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.

Exceptional malware protection with regular updates and behavior-based detection

There are no built-in backups or integrated backup options, which could be an opportunity. The free version is effective, however, the paid version is pricey compared to it. Other customers have mentioned issues with false positives. It lacks enterprise-level management and more enterprise functionality. CrowdStrike and SentinelOne are much more enterprise-grade solutions. Malwarebytes has limited integration with cybersecurity tools and lacks enterprise integrations because it is not an enterprise product.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."

"From the Palo Alto side, whatever they buy, they integrate that really well into their integration suite, and that makes a massive difference."

"The most valuable feature of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is its machine-learning capabilities. Additionally, there is full integration with other solutions."

"These days it's machine-learning technology and behavior-based analytics features that make us more secure."

"Cortex XDR is stable, offering high quality and reliable performance."

"On a scale from one to ten, I would rate Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks a nine."

"The solution doesn't need a high level of technical training."

"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."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"The most valuable features of Malwarebytes are the agents, user experience, efficiency of the findings, and MDR features."

"We have seen a decrease of approximately ninety percent in the number of events."

"The most valuable feature of the solution is that I can use it wherever I want, be it at the office, at home, or even outside."

"The installation process is very easy, especially since it is on the cloud."

"It is a stable solution."

"It is intuitive and easy to use. For the most part, it does a good job of catching things. It is good at stopping stuff. I did a couple of tests with a password cracker. I tried to load that on, and Malwarebytes didn't let me do that, which was pretty good. It has a rollback feature that I haven't seen with any other company. If one of your endpoints are hit with mass ransomware, you could actually roll it back. I watched a demo of them do that, and it was pretty sweet."

"The pricing of the product is very good."

"The most valuable feature is its ability to customize for different groups."

More Malwarebytes Teams pros

"The most valuable features of the solution are DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities."

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

"The solution is stable."

"The most valuable feature is its endpoint protection, particularly the antivirus component. It has been very effective in protecting our clients, and since its installation, we haven't encountered any issues with compromised endpoints or virus impacts."

"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 most valuable part of the solution is its ransomware backup feature."

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

"The solution is centrally managed, easy to configure, and easy to use."

More Seqrite Endpoint Security pros

Cons

"The product's pricing could be better."

"Managing the product should be easier."

"I think Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks could be improved by having tiered pricing by device, especially since we have not covered mobile devices because the cost is very high."

"The solution should add unwanted malicious hash values to a block list so that whenever the action is triggered, it will automatically prevent the malicious content."

"Dashboards do not allow everyone to see what's happening."

"When it comes to malware files, it should be a little quick because, at times, it would give a wrong result in the sense of what it might be on malware, even if it still might be a normal one."

"The main issue I could point out is the offline agents and the way that it is missing."

"I am facing issues with customer support for Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, so I am not satisfied with customer support."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"Malwarebytes is too simplistic. From a SOC IR perspective, it doesn't give you very much data around it. It doesn't tie things or provide SHA-1 and SHA-256 detection information, which makes it hard to do an additional investigation."

"The EPP solution lacks the sophisticated artificial intelligence required for automating reports and letting you know about things in real-time. It stops a suspicious activity in real-time, but it doesn't let you know in real-time. You have to look at a report, and then you find out that something is wrong. You have to manually kick off a scan. With the Advanced EDR solutions, Malwarebytes has the ability to alert you in real-time, but they still don't do automatic remediation or quarantining of devices. That is something that you still have to do manually. So, the endpoint protection piece, which is just like their basic endpoint protection, lacks AI. For the advanced detection and response piece, there is an add-on that comes with it, but it still doesn't go far enough in terms of automatic remediation of viruses. It won't separate that virus from your network if something happens. You have to manually go there and do it."

"I would like to see a little more detail in the log. So, when an event occurs, I'd like to know not just when it happened and on what device, but what activity was taking place on the machine at the time so that we can drill down. If we get a false positive, we have to do a lot of research and go back and forth with our end-users to know why it was a false positive. So, having a little more detail around detections and events would probably be my most asked feature."

"Every once in a while, it gets clobbered by updates from other places. I don't think this should happen."

"There's no indication on the system as to when the software is doing a scan."

"I would like to see integration with other vendors going forward."

"The stability and performance of the solution are areas with shortcomings that need improvement."

"It would be better if updates could be downloaded, and deployed, on-premises to avoid low bandwidth causing issues."

More Malwarebytes Teams cons

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

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

"In the next version, they should improve the areas of utility and centralized control."

"The solution needs to improve stability."

"The pricing could be a bit lower."

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

"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."

"The support offered by the tool is an area of concern where improvements are required."

More Seqrite Endpoint Security cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"When we first bought it, it was a bit expensive, but it was worth it. The licensing was straightforward."

"It is "expensive" and flexible."

"In terms of the cost Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is very expensive because we are a Mexican company and when you translate dollars to pesos the cost is very high. The solution is very expensive for Mexican companies. I understand that they have international prices, but I do not think it offsets the price enough for many companies in countries, such as Mexico. The amount it is reduced is not a massive percentage."

"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."

"It is cost-effective compared to similar solutions. It fits for the small businesses through to the big businesses."

"Our customers have expressed that the price is high."

"I am using the Community edition."

"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."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pricing and cost advice

"It is expensive."

"Malwarebytes is a cost-effective product."

"It is really expensive. We've got between 30 and 40 licenses every year, and for the number of licenses that we have, we're finding that Malwarebytes on average costs between $900 and $1,000 more per year than comparable options. We're paying about $3,300 per year for these licenses. There are no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fee."

"We expect to pay $1,000 USD a month, depending on the number of users."

"The platform pricing is competitive with other antivirus products."

"Its cost is around $60 a machine. The cost of the total solution for 250 people is about $8,500 a year. If we add EDR to it, it will bring that cost up to about $15,000. The cost for Carbon Black is about $25,000, which is $10,000 more, but you get all AI functions with it."

"I believe the retail price is between $40 and $50 per copy."

"I would say that it's affordable. It costs much less than Sentinel One, CrowdStrike, or anything of that nature. But, at the same time, you are getting what you pay for. So I would say it's one of the best when you're comparing traditional NextGen AVs like Webroot that aren't the best in the bunch."

More Malwarebytes Teams pricing and cost advice

"The pricing is reasonable."

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

"Though I don't think that this is a cheaply priced product, I feel that it is an affordable solution."

"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."

"It is a cheaply priced product."

"We pay approximately $1,500 for licenses for the solution."

"My company needs to purchase a yearly subscription for the licensing costs for Seqrite Endpoint Security."

"We get the tool for around 1200 rupees for a three-year subscription. I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
