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.

A way for users to manage their credentials on the go using a stable, and scalable app

I give the solution an eight out of ten. It's hard to comment on the number of users because the feature is completely for corporate employees who have Blackberry devices, so it's hard to track how many users there are. I advise making your decision to use the solution based on the usage in the company or the demand of the business, which you are running based on the demand.

Remote Access Security Reinforced with Real-Time Device Protection

Dashboard customization is needed for improvements. While the centralized management is strong, the dashboard could offer more flexibility. It would be helpful to tailor views for different roles, such as IT or security support. Regarding needed improvements, custom report building could be enhanced. Current reports are informative, and a drag-and-drop builder would allow teams to create tailored views for compliance, executive summaries, or operational metrics. For further improvements, enhancing threat simulation and testing would be valuable. Building a threat simulation tool and adding native capabilities to simulate phishing, malware, or ransomware scenarios will help teams validate protection and train users without relying on third-party tools.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This software helps us understand any issues that may arise when someone is not at work."

"Palo Alto is one of the tech vendors that always provides top-of-the-line products."

"I recommend this solution to others because it is easy to manage, reliable, and overall good to use."

"We have found in our test Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks to be a very good tool."

"Has great threat detection capabilities."

"We use Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks for its ability to detect based on behavior rather than simple virus scan to prevent malicious activities."

"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."

"From a single pane of glass, you can easily manage all of your endpoints."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"The solution is very easy to set up."

"The resetting option and creating a password is a very useful on-the-go feature, which gives a user a good experience, obviously a hassle-free experience."

"The mail is without a doubt the most valuable."

"Their technical support is actually quite good."

"This is a good product and one that I recommend."

"This solution has become a great ally for the prevention of threats and security problems caused by viruses such as ransomware, and we are protected against threats, which is of great value."

Cons

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks could improve its user interface, which is more complicated compared to competitors such as SentinelOne."

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

"A potential area of improvement for Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is the cost."

"While using Cortex, I noticed some aspects that could be improved, such as increasing the synchronization speed between XDR and Xnor."

"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."

"I would like to see them include NDR (Network Detection Response). Then it would work well with SIEM Response."

"It would be better if they could educate the customers more. Some sort of seminars and roadshows will help educate the customers and show what the product can do. The price could be better. It would also help if they had a team for deployment and support."

"Fine-tuning the detection policy requires experience because the policy is very complex in Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, and we get high false positive alerts."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"The user interface could be improved. It was clunky at times."

"The solution can be improved by adding more features in which the content could be synced."

"The agent's size is very heavy, so it could be reduced to a lighter version for Check Point Harmony Endpoint."

"We'd like them to include more learning-type notifications to users when detecting any eventuality or attack on their computers in order to educate them and teach them about this type of incident."

"I still don't have a clear opinion of the possible improvements that the tool may need. There are still functionalities that I have not been able to try completely and I would like to spend more time using the tool before offering an opinion to the IT Central community on this point."

"It needs more documentation and better ease of deployment."

"The product updates are a manual process for my administrator and can take several hours out of his day."

"The dashboarding for Check Point Harmony Endpoint could be improved."

"Sometimes the Check Point Harmony Endpoint performance slows down when we use scanning and update sessions."

"I think some work needs to be done to improve the integration with other third-party products, namely SIEM solutions."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is $55 to $90 USD per endpoint per month."

"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."

"We didn't have to pay any additional fee for the cloud instance. It just came with the renewal, which was nice."

"The pricing is okay, although direct support can be expensive."

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is an expensive solution."

"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."

"I don't recall what the cost was, but it wasn't really that expensive."

"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."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pricing and cost advice

"We had a licensing package of $500,000 for three years."

"I am not able to remember the amount, but users have to subscribe for a certain amount, so once they subscribe, the amount gets sent."

"We pay on an annual basis. There are no additional fees, they mostly tell us what we have to pay. We have budgeted for it."

"Price-wise, the product is affordable. There are no additional costs apart from the licensing charges that are attached to the product."

"Initial monies replacing all AVs with a single product is about £10k."

"The licensing cost for Check Point is $3 USD or $4 USD per end-user."

"The tool’s cost has increased by almost 300% in two years."

"I rate the product price a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."

"The product is averagely priced. The product price is neither very high nor too low. The tool is not really expensive."

"Check Point Antivirus is an expensive solution, especially for clients that don't have as many endpoints. Check Point Antivirus has a free trial for one month, and within the trial period, there's no limit to the number of endpoints it can support, but when the trial expires, you'll have to buy the license, which covers one year. You can't buy a license for the solution without being a Check Point partner first."
