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.

Integrated device protection has secured bios-level threats and preserves user performance
The features of Dell Trusted Device powered by CrowdStrike Falcon and Intel vPro that I appreciate most are the real-time analytics in CrowdStrike and the ability to detect anomalies in the computer at the BIOS level, which is excellent to have. You would not normally see that with standard antivirus or regular security software; it would not integrate with the BIOS, but the fact that it does means that you get an enhanced layer of protection with CrowdStrike, more than you would see with another product. My perception of chip-level recovery is that it is a beautiful thing. Normally you are dependent on the OS for recovery actions, but in this case, you do not need that because it happens at the chip level. It happens out of band, before the OS is booted; you can make recovery choices, and that is extremely important. You always need an out of band solution, and on end user devices especially, if that is possible, that changes the whole landscape. Normally out of band is only for server-level devices, but this changes that; this adds an extra layer of protection that you would not normally see. I view the critical feature of Advanced Memory Scanning by CrowdStrike as incredible; the fact that it can actively scan memory without any performance hit on the PC or server devices is remarkable. Previously, in years before 2020, we would see a performance hit from this type of software, but the fact that CrowdStrike integrated with Dell does not cause any performance hit on the end user or the overall performance of the computer is an amazing thing. It is probably the best performing antivirus software I have actually seen.

Experienced weak security checks and increased system load with limited control
Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response is not up to the mark compared to what I have seen from earlier products. I was using CrowdStrike, and Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response is not up to the mark compared to CrowdStrike and other products. Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response sometimes seems to allow certain files which should not be allowed on its own. I trust Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response to check the files, but I cannot sit and check all the files that are coming in. Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response has its own weaknesses. Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response slows the system slightly. It uses more resources than what CrowdStrike does. When any attack happens or something is happening with other products I am using, Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response stops certain things. However, it does not take me to the file, and it is not user-friendly.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"After deploying Traps, we saw the performance of the network improve by 65 to 70 percent."
"The good thing about the product is that it's always scanning."
"The solution doesn't need a high level of technical training."
"Based on my experience, I would recommend Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks to other people."
"What I like about Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is that it is a comprehensive solution that contains everything the organization may need when using endpoints."
"Palo Alto is the core of the security infrastructure in the environment."
"The product is mostly automated, and we do not have to make decisions, because all the decisions are made by the product itself and we are not required to create any custom policies since the policies that are created are well defined in the product itself."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is specifically designed to prevent zero-day attacks and is part of an ecosystem of Palo Alto, providing customers with a long-term vision to modify and redesign how security is applied in their company."
"If you are considering protecting your Dell endpoints and your Dell infrastructure with CrowdStrike, it is a no-brainer."
"The fact that CrowdStrike and Dell have gotten to a point where it has no user effect, or virtually zero user effect, is absolutely game-changing."
"Dell Trusted Device powered by CrowdStrike Falcon and Intel vPro has helped us immensely."
"The features of Dell Trusted Device powered by CrowdStrike Falcon and Intel vPro that I like the most include its ability to recover quickly."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"We have a concept of working from home. Most endpoints are not in the domain. It is our first line of defense. While we had Kaspersky deployed, it gave good insight into the upcoming challenge or threat."
"Kaspersky offers more visible and comprehensive features compared to other products."
"One of the good features is the provider's Faulting capability. If any of our systems detect malware, we can check the behavior of the malware by sending it to Kaspersky's sandbox environment. This helps us assess how destructive the malware is. After analyzing it, we can create use cases and protection measures based on that behavior. So, this is the best feature of Kaspersky."
"It downloads essential security patches that are valuable for my PC."
"Kaspersky EDR is far superior to other products. It gives detailed information about malware, geolocation, and more. Also, the agent itself is very lightweight compared to other products. The packages and updates were quite small in size, just a few KBs."
"One of the most valuable aspects of Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solutions is their ability to detect and respond to spam and viruses in their early stages."
"The advanced detection features are valuable."
 

Cons

"The MAC agent is not as robust feature-wise as the PC version."
"It should support more mobile operating systems. That is one of the cons of their infrastructure right now."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks can improve mobile integration to allow access to the console."
"Cortex XDR could be improved with more GUI features."
"The server sometimes stops continuously to check things so it would be helpful to receive access updates or technical reasons."
"The solution eats memory of the computer, unlike anything I've ever seen."
"The downsides of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks are that in many incidents, when I enter the causality chain, there are numerous logs."
"It would be good to have a better way to search for a file within the UI."
"The biggest thing I would do to improve Dell Trusted Device powered by CrowdStrike Falcon and Intel vPro is add that agentic AI to it at the highest level and allow it to start to deploy and do things ourselves."
"The room for improvement that I would recommend to make it a 10 is that it might be beneficial to scale out to include servers."
"I think it's just a normal tool; compared to other market EDRs, this is a very poor product."
"The main issue was compatibility with the cloud itself. The CPU usage immediately spiked, causing the machines to hang and sometimes even forcing server or computer restarts."
"Enhancing user-friendliness should be a priority."
"One of the main areas where the tool could improve is its integration capabilities. For example, I find it challenging to integrate it with other solutions. It would be helpful if the tool could make it more open to integration with other tools."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response is not up to the mark compared to CrowdStrike and other products."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response needs vast resources on the central node. Not all maintenance tasks are in the GUI, so we often use commands. The lack of documentation for these processes means we frequently reach out to support, open tickets, and run complex CLI commands. It's not the most straightforward process. It should also improve stability."
"There is room for improvement in the support."
"The solution must provide better security."
 

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."
"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."
"The tool's price is moderate."
"Very costly product."
"If one wishes to work with another team or large number of users at a future point, he must purchase a license for them."
"The price of the product is not very economical."
"It has a yearly renewal."
"The pricing seems fair, and I do like the licensing model. You use wherever they are, and it is elastic."
