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.

Support at a security firm with 51-200 employees
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.

Reduces the time to detect and respond with moderate pricing
The centralized control feature is excellent. It provides a user-friendly interface for managing items and active endpoints, making it easy for central managers to control the network. I recommend it, but we need some documentation or a presentation from Seqrite. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The tool is designed to scale for large enterprises and handle large volumes of data."
"It'll not slow down your system when compared to others."
"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 best feature of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is that it collects logs from different sections such as the endpoint, the network, and the cloud, making it easy to investigate alerts, collect some of the investigation packages related to the infected machines, and provide live response."
"From the Palo Alto side, whatever they buy, they integrate that really well into their integration suite, and that makes a massive difference."
"It's a perfect solution. It integrates well into the environment."
"We use it for malicious connections from malicious websites, to identify payloads that might be inside the traffic, to identify malicious processes or bugs that are running on the network, and any activities that tend to lead to data infiltration."
"I generally believe that Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is probably the best in the market right now."
"A good endpoint security product must be able to be flexible in both deployments and across multiple OS versions, and Check Point Harmony Endpoint does that for us."
"The communication with the console is very dynamic and remote, without the need to return to the computer locally."
"The solution offers multiple features in one solution, along with data detection."
"If you have Check Point firewalls on your infrastructure, this is the best solution to deploy because it's just to enable a Blade."
"The Check Point SandBlast solution, also known as Harmony Endpoint, is able to detect, block, monitor, and respond to any malicious activity that happens on the endpoint."
"Administratively, it's easy to control."
"The most valuable feature is the Zero-day protection, which covers our on-premises users, and well as those users who are outside of our network."
"For us, the most valuable feature of Check Point Antivirus is the real-time detection scan that monitors files as they are accessed."
"The solution installs very easily."
"Seqrite has significantly reduced the time it takes to detect and respond."
 

Cons

"In an upcoming release, the solution could improve by proving hard disk encryption. If it could support this it would be a complete solution."
"The connection to the internet has not performed as expected."
"The dashboard could use some significant improvement, just making it more useful with more information. It has a limited amount of information right now. It is customizable, but I'd love to see a better out-of-box dashboard."
"The server sometimes stops continuously to check things so it would be helpful to receive access updates or technical reasons."
"The solution should enhance the ADR and reporting."
"The playbooks could be improved to include more functionalities or actions."
"There are some default policies which sometimes affect our applications and cause them to run around."
"The installation should be easier and the Palo Alto pre-sales and sales teams should have more information on the product because they don't know what they are selling."
"The documentation of Check Point Harmony Endpoint needs improvement because it is very hard to find on the internet and it is not intuitive."
"The agent's size is very heavy, so it could be reduced to a lighter version for Check Point Harmony Endpoint."
"Check Point Antivirus' performance could be faster. It needs to include app-based support to upload screenshots of issues. It needs to add timely and regular updates. The dashboards and reporting features need to offer more efficiency."
"There are some pain points with automated rules in Check Point Harmony Endpoint. In the initial stages, you sometimes have to do fine-tuning because you get false positives, resulting in users being unable to connect."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint poses a steep learning curve and has high resource consumption, requiring high-performance PCs on our endpoint site."
"To improve Check Point Harmony Endpoint, I believe the DLP feature needs enhancement because many SMB customers seek a single solution that includes both EDR and DLP to meet regulations."
"The heartbeat interval must be improved."
"Check Point users a pattern-based security module, which is something that can be improved."
"The security is too week and needs improvement."
"The solution should focus on security, documentation, and simplicity for beginners."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We pay about $50,000 USD per year for a bundle that includes Cortex XDR."
"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."
"Our license will require renewal in August, after which the maintenance will continue as usual."
"Very costly product."
"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."
"The tool's price is moderate."
"The solution is expensive. It's pricing is on a yearly-basis."
"The pricing is okay, although direct support can be expensive."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint is an expensive solution. My company's clients pay INR 1,000 for each user of the product, while Check Point also provides an option to pay INR 2,300 for three years."
"There are three different licensing models including basic, advanced, and complete, and it needs to be selected according to the endpoint."
"Price-wise, the product is affordable. There are no additional costs apart from the licensing charges that are attached to the product."
"The solution is reasonable, but there are cheaper solutions out there."
"I bought them for 12 months and I genuinely cannot remember what I paid for them. I think it's about 100 pounds per user per year, so about 10 pounds a month per person."
"In comparison to other software solutions available on the market, it comes at a higher price point."
"Check Point Antivirus is a good solution, but it's a little costly."
"I rate Check Point Harmony Endpoint's pricing a seven out of ten because it is a little high."
