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.

Has provided reliable risk management with some room for configuration improvements
In terms of stability, the solution is reliable because there are certain modules, such as advanced threat control and anti-exploit solutions, that are really good. The anti-phishing and content network protection are also very good. It is all about how you configure it. The best part is the risk management; it gives me real relief, and an overall idea of what all my systems are exposed to, where my weaknesses lie, and how I can address them—whether it's misconfigurations, user behavior creating the risk, or the OS software that isn't getting patched, or critical CVs that aren't getting mitigated. Those things have helped me out in a great way.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It'll not slow down your system when compared to others."
"Cortex XDR is a very capable solution for protecting large networks and a lot of endpoints. It's very useful because the automation is very high, and if you combine it with the features on Palo Alto firewalls, it provides very strong protection."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its ability to rapidly detect certain hardware files."
"It is an easy-to-use tool."
"The dashboard is customizable."
"Its ability to react to cyber data attacks is awesome."
"It's a perfect solution. It integrates well into the environment."
"After installing this solution, it identified, blocked, and provided the complete attack chain, which was very helpful."
"It is helpful for protecting our desktops and servers from malware and other threats."
"GravityZone Business Security is an important part of our security stack."
"Offers network security protection. Management and maintenance of this solution is easy."
"Overall, I rate GravityZone ten out of ten for its functionality and support."
"The monitoring dashboards are absolutely amazing, providing a lot of fine details about all activities."
"The most valuable feature of Bitdefender GravityZone Elite is its efficiency in finding threats, such as viruses and ransomware."
"The ease of deployment via our RMM tool has been good."
"The most valuable feature of Bitdefender GravityZone Elite is its ease of use."
"The feature we found most valuable is the AI functionality for maintaining endpoint security, which is very powerful and has been useful over the last year."
"Working as part of our security stack, it has protected us from countless attacks."
"The most valuable features of the solution include the endpoint navigation protection, the protection related to the EMS service, as well as the control and the cloud integration capabilities."
"The solution is very light, works well on our PCs, the dashboard is very good, and we find the pricing to be very affordable."
"I haven't observed any of the instabilities in the solution. It is a stable solution."
"The most valuable aspect of Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is that I have never gotten malware with it."
"Overall, the solution is stable."
"We no longer have to worry about running scans as it is so lightweight and there is no user impact."
 

Cons

"They are charging for Network Traffic Analyzer (NTA) services, so if the per GB data could be provided at a certain level free of cost or at the same cost which the customer is taking for the entire bundle, that would be better."
"I have seen lagging with Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks. There was one time when we faced a threat actor trying to gain access to our system. When our team utilized the tool, we were all on the same dashboard and we faced a lag issue at that time of around five minutes, which was quite significant."
"It is a complex solution to implement."
"One thing that was missing was the integration part. Currently, they don't have out-of-box integration with IBM QRadar, or if they have the integration, the integration doesn't work well."
"It is an enterprise-level solution. Its price could be less expensive."
"There is also no recovery feature; if some endpoint is under attack there must be the possibility of recovering it or restoring it to a normal state."
"I don't like that they have different types of licenses. For example, if users select a license, they think they will have all the platforms they need to improve their network or security. But after some time, Palo Alto Networks changed their licensing, and some of the features that, for example, were free at the beginning now have a cost. I think the integration can be improved. For example, a lot of tools are just integrated through APIs."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks can improve mobile integration to allow access to the console."
"When you have to change some of the settings, the initial setup can become complicated."
"The support from Bitdefender GravityZone Elite could be better."
"Upgrades are heavy and require back up, making you feel like you're doing a fresh installation of this solution. Configuration can also be quite tedious if you want it to be configured based on your needs."
"Another observation was that we have disabled all the external media via GravityZone Business Security policies, but when connecting a device such as a phone, it was getting detected, and users were able to read and write files."
"Technical support could always be improved."
"The reporting functionality is quite minimal, and there are no alerts available. We are missing email encryption capabilities. We’ve also faced a few minor issues with the solution’s scalability."
"The support from Bitdefender GravityZone Elite could be better."
"While GravityZone is comprehensive, it can sometimes prevent the execution of local-made programs, resulting in false alarms."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection needs to focus on how they can widen their area of scope by not just being an antivirus tool anymore. The shortcoming in the customization area of the tool needs improvement."
"Webroot used to be really good when they first came out, but now they've completely fallen behind, sadly."
"Unified threat management (UTM) integration."
"It needs to improve the problems with the faster connection, and have a huge reduction in false positives."
"I believe that Webroot Business Endpoint Protection should offer a more modern UI."
"I did notice that my OS slowed down, but I don't know if that's due to Webroot."
"We need more control over when upgrades to the app are rolled out."
"We need more control over when upgrades to the app are rolled out."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I am using the Community edition."
"The price of the solution could be reduced. I have customers that have voiced that the solution is good for the value but if I want to sell more of the solution the price reduction would help."
"Very costly product."
"It is cost-effective compared to similar solutions. It fits for the small businesses through to the big businesses."
"Its pricing is kind of in line with its competitors and everybody else out there."
"It is "expensive" and flexible."
"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."
"The solution is expensive. It's pricing is on a yearly-basis."
"We pay approximately $80,000 for a three-year subscription."
"We pay approximately $1 per device per month for Bitdefender GravityZone Elite. There is no additional cost for the solution."

"The pricing is within the market price range compared to other solutions. It's quite affordable."

"Our strategy was to overestimate the complexity and cost. It turned out that Webroot's assurance was justified."
"The solution doesn't cost too much. It's about 30 Euros a year for each endpoint. It's pretty affordable for us and for many other companies."
