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 product with an easy setup phase that helps manage attacks and vulnerabilities
The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that you can manage and react to vulnerabilities and attacks on all the workstations or laptops. You can put certain workstations and isolation. With ESET PROTECT, you see only one machine that is protected, but with ESET Inspect, you see all the machines that are protected in an environment.

Ransomware threats have been contained but application visibility remains a challenge
The best features of Trend Vision One Endpoint Security are the ransomware protection and the vulnerability protection module which has helped us to secure our endpoints against various threats. Since we are using endpoint security along with the EDR, the vulnerability protection module helps to identify which threat group is active and is using which specific vulnerability and also it helps to detect if those vulnerabilities exist within our environment and shows which machine is affected. Along with that, it also helps me see if Trend Micro offers an intrusion prevention system rule against that particular vulnerability. Trend Vision One has very good threat intelligence, which has helped in protecting against malware attacks for quite some time now. We have seen Trend Vision One Endpoint Security's EDR capability help our security operations move at a faster pace compared to earlier. With all the incidents that we have seen in the recent past, the mean time to detect and respond is significantly better than before.

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 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."
"Overall, it's a great platform; it integrates very well with other solutions from Palo Alto and also with our vendors, the ease of use is excellent, I love the root cause analysis from Cortex, which is amazing, and in a few clicks you can have the full root cause."
"I can highlight that we have not faced any security incidents with Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, and even though our environment is quite dynamic, we have not faced any security incident with Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks until now."
"Stability is a primary factor, and then there's the ease of distribution and policy management; Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is very easy to work with, and we're quite happy with them."
"The user interface of the solution is sophisticated and straightforward."
"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."
"One major outcome our organization achieved with Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is that it is a good tool for analysis, remediation, and incident response, with no negative points in terms of budget and overall effectiveness."
"The rules are the best and most useful features."
"I find the multilayered endpoint security the most valuable feature."
"The product's most valuable features are its performance and stability."
"This solution is easy to install, setup and monitor."
"Scalability-wise, it is a very good solution."
"ESET Enterprise Inspector's most valuable feature is EDR."
"ESET Enterprise Inspector's greatest asset lies in its user-friendly interface, which allows for easy navigation and thorough analysis of incidents."
"Rules are the most valuable feature of ESET Inspect. They are created through XML language, and they track and filter events from endpoints. If the event matches the rule, the rule is triggered. Exceptions are the second most valuable feature because it gives you the power to filter false positives in large numbers. The third most valuable feature is the Learning mode that facilitates making exceptions for known processes with a good reputation."
"I like Apex One's USB port blocking. We implement different policies for each client. For example, a client might ask us to block certain USB devices or require us to restart a desktop on the network."
"Stability-wise, it is a good product, and I rate it a ten out of ten."
"The solution offers quick and timely updates."
"Since I started using TrendAI Vision One – Endpoint Security, it has positively impacted my organization by identifying compliance and system-related vulnerabilities, as well as malware that was previously hidden."
"It is updated automatically without much intervention from our side. We can also get some reports easily."
"The most valuable feature of Trend Vision One Endpoint Security is the virtual patching it provides."
"We don't use application control but instead, we use behavior monitoring, which is a good feature. The real-time scanning, data loss prevention, and endpoint sensor we use are beneficial"
"The initial setup is very easy."
 

Cons

"The solution should enhance the ADR and reporting."
"Cortex XDR could improve its sales support team, including better commission structures and referral programs."
"The dashboard is the area that needs to improve so that we can have the ability to drill down without having to go elsewhere to verify results."
"A potential area of improvement for Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is the cost."
"When it comes to core analysis, and security analysis, Cortex needs to provide more information."
"If they had pulse rate detection, it would be better."
"The price could be a little lower."
"It is not easy to sell Cortex XDR, not because it isn't a good tool. Its marketing needs to be improved."
"The platform's price could be better."
"It may be difficult for a first-time customer to understand all of the functions that are available to him."
"The solution could improve the consumption of resources. The RAM and CPU usage increases during usage which can cause issues. We have three separate services and it would be beneficial if all were executed from one agent limiting the over usage of system resources."
"One area that needs improvement for the product is ransomware protection, which does not offer complete security."
"The product is complex to configure, and there are too many errors that are not errors, making it an area that can be considered for improvement."
"It is not a stable product. We were disappointed in the stability of this product in comparison to McAffee."
"Every vendor is working on making the job of SOC analysts easier, with fewer false positives and more precise detections. ESET uses LiveGrid technology that provides feedback on the reputation of files and operations. It's hard to eliminate all of the false positives, but hopefully, we'll see some improvement with the advances in AI."
"I would like to see better reporting."
"We're not sure if we're going to continue with those products or their products or we're going to switch to something else."
"They should include easy-to-use connectors to make it easier to connect to SIEM."
"We have to manually log in to the machines and give them an update command."
"There are some things that could make Trend Micro Apex One better. They could improve the integration with Active Directory."
"Apex One could improve endpoint patching. For example, Kaspersky can download Microsoft updates and install them. Having that feature in the cloud application would help a lot."
"One of Trend Micro's weaknesses is its high resource utilization."
"Trend Micro Apex One can improve its vulnerability assessment and monitoring tools."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I feel it is fairly priced."
"It has a yearly renewal."
"I don't recall what the cost was, but it wasn't really that expensive."
"It's about $55 per license on a yearly basis."
"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."
"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 was fine."
"It's way too expensive, but security is expensive. You pay for your licensing, and then you pay for someone to monitor the stuff."
"I feel it is a very expensive product."
"This is true in the case of licensing, we do not have the most expensive products, and we don't have the cheapest product, it's somewhere in the middle. Perhaps a little higher from the middle, but we are known for what we provide to our customers, and they are pleased."
"The platform's licensing is affordable and straightforward."
"The platform is expensive; it could be cheaper."
"The pricing and licensing are the big issue now, in my opinion. If the price was less than other companies, or a one-time charge for service was available, I think there would be more users of this solution."
"Apex One has a high cost."
"When compared to Symantec, Kaspersky, and others the price is higher, they are more expensive."
"The price is very good compared to other products."
"The price of the solution was expensive in the first year we had it because we were purchasing it locally. This year we have a global discount for the license. There is an additional cost if you want maintenance support."
"Compared to other products on the market, I think that the pricing is reasonable."
"The price of Apex One is competitive and lower than the prices of the solutions we compared it to."
"The price of the solution is fine."
"On a yearly basis, it's about $50,000. There are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
