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.

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.

Centralized policies have improved remote endpoint control and have simplified data visibility
The integration is not simple and easy. It requires experienced users or people who have done the implementation. When certain policies are applied, they do not immediately push the policies. For example, we manage endpoint device USB access. We set a policy to block it, but it does not come into effect immediately. Sometimes it takes three or four days for it to reflect. That is a pain point. I have raised this issue with support as well, but they said that I need to limit the number of devices in the policy. In terms of application deployment, for us, it was seamless.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Cortex XDR lets us manage several clients from the same console, and its endpoint defense is more advanced than traditional antivirus."
"The management capabilities, allow an IT organization to get quite a good picture of attempted cyber attacks."
"These days it's machine-learning technology and behavior-based analytics features that make us more secure."
"The solution allows us to gain remote access without the user's knowledge and take the necessary actions on the device."
"It blocks malicious files, prevents attacks, and doesn't require many updates because it is a very light application."
"But overall, when we speak about security and protection, they are one of the top providers."
"The product is mostly automated, and we do not have to make decisions, because all the decisions are made by the product itself and we are not required to create any custom policies since the policies that are created are well defined in the product itself."
"If you are looking to deploy a security solution as a whole, this is a good option."
"If you get attacked, your files will be safe, and you can work on your infected files."
"Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection allows our organization's clients to be managed and inventoried remotely."
"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."
"The big advantage is that it has a sandbox if something bad comes into it."
"They offer the whole package. Remote monitoring and management (RMM) is included with it, which is pretty nice."
"The most valuable feature is the management of end-user machines."
"The most valuable feature is the management of end-user machines."
"Containment is the best feature of the solution."
"The product is granular and can build complex roles compared to other EDR vendors."
"Tanium is stable and it is also lightweight."
"Tanium's most valuable feature is its instant discovery aspect."
"It's definitely not complex, it is pretty user-friendly and it's a solid tool enterprise to use."
"Tanium is used for endpoint management, specifically patching and configuration management."
"Tanium is highly scalable."
"When I push a quick update, it's done right away, and I can rescan immediately to confirm completion within minutes."
"Tanium is a very good product and I would rate it eight or nine out of ten."
 

Cons

"A better pricing plan would make this product more competitive."
"It is not a suitable solution if you are looking for a single product with multiple features such as DLP, encryption, rollback, etc."
"I don't like that they have different types of licenses. For example, if users select a license, they think they will have all the platforms they need to improve their network or security. But after some time, Palo Alto Networks changed their licensing, and some of the features that, for example, were free at the beginning now have a cost. I think the integration can be improved. For example, a lot of tools are just integrated through APIs."
"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."
"Whenever the tool releases a new version when deploying the product across the organization, I feel like there are some disturbances in the CPU usage after upgrading the tool to the latest version."
"There are some third-party solutions that are difficult to integrate with, which is something that can be improved."
"While using Cortex, I noticed some aspects that could be improved, such as increasing the synchronization speed between XDR and Xnor."
"The main issue I could point out is the offline agents and the way that it is missing."
"Their support is not very good because they are very late to reply."
"We'd like the solution to include advanced web filtering capabilities, similar to what Sophos offers."
"Some competing products outperform Comodo in this area."
"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."
"Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection could improve by extending its auto containment feature to Mac and Linux systems since it currently only supports Windows."
"They need to enhance the performance of the agents. Currently, the performance is going low when the agent starts a full scan."
"They need to just modernize the infrastructure with something that is next-generation."
"The product must provide a web filter to block websites based on specific categories."
"Tanium required local admin or root rights on Mac devices, which did not comply with our security policies. This made the solution less suitable for our restrictive environment."
"The performance could improve in future releases. We have had performance issues in specialized web environments, but overall I think the problems are less than 2% of the computer systems being used."
"It is not really additional functions, or the features that are needed, rather the complexity would be reduced based on the number of modules required to put together a comprehensive operational security and risk compliance model."
"Any movement into a SaaS solution has challenges since the processes and data flows are not well defined. Hence, you need to build it at the same time."
"Tanium's limitations should be improved because although it is a great tool, it is limited to only a few classes during a session."
"Tanium’s scalability could be improved."
"They could improve the UI."
"We set a policy to block USB access. The moment a device is being set up on the network, I apply the policy, but it does not come into effect immediately."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It has a higher cost than other solutions, like CrowdStrike or Microsoft’s EDR tools, but it reduces the cost of our operations because it’s a new generation antivirus tool."
"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."
"Its pricing is kind of in line with its competitors and everybody else out there."
"We didn't have to pay any additional fee for the cloud instance. It just came with the renewal, which was nice."
"When we first bought it, it was a bit expensive, but it was worth it. The licensing was straightforward."
"We pay about $50,000 USD per year for a bundle that includes Cortex XDR."
"I don't recall what the cost was, but it wasn't really that expensive."
"Every customer has to pay for a license because it doesn't work with what you get from a managed services provider."
"The product is very reasonably priced."
"It was about 35 or 40 bucks per year for the endpoint."
"Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection is inexpensive."
"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."
"The tool's pricing is not very expensive and falls within the market price. The solution's licensing is on a yearly basis."
"I rate Comodo’s pricing a four out of ten."
"Generally, the cost is between $16 and $19 per endpoint."
"It's a cost-effective solution"
"The solution is expensive but it's a good investment."
"The product's pricing differs from region to region depending on negotiations and the number of endpoints."
"There is an annual license required to use this solution."
