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.

Cloud-native security has improved real-time threat detection and streamlined daily operations
While CrowdStrike Falcon is strong overall, there are a few areas where it could be improved. First, the user interface can be a bit complex for new users. Sometimes, navigating through different sections and understanding detailed alerts takes time, especially for teams without deep security expertise. The cost is also something to consider, as the features and additional modules can increase pricing, which may be a challenge for smaller teams. Additionally, some integrations with simpler reporting would be helpful. The onboarding process for new users is a bit challenging for beginners to understand all features and workflows in the product. More simplified documentation, step-by-step guides, and real-world examples could help new users get comfortable faster. A structured onboarding or basic training module would be very useful for teams who are new to endpoint security tools. In addition, having more in-product guidance and tooltips within the dashboard could make navigation easier and reduce the learning curve. Overall, improving training resources and onboarding support would make the platform more user-friendly, especially for new users.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I don't have to do much monitoring with it; I don't have to have anybody manually looking at this, it gives us reports, and it lets us know if something needs to be addressed, and we can easily address it."
"The most valuable feature is that you can select remote access of any machine for sandboxing."
"The one feature of Palo Alto Networks Traps that our organization finds most valuable is the App ID service."
"It'll not slow down your system when compared to others."
"We have found in our test Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks to be a very good tool."
"The product's most valuable features are massive user and feature intelligence exploit detection."
"Cortex XDR's most valuable feature is its intelligence-based dashboards."
"The product is very good, it has caught a lot of exploits that most products would not."
"CrowdStrike Falcon's most valuable feature is the fact that it's not getting in the way of our workforce and their workflow."
"There are great security features on offer that are much better than other options in India at this time."
"The managed services are distinguished, responsive, dynamic, flexible, and assertive when taking action."
"The detection is very reliable. Also, OverWatch is a great feature."
"We have a small IT Team, and this allows us to get sleep at night, knowing that someone else is taking care of any incidents that occur."
"Since we deployed CrowdStrike, the network has become much calmer, and we now understand the sources of infections, which helps us prevent them from spreading."
"The most valuable features of CrowdStrike Falcon are the AI in detecting and real-time detections."
"It's given me a level of confidence that my network is secure — the fact that it's not finding anything; however, I am not experiencing the issues that competitors are saying I should be experiencing."
"The most valuable part of the solution is its ransomware backup feature."
"The most valuable features of the solution are DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities."
"I like Seqrite's web protection features and external device control."
"There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management."
"There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management."
"The convenience has been great."
"We were excited about the cloud-based management features of Seqrite and were looking to use the same."
"We found the DLP to be innovative and useful."
 

Cons

"The setup is quite easy. We had appropriate support from the manager. One thing that was missing was the integration part."
"This is a very costly product."
"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."
"If you compare it to SentinelOne, which has more functionalities and detection capabilities on an open platform, the pricing on SentinelOne is far more reasonable and cheaper than Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks."
"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."
"We would also like to have advanced tech protection and email scanning."
"Cortex XDR is trickier to configure than other Palo Alto products. This is one area where we are not so satisfied."
"Improvement could be made in the number of false positives we get, there are more than there needs to be."
"It does take more time to scan than other solutions."
"I would like to see the machine learning feature enhanced."
"CrowdStrike Falcon by itself does not supply in-depth reporting."
"It does take more time to scan than other solutions."
"The solution could improve by providing more types of reports because it's in the detection span you cannot re-export anything. If it could be exported to a CSV file directly there it would help a lot. I currently need to do this by API to get what I need."
"The technical support team often just replies to an issue with a link to an article rather than actually calling back and talking to someone and making sure the problem is solved."
"The malware analysis could be improved, as that's what we use the solution for the most and that change would make it a better EDR tool."
"The solution could improve by providing better security and a cloud base version."
"We would like the solution to have integration with other security solutions so that we can have a single base for monitoring all the security incidents and concerns."
"When we fire any employee connected remotely over the internet, we need a security feature that blocks the system and the device."
"In the next version, they should improve the areas of utility and centralized control."
"User management could be improved."
"The solution needs to improve stability."
"Endpoint Security would be improved by adding DLP."
"When it comes to the support provided by the product, I see that Seqrite is not as mature as the other products in the market."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"If one wishes to work with another team or large number of users at a future point, he must purchase a license for them."
"When we first bought it, it was a bit expensive, but it was worth it. The licensing was straightforward."
"I don't have any issues with the pricing. We are satisfied with the price."
"The pricing is a little high. It is per user per year."
"I did PoCs on products called Cylance and CrowdStrike. Although, I consider these products and they were also good, when it come to cost and budgetary factors, Traps has been proven to be better than the other two products. It is quite cost-effective and delivers all the entire solution which we require."
"I don't like that they have different types of licenses."
"Our license will require renewal in August, after which the maintenance will continue as usual."
"We didn't have to pay any additional fee for the cloud instance. It just came with the renewal, which was nice."
"When it comes to licensing, customers can choose a bundle or select licences based on the specific features they would like access to. This solution comes with premium pricing. It is approximately 20 to 30% more expensive than competing solutions."
"The solution isn't very costly; it's affordable."
"I would like them to further reduce the price, because it is quite pricey at the moment."
"Years ago, when we bought CrowdStrike, you got everything it had. I was a little concerned when they broke this out into a la carte modules where you can buy EDR, Spotlight, etc., picking and choosing off the menu. I was a little worried that the solution would get watered down. However, I realized in my previous organization when we had the full suite that there were a bunch of features in it that we didn't have time to operationalize. So, I warmed up to it. I get the whole, "Look, you can pick and choose. Okay, everybody buys a steak, but do you want mashed potatoes, or do you want lobster mac and cheese?" So, you can pick the sides that you want, so you can buy the solution that you want and operationalize versus paying a lot of money and getting a bunch of things, but not using 60 percent of the tools in the box."
"The cost is usually a challenge in the industry. I think we pay around sixty-eight dollars."
"The price is high in comparison to similar brands."
"We pay between $30-50 per user for a yearly license, which is more expensive than SentinelOne or Bitdefender. However, CrowdStrike gives better value for money."
"We are on an annual subscription for the solution. There are not any additional costs."
"We pay approximately $1,500 for licenses for the solution."
"I give the cost of the solution a seven out of ten."
"Endpoint Security is cheaper than Trend Micro."
"You need to pay for a yearly license for Seqrite Endpoint Security, which is expensive."
"Though I don't think that this is a cheaply priced product, I feel that it is an affordable solution."
"My company needs to purchase a yearly subscription for the licensing costs for Seqrite Endpoint Security."
"The licensing fee is 200 Bangladeshi Taka per client per year."
"We get the tool for around 1200 rupees for a three-year subscription. I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
