Easier to learn, access, and use, and comes with an easy to understand GUI
What we like most in LogRhythm NetworkXDR is its GUI. The GUI is the best when compared to competitors. For example, there is another SIEM in QRadar and Splunk, and for open source SIEM there is Wazuh and there are other SIEM solutions, but LogRhythm NetworkXDR is more reliable and easier to access. It's easy to use and its display is easy to understand. Learning LogRhythm NetworkXDR is smooth sailing compared to other SIEM solutions.

Advanced protection enables us to confidently secure against evolving threats
Palo Alto Networks can improve Advanced Threat Prevention by catering to the growing adoption of AI and agentic tooling. The Threat Protection modules should have the necessary intelligence to protect against those types of threats, as AI will be there to do a human job; this is an evolving area. From an Advanced Threat Protection perspective, the technology associated with Palo Alto Networks, such as their sandboxing environment, is quite good. However, Palo Alto needs to focus on how to bring that technology to end users and how easy it is to use, especially in a hybrid environment where users work from various locations. While Palo Alto excels in certain setups, they need to improve the user experience in distributed working conditions.

Pros

"What we like most in LogRhythm NetworkXDR is its GUI. The GUI is the best when compared to competitors. For example, there is another SIEM in QRadar and Splunk, and for open source SIEM there is Wazuh and there are other SIEM solutions, but LogRhythm NetworkXDR is more reliable and easier to access. It's easy to use and its display is easy to understand. Learning LogRhythm NetworkXDR is smooth sailing compared to other SIEM solutions."
"We are currently using the URL filtering feature, which is the most popular."
"I rate Palo Alto Networks Advanced Threat Prevention as nine out of ten."
"Palo Alto Networks Advanced Threat Prevention provides protections against both known and unknown threats quickly, and they have great Cyber Threat Alliance integration, which allows anything that is even unknown to get to our systems quickly in terms of being patched."
"Everything has been okay with the solution. We are using all of the features."
"The most valuable feature of Palo Alto Threat Prevention for our company is the next generation firewall."
"The application control and vulnerability protection are the most valuable features."
"You can scale the product."
"Most of the features of Palo Alto Threat Prevention are alright. I recommend features like content filtering, IP address, & intelligent firewalls. The reporting feature is very good."
 

Cons

"What would make LogRhythm NetworkXDR better is if they could run it open source, similar to what is being done in Wazuh, and Wazuh is also a good tool to compare against. More integration could also make LogRhythm NetworkXDR better."
"It's not so easy to set up a test environment, because it's not so easy to get the test license. The vendor only gives you 90 days for a test license; it's a tough license to get."
"The solution needs to improve its local technical support services. There is no premium support offered in our market."
"Palo Alto's maintenance needs to be improved."
"The documentation needs to be improved. I need better information about how to configure it and what the best practices are."
"Generally, to deploy it will take some downtime, about a day."
"The application’s pricing and dashboard need improvement. It could be user-friendly."
"Sometimes when you want to group a set of ports, and communicate with Palo Alto, you cannot group TCP and UDP ports together. This needs to be adjusted."
"The cost involves the price of the hardware, which is expensive. However, most of the Palo Alto solutions are expensive."
