Tufin Orchestration Suite and Palo Alto Networks Panorama compete in the security management tools category. Tufin is stronger in policy and compliance automation, while Panorama excels in centralized policy management architecture.
Features: Tufin Orchestration Suite's key features include rule management, compliance tracking, and multi-vendor support. It offers specialized modules like SecureTrack and SecureChange for change management and firewall monitoring. Palo Alto Networks Panorama provides centralized firewall management, user-friendly interfaces, and integrated security intelligence, making it effective for large-scale policy deployment and monitoring.
Room for Improvement: Tufin Orchestration Suite could be improved in third-party integrations, especially in cloud environments, enhancing usability and simplifying complex workflows. Panorama could benefit from faster configuration processes, improved scalability, and more competitive pricing in large deployments.
Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Tufin Orchestration Suite generally requires on-premises deployment, with responsive and knowledgeable support, although setup can be complex. Palo Alto Networks Panorama supports various deployment models, including hybrid clouds, recognized for robust customer service, yet can be initially complex.
Pricing and ROI: Tufin Orchestration Suite is considered high-priced, offset by ROI through resource savings in rule management and compliance. It's often seen as a higher-cost option for smaller enterprises. Panorama is also expensive with perceived costly licensing but is justified by strong security features and widespread acceptance among large enterprises.
The Orchestration Suite saves time when implementing rules.
The technical support from Palo Alto is rated around nine out of ten.
The customer service and support are very good.
It depends on the case, with room for improvement in both quality and response time.
In recent years, they have stopped providing specialized engineering support.
The support team is effective; they connect to the network quickly and help resolve any issues that arise.
The team is eager to help in fixing issues.
Scalability is primarily enhanced by Strata Cloud Manager as it is much easier to scale in the cloud than in an on-premises installation.
Scalability depends on whether it's a hardware or virtual machine model.
Palo Alto Networks Panorama is very stable.
In terms of operation, it is quite important that the staff managing the Panorama should be technically sound enough, and they should know exactly what they are doing.
The AI module should be on-premises, not in the cloud.
There is room for improvement in the graphical user interface (GUI), which is becoming outdated, especially the NAT section.
The analytics features of Tufin Orchestration Suite are challenging to use and require technical expertise, which is a concern as there is not much knowledge in this field in Thailand.
Issues can arise in larger enterprises, particularly concerning policy-based forwarding and NAT traffic.
The design needs improvement, particularly in recognizing target devices and target files.
Virtual Panorama is well-priced and is sold every time there's a solution.
Commercially, compared to Fortinet, Palo Alto is more expensive.
Palo Alto Networks Panorama is expensive but provides good value for money.
FireMon and Skybox are considered more cost-effective.
The pricing of Orchestration Suite is high, which is a point for improvement.
Tufin and AlgoSec are at the same level in terms of pricing.
I find this solution valuable for full monitoring, centralized control for reporting, and centralized management.
The SD-WAN capability is particularly valued because it allows for easy management of firewalls remotely.
The platform is quite similar to the firewall interface, making it easier for tech consultants to manage.
AlgoSec adds more value with its vulnerability control, which benefits organizations by reducing expenses associated with audits.
New employees can quickly grasp the various IPs, devices, and the network's logical and physical layout within a short period.
It offers automation capabilities that are very helpful, especially for network security orchestration and applying policies.
Panorama network security management provides static rules and dynamic security updates in an ever-changing threat landscape. Reduce administrator workload and improve your overall security posture with a single rule base for firewall, threat prevention, URL filtering, application awareness, user identification, file blocking and data filtering.
Tufin enables organizations to automate their security policy visibility, risk management, provisioning and compliance across their multi-vendor, hybrid environment. Customers gain visibility and control across their network, ensure continuous compliance with security standards and embed security enforcement into workflows and development pipelines.
