Find out what your peers are saying about Cisco, Infoblox, TitanHQ and others in Domain Name System (DNS) Security."The most valuable features of Infoblox Advanced DNS Protection are the services, DHCP, and debugging. Additionally, we can use APIs and ansible scripts."
"The most valuable feature of Infoblox Advanced DNS Protection is its performance and visibility."
"Grid high availability technology ensured network reliability, resilient network services, failover, recovery, and seamless maintenance."
"The security of the solution is perfect. It's very good at protecting us from attacks."
"Infoblox offers granularity and advanced DNS protection to mitigate DNS attacks. It's a very secure solution."
"DHCP is a basic service, and they've been doing it for years, so it's mature and stable."
"The solution's user interface is very smooth compared to other products."
"Centralized management of DNS, DHCP, and IPAM helped us a lot in simplifying and automating the management of network and services."
"The performance is good."
"The solution improved the consistency of our security controls and the BCP. There has been a 20 percent reduction in TCO. Prisma Access also enabled us to deliver better applications by centralizing security management."
"Monitoring is the most valuable feature because we can easily monitor all kinds of stuff coming over the network. We can check the dashboard and work accordingly."
"It is easy to use, easy to integrate, and is stable. It's scalable as well."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to join your network and provide access through the VPN."
"The initial setup is very straightforward."
"The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that it offers stability and scalability while being a very secure product."
"It's quite reliable and performs well for users."
"The service monitoring information could be simplified of this appliance and the information displayed on the dashboards could be improved. I have not found one dashboard to be perfect. For example, in Splunk, I can create a dashboard in Grafana. However, in Grafana, it takes a very long time to create them. There should be another API to do it better."
"They should release frequent updates for its on-premises version."
"There needs to be more capabilities in order to configure the console itself instead of the user interface dashboard. Configuring the DNS or DHCP through the console instead of the GUI dashboard would be better."
"Infoblox Advanced DNS Protection could be more user-friendly because you need knowledge if you want to use it. To handle the solution, you need to be a subject matter expert, so this is one area for improvement."
"Infoblox lacks an extensive product portfolio."
"There should be better alerts for when attacks are happening."
"There is a steep learning curve to be able to use Infoblox Advanced DNS Protection well."
"They are not supporting high query logging. They have a very limited size for the syslog, so they are usually asking for external storage, external network, and integration in order to keep the syslog. If you are considering the high volume traffic of the carrier-grade, then the syslog will hold for around five to 10 minutes. This is not enough time and it is being rotated. This is the main issue and the main limitation that we face with them that they need to work on."
"It applies commits to the firewalls slowly. There isn't an API you can use for anything. We've previously had trouble with the egress IP addresses though we expressed to engineering that those mustn't change. They changed several times without warning, causing a lot of headaches."
"We would like to see improvements in the licensing; currently, Palo Alto provides 500 to 1000 licenses for users, and we want to see 1500 to 2000 licenses for one version."
"It would be nice to manage Prisma Access through the cloud instead of through Panorama. You can use the cloud version to monitor Prisma Access, but it doesn't have all the features yet, and it's not 100% done."
"Sometimes, we encountered a portal crash. When we told Palo Alto they said it might be the browser or cache, but I think they need to improve it on their side."
"Better integration with the MDM solution would be useful."
"One area for improvement is for them to stay on top of keeping their CVEs on their platform up to date."
"While Palo Alto has understood the essence of building capabilities around cloud technology and have come up with a CASB offering, that is a very new product. There are other companies that have better offerings for understanding cloud applications and have more graceful controls. That's something that Palo Alto needs to work on."
"The solution’s stability could be improved."
