The best feature is the quality of the application quality of service.""One of the most valuable features is the anti-malware protection.""With the IP address flag, I was able to see that I was being hacked.

"The initial setup is complex.""The technology firewall anomaly network could stand improvement.""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.""Mission learning techniques should continue to expand and detect unknown threats on the fly.""Palo Alto's maintenance needs to be improved.""The organization mail security solutions could be improved. There is no mail security solution available.""In terms of what needs improvement, the only thing I don't like is the support.""It's not so easy to set up a test environment, because it's not so easy to get the test license.
