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.

Reduces the time to detect and respond with moderate pricing

The centralized control feature is excellent. It provides a user-friendly interface for managing items and active endpoints, making it easy for central managers to control the network. I recommend it, but we need some documentation or a presentation from Seqrite. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

Provides stable and resource-efficient protection but lacks clear modern security features

Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise is highly compatible and rarely causes disruptions in production. It operates transparently and is easy to maintain. The automated response feature helps to mitigate breaches effectively. When comparing with ThreatDown agent, I have noticed that ThreatDown detects behaviors more readily and flags suspicious user activities more clearly. While Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise remains effective, ThreatDown's user interface is more manageable and provides a clearer system overview. The management interface is crucial for maintaining Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise effectively. A significant advantage of Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise is its lightweight resource usage. It consumes less memory, CPU, and IO compared to alternatives such as ThreatDown and Bitdefender.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Cortex XDR is a simple platform that's easy for administrators and users. You have a lot of flexibility to change or customize the features."

"It integrates well into the environment."

"The dashboard is customizable."

"Since they've done their most recent update, the ease to isolate endpoints is valuable. If we find one where there is a virus on it, we can easily isolate it. We don't even have to contact the user. We don't have to manually take them off the network. We can easily isolate them."

"The dashboard is customizable."

"If you are looking for security, mainly for advanced threat prevention from ransomware and malware attacks, I would recommend Cortex."

"They have a new GUI which is just fantastic."

"One of the main benefits of the solution is its intelligence to correlate the events into an incident."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"Seqrite has significantly reduced the time it takes to detect and respond."

"The solution installs very easily."

"The product's initial setup phase was straightforward."

"Endpoint protection solution with machine learning, device control, and application control features. It is scalable and stable."

"The primary feature of the solution is antivirus scanning with IPS. It blocks viruses and uses a signature database, ensuring robust protection when configured correctly to meet our requirements."

"The solution is useful for endpoint protection."

"The overall solution is good, particularly the detection engine. It performs well in identifying malware and conducting regular network scans. The product is easy to use."

"Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise’s interface is good to use."

"Stable with good customer service."

"The tool is a secure and stable workstation for checking antivirus. The alerting feature helps us see alerts and is easy to control. The main benefit we derive from using Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise is stability."

More Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise pros

Cons

"They've been having some issues with updating their endpoint agents, and it has been quite frustrating."

"Data privacy is a matter of concern. You have to be careful with data privacy, it can be sensitive and Cortex can have most of your access."

"There are some false positives."

"It is not a suitable solution if you are looking for a single product with multiple features such as DLP, encryption, rollback, etc."

"Data privacy is a matter of concern. You have to be careful with data privacy, it can be sensitive and Cortex can have most of your access."

"In the next release, I would like to see more UI improvements. Their UI is a bit basic. When we are speaking about Palo Alto Networks they are the big company, so they can improve the UI a little bit. The UI, the reports, the log system can all be improved."

"The solution should enhance the ADR and reporting."

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks can improve mobile integration to allow access to the console."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"The security is too week and needs improvement."

"The solution should focus on security, documentation, and simplicity for beginners."

"In the future, Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise should improve the firewall and documentation."

"The scanning area of the product should be made a little faster as it is the only area of concern in the tool where improvements are required."

"In the past, I experienced companies that protected themselves with Symantec, suffering some attacks."

"The customer support is lacking; I rate it a four out of ten."

"I believe an improvement could be made in Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise by incorporating a URL blocking feature within the same product. Currently, it requires a separate subscription and agent installation, which I think could be more streamlined for unified management from a single agent."

"Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise needs to improve its manageability. It is not easy to manage."

"Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise should focus on cloud security with Microsoft Azure or Amazon AWS rather than having their standard solution."

"We are currently looking at CrowdStrike as a replacement option because on-prem support is going away under Symantec."

More Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise cons

"The product is not very expensive."

"The solution's license is very expensive."

"I rate the tool's pricing a six out of ten."

"The price of Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise is expensive. When compared to other solutions they should reduce the price."

"I would rate it a seven, indicating a satisfactory and moderate level. Despite being somewhat on the expensive side, it aligns with our long-standing relationship with Symantec, and we find it acceptable."
