"The feature that I like best is the dashboard."
"The most valuable feature is alerting."
"I am impressed with the tool's integration of Palo Alto products which serves as a platform for security."
"The solution has all the features that we need, however they do not work correctly."
"It has powerful threat detection, incident response, and compliance management."
"This solution can completely detect and prevent incidents on your network."
"As we have to service several servers, we can manage them in a economical way, which is beneficial to our team and business."
"Its powerful correlation engine helps reduce time in manually correlating events."
"The asset management functionality (active and passive scans) is also really important. You can't protect what you do not know about, so having an inventory of all your devices and software is critical to a security management program."
"Every activity on the firewall is recorded, and notifications are sent with this solution."
"The vulnerability manager and the file integration are very good."
"It is a completely cloud-based product at present."
"I would like the tool to see more integration with Cortex XDR. There is no real reason to keep them separate."
"I would like to have more technical documentation that contains greater detail on the types of threats that are occurring."
"It would be helpful to have better documentation for configuring and installing the solution."
"It would be better if they used the threat intelligence feeds directly from their side and changing the verdict instead of us requesting it."
"The vulnerability scanning feature is one of the areas where the product has certain shortcomings and needs to improve. The tool has vulnerability scanning, but it is not that efficient."
"There are many reports included but would be nice to have better access to the data."
"The solution is a bit complicated. It could be simplified quite a bit."
"Sometimes the log is unclear, and the report is a bit ambiguous."
"I've been using it just for my own personal upskilling in terms of how the product works. At the moment, it is pretty straightforward and simple, and it is working how it is supposed to. The feedback would come once it is deployed to customer sites. They'll be using it on a more frequent basis, and that's when the feedback would come in terms of the areas in which they're facing issues or are looking for simplicity."
"USM Anywhere relies a lot on the community putting the data in. Often, you'll right-click on the attack, but nothing will be found. That's a weakness of it."
"We develop additional rules and scripts to make it more usable."
"Windows log collection works with HIDS, but documentation is sparse and confusing."
