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.

Has consistently delivered double-layer protection and simplified policy application while needing mobile compatibility and better MacOS support
A significant limitation is that SonicWall Capture Client cannot be installed on smartphones, as there is no mobile version available.Occasionally, the Sentinel engine becomes unresponsive, particularly when customers do not properly restart or shutdown their systems. This requires a hard restart after installation to resolve the issue. Installation on Mac OS can be challenging, requiring multiple attempts due to version compatibility requirements. We must ensure the SonicWall Capture Client version is stable for Mac OS. The RAM usage is higher compared to SentinelOne, utilizing approximately 150 megabytes of memory. This is a common concern from customers, and reducing RAM consumption would be beneficial.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"From the Palo Alto side, whatever they buy, they integrate that really well into their integration suite, and that makes a massive difference."
"When the pandemic started, Palo Alto came up with many solutions, which helped with the quick shift from on-premises to the cloud."
"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."
"I recognize that Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is one of the best products in its category regarding capabilities."
"Cortex is the best tool for endpoint detection, and I have used it to verify hashes or domains to identify malicious activity, trigger playbooks that automate and gather endpoint logs, block malicious processes, and update incident tickets, showcasing end-to-end processes with automation in investigation and reducing the analysis workflow."
"It is a simple platform to use."
"The policy configuration is great, the granularity of policies that are available is very helpful, it is straightforward to set up, and it has pretty much everything we need and works well within the Palo Alto ecosystem."
"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."
"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."
"If you are considering protecting your Dell endpoints and your Dell infrastructure with CrowdStrike, it is a no-brainer."
"The features of Dell Trusted Device powered by CrowdStrike Falcon and Intel vPro that I like the most include its ability to recover quickly."
"Dell Trusted Device powered by CrowdStrike Falcon and Intel vPro has helped us immensely."
"Overall, what I love the most about SonicWall Capture Client is its management console. SonicWall Capture Client also has the intelligence to tell you which computer is online, what OS it uses, etc. I also found the rollback feature and SentinelOne integration valuable in SonicWall Capture Client. Rollback is a powerful feature of the solution because it's similar to locking your endpoint during an attack, so you won't have to pay the hackers, particularly during ransomware attacks. That feature in SonicWall Capture Client allows you to get back your endpoint or make your endpoint right again after an attack. I also like that it isn't complex to remove the engine error from the endpoint because you only have to provide the security key from SonicWall Capture Client, so the process is simple. It's not complex."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"SonicWall Capture Client has a serial number to connect to your firewall."
"SonicWall Capture Client offers a cost-effective solution that's cheaper compared to other vendors like CrowdStrike."
"The threat protection feature of SonicWall Capture Client is most valuable."
"The solution serves as a very stable platform."
"SonicWall Capture Client's scalability is nice."
"The product’s interface is easy to use."
 

Cons

"Whenever the tool releases a new version when deploying the product across the organization, I feel like there are some disturbances in the CPU usage after upgrading the tool to the latest version."
"Limited remote connection."
"We had a problem with getting our older endpoints up to date, but their newest updates have been really good. I've been pleased with it in terms of what our needs are. It's doing what we want it to do."
"We would also like to have advanced tech protection and email scanning."
"The deployment is pretty hard."
"The configuration could be simplified. I would like to see better protection, specifically to protect email applications."
"It automatically detects security issues. It should be able to protect our network devices while operating autonomously."
"For working with the solution, you only really need a web browser, however, we've found that working on Chrome, for example, is horrible."
"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."
"They should improve their user interface."
"It takes technical support too long to resolve an issue."
"Occasionally, the Sentinel engine becomes unresponsive, particularly when customers do not properly restart or shutdown their systems."
"The biggest issue with SonicWall Capture Client is network latency."
"The implementation is not easy."
"An area for improvement in SonicWall Capture Client is TenantCloud support. Suppose you want to implement SonicWall Capture Client. You'll have to register it on MySonicWall. Then once your SonicWall Capture Client license expires and you don't want to renew it, you can't delete it from your MySonicWall account, so that's an area for improvement."
"Technical support from SonicWall has room for improvement. While their escalation process is understandable, it can be time-consuming as all logs need to be provided multiple times across different service levels."
"The vulnerability reports need to be better. Windows Defender detected some issues that SonicWall Capture Client couldn't."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Its pricing is kind of in line with its competitors and everybody else out there."
"The return on investment is from the user side because we have seen the performance of it increase the delivery time of the product if we are using too many web-based and on-premise applications. In indirect ways, we saw the return of investment in terms of performance and user satisfaction increase."
"The solution is expensive. It's pricing is on a yearly-basis."
"We pay about $50,000 USD per year for a bundle that includes Cortex XDR."
"The price of the product is not very economical."
"Our customers have expressed that the price is high."
"The tool's price is moderate."
"I am using the Community edition."
Information not available
"You have to pay for the solution, and a lot of customers do not want to pay."
"Here in Indonesia, SonicWall Capture Client costs five hundred thousand rupiahs for every endpoint. If I'm correct, you only have to pay the licensing fee, and there's no additional fee. To me, the pricing for SonicWall Capture Client is four out of five."
"The product is very expensive."
