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.

Balanced endpoint protection has improved forensic visibility and speeds threat investigation
I think there's always something that needs to be improved about WatchGuard EPDR, but I don't have something specific to say that you should do this or that. They are listening to the users, so they are fixing things as they've been found. I don't have any example to give. The pricing is always a thing where you need to be in the line that the balance to get it right is a challenging thing with WatchGuard EPDR. If you have good features, then you can have a little bigger price, but if you just get the balance right, that's important. I haven't used automated incident response in WatchGuard EPDR.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Stability is a primary factor, and then there's the ease of distribution and policy management; Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is very easy to work with, and we're quite happy with them."
"I have found the solution to be very easy in respect of the integration and configurable."
"Stability is one of the features we like the most."
"The best feature of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is that it collects logs from different sections such as the endpoint, the network, and the cloud, making it easy to investigate alerts, collect some of the investigation packages related to the infected machines, and provide live response."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks has helped lighten the load of our security analysts because it was the major tool that we were using and the one we utilized most."
"The stability of this product is very good."
"The anti-exploit is impenetrable."
"The behavior-based detection feature is valuable."
"The overall performance of the server and the dashboard are the most interesting aspects of the solution."
"The setup process was easy for our remote clients and us as well."
"The only thing that I have found useful is that I have an overview of my systems in the networks."
"The most valuable features are the file activity monitors, DLP solutions, and application controls."
"There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management."
"In case it works, we are looking to use features like USB blocking, file upload alerts, and other antivirus features as well, but this software has to work first."
"The convenience has been great."
"The most valuable features of the solution are DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities."
"Great technical support staff."
"I think they are very satisfied with Panda Security because it is quite simple to use."
"It allows us to stop activation windows."
"The dashboard management feature is valuable."
"It is stable, and the performance is good."
"I think there's quite a good balance in everything with WatchGuard EPDR, with tools to do things and watch what's happening, and everything is in the same tools and quite well designed or thought about how to do things, which is the reason I've been enjoying them."
"Since implementing this solution, we have not had any trouble with malware."
"It is remarkably easy to deploy."
 

Cons

"The playbooks could be improved to include more functionalities or actions."
"There is a severe gap in functionality between Windows, Linux, and Mac versions. For example all folder restriction settings are Windows only. Traps 5.0+ does not have SAML / LDAP integration."
"The technical support is not very good. I find the process difficult."
"I think sometimes Cortex XDR agent automatically stops event capturing from the device, and then even the dashboard does not get any notifications from the agent."
"If he is using a smaller company, he can depend on some other tools because Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is a bit expensive."
"The setup is quite easy. We had appropriate support from the manager. One thing that was missing was the integration part."
"They are charging for Network Traffic Analyzer (NTA) services, so if the per GB data could be provided at a certain level free of cost or at the same cost which the customer is taking for the entire bundle, that would be better."
"As an improvement, I would like to see enhanced connection speeds."
"We are using Apple devices, and the advanced device control service doesn't work for M1 chips devices, like Apple MacBooks."
"The solution's integration capabilities are moderate and could be improved."
"The stability is zero, Seqrite doesn't work, and the company doesn't accept the problems."
"The product or service could be improved by incorporating SIEM integrations to enable the collection of logs."
"The solution needs to improve stability."
"I don't feel that the scalability part of Seqrite Endpoint Security is better than the other products in the market."
"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."
"User management could be improved."
"For some urgent updates, I don't like the need for the tool to be frequently restarted."
"t would help if it would monitor the network better."
"This solution can't scale how we like."
"The Linux installation is performed on the command line and they need a package installer for that operating system."
"I would rate Panda Adaptive Defense 360 overall eight points because I still try to find another solution that is easier for me, which can provide what I currently have in Panda Adaptive Defense 360."
"Panda Security Adaptive Defense can improve by including the intrusion and prevention system not only on their most expensive platform. Additionally, it blocks software that is legitimate from users. They complain and then we have to manually unblock the software, by hash, or we receive a message. Some of the prevention features are not available and this might cause us to need a separate firewall or something to protect the company."
"It would be nice if Panda Security Adaptive Defense could come out with remote desktop usage."
"It needs some improvements in the DNS security feature. Currently, it does not have full DNS security. It only has semi-DNS security, which can be improved. It is an important feature for us, and it would be really good if they can improve the DNS security feature. Our group has some plans to change to Cisco AMP, which has features such as DNS, Umbrella. We are trying to learn about Cisco AMP and compare it with Panda."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is an expensive solution."

"It is "expensive" and flexible."
"Cortex XDR's pricing is ok."

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 have any issues with the pricing. We are satisfied with the price."
