase of the package. That was pretty useful."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"Price-wise, the product is affordable. There are no additional costs apart from the licensing charges that are attached to the product."
"The tool’s cost has increased by almost 300% in two years."
"In comparison to other software solutions available on the market, it comes at a higher price point."
"Check Point Antivirus is the most economical solution."
"We pay roughly 80,000 Swedish krona per year. When it comes to the firewall, it's roughly 150,000 Swedish krona yearly. There's also maintenance, of course, which is roughly 10,000 krona per month."
