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.

Can automate updates and manage software licenses more effectively
Our team uses the SanerNow CyberHygiene Platform for threat detection, focusing on features like vulnerabilities and asset exposure. The asset exposure feature is packaged with software licenses and machines. We get the latest updates and patches for Windows workstations and applications for remediation. We can automate these updates, which greatly improves our previous manual and scripting-based tools. Before, we struggled with setting policies and making changes to workstations. Now, we can automate updates and manage software licenses more effectively. We monitor who's using various licenses like Office, CAD, Visio, and Lumion.

Advanced detection capabilities ensure that targeted attacks will be detected and blocked before they arrive at our network. SOAR integration has assisted our security team and management in trusting the product.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Cortex XDR is a simple platform that's easy for administrators and users. You have a lot of flexibility to change or customize the features."
"These days it's machine-learning technology and behavior-based analytics features that make us more secure."
"The level of security I get for my endpoints and servers is extremely valuable."
"It is easy to use."
"Traps is quite a stable product. Once it was properly deployed and configured, you have nothing to be worried about."
"Since they've done their most recent update, the ease to isolate endpoints is valuable. If we find one where there is a virus on it, we can easily isolate it. We don't even have to contact the user. We don't have to manually take them off the network. We can easily isolate them."
"This software helps us understand any issues that may arise when someone is not at work."
"The ability to kind of stitch everything together and see the actual complete picture is very useful. I guess you'd call it a playbook. Some people call it the forensics analysis of what was happening on particular endpoints when they detected some malicious behavior, and what transpired before that to cause that. It is also very user friendly. The way they have done everything and integrated all the solutions that they've purchased over the years to make it a very seamless, effective product is very good. One thing about Palo Alto is that they take the products or services that they purchase and make them seamless for the end user as compared to some companies that purchase other companies and then just kind of have their products off to the side or keep different interfaces. Palo Alto doesn't do that."
"Although it is, in fact, a complete vulnerability management solution, the most valuable feature is the patch management functionality. Most of our customers give preference to this tool over other tools when it comes to patch management."
"Our team uses the SanerNow CyberHygiene Platform for threat detection, focusing on features like vulnerabilities and asset exposure. The asset exposure feature is packaged with software licenses and machines. We get the latest updates and patches for Windows workstations and applications for remediation. We can automate these updates, which greatly improves our previous manual and scripting-based tools."
"If there is any malicious behavior in the workstation or server, the tool stops or isolates it automatically and generates alerts."
"The solution is scalable and the product has a good strategy when everything is in place."
"Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) has positively impacted my organization by improving visibility into security events on endpoints and servers, enabling the early detection of suspicious activities, reducing investigation times, and strengthening our monitoring processes and operational efficiency through analysis, Threat Hunting, and remote response."
"The most useful features are behavior monitoring, DLP, and access control. The automation has gotten much better in the last two years than when it was McAfee. It works better now and integrates more smoothly."
"My advice for others considering Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) is to use it, or any other Trellix products, as I believe they are excellent."
"Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) offers endpoint protection and helps collect information while also allowing users to investigate malicious files in an IT environment...It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"The product is user-friendly."
"Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) does everything; it saves time, it saves money, and of course, it provides peace of mind."
 

Cons

"Enhancing UI simplicity and playbook flexibility are areas that could benefit from more low-code automation options for smoother integrations."
"There's room for improvement with Mac device installations, which can be challenging."
"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."
"However, if you do not have Palo Alto in your environment, you are paying these additional services just for Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, so it is not a cost-effective solution."
"The solution lags to the real-time scenarios here and there."
"Impact on system performance is horrible, adding a lot of delays for users."
"Every 30 or 40 days, there's a new version and we need to go and make sure our customer's laptops are upgraded."
"The downside to the solution is that there are a large number of false positives."
"SanerNow has good integration with the more well known ITSM tools, but at the same time there are many other ITSM (IT Service Management) tools available in the market, including local tools here in India, and I'm not sure how SanerNow plans to integrate with them all out of the box."
"SanerNow CyberHygiene Platform needs to incorporate more documentation."
"The CPU utilization of the product is quite high compared to its competitors."
"I'd like the tool to become more like an XDR, with one management system and endpoint activation."
"For Spanish users, it is necessary to have a knowledge base specifically designed for them, which is currently not available."
"The endpoints and utilization are too high, which impacts the production activity."
"From an operational standpoint, the first area of improvement would be agent resource optimization, especially for high-load servers, because Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) captures an incredible depth of telemetry and real-time forensics."
"The searching capabilities for the IOCs can be further improved"
"This is the worst technical support. Without OEM support, you can't handle this product."
"One area where Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) can be improved is the lack of device or user mapping."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's price is moderate."
"The pricing is a little bit on the expensive side."
"I am using the Community edition."
"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 don't recall what the cost was, but it wasn't really that expensive."
"It is cost-effective compared to similar solutions. It fits for the small businesses through to the big businesses."
"The cost of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is $55 to $90 USD per endpoint per month."
"The price was fine."
"The pricing is reasonable - we paid about 2.5 million for 3,500 nodes."
"As with several other solutions such as Microsoft MECM and SCCM, the licensing for SanerNow involves per-device pricing for each kind of product or service on offer."
"Speaking about the price, you must use the product to find the product's cost for you."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is low and ten is high, I rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten."
"The cost is okay, compared to other products."
"Pricing for McAfee MVISION Endpoint Detection and Response is not that expensive, but it's not something that a startup could buy. Pricing for it is for midsized businesses. There's an additional payment if you want data retention for more than thirty days. They gave us data retention for thirty days. Then if you want longer data retention, they have the paid option for a three-month data retention period and for a one-year data retention period."
"The price is reasonable."
"The licensing costs attached to the solution are very easy to manage. There is a need to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs."
"Pricing is a problem in South Africa. It could be cheaper here. The rand-to-dollar exchange rate makes it expensive for us. A 25 dollar endpoint cost becomes quite significant when converted to rand."
"The pricing is always high."
