We performed a comparison between Palo Alto Networks Panorama and Tufin Orchestration Suite based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Firewall Security Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Using this solution means that you can store logs for longer periods, up to perhaps two years, depending on your attached storage."
"The entire ease of use is most valuable. If you're managing firewalls locally with PAN-OS, the look and feel of Panorama is the same. So, you don't have to relearn another product. If you're used to managing firewalls from Palo Alto, you can easily use Panorama to manage them. It looks and feels the same."
"This is an efficient solution."
"The threat prevention and layer seven security features were the most used and important for us. All operations are quite good in this solution."
"The reporting is great."
"Networks Panorama has improved our organizational security"
"It allows administrators to manage all firewalls from a single interface, reducing the time and effort required for configuration."
"The most valuable feature of Palo Alto Networks Panorama is the simplicity of rule management. Both this device group and template management are very easy to use."
"The visibility is huge. In order to figure out what was going on previously, we would have to pull stuff out of firewalls and put them in spreadsheets, then do sorts. Now, it's all right there in Tufin. We can write reports to look for what we need, ad hoc searches to find object groups, and know which firewalls are on. This was almost impossible to do previously."
"It provides a great visibility around the roots: Root implementing which can be done, roots that have changed, and what has been done. So, it's pretty useful when you have an audit going on."
"Visibility is its largest and most valuable feature. You can see everything or all the devices on the network for each customer. It provides you a larger view of what might be wrong with the network and how you can improve it with firewall rules, etc. If you are talking about secure change, being able to automate the entire change process is pretty much the winner for us. It is going to really reduce the time that it takes for us to do changes, and we can just go out and get more customers."
"It is very easy to use. We can get results back quickly."
"Tufin assists us in maintaining a robust view of our internal network topology."
"The most valuable feature is that it extends security entries in the firewall policies."
"We find it to be flexible. If we have a change that needs to be done, it will go ahead and do it for all our devices, regardless of the manufacturer that we have associated with it."
"We use it to clean up our firewall policies, which gives us better security policy and less junk on the firewalls."
"Customer support can improve."
"We have experienced a few bugs which the team at Palo Alto don't have solutions for."
"The licensing costs are quite high."
"There were a few bugs a couple of years into it. There was a big bug where it had trouble communicating with the two main boxes."
"We found a vulnerability where when we have a low flow, like 2.7K, it is not getting fired by the threat prevention. That's something important to improve on. They should have a proxy or some solution to solve the issue. We also found some issues around decrypting the flow. When we have more flow than expected to decrypt, the performance goes down."
"Sometimes in Palo Alto Networks Panorama, we receive issues where it is overloaded and unresponsive. We have issues with accessing the devices due to a slow response from Panorama."
"The solution is extremely expensive. You can integrate it with other Palo Alto products, however, it ends up being too much."
"The ability to add scheduled jobs would be a significant improvement. Panorama has the ability to push out OS updates, but it would be nice to be able to schedule those updates so not to affect the site during normal business hours."
"The reports could be easier to read and more customizable. Also, capturing some of the different versions, and being able to dig through them could be a bit better."
"There are things that could be explained a little better for somebody brand new to this system, which could be helpful, especially if it was in real-time while you were working in the system. Having the ability in real-time to be able to understand search query suggestions would be helpful."
"I would like the application to have faster response times. E.g., the dashboard may take up to two minutes to load. Or, when we do the topology seating its two and a half hours. I would like to get those times down and increase the efficiency of the product there."
"I would like to see AI elements included with this solution."
"We will be using the appliance based product, which cannot be scaled as much. It is a limitation in the hardware."
"There were some hiccups here and there with the initial setup."
"The hardest piece is getting the matrix built."
"The key area for improvement is the integration to F5. One of the things that we encountered with another customer is that there were some limitations when we tried to migrate policies from F5 into Tufin."
