Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks Reviews

Cortex covers everything I need. It's a perfect solution. Cortex provides a different level of visibility because it's an extended EDR, allowing you to grab logs from the network and firewalls. Palo Alto invented the concept of the extended EDR or XDR.

The price could be a little lower. 

I have been using Cortex for four years.

Palo Alto provides on-the-ground and remote support. They have a local team on the ground and teams in India or other countries. Their support is excellent, and they know what they're doing.

Some of my customers have McAfee, Symantec, or Kaspersky. Palo Alto can integrate with other vendors, so it's not locked to one single vendor. Other vendors like Trend Micro, Bitdefender, CrowdStrike, etc. have limitations on log collection from other places. On Palo Alto's datasheet, it tells you that it can talk to Check Point, Fortinet, etc. It's pretty awesome. I believe this is a huge advantage that allows us to implement Cortex anywhere. 

I rate Cortex XDR 10 out of 10 for ease of setup. It can be deployed on-prem or on the cloud. It's an easy process that doesn't take long. 

I rate Cortex XDR 10 out of 10. 

I use the solution for endpoint security to capture endpoint security devices' logs and security events.

The solution's most valuable feature is its general integration with various Palo Alto Networks products. The tool is a unified platform that includes a firewall, Prisma Cloud, and Cortex's storage. It is also a single data platform that consolidates data from endpoints and network traffic into a single data lake. For behavior analytics, the tool uses advanced behavior analytics and machine learning to detect sophisticated threats.

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. A particular endpoint message with the events captured gets stopped, making it an area where there is a need to improve the agent's real-time monitoring.

I have been using Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks for around five years.

The tool is designed to scale for large enterprises and handle large volumes of data. The tool has a scalable architecture, and accessing or processing data is leveraged by the tool, making it a robust infrastructure process that allows for efficient data analysis and timely detection and response.

In my company, around 15,000 employees use the tool.

Many times, I raised requests for follow-up with the support team, but only sometimes there is a response. Palo Alto's team needs to work on its issues so that they can provide twenty-four hours and seven days of support to users.

From a deployment and integration perspective, I can say it is an easy and user-friendly tool, so I don't face any challenges with the tool.

The solution is deployed on the cloud and in the on-premises model. Mostly, the tool was in the cloud for my previous client.

One needs to look into the support and services, especially Palo Alto's support and professional services, which is an area that is not yet available. When it comes to the implementation and optimized XDR solutions, sometimes third-party integrations do not happen with XDR. When it comes to third-party integrations, a playbook in Palo Alto should be there for all the third-party tools, showing how we can implement them.

The tool is very easy and user-friendly.

I rate the tool an eight and a half out of ten.

We use Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks for endpoint security. It scans for unwanted and malicious activity on endpoints and servers, creating alerts and incidents.

The most valuable features are incident creation, policy-based protection, IP whitelisting, and device encryption. These are beneficial for endpoint and server security.

There's room for improvement with Mac device installations, which can be challenging.

I have been using the tool for two years. 

About 20 people in our company use Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks across the country.

We've had some issues isolating endpoints and have sought support from Palo Alto for that.

The cost depends on your chosen license type, like Pro or other licenses.

I'd recommend using Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks for security purposes. It's good at detecting malware and is a better strategy than other antivirus solutions. I rate the overall solution a seven out of ten. 

Our company uses the solution to detect behaviors and provide difficulty remediation for malware. The solution acts like a terminal that allows for the renewal of malware directly from the terminal in any meeting room. 

We also have an IOP configuration that allows us to compare our own indicators and compromise rules. This is very efficient because anytime there is an IAP release on the web page, we can update or create a repository of different notification alerts. 

The solution is a new generation XDR that has a lot of artificial intelligence modules. 

The solution's communication methods are very effective. 

Configuring or eradicating terminals is easy. 

The server sometimes stops continuously to check things so it would be helpful to receive access updates or technical reasons. 

I have been using the solution for 18 months. 

Technical support was very responsive. You can present a critical configuration issue and they provide a solution as quickly as possible. 

The Linux agent was a little bit sketchy on our side but we got good support. 

The setup is very straightforward. 

We implemented the solution in-house and worked with one telecom rep for network permissions. 

Two of our cybersecurity engineers deployed to 4,000 endpoints in two months. We had a little bit of an issue with Linux but resolved it so all endpoints were fully operational within three months. 

The pricing is a little bit on the expensive side so is rated a seven out of ten. 

The solution is solid and measures up against other products. I rate the solution an eight out of ten. 

Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is an antivirus tool that provides EDR and XDR.

