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.

Delivers lightweight protection while facing challenges with technical aspects
I have been working with Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security for quite a long time, but recently, I do not appreciate their changes, especially on the technical side. They moved some portions to remote GUI-based interfaces. The Command Line Interface (CLI) is not improving. Even experienced personnel are finding it difficult. There is a power user function where you can stop it temporarily for installing applications. Previously, we had the option to click on the power user button and enter the password to allow stopping that particular function. Now, we have to do it via CLI, which even technical personnel struggle to understand. Currently, everything is working fine except for the technical aspects we can control. If they can revert to the old system, that would be much better. When we raise this issue with Bitdefender, they cite security reasons for the change. However, while Cisco is moving away from CLI to GUI, Bitdefender is moving backward. Normal users cannot handle these CLI operations effectively.

With DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities, the solution also offers great technical support
The most valuable features of the solution are DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities. It is a lightweight solution with good features, allowing for application control. The solution also offers good DLP features, and our company recently upgraded to use its XDR features. The solution's XDR features work smoothly in our company. With the lightweight nature of the solution and its features, my team was required to deploy the solution in our company. Our company also receives good support from Seqrite, which was one of the main reasons we chose the solution since we could get help if we faced any issues with the solution.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"From a single pane of glass, you can easily manage all of your endpoints."
"After deploying Traps, we saw the performance of the network improve by 65 to 70 percent."
"Stability is one of the features we like the most."
"Cortex is the best tool for endpoint detection, and I have used it to verify hashes or domains to identify malicious activity, trigger playbooks that automate and gather endpoint logs, block malicious processes, and update incident tickets, showcasing end-to-end processes with automation in investigation and reducing the analysis workflow."
"Stability-wise, it is good; I did not hear about any issues in terms of stability, and Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks can be trusted completely."
"Cortex XDR can integrate the firewalls and determine the tendencies of the attacks. It's a new generation antivirus, with protection endpoints and detection response. It is very easy to use and everybody can operate the solution."
"The anti-exploit is impenetrable. We chose Traps because it is the only product that we were not able to get anything past."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is specifically designed to prevent zero-day attacks and is part of an ecosystem of Palo Alto, providing customers with a long-term vision to modify and redesign how security is applied in their company."
"We find the protection the solution provides valuable."
"The most valuable feature is the IDS."
"My advice to others looking into implementing Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security is that it's a cost-effective system and it's quite reliable."
"It takes lesser energy from the system than the rest. So, we tried it for five years, and it works quite well. So we have continued with it. And the pricing is competitive as well."
"Bitdefender is also customizable and granular, but once you install it, it keeps running."
"The most valuable features of Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security are remote administration and deployment, comprehensive firewall protection, malware protection, and antivirus."
"BitDefender has improved our security by protecting our endpoints and servers from viruses and exchange server attacks with its inbuilt on access scan feature."
"The tool has a firewall module to control traffic. It also has a feature to map incidents and provide information about attackers and the environment."
"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 most valuable features of the solution are DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities."
"The update process and policy control are good."
"The solution is stable."
"We found the DLP to be innovative and useful."
"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 overall performance of the server and the dashboard are the most interesting aspects of the solution."
"With Seqrite, it is completely protected, and we have full control over what is happening on the end user's laptop."
 

Cons

"For working with the solution, you only really need a web browser, however, we've found that working on Chrome, for example, is horrible."
"This is a very costly product."
"Cortex XDR could improve its sales support team, including better commission structures and referral programs."
"A potential area of improvement for Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is the cost."
"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."
"The negative aspect I see is the economic model used by Palo Alto."
"The tool needs to be improved in terms of integration and interface."
"I would like to see them include NDR (Network Detection Response). Then it would work well with SIEM Response."
"Because we bought Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security via Rectron as a distributor, they need to upskill their distributors."
"The solution's stability could be better."
"I think it would be helpful if I could get a live console directly on the machine. Additionally, if I could run scripts on the machines to respond to any incidents, that would be a great feature."
"At this point in time, the download footprint is a bit big. What I mean is the initial file I download to deploy on end-user devices is about six hundred to seven hundred megabytes, and it should be scaled down to an agent size of maybe less than one hundred megabytes, max."
"I like the Application Control feature, but it's a bit tricky. Managing it can be a bit cumbersome sometimes."
"The dashboard can be improved."
"We had experienced a crash and had to reinstall it."
"My main concern is that it's a bit heavy for some devices. Like Kaspersky or McAfee, it uses more RAM or memory. Similar to that, it causes issues for users and their own resources, similar to that. If you deploy on old legacy devices with only 1GB of RAM, then it could be a problem."
"The stability is zero, Seqrite doesn't work, and the company doesn't accept the problems."
"The cost of the solution can be improved."
"User management could be improved."
"I don't feel that the scalability part of Seqrite Endpoint Security is better than the other products in the market."
"Deployment of Seqrite Endpoint Security is generally straightforward. The only complexity we encounter is that, since it is cloud-based, there can be delays in updating the endpoint's status."
"When it comes to the support provided by the product, I see that Seqrite is not as mature as the other products in the market."
"The solution's integration capabilities are moderate and could be improved."
"When we fire any employee connected remotely over the internet, we need a security feature that blocks the system and the device."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"In terms of the cost Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is very expensive because we are a Mexican company and when you translate dollars to pesos the cost is very high. The solution is very expensive for Mexican companies. I understand that they have international prices, but I do not think it offsets the price enough for many companies in countries, such as Mexico. The amount it is reduced is not a massive percentage."
"It has a yearly renewal."
"It's the most expensive solution, but features-wise, it's quite strong. It's very good for protection, so the results are very good in the case of protection. I would rate it a two out of ten in terms of pricing."
"It's way too expensive, but security is expensive. You pay for your licensing, and then you pay for someone to monitor the stuff."
"Our customers have expressed that the price is high."
"I am using the Community edition."
"The price of the product is not very economical."
"This is an expensive solution."
"We purchase the solution for three or five-year intervals. We paid approximately $150 for 10 to 15 users."
"There are many licensing options available, we have been on monthly agreements and other volume contract agreements."
"The pricing is reasonable when I compare it to other security solutions, particularly Kaspersky, it stands out. It offers an excellent solution at a more favorable price point."
"The tool's pricing structure is good. We use an annual subscription."
"The tool is not expensive and pricing is competitive."
"The product's pricing is okay and it is yearly."
"The license is yearly."
"You don't have to pay extra after buying the product."
"There is no option to refund the money and unfortunately, we bought a three-year license, seeing that Quick Heal is a long-established player in the market."
"It is a cheaply priced product."
"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."
"The licensing fee is 200 Bangladeshi Taka per client per year."
"We get the tool for around 1200 rupees for a three-year subscription. I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
"The solution's pricing is good for us, where it is neither cheap nor expensive."
"Licensing fees are on a yearly basis. Compared to other solutions, this solution is cheaper."
"The pricing is reasonable."
