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

"It detected stuff that other things wouldn't detect."
"We switched because there were a lot of added features with Palo Alto that Check Point didn't have, and it was an upgrade for us."
"It has pretty much everything we need and works well within the Palo Alto ecosystem."
"Implementing Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks has had a significant impact on my security analyst workload because it becomes much easier."
"The interface is easy to use and it is more up to date than our previous solution."
"The dashboard is customizable."
"The information the dashboard provides is very clear."
"The protection offered by this product is good, as is the endpoint reporting."
"The overall performance of the server and the dashboard are the most interesting aspects of the solution."
"The most valuable features of the solution are DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities."
"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."
"There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management."
"The convenience has been great."
"With Seqrite, it is completely protected, and we have full control over what is happening on the end user's laptop."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"The solution's current features include antivirus, web filtering, file activity monitoring, PAM, firewall, IDS/IPS, and DLP. Though I'm not familiar with the whole solution, it is good."
"The core functionality of the product is very impressive and I recommend that people use it."
"It is easy to manage."
"What I appreciate the most about WatchGuard EPDR is that with the managed detection and response system, when there is an alert about the product running, the turnaround time for enabling it is less than two hours."
"The dashboard management feature is valuable."
"It allows us to stop activation windows."
"The product so far has been good at protecting us. We haven't faced a breach."
"WatchGuard is commendable for its work on threats."
"The solution itself is great."
 

Cons

"The playbooks could be improved to include more functionalities or actions."
"The configuration could be simplified. I would like to see better protection, specifically to protect email applications."
"I have run into some detection issues with Cortex XDR. It needs to be better at detection of internal attacks."
"There are some false positives."
"It's very time-consuming to log support issues and the people that answer the tickets aren't very knowledgeable."
"As an improvement, I would like to see enhanced connection speeds."
"Technology evolves every day, so it would be nice if it gets more secure. It can also have more integration with other platforms."
"In reporting they should have a customizable dashboard due to the fact that C-level people don't like reporting to the IT department. They prefer to have a real-time dashboard. That kind of dashboard needs to have various customizations."
"The product or service could be improved by incorporating SIEM integrations to enable the collection of logs."
"The solution needs to improve stability."
"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."
"In the next version, they should improve the areas of utility and centralized control."
"The support offered by the tool is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"When we fire any employee connected remotely over the internet, we need a security feature that blocks the system and the device."
"I don't feel that the scalability part of Seqrite Endpoint Security is better than the other products in the market."
"It should be able to detect and report any ransomware attack but currently, it doesn't detect and it doesn't report any."
"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."
"It needs some improvements in the DNS security feature. Currently, it does not have full DNS security."
"The solution should have additional endpoint protection."
"The Linux installation is performed on the command line and they need a package installer for that operating system."
"Panda Adaptive Defense 360 is not compatible with certain network devices like access points, switches, or routers, which would be an area for improvement."
"They could have more reports."
"It needs improvements in its EDR and its ability to manage all the nodes. I'd like better communication between the console and the nodes, so I don't have to remote into each individual machine that's having an issue with the protection."
"Their MacOS support isn't that good."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It has a yearly renewal."
"The cost depends on your chosen license type, like Pro or other licenses."
"Its pricing is kind of in line with its competitors and everybody else out there."
"Every customer has to pay for a license because it doesn't work with what you get from a managed services provider."
"The price is on the higher side, but it's okay."
"I don't like that they have different types of licenses."
"It has a higher cost than other solutions, like CrowdStrike or Microsoft’s EDR tools, but it reduces the cost of our operations because it’s a new generation antivirus tool."
"The return on investment is from the user side because we have seen the performance of it increase the delivery time of the product if we are using too many web-based and on-premise applications. In indirect ways, we saw the return of investment in terms of performance and user satisfaction increase."
"The license isn't expensive."
"Endpoint Security is cheaper than Trend Micro."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"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."
"You need to pay for a yearly license for Seqrite Endpoint Security, which is expensive."
"It is a cheaply priced product."
"I give the cost of the solution a seven out of ten."
"We get the tool for around 1200 rupees for a three-year subscription. I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
"The licensing is subscription-based and priced well compared to other endpoint security solutions."
"The price of this solution depends on the number of licenses that you are purchasing."
"I don't think Panda's license is too expensive, but they're charging more than it's worth. It's a yearly license. For 1,000 endpoints, it's around $18,000."
"There is a license needed to use this solution and it is approximately $30 annually."
"The solution is priced well for what features it provides."
"The solution's pricing is better compared to other products."
