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.

Reliable threat protection is achieved while integration and analysis capabilities need refinement

Cisco Secure Endpoint is very good in machine learning, which allows it to secure offline contents even if not connected to the internet. We haven't encountered a single breach after it's deployed. It controls USB devices and has a separate antivirus solution called Tetra, providing security even for real-time, day-zero attacks through its strong Talos threat intelligence platform.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The tool's use cases are relevant to security."

"The stability of the solution is very good. We have about 100 users on it right now, and we use it twice a week."

"The one feature of Palo Alto Networks Traps that our organization finds most valuable is the App ID service."

"Cortex is a very good total solution on the endpoints."

"It is a simple platform to use."

"After installing this solution, it identified, blocked, and provided the complete attack chain, which was very helpful."

"Previously, we had to install endpoint protection per machine and then scan and update, but Cortex XDR basically does that centrally and predictably, so we have more time to do day-to-day work rather than spend time chasing those endpoints."

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

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"With Cisco Secure Endpoint, we now have visibility over what is happening on the endpoint side."

"The most valuable feature at this moment is that Cisco AMP or Cisco Secure Endpoint solution is delivering a lot of things, and I always say to a lot of customers that if we didn't have Cisco AMP, we probably would have had ransomware somewhere. So, it's protecting us very well from a lot of hackers, malware, and especially ransomware."

"Scalability wise, AMP is a sure shot recommendation."

"If somebody has been compromised, the question always is: How has it affected other devices in the network? Cisco AMP gives you a very neat view of that."

"I am really satisfied with the technical support."

"The Cisco environment has been perfect."

"The most valuable feature of the solution is its technical support."

"The solution makes it possible to see a threat once and block it everywhere across all endpoints and the entire security platform. It has the ability to block right down to the file and application level across all devices based on policies, such as, blacklisting and whitelisting of software and applications. This is good. Its strength is the ability to identify threats very quickly, then lock them and the network down and block the threats across the organization and all devices, which is what you want. You don't want to be spending time working out how to block something. You want to block something very quickly, letting that flow through to all the devices and avoiding the same scenario on different operating systems."

More Cisco Secure Endpoint pros

"There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management."

"The solution is stable."

"With Seqrite, it is completely protected, and we have full control over what is happening on the end user's laptop."

"Seqrite Endpoint Security provides external protection in terms of hard drives."

"We were excited about the cloud-based management features of Seqrite and were looking to use the same."

"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 convenience has been great."

"The overall performance of the server and the dashboard are the most interesting aspects of the solution."

More Seqrite Endpoint Security pros

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."

"It is a complex solution to implement."

"There's an overall lack of features."

"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."

"It should support more mobile operating systems. That is one of the cons of their infrastructure right now."

"It automatically detects security issues. It should be able to protect our network devices while operating autonomously."

"Initially, we got to have a lot of false positives when we onboarded, but nowadays it's quite smooth."

"Cortex XDR could improve its sales support team, including better commission structures and referral programs."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"We don't have issues. We think that Cisco covers all of the security aspects on the market. They continue to innovate in the right way."

"I would recommend that the solution offer more availability in terms of the product portfolio and integration with third-party products."

"It could be improved in connection with artificial intelligence and IoT."

"Integration and dashboard are areas with certain shortcomings in Cisco Secure Endpoint."

"Cisco is good in terms of threat intelligence plus machine learning-based solutions, but we feel Cisco is lagging behind in using artificial intelligence in its systems."

"The user interface is dull."

"It cannot currently block URLs over websites."

"The pricing policy could be more competitive, similar to Cisco's offerings."

More Cisco Secure Endpoint cons

"The solution could improve by providing better security and a cloud base version."

"The solution could integrate with other products to provide a comprehensive protection strategy."

"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."

"Endpoint Security would be improved by adding DLP."

"The solution's integration capabilities are moderate and could be improved."

"I would like to see Seqrite add a remote profile so we can implement different policies for users connecting to the in-office LAN and those accessing the office network from home or a public internet connection."

"User management is not that good currently, and so we have trouble with handling user management."

"The cost of the solution can be improved."

More Seqrite Endpoint Security cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Its pricing is kind of in line with its competitors and everybody else out there."

"I am using the Community edition."

"The price was fine."

"If one wishes to work with another team or large number of users at a future point, he must purchase a license for them."

"The price of the product is not very economical."

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

"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."

"The tool's price is moderate."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pricing and cost advice

"Pricing can be more expensive than similar software that does less functionality, but not recognized by customers."

"The pricing and licensing are reasonable. The cost of AMP for Endpoints is inline with all the other software that has a monthly endpoint cost. It might be a little bit higher than other antivirus type products, but we're only talking about a dollar a month per user. I don't see that cost as being an issue if it's going to give us the confidence and security that we're looking for. We have had a lot of success and happiness with what we're using, so there's no point in changing."

"Pricing is a big issue."

"The costs of 50 licenses of AMP for three years is around $9,360."

"We can know if something bad is potentially happening instantaneously and prevent it from happening. We can go to a device and isolate it before it infects other devices. In our environment, that's millions of dollars saved in a matter of seconds."

"Our company was very happy with the price of Cisco AMP. It was about a third of what we were paying for System Center Endpoint Protection."

"Cisco Secure Endpoint is not too expensive and it's not cheap. It's quite fair."

"There are a couple of different consumption models: Pay up front, or if you have an enterprise agreement, you can do a monthly thing. Check your licensing possibilities and see what's best for your organization."

More Cisco Secure Endpoint pricing and cost advice

"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."

"Endpoint Security is cheaper than Trend Micro."

"Licensing fees are on a yearly basis. Compared to other solutions, this solution is cheaper."

"The license isn't expensive."

"The solution's pricing is good for us, where it is neither cheap nor expensive."

"The licensing fee is 200 Bangladeshi Taka per client per year."

"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."

"You need to pay for a yearly license for Seqrite Endpoint Security, which is expensive."
