"Stability is never a concern."
"High availability with active-active and active-passive modes."
"The most valuable feature of Palo Alto Networks WildFire is its ability to adapt to environments and its robustness."
"The solution is completely integrated with all the other Palo Alto products. I think that it is the best part for endpoint protection. The firewall features include URL and DNS filtering, threat protection, and antivirus."
"The most valuable features of the solution are user-friendliness, price, good security, and cloud-related options."
"It is stable and pretty much scalable."
"Remote access is excellent."
"The graphic user interface of Palo Alto is good and it's easy to configure."
"There could be AI functionality included for features like reporting and dashboard preparation."
"The price of the solution is an area of concern where improvements are required. In general, the solution's price needs to be reduced."
"Microsoft itself is a major target for attacks and threats due to its size and popularity. That could be considered Microsoft's Achilles heel."
"One area that can be improved is reducing false positives."
"The tool's onboarding of users that use on-premise or hybrid environments needs to be improved."
"One area where Microsoft Defender could be improved is in its support for non-Microsoft products, particularly for systems running Linux or other open-source platforms across ecosystems."
"Having up-to-date documentation and real-time reflections in all portals would be beneficial to keep users informed about any changes. Additionally, the frequent changes in Microsoft's UI and the movement of features between different products in the set pose difficulties."
"The price point is something they can improve slightly for those who don't have an M 365 E5."
"The technical support response needs improvement."
"They should make their user interface a little more user-friendly."
"The initial setup was a little bit complex, mainly due to the GUI console and management challenges."
"The solution can improve its traffic management."
"The free version does not have real-time updates. It is slow."
"Our main concern is that everything has to be synced with the WildFire Cloud and has to be checked through the subscription."
"In terms of what I'd like to see in the next release of Palo Alto Networks WildFire, each release is based on malware that has been identified. The key problem is an average of six months from the time malware is written to the time it's discovered and a signature is created for it. The only advice that I can give is for them to shorten that timeframe. I don't know how they would do it, but if they shorten that, for example, cut it in half, they'll make themselves more famous."
"The configuration should be made a little bit easier. I understand why it is as it is, but there should be a way to make it easier from the user side."
