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.

Doesn't have daily updates, which is important for healthcare IT
I face challenges with the exclusion policy - it still scans folders we told it not to, causing issues. When we contact support, they tell us to update the latest agent, but we can't do that immediately due to medical device protocols and validation testing. I wish support would try to understand our issues better instead of giving this standard response. The machine learning feature they use often tells us to upgrade the agent or add things to the exclusion list, which isn't unacceptable. It's a very good and new technology as a tool and antivirus. But sometimes, it doesn't work properly with our medical devices and products, quarantining files it shouldn't even after we add them to exclusions. This is tricky for us.

Ransomware protection has made data security reliable and efficient
There are not many disadvantages, but they need to do some work on DLP integration. Support could be improved. Sometimes it is difficult to find exact solutions, and people occasionally get stuck, resulting in delayed responses. The main areas for improvement are support responsiveness and the additional enhancement with the DLP integration.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The behavior-based detection feature is valuable."
"The most valuable feature of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is the low consumption of system resources. The solution uses a lot of AI and machine learning."
"Based on my experience with Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, I highly recommend it due to its quick response to zero-day attacks and low utilization from end-user devices."
"The most valuable for us is the correlation feature."
"The main benefit of using Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks while employing Palo Alto Firewall at the internet edge is that it improves security on our endpoint devices, integrating seamlessly with Palo Alto Firewalls to deliver comprehensive network, analyst, and security details all in a single dashboard, which allows us to manage everything from our network devices."
"The normal protection was really effective, and we detected situations that if we didn't have Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, it's highly likely that we would have been affected, but it protected the infrastructure."
"This software helps us understand any issues that may arise when someone is not at work."
"It collects and caches and the knowledge of machine learning from different customers to take to the cloud, it makes it better to use for everybody, it allows for quick learning and updates and can, therefore, offer zero-day malware security, and this sharing of metadata helps make the solution very safe."
"CylancePROTECT works on AI technology, is always up to date, and uses very few resources on your devices."
"​Very easy to deploy. It can be done one by one or deployed by customizing an MSI file for GPO push.​"
"The stability is perfect, and it is leaps and bounds beyond our previous solution by McAfee."
"What's most valuable in CylancePROTECT is the optics feature. I also like its easy-to-use and user-friendly dashboard and monitoring system."
"It is a good endpoint solution. It is very easy to manage and detect the threat immediately. It will take the necessary actions."
"It handles situations that the other threat management tools wouldn't find. It has worked well covering the weaker sides of the other products that we're integrating."
"The solution is stable; it was no problem and all went quite well, with no bugs or freezes."
"The solution is pretty easy to scale."
"It's user-friendly, compatible, and accessible."
"They offer the whole package. Remote monitoring and management (RMM) is included with it, which is pretty nice. They also have Windows patching and third-party patching. It was easy to use for protection. The containment engine was pretty nice for securing our environment."
"It's stable and reliable."
"Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection allows our organization's clients to be managed and inventoried remotely."
"The tool is an open-source EDR with antivirus features. It also has remote support and patch management."
"The big advantage is that it has a sandbox if something bad comes into it."
"The most valuable feature is the management of end-user machines."
"If you open up an application or a web browser, it puts a container in a sandbox area. So if there's some malicious code, it'll stick there. It also has way better protection for ransomware because it uses heuristics that are pretty effective. We've done a lot of tests with live malware, and it works really well."
 

Cons

"Currently, we are monitoring all USB drives and ports but we would like to improve our device control capabilities."
"Being able to filter the events to see those that are related to the actual alert would save time spent by the engineer."
"They have the worst support, as a company, that I have ever worked with, as they are difficult to get a hold of and keep on the phone. They don't know what they are talking about when you get them on the phone. They don't like to respond to messages when you send them to them. They like to "research problems" for weeks on end, then pass you off to somebody else."
"There are some default policies which sometimes affect our applications and cause them to run around. In the hotel industry, we use a different type of data versus Oracle and SQL. By default, there are some policies which stop us from running properly. Because of this, the support level is also not that strong. We have to wait to get a results."
"In the next release, I would like to see more UI improvements. Their UI is a bit basic. When we are speaking about Palo Alto Networks they are the big company, so they can improve the UI a little bit. The UI, the reports, the log system can all be improved."
"It tends to do 99.9% of things. The only thing I'd like is single sign-on authentication into their cloud platform so that my users can be properly authenticated against it."
"The encryption is not up to the mark."
"The tool needs to be improved in terms of integration and interface."
"The product does not do a lot of reporting on what it is taking care of. Enhanced reporting would be a welcome improvement."
"If they can add more features on top of their Persona feature that would be ideal."
"​It needs real analysis of quarantined files. The EDR product isn't showing much right now."
"Making the dashboards a bit modern to make them easier to search would also be helpful."
"The management console needs a little maturity in how it presents data and allows the administrator to drill down or search across systems."
"For advanced security, I wouldn't."
"I would like to see them fix the alerting system so that the endpoint reporting is a bit more streamlined."
"I would not rate this solution in the top five for things like presenting information, or ease of use."
"They need to just modernize the infrastructure with something that is next-generation. We have recently moved to SentinelOne. It had been doing good for us for a while, but we needed something modern with new technology."
"Would be good to have a better understanding of what it is that you've got in quarantine."
"We'd like the solution to include advanced web filtering capabilities, similar to what Sophos offers."
"There could be MDRM features added to the product."
"The solution's online documentation needs to be fine-tuned. It is not up to which solution currently has. There is some inconsistency in the knowledge present. I would like to see MDM in the solution's future releases."
"Some competing products outperform Comodo in this area."
"The downside of the product stems from the fact that it is still an unknown product in the market. Comodo needs to invest more in advertisements and promotions."
"There are a few minor issues such as package updates and passwords."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution could be reduced. I have customers that have voiced that the solution is good for the value but if I want to sell more of the solution the price reduction would help."
"Our customers have expressed that the price is high."
"The pricing is a little high. It is per user per year."
"Traps pays for itself within the first 16 months of a three-year subscription. This is attributed to OPEX savings, as security teams spent less time trying to identify and isolate malware for analysis as a result of a reduction in malware incidents, false positives, and breach avoidance."
"If one wishes to work with another team or large number of users at a future point, he must purchase a license for them."
"Cortex XDR’s pricing is very reasonable."
"This is an expensive solution."
"The pricing seems fair, and I do like the licensing model. You use wherever they are, and it is elastic."
"We went through a third party initially to do the renewal, but we won't be renewing, we will move on to something else."
"CylancePROTECT is an affordable solution."
"It's not so heavily priced; rather, it's average and decent."
"The product cost is about $5, per user, per month."
"​Shop around for sure and be assured the price you pay will be close to other solutions available, but even at a slight mark-up from the other solutions, you are getting real endpoint protection versus nothing more than a cheap security blanket that might keep you warm at night."
"My company is on a yearly CylancePROTECT subscription. Price-wise, the solution is slightly expensive, so I'd rate it as eight out of ten."
"It is expensive, but not unreasonable."
"Review closely how many endpoints you actually need before buying into a pricing level. Deal and deal with the VAR of your choice."
"The product is very reasonably priced."
"Generally, the cost is between $16 and $19 per endpoint."
"It was about 35 or 40 bucks per year for the endpoint."
"The price of this product should be lower."
"Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection is inexpensive."
"It's a cost-effective solution"
"I rate Comodo’s pricing a four out of ten."
"I rate the pricing a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive. The product can be considered fairly cheap."