The solution's most valuable feature is the user interface. I've used other solutions like Cylance and CrowdStrike, but Cortex XDR stands out from all the products. It has also moved to XSIAM. Cortex XDR introduced it long ago, while other tools are implementing it now.

The solution lags to the real-time scenarios here and there.

The initial process is simple. It requires training of about three to four days to understand the installation process. It is deployed on the cloud. The number of software engineers required depends on the number of the endpoints.

We pay in advance for the product's license. It has reasonable pricing for the use cases it provides to the company. We can split this payment monthly, quarterly, or yearly, according to the customer's requirements. For a cost-benefit analysis when choosing a security solution, consider factors such as the number of attacks prevented, the impact of those attacks, potential losses, and other hidden costs.

I rate Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks for ten out of ten. It could be improved from a commercial perspective. It could approach the SMB market as well.

Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is the antivirus solution we use for Androids.

The solution's most valuable feature is its ability to rapidly detect certain hardware files.

All other features of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks are fine.

We have implemented a product that blocks USB usage and also provides device control for our company. 

Currently, we are monitoring all USB drives and ports but we would like to improve our device control capabilities. 

Although we are using this feature, we allow specific systems and USB devices. For example, we enable certain users to use external hard drives but we may disable them if necessary. However, due to the nature of our organization, we do not have a dedicated department for this task.

I have been working with Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks for approximately seven years.

We are working with the most recent version.

The stability of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is a nine out of ten.

I would rate the scalability of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks a ten out of ten.

In our organization, we have 2,700 licenses. Our users are mostly IT specialists.

Our organization is using the Cortex system across all platforms, including servers running Linux, Mac, and Windows operating systems.

Maintenance is done by the vendor.

Technical support is good.

We have also used them for Palo Alto Firewalls.

We do not have any issues with support, I would rate them a nine out of ten.

Previously, approximately one year ago, we used Kaspersky.

We are currently using both Kaspersky and Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks.

The installation process is straightforward, and the software itself is lightweight.

The installation process takes less than a minute.

Our license will require renewal in August, after which the maintenance will continue as usual.

I am not aware of the fees, it is handled by our financial department.

I would recommend this solution to others who are interested in using it.

I would rate Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks nine out of ten.

Cortex XDR is an artificial intelligence-based solution that automatically detects malicious activity performed by users or user machines, blocking it with the help of AI. We also create security policies on Cortex XDR that can be managed by Cortex XDR. Let's say that a company wants a security policy to work for a home user or VPN client user. It also includes an enterprise network at home.

User control in Cortex XDR allows users to restrict access to certain websites from a company laptop used over a home network. The solution allows control over the user and his machine through Cortex XDR security policies.

Cortex XDR is not that smart compared to Check Point. We also deal with Check Point. Check Point solutions, Check Point Firewall, Check Point solution WAF technology, or anti-virus technology can be considered smart because of Palo Alto. The detection of malicious activities performed by Check Point is good. Artificial intelligence is not a good match for Check Point because sometimes Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR does not detect malicious activity like in other anti-virus solutions like Trend Micro and Windows with Cisco.

I also want a better detection feature like the one in Check Point and any other anti-virus, for a matter of fact.

I am a consultant for the solution. I work with Palo Alto, our solution provider, and offer Cortex solutions and Palo Alto firewalls. We also sell Cortex XDR at Mac Global. It has been approximately six months to a year since I started working with this solution. Speaking about the version, it is the Cortex XDR client. Our responsibilities are centered around the client-based solution, including managing clients and installing software and rules. Palo Alto’s team manages the other aspects of the solution.

It is a stable solution since it is on the cloud. CPU utilization and hardware requirements are not necessary. According to some user licenses, when we purchase them, we get much utilization of hardware requirements through the cloud.

Cortex XDR is a scalable solution with around 500 to 600 users. User visibility, user policy, and security policy can be implemented in one view on Cortex XDR. The approximate number of clients constantly using Cortex XDR is between 200 to 250.

I am working with iDream Networks, and we are partners of Palo Alto Networks.

I will give 50 out of 100 points since the setup of Cortex XDR is neither too easy nor too difficult to implement. Its dashboard is very easy to manage since no other sites need to be opened to manage it. Also, it can be managed from anywhere. I am not involved in the deployment process as I only manage the solution.

The configuration and implementation are done by Palo Alto’s team.

Licensing for Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR can be costly, especially when it comes to a hundred users. A license is required for each user, and the subscription must be renewed on a yearly basis.

I recommend Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR as a dependable option for future requirements. Cyberattacks are on the rise, and so that's why I have Palo Alto’s XDR. I also suggest Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR to all customers. On a scale of 100, I rate this solution at 85, and on a scale of one to ten, I give it an eight.
