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.

Auto scanning and enhanced security but re-adding protections need improvement
At that time, we observed certain issues with the product. The functionalities could be improved, such as the isolation feature. If we remove our protection, we cannot easily add it back. If, in our organization, we need to remove a specific system for a particular time, we cannot add it back for security after doing so. This is one thing we have experienced. Scalability is also lacking. If we want to do the same thing repeatedly, there's not much the solution offers; it isn't very strong.

Using cloud-based console for software inventory management and email alerts
I have no idea if I use some automation functions. I can't find any disadvantages; maybe that is because many companies haven't used it. I would prefer to see some features such as AI in antivirus solutions. I appreciate reporting, but it could be better with monthly reporting or auto-generated monthly reports.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is a simple platform to use."
"The live terminal is probably the best thing ever. It gives you the access to get straight onto any machine."
"The solution allows us to make investigations. Other XDR solutions also provide similar capabilities but for investigation, Cortex XDR is better."
"It has absolutely improved the way our organization functions, we are more secure, it is giving us more peace of mind, and it has found malicious activity happening on our endpoints that probably would not have been detected if we didn't have it."
"We have a complete overview of all our PCs and it's very easy to handle and to use the interface. It has a lot of benefits for us."
"Palo Alto is the core of the security infrastructure in the environment."
"I recommend this solution to others because it is easy to manage, reliable, and overall good to use."
"Monitoring is most valuable."
"The auto-scanning feature is quite beneficial."
"The auto-scanning feature is quite beneficial."
"I can put tons of load on it."
"It's quite easy to manage, which is a good thing."
"The core functionality of the product is very impressive and I recommend that people use it."
"The patch management module is very important."
"The protection from malware is the most important feature. It has some endpoint information about the vehicle of the virus, malware, etc. It is also stable and easy to install, and they also provide good technical support."
"We have control over our devices, specifically USB ports, allowing us to block or control the traffic."
"The technical support staff is well trained and very skillful, and I find them to be very supportive."
"Reduced the number of malware/virus issue encounters and dashboard alerts providing better visibility."
 

Cons

"It takes time to scan the servers and devices."
"While using Cortex, I noticed some aspects that could be improved, such as increasing the synchronization speed between XDR and Xnor."
"I would like to see some additional features related to email protection included."
"The deployment is pretty hard."
"It's more focused on network communication. If a customer wants to increase the level of protection and start working with documents, it's impossible to integrate these features into the system. It's more of a communication-oriented system than a content security-oriented system."
"There are a large number of false positives."
"The technical support is not very good. I find the process difficult."
"One thing that was missing was the integration part. Currently, they don't have out-of-box integration with IBM QRadar, or if they have the integration, the integration doesn't work well."
"Scalability is lacking. If we want to do the same thing repeatedly, there's not much the solution offers; it isn't very strong."
"The functionalities could be improved, such as the isolation feature."
"The categories in the web filtering should be more comprehensive."
"Panda Security Adaptive Defense’s stability could be improved."
"WatchGuard EPDR does have areas for improvement. One significant gap is the lack of a virtual patching feature integrated into the endpoint security. This would be particularly useful for endpoints running operating systems that are no longer supported, such as Windows 7."
"The product can improve in several ways."
"It needs improvements in its EDR and its ability to manage all the nodes. I'd like better communication between the console and the nodes, so I don't have to remote into each individual machine that's having an issue with the protection."
"Panda is the most painful endpoint solution I've ever had to work with except SentinelOne."
"They need to expand their offering of add-ons to enhance capabilities further."
"Panda Adaptive Defense 360 is not compatible with certain network devices like access points, switches, or routers, which would be an area for improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Its pricing is kind of in line with its competitors and everybody else out there."
"I did PoCs on products called Cylance and CrowdStrike. Although, I consider these products and they were also good, when it come to cost and budgetary factors, Traps has been proven to be better than the other two products. It is quite cost-effective and delivers all the entire solution which we require."
"The pricing seems fair, and I do like the licensing model. You use wherever they are, and it is elastic."
"The pricing is a little bit on the expensive side."
"The cost depends on your chosen license type, like Pro or other licenses."
"The solution has one subscription for endpoint protection and one subscription for detection and response. The two licenses combined give you the BRO version."
"The pricing is a little high. It is per user per year."
"Very costly product."
Information not available
"The product is available at a high price."
"The licensing is subscription-based and priced well compared to other endpoint security solutions."
"Customers need to pay monthly licensing costs for Panda Security Adaptive Defense, which is not expensive."
"The price is excellent."
"Panda is cloud-only and comes at a reasonable cost. It is a set price per seat."
"The solution's pricing is better compared to other products."
"The solution is priced well for what features it provides."
"Our licensing fee is 1M Euro per month, so it is about 80 Euro's per user."
