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.

"The solution is very simple and straightforward to use."

"The traffic security monitoring, traffic application access feature called the agent, the main feature which is the endpoint security feature are the ones I found valuable. And it also had the in branch security in kind of SD WAN, good three hundred and sixty protection. It is specific and there is ease of deployment also present."

"Probably, compared to other antivirus programs, what we like about it is it is lightweight."

"The initial setup was straightforward. It took five minutes. I installed the solution myself."

"I rate the initial setup phase a ten on a scale of one to ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy."

More OpenText Core Endpoint Protection pros

"With Seqrite, it is completely protected, and we have full control over what is happening on the end user's laptop."

"The solution effectively detects malicious files and blocks sign-ins."

"Seqrite Endpoint Security provides external protection in terms of hard drives."

"I like Seqrite's web protection features and external device control."

More Seqrite Endpoint Security pros

Cons

"The solution lacks real-time, on-demand antivirus."

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks could improve by adding a sandbox feature to better compete with their competitors which have it."

"There are some third-party solutions that are difficult to integrate with, which is something that can be improved."

"Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR does not detect malicious activity like in other anti-virus solutions like Trend Micro and Windows with Cisco."

"Every 30 or 40 days, there's a new version and we need to go and make sure our customer's laptops are upgraded."

"It tends to do 99.9% of things. The only thing I'd like is single sign-on authentication into their cloud platform so that my users can be properly authenticated against it."

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is not only pricey; it is extremely expensive."

"I would like to see some additional features related to email protection included."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"They should provide more information on the type of cyber attacks."

"I want Webroot to be easier to use and set up. It is not very intuitive."

"It would be great if there was a feature which would allow you to scan an individual file on an endpoint user's computer."

"There is one thing that is deplorable with the product that I would change as soon as I found a better one. However, the reports are worthless."

"This product has room for improvement to display a more detailed representation of the problem when a virus is or isn't stopped."

"There should be a Webroot Business Endpoint Protection mobile app."

"Areas for improvement would be the reporting system in the admin console."

"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."

More OpenText Core Endpoint Protection cons

"When it comes to the support provided by the product, I see that Seqrite is not as mature as the other products in the market."

"The product or service could be improved by incorporating SIEM integrations to enable the collection of logs."

"A handbook of known issues and quick fixes should be given so that troubleshooting and frustration are less."

"Endpoint Security would be improved by adding DLP."

"The pricing could be a bit lower."

"Sometimes, small and medium businesses, or even startups with just five, ten, or fifteen systems, are also keen to secure their data. There is a reluctance on the part of the technical team to extend installation support when the opportunity sizes are smaller. Seqrite Endpoint Security has a lot of value. Still, its marketing could be done much better on a larger scale, especially in India, in light of the new DPDP 2023 Act, which the Indian Parliament passed. It would be even more valuable if Seqrite could incorporate features to help companies comply with this law, it would be even more helpful."

"It should be able to detect and report any ransomware attack but currently, it doesn't detect and it doesn't report any."

"Deployment of Seqrite Endpoint Security is generally straightforward. The only complexity we encounter is that, since it is cloud-based, there can be delays in updating the endpoint's status."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is quite an expensive solution."

"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."

"Our customers have expressed that the price is high."

"The pricing is okay, although direct support can be expensive."

"It has a higher cost than other solutions, like CrowdStrike or Microsoft’s EDR tools, but it reduces the cost of our operations because it’s a new generation antivirus tool."

"If one wishes to work with another team or large number of users at a future point, he must purchase a license for them."

"The return on investment is from the user side because we have seen the performance of it increase the delivery time of the product if we are using too many web-based and on-premise applications. In indirect ways, we saw the return of investment in terms of performance and user satisfaction increase."

"I don't have any issues with the pricing. We are satisfied with the price."

"The solution is very cost-effective."

"With Webroot Business Endpoint Protection, I can select a yearly billing cycle."
