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

"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."

"It is a simple platform to use."

"We use it for malicious connections from malicious websites, to identify payloads that might be inside the traffic, to identify malicious processes or bugs that are running on the network, and any activities that tend to lead to data infiltration."

"The live terminal is probably the best thing ever. It gives you the access to get straight onto any machine."

"The tool is easy to use."

"Their XDR agent and their behavioral indicators of compromise (BIOC) are pretty nice. Their managed threat hunting is also pretty nice. They also have WildFire, which is a service for actively looking for malware. It's quite useful."

"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."

"We have a complete overview of all our PCs and it's very easy to handle and to use the interface. It has a lot of benefits for us."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"My advice to others is this is a good solution that does not require a lot of attention."

"We use CrowdStrike Falcon for discovery when anything goes wrong because it gives us a full history of what's happening."

"The platform is very scalable."

"CrowdStrike Falcon is able to identify threats based on processes, rather than looking at signatures and this is what I like about this solution."

"The solution offers great stability."

"The most valuable features of CrowdStrike Falcon include Falcon Fusion workflows and endpoint detection capabilities."

"The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon is its accuracy."

"The initial setup was straightforward."

More CrowdStrike Falcon pros

"The update process and policy control are good."

"The solution effectively detects malicious files and blocks sign-ins."

"The most valuable part of the solution is its ransomware backup feature."

"The overall performance of the server and the dashboard are the most interesting aspects of the solution."

"The solution's current features include antivirus, web filtering, file activity monitoring, PAM, firewall, IDS/IPS, and DLP. Though I'm not familiar with the whole solution, it is good."

"The setup process was easy for our remote clients and us as well."

"Seqrite Endpoint Security provides external protection in terms of hard drives."

"The most valuable features of the solution are DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities."

More Seqrite Endpoint Security pros

Cons

"It's very time-consuming to log support issues and the people that answer the tickets aren't very knowledgeable."

"Dashboards do not allow everyone to see what's happening."

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks could improve by adding a sandbox feature to better compete with their competitors which have it."

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

"It automatically detects security issues. It should be able to protect our network devices while operating autonomously."

"The dashboard is the area that needs to improve so that we can have the ability to drill down without having to go elsewhere to verify results."

"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."

"They've been having some issues with updating their endpoint agents, and it has been quite frustrating."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"The skillsets needed to run CrowdStrike Falcon are extensive if you want to get the most value out of the tool."

"CrowdStrike Falcon could improve if it became an XDR. When we look only to an end-point, we lost the context of the environment. I know it's another line of design of the product. However, if CrowdStrike becomes an XDR, it could be very good."

"Forensic controls have room for improvement."

"CrowdStrike should provide better visibility in its reporting. There should be more forensic details about detected threats."

"Any kind of integration that you want to do, such as using the API to connect to a SIEM, is complex and it will be expensive to do."

"The price of CrowdStrike Falcon could be better. It is very expensive, we pay approximately $900 per month for the licenses."

"I would like to see a little bit more in the offline scanning ability."

"It would be nice if the dashboard had some more information upfront, and looked a little better."

More CrowdStrike Falcon cons

"When we fire any employee connected remotely over the internet, we need a security feature that blocks the system and the device."

"The cost of the solution can be improved."

"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."

"In the next version, they should improve the areas of utility and centralized control."

"User management is not that good currently, and so we have trouble with handling user management."

"The solution could integrate with other products to provide a comprehensive protection strategy."

"Endpoint Security would be improved by adding DLP."

"The product or service could be improved by incorporating SIEM integrations to enable the collection of logs."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's way too expensive, but security is expensive. You pay for your licensing, and then you pay for someone to monitor the stuff."

"Our customers have expressed that the price is high."

"When we first bought it, it was a bit expensive, but it was worth it. The licensing was straightforward."

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is an expensive solution."
