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.

Ransomware protection has made data security reliable and efficient

There are not many disadvantages, but they need to do some work on DLP integration. Support could be improved. Sometimes it is difficult to find exact solutions, and people occasionally get stuck, resulting in delayed responses. The main areas for improvement are support responsiveness and the additional enhancement with the DLP integration.

A cost-effective security solution for endpoint protection

The initial setup is complex. It is rare to see an effective endpoint protection system that does not require some effort. It is neither on the cloud nor on-premises. You deploy it on every endpoint or server, irrespective of perimeter. You must use a deployment tool unless you prefer to do it manually on every endpoint or server. We used an automation tool to deploy it. Since we had MSI with us. We had to verify that everything worked, but it didn't take more than two weeks for 1000 endpoints.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution's stability is generally good."

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks has helped lighten the load of our security analysts because it was the major tool that we were using and the one we utilized most."

"The positive impacts I see from Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks include a complete 360-degree view of our security posture altogether, being a uniform platform where we are ingesting logs from multiple resources."

"Based on my experience, I would recommend Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks to other people."

"This software helps us understand any issues that may arise when someone is not at work."

"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."

"I like that the product has behavior-based detection which offers many benefits over signature-based detection."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"It gives you a really good balanced portfolio to work with for your machines, not just on the malware protection and the firewall protection, but the virtual container, the ability to manage endpoints, the ability to manage patches."

"The product’s valuable feature is the remote control station."

"Overall, I would rate Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection a nine out of ten."

"It really protects and does its job. It totally blocked every attack attempt, and no attack attempt was successful."

"If you get attacked, your files will be safe, and you can work on your infected files."

"The tool is an open-source EDR with antivirus features. It also has remote support and patch management."

"It is a very stable solution, making it an excellent product."

More Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection pros

"This product really is the best solution for this security issue."

"Nyotron protects your users and does not acquire any threat intelligence."

"First of all, it does the job. It prevents harm to the operating system. Also, the visibility it gives to the user and to the administrator is very good."

Cons

"There is a severe gap in functionality between Windows, Linux, and Mac versions."

"Every 30 or 40 days, there's a new version and we need to go and make sure our customer's laptops are upgraded."

"To jump from the partner to Palo Alto directly was challenging."

"The complexity and confusion regarding product variants, such as XDR, Forexiant, and Forexon, must be addressed."

"The dashboard could use some significant improvement, just making it more useful with more information. It has a limited amount of information right now. It is customizable, but I'd love to see a better out-of-box dashboard."

"In general, the price could be more competitive."

"Basically, they don't provide customer support tools just to investigate the logs."

"While using Cortex, I noticed some aspects that could be improved, such as increasing the synchronization speed between XDR and Xnor."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"The menu could be cleaned up."

"They need to just modernize the infrastructure with something that is next-generation. We have recently moved to SentinelOne. It had been doing good for us for a while, but we needed something modern with new technology."

"The quality of the analysis and the product dashboard is a bit low compared to other providers."

"Would be good to have a better understanding of what it is that you've got in quarantine."

"Some competing products outperform Comodo in this area."

"The solution's online documentation needs to be fine-tuned. It is not up to which solution currently has. There is some inconsistency in the knowledge present. I would like to see MDM in the solution's future releases."

"There could be MDRM features added to the product."

"They need to enhance the performance of the agents. Currently, the performance is going low when the agent starts a full scan."

More Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection cons

"The solution should be available on Linux and other platforms, including mobile platforms such as Android and iOS."

"The main feature that is missing is to have the same solution on servers."

"The main feature that is missing is to have the same solution on servers. Currently it's only protecting the client side, not the server. If they would add the server in the same solution, that would be great."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We didn't have to pay any additional fee for the cloud instance. It just came with the renewal, which was nice."

"It's the most expensive solution, but features-wise, it's quite strong. It's very good for protection, so the results are very good in the case of protection. I would rate it a two out of ten in terms of pricing."

"Our license will require renewal in August, after which the maintenance will continue as usual."

"Cortex XDR’s pricing is very reasonable."

"Every customer has to pay for a license because it doesn't work with what you get from a managed services provider."

"We pay about $50,000 USD per year for a bundle that includes Cortex XDR."

"Its pricing is kind of in line with its competitors and everybody else out there."

"I don't recall what the cost was, but it wasn't really that expensive."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pricing and cost advice

"It was about 35 or 40 bucks per year for the endpoint."

"Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection is inexpensive."

"The price of this product should be lower."

"I rate the pricing a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive. The product can be considered fairly cheap."

"It's a cost-effective solution"

"The product is pricey."

"I rate Comodo’s pricing a four out of ten."

"Generally, the cost is between $16 and $19 per endpoint."
