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.

Centralized policies have improved remote endpoint control and have simplified data visibility
The integration is not simple and easy. It requires experienced users or people who have done the implementation. When certain policies are applied, they do not immediately push the policies. For example, we manage endpoint device USB access. We set a policy to block it, but it does not come into effect immediately. Sometimes it takes three or four days for it to reflect. That is a pain point. I have raised this issue with support as well, but they said that I need to limit the number of devices in the policy. In terms of application deployment, for us, it was seamless.

Achieve effective email management while identifying areas for security upgrades
There are a couple of issues we have encountered while using Trend Micro Worry-Free Services Suites for the past four or five years. The first is the Business Email Compromise (BEC) issue. Even though we configured the business email compromise option, we still face this issue sometimes where people are getting emails directly with our email ID. We were not able to get a satisfactory answer from them regarding the BEC issue. The ransomware protection issue for the old servers or outdated servers and recovery of the data needs improvement in Trend Micro Worry-Free Services Suites. The ransomware protection issue for old servers and business email compromise also needs to be upgraded because even though it's configured, we still face this BEC issue. The response time of the support also needs improvement.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is easy to use."
"The stability is pretty good except for one or two cases, and based on the performance, it's been okay with pretty high performance, no bugs or glitches, and it doesn't crash or freeze."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks should be a stable solution."
"I have found the solution to be very easy in respect of the integration and configurable."
"The most valuable feature of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is its machine-learning capabilities. Additionally, there is full integration with other solutions."
"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."
"Threat identification and detection are the most valuable features of this solution."
"Cortex Xnor's playbooks predefine the workflow of the automation, such as response processes, alert triggering, and enriching the context, collecting relevant indicators such as hashes, IP addresses, or domains efficiently and can detect and block malicious attacks with firewalls."
"I like the fact that you can create patching campaigns depending on the area of your network that you want to address first."
"Tanium is highly scalable."
"I would say Tanium is the best tool for vulnerability management."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the consolidation of all historical data on device endpoints, security drivers, firmware, and Software version gaps."
"I like the fact that you can create patching campaigns depending on the area of your network that you want to address first. I like the ability it has to make several campaigns that work in parallel."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the consolidation of all historical data on device endpoints, security drivers, firmware, and Software version gaps."
"Tanium is stable and it is also lightweight."
"Tanium's most valuable features are patch management, inventory, and distribution software."
"Trend Micro effectively detects and blocks NAS devices and identifies potential threats."
"Trend Micro Worry-Free Services Suites has an inbuilt auto scan facility."
"The most valuable features of Trend Micro Worry-Free Services Suites that I found are the antivirus, anti-spamming, anti-malware services that customers are looking for and using, and they are satisfied with that."
"We use the solution for endpoint protection, malware detection, and detecting unsafe web access."
"The multi-tenancy feature is beneficial for managing different customers, allowing for efficient handling across various tenants."
"The solution's ability to operate without placing a heavy burden on our system resources is particularly commendable."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the ease of deployment."
"The load balancer feature is excellent."
 

Cons

"Cortex XDR could improve its sales support team, including better commission structures and referral programs."
"The GUI could be improved. It's a little bit cumbersome. It could be more user-friendly."
"Cortex XDR is trickier to configure than other Palo Alto products. This is one area where we are not so satisfied."
"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."
"Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR does not detect malicious activity like in other anti-virus solutions like Trend Micro and Windows with Cisco."
"While using Cortex, I noticed some aspects that could be improved, such as increasing the synchronization speed between XDR and Xnor."
"In an upcoming release, the solution could improve by providing hard disk encryption."
"This product has not improved my organization - in fact, we are in the process of moving back to another product as a result of Cortex's horrible impact on system performance."
"The solution lacks mobility."
"When working with Tanium, there are some older devices that haven't been patched for a long time, and certain patches are not included in Tanium. I have to search outside to download patches, create bundles, and then perform the task."
"Most of the time, agent-relative issues have to be more equipped with self-healing features."
"The solution can give a lot of false positives."
"We had some issues with the solution's OS upgrade."
"Our biggest issue with the solution is its lack of mobility."
"The main issues are the network connection because different customers have issues with their networks. It's difficult implementing this type of solution because the network is the main feature in the architecture for these types of solutions. Tanium could improve by creating some network optimization."
"Tanium's limitations should be improved because although it is a great tool, it is limited to only a few classes during a session."
"The solution's documentation is not good, and I'm struggling to change global configurations."
"The licensing aspect seems costly, and the license cost increases yearly, which is a concern for us."
"Even though we configured the business email compromise option, we still face this issue sometimes where people are getting emails directly with our email ID."
"The log management feature needs to be improved, specifically, the ability to send logs from the console via API."
"Network vulnerability scanning could be improved."
"The solution’s scalability is limited."
"The EDR part of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The pricing of Trend Micro is a little bit higher compared to Sophos."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is a little bit on the expensive side."
"I feel it is fairly priced."
"The tool's price is moderate."
"It has a yearly renewal."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is an expensive solution."
"It is present, but when compared to other competitive products, I would say it is not less expensive; however, when all of the other added values are considered, the price is reasonable."
