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.

Can automate updates and manage software licenses more effectively
Our team uses the SanerNow CyberHygiene Platform for threat detection, focusing on features like vulnerabilities and asset exposure. The asset exposure feature is packaged with software licenses and machines. We get the latest updates and patches for Windows workstations and applications for remediation. We can automate these updates, which greatly improves our previous manual and scripting-based tools. Before, we struggled with setting policies and making changes to workstations. Now, we can automate updates and manage software licenses more effectively. We monitor who's using various licenses like Office, CAD, Visio, and Lumion.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The behavior-based detection feature is valuable."
"Traps is quite a stable product. Once it was properly deployed and configured, you have nothing to be worried about."
"The most valuable features are incident creation, policy-based protection, IP whitelisting, and device encryption. These are beneficial for endpoint and server security."
"After installing this solution, it identified, blocked, and provided the complete attack chain, which was very helpful."
"The interface is easy to use and it is more up to date than our previous solution."
"The product's most valuable features are massive user and feature intelligence exploit detection."
"The policy configuration is great, the granularity of policies that are available is very helpful, it is straightforward to set up, and it has pretty much everything we need and works well within the Palo Alto ecosystem."
"The tool is designed to scale for large enterprises and handle large volumes of data."
"Although it is, in fact, a complete vulnerability management solution, the most valuable feature is the patch management functionality. Most of our customers give preference to this tool over other tools when it comes to patch management."
"Our team uses the SanerNow CyberHygiene Platform for threat detection, focusing on features like vulnerabilities and asset exposure. The asset exposure feature is packaged with software licenses and machines. We get the latest updates and patches for Windows workstations and applications for remediation. We can automate these updates, which greatly improves our previous manual and scripting-based tools."
"Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) has positively impacted our organization by improving overall efficiency, overall detection and response capabilities, and the capability to improve threat detections as well as the overall efficiency, time utilized, resource management, and analytic use cases review, significantly enhancing the business functionality."
"Trellix has a user-friendly interface."
"Blocking browser navigation is a feature of the solution with which we have experienced success."
"The product's initial setup phase was very straightforward since you just need to install it, and it works."
"Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) is valuable because we have a Wide Area Network with many sites, and the EDR is cross-site since it is installed and managed from the cloud."
"The product provides a one-click recovery of encrypted files."
"Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) does everything; it saves time, it saves money, and of course, it provides peace of mind."
"Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) has positively impacted my organization with threat exchange and intel, low false positive ratios, and very high uptime values for both inline and spam modes, along with advanced detection and mitigation capabilities ensuring the highest level of protection and proper detection for command and control and bot attacks."
 

Cons

"I don't like that they have different types of licenses. For example, if users select a license, they think they will have all the platforms they need to improve their network or security. But after some time, Palo Alto Networks changed their licensing, and some of the features that, for example, were free at the beginning now have a cost. I think the integration can be improved. For example, a lot of tools are just integrated through APIs."
"The downside to the solution is that there are a large number of false positives."
"It would be good if they could make an exception for applications. Sometimes, it can be a bit of a challenge to make exceptions for certain applications that have been used as rogue."
"There are some default policies which sometimes affect our applications and cause them to run around."
"A potential area of improvement for Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is the cost."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks could improve by adding a sandbox feature to better compete with their competitors which have it."
"Initially, we got to have a lot of false positives when we onboarded, but nowadays it's quite smooth."
"It is not easy to sell Cortex XDR, not because it isn't a good tool. Its marketing needs to be improved."
"SanerNow has good integration with the more well known ITSM tools, but at the same time there are many other ITSM (IT Service Management) tools available in the market, including local tools here in India, and I'm not sure how SanerNow plans to integrate with them all out of the box."
"SanerNow CyberHygiene Platform needs to incorporate more documentation."
"The dashboard and reporting features are not so user-friendly or intuitive, so they need some work."
"I also think performance needs improvement, especially for servers, as the Trellix HX module uses high CPU, scans constantly, and negatively impacts the performance for our clients' users or our servers."
"McAfee technical support has been not that great in the past two months, and it could be because they just merged with another company."
"Some modules that are doing machine learning and artificial intelligence are blocking our processes."
"One of the issues about the product stems from the failure to work on its administrative scalability. The aforementioned area can be considered for improvement."
"I remember doing many tickets for Trellix support, and my EDR was not properly functioning. I didn't feel the detection or the real protection."
"The graphical view for nodes must be increased."
"The endpoints and utilization are too high, which impacts the production activity."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is "expensive" and flexible."
"This is an expensive solution."
"When we first bought it, it was a bit expensive, but it was worth it. The licensing was straightforward."
"Cortex XDR's pricing is ok."
"The pricing is a little high. It is per user per year."
"We didn't have to pay any additional fee for the cloud instance. It just came with the renewal, which was nice."
"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."
"Compared to CrowdStrike, Cortex XDR is an expensive solution."
"As with several other solutions such as Microsoft MECM and SCCM, the licensing for SanerNow involves per-device pricing for each kind of product or service on offer."
"The pricing is reasonable - we paid about 2.5 million for 3,500 nodes."
"The pricing is always high."
"The cost is okay, compared to other products."
"The product’s pricing is reasonable."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is low and ten is high, I rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten."
"The licensing costs attached to the solution are very easy to manage. There is a need to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs."
"The price is reasonable."
"Speaking about the price, you must use the product to find the product's cost for you."
"McAfee MVISION Endpoint Detection and Response is reasonable in terms of cost. It's a tool my company has been using for a few years now. It costs $25,000 to $30,000 for six hundred users."
