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.

Centrally managed, easy to configure, and easy to use
Seqrite Endpoint Security protects individual machines, servers, and emails against malware, viruses, and spam attacks The solution is centrally managed, easy to configure, and easy to use. It allows you to patch your required reports. The solution provides central deployment, remote deployment,…
Ashutosh Jha - PeerSpot reviewer

Endpoint protection has strengthened malware defense and simplifies web and peripheral control
I would give Sophos Endpoint a rating of nine out of ten because it is working very well. I have cut one point because it has no solution for on-premises. Additionally, it has no solution for any Linux-based system endpoints. I have to install the server protection on Linux machines, which is why I am cutting one point for Sophos Endpoint. Sophos Endpoint should include the Linux endpoint agent and should provide a solution for Linux endpoints as well, because the server license is costly and nobody wants to use the server license on an endpoint machine. Sophos Endpoint should have a Linux endpoint independent agent as well.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The interface is easy to use and it is more up to date than our previous solution."
"We have found in our test Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks to be a very good tool."
"The solution's most valuable feature is the user interface."
"We've had a significant increase in blocking with a decrease in false positives, because it's looking at how the files work, not just a list of files that it's been told to look for."
"Traps pays for itself within the first 16 months of a three-year subscription."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks's ability to block sophisticated threats in real time is quite good and is on par with SentinelOne's."
"It has pretty much everything we need and works well within the Palo Alto ecosystem."
"It's a nice product that's stable and scalable."
"With Seqrite, it is completely protected, and we have full control over what is happening on the end user's laptop."
"We found the DLP to be innovative and useful."
"The update process and policy control are good."
"There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management."
"We were excited about the cloud-based management features of Seqrite and were looking to use the same."
"I like Seqrite's web protection features and external device control."
"The setup process was easy for our remote clients and us as well."
"Endpoint Security's best features are inventory, asset management, and quick scanning."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to centrally manage the total security environment, including the firewall."
"Sophos EPP Suite stands out with its user-friendly dashboard and strong web filtering features for enhanced online security."
"It was successful in preventing malware distribution."
"What I like best about Sophos EPP Suite is that it's a good product. What's nice about it is that after I installed it on my computer, the tool detects and eliminates most of the problems, malware, and vulnerabilities. It works very well and is very efficient because it doesn't use up many resources from my computer. For me, Sophos EPP Suite is the best security and antivirus solution. In terms of its endpoint capabilities, I'm unable to comment on other Sophos security devices, but it seems Sophos EPP Suite has a next-generation firewall feature, though I didn't use it, and it may not be comparable to other next-generation firewalls. My current firewall is a next-generation firewall from Fortinet, and it's the best firewall for me in terms of cost and security, but for endpoint protection, I use Sophos EPP Suite, and it has the best security for my device. The tool is also good for organizations. It's the best tool."
"The solution's setup is straightforward and doesn't take much time to complete."
"The most valuable features of Sophos EPP Suite are the synchronized threat and ransomware protection."
"The product’s ease of deployment is its best feature."
"The product gives you a full picture of what's happening on your endpoint, on your PC, or your server."
 

Cons

"Currently, we are monitoring all USB drives and ports but we would like to improve our device control capabilities."
"Technology evolves every day, so it would be nice if it gets more secure. It can also have more integration with other platforms."
"The product's pricing could be better."
"The connection to the internet has not performed as expected."
"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."
"Although I would say this product is highly-rated, it could probably do more because nothing does everything that you want."
"It is not very strong in terms of endpoint management. It should have additional features like DLP, encryption, or advanced device control. Currently, Cortex is good in terms of the security of the endpoints, but it is not as good as other vendors in terms of the management of the endpoint."
"There's an overall lack of features."
"User management is not that good currently, and so we have trouble with handling user management."
"User management could be improved."
"We would like the solution to have integration with other security solutions so that we can have a single base for monitoring all the security incidents and concerns."
"The solution's integration capabilities are moderate and could be improved."
"I would like to see Seqrite add a remote profile so we can implement different policies for users connecting to the in-office LAN and those accessing the office network from home or a public internet connection."
"I don't feel that the scalability part of Seqrite Endpoint Security is better than the other products in the market."
"When we fire any employee connected remotely over the internet, we need a security feature that blocks the system and the device."
"The solution needs to improve stability."
"We need to uninstall the license to move to another endpoint."
"I would like to have the capability to support legacy operating systems because the majority now don't support Windows XP, and Windows 2000."
"Pricing is a consideration for us; for the Indian market, it is slightly expensive."
"There could be more integration included in Sophos EPP Suite."
"One area for improvement in Sophos EPP Suite is the support response time, particularly of the management team."
"The solution isn't quite accurate enough. It provides a lot of false positives."
"If we could bypass the first couple of levels of support when we have a problem then it would be easier and quicker when we need an issue resolved."
"More integration options could be included in Sophos EPP Suite."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It has a yearly renewal."
"This is an expensive solution."
"The pricing is a little high. It is per user per year."
"I did PoCs on products called Cylance and CrowdStrike. Although, I consider these products and they were also good, when it come to cost and budgetary factors, Traps has been proven to be better than the other two products. It is quite cost-effective and delivers all the entire solution which we require."
"I don't recall what the cost was, but it wasn't really that expensive."
"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."
"Cortex XDR’s pricing is very reasonable."
"The price is on the higher side, but it's okay."
"My company needs to purchase a yearly subscription for the licensing costs for Seqrite Endpoint Security."
"The solution's pricing is good for us, where it is neither cheap nor expensive."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"You need to pay for a yearly license for Seqrite Endpoint Security, which is expensive."
"The licensing fee is 200 Bangladeshi Taka per client per year."
"As per the suggestions from one of the experts we know, it is advisable to make a proper comparison with the local vendors instead of solely relying on online prices, which are often higher and quite expensive."
"Licensing fees are on a yearly basis. Compared to other solutions, this solution is cheaper."
"The solution has reasonable pricing. There is one pricing without any hidden charges. They have to pay once a year or three years."
"Willing to discount when you are switching from another product. Upgrading services will end up costing more, as expected."
"We purchased a three-year license, which gave us a large discount."
"The price of Sophos EPP Suite is reasonable."
"Price-wise, it is cheap. We need to pay 1,500 to 2,000 INR per user...On a scale of one to ten, where one is very cheap, and ten is very expensive, I rate the pricing a three out of ten."
"The solution is expensive."
"The pricing for this solution is ok."
"A yearly subscription has to be purchased or made towards the licensing cost of the solution. The solution is an affordable or an economical one for corporate houses."
