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 threat detection has improved incident investigations and now reduces breach risk
We have covered most of the features over the past three years and look forward to discovering more as we work closely with the ExtraHop technical team, who are open to sharing what they have developed. Pricing is on the higher side, typically based on load, volume of traffic, and deployment scale. The advanced detection capabilities provide significant value in reducing investigation time, making the licensing and pricing acceptable for larger organizations. ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360 has undeniably improved our security posture, reduced manual investigation efforts, and facilitated fast threat detection mechanisms, which all help prevent costly potential breaches in enterprise environments. ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360's SaaS environment is well-suited for cloud, on-premises, and hybrid environments, effectively addressing real-life scenarios involving east-west and north-south traffic. The platform is recommended for large organizations in need of comprehensive detection capabilities. I would rate this product overall as an 8 out of 10.

Unified threat detection has improved investigations and now speeds up incident response
While Trellix XDR is a strong platform overall, there are a few areas where it could be improved. The initial setup and configuration can be complex, especially for organizations with diverse environments. Some additional advanced features also have a learning curve and may require extra training for security teams to fully utilize them. Moreover, reporting and dashboard customization could be more flexible, allowing users to create highly customized views and reports more easily. There are also areas that could optimize detection surveys. Addressing these areas would further enhance the overall experience and operational effectiveness. One additional improvement would be deeper integration with a wider range of third-party security tools and cloud platforms. While Trellix XDR integrates with many solutions, simplifying the integration management would help organizations with complex security ecosystems. I would like to see more out-of-the-box reports and executive-level dashboards that make it easier to communicate security metrics to leadership. Finally, continuous enhancement to automation and AI-driven threat prioritization would further reduce analysts' workflow and improve response effectiveness. Overall, these are areas that need refinement rather than being major concerns, as the platform still delivers strong security and operational value.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Traps is quite a stable product. Once it was properly deployed and configured, you have nothing to be worried about."
"It has absolutely improved the way our organization functions, we are more secure, it is giving us more peace of mind, and it has found malicious activity happening on our endpoints that probably would not have been detected if we didn't have it."
"The best feature of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is that it collects logs from different sections such as the endpoint, the network, and the cloud, making it easy to investigate alerts, collect some of the investigation packages related to the infected machines, and provide live response."
"The protection offered by this product is good, as is the endpoint reporting."
"Based on my experience, I would recommend Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks to other people."
"When the pandemic started, Palo Alto came up with many solutions, which helped with the quick shift from on-premises to the cloud."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks has changed the way my security team detects, investigates, and responds to threats, as we are able to see the files, unwanted files, unsecured files, and unauthorized files, so we are quarantining them."
"Threat identification and detection are the most valuable features of this solution."
"It is scalable."
"Their technical support is more effective and of better quality than other competitors."
"ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360 has positively impacted my organization by helping us detect abnormal activity on our network that we could not detect through our SIEM or XDR platform."
"It stands out for its intuitive and efficient user interface, robust detection capabilities with minimal false positives, and the ability to handle encrypted traffic, making it a valuable asset for network security and management."
"It is very easy to collect and handle data in ExtraHop Reveal(X) Cloud. Integration with Big Data is also easy. Many of our customers integrate it with Big Data platforms like Splunk or Elastic. It is also easy to handle and easy to understand."
"ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360 has undeniably improved our security posture, reduced manual investigation efforts, and facilitated fast threat detection mechanisms, which all help prevent costly potential breaches in enterprise environments."
"Since implementing Trellix XDR, we have seen improvement in our threat detection and incident response capability."
"Because Trellix gives us multiple types of modules, we are using a single ePO console for multiple solutions including application control, DLP, and XDR."
"Trellix XDR has impacted my organization positively as it's a security solution that protects us from threats."
"Trellix XDR has impacted my organization positively because time was definitely saved because of the automated response, and the positive impact was definitely there in terms of both time saved and people being cut down from the team to have a more efficient and cost-saving team."
"Trellix XDR has positively impacted my organization in a couple of major ways: The efficiency of the SOC team has increased, and incident investigation speed has improved significantly."
"Since implementing Trellix XDR, I have noticed positive impacts on my organization."
"The best features of Trellix XDR are the in-depth analysis it provides."
"The analytics assessment and flexibility of the platform are valuable."
 

Cons

"Cortex XDR could improve its sales support team, including better commission structures and referral programs."
"Cortex XDR is trickier to configure than other Palo Alto products. This is one area where we are not so satisfied."
"However, if you do not have Palo Alto in your environment, you are paying these additional services just for Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, so it is not a cost-effective solution."
"Enhancing UI simplicity and playbook flexibility are areas that could benefit from more low-code automation options for smoother integrations."
"Being able to filter the events to see those that are related to the actual alert would save time spent by the engineer."
"It is not easy to sell Cortex XDR, not because it isn't a good tool. Its marketing needs to be improved."
"I recommend adding a data loss prevention (DLP) solution to Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks. The inclusion of this feature would allow the application of DLP policies alongside antivirus policies via a single agent and console, making it more competitive as other OEMs often offer DLP solutions as part of their antivirus products."
"Managing the product should be easier."
"A drawback includes bucket storage limitations for payload data, necessitating timely extraction for thorough investigations."
"One challenge with ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360 is its pricing, which tends to be comparatively high in the marketplace."
"Their professional service can be improved."
"They can include integration with SAP. Currently, no vendor provides network performance monitoring in the SAP market. It is a very big market. We have around 400 customers for SAP in Korea. In the USA, there are more than 10,000 customers."
"I would like to see ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360 improved by integrating XDR features with NDR."
"There needs to be more support."
"The platform should enhance compatibility with all other SIEM solutions."
"The CPU utilization is very high with Trellix XDR; we are getting multiple types of CPU utilization from the EPP solution, with the EPP agent reaching as high as 80 percent CPU utilization, which creates big challenges for us."
"The initial setup and configuration can be complex, especially for organizations with diverse environments."
"Technical support is crucial, especially when facing critical issues. It's rated six out of ten. Improvements are needed in the support sector, with a focus on providing expert assistance during production periods."
"The EdgeGear solution is an area that requires attention, specifically regarding AI solutions and intelligence features."
"The main area regarding Trellix XDR improvement is that setup and tuning can be complex because it requires a skilled analyst based on utilization."
"Trellix XDR should get involved in AI security itself."
"Customer support is average, depending on who the call gets to, escalation, and how quickly they respond."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice
