Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks Reviews

Our customers' primary use case involves utilizing Prisma for various security purposes, such as application, cloud, and container security. I also employ the solution in different environments, including the European, Middle Eastern, and African regions.

Prisma Cloud saves time for technical teams by consolidating all necessary security tools into one platform. This eliminates the need to learn and manage multiple tools, streamlining workflows and increasing efficiency. Prisma Cloud provides comprehensive security across applications, cloud environments, and containers, ensuring complete protection within a single, unified solution.

Our clients take advantage of Prisma Cloud's multi-cloud and hybrid environment capabilities.

We can deploy the agents using automation, allowing clients to connect Prisma Cloud with Terraform and other tools via their well-documented API page.

Prisma Cloud's integration abilities with existing environments enhance its attractiveness.

Prisma Cloud can be used in prevention mode to protect against vulnerabilities.

Prisma Cloud's comprehensive platform offers a range of features, including runtime security and vulnerability assessments, through its Prisma Cloud Compute component. This component extends its capabilities to on-premises, OpenShift, and Kubernetes environments, ensuring broad coverage. Its ability to centralize and address security vulnerabilities across these diverse environments makes it a crucial and decisive element within the Prisma Cloud ecosystem.

Prisma Cloud's application security capabilities should be enhanced. The next update should include static application security testing and expand the functionalities of dynamic and API security testing.

I am a reseller that sells Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks. 

The customer service has various levels of support, including access to a customer success engineer. This indicates a structured approach to customer service.

Positive

Due to its cloud-based architecture, Prisma Cloud offers a strong return on investment. It eliminates the need for additional hardware, making it a financially and technically sound investment.

I would rate Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks ten out of ten.

Our clientele consists of enterprise-level businesses.

Currently, we use Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks in my company for our clients who operate in the finance and banking teams and want data, network security, and posture management for the cloud infrastructure.

The solution has improved our organization, and I believe that it is a continuous process to protect you in any environment. Prisma Cloud gives you an overview of what gaps are in their environment, but how they are going to be solved depends upon the client, especially the security gaps. Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks gives 60 to 70 percent of the overview, which the client ignores in their infrastructures. The tool provides users with a better overview of what is going on in their infrastructure.

The most valuable features of the solution are areas like compliance and asset inventories, along with runtime protection.

The tool's UI is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required. With the cloud protection and UI, the tool should have the option to download the data for the vulnerabilities. One should have the option to download detailed data about vulnerabilities in the host. The tool should have a guide or a knowledge base document. The tool should specifically provide a guide about the solution's UI, which can be helpful for clients.

Sometimes, it does provide an error, or I can say that when we integrate our infrastructure cloud with Prisma Cloud, we face some issues. Most of the time, the integration issues are not due to Prisma Cloud but from the client side.

The tool's support team needs to improve.

I have been using Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks for two years. My company has a partnership with Palo Alto Networks.

Stability-wise, I rate the solution a seven out of ten. I rate the stability at a seven, considering the time we needed to get the data from DSPM. Most of the time, when the client requires data, it is not available. At other times, it requires a lot of time to get the data. It also requires time to import data from the cloud as per our requirements.

It is a scalable solution. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

My company's clients are medium and enterprise-sized businesses.

The solution's technical support team doesn't reply on time. There is a gap in communication. The solution's technical support team doesn't have enough engineers to handle the cases. The support team wants us to work as per their time, so it is not according to the clients’ needs and time. I rate the technical support a six out of ten.

Neutral

I got a chance to work with CrowdStrike and SharePoint, but I never got the project since the client did not give me a chance.

The product's initial setup phase is straightforward. For the deployment phase, we just need some minimal data from the cloud to be able to integrate with Prisma Cloud. Just in case of custom issues, there are some points where we faced some issues with the deployment, but it was basically from the client side as they had multiple policies deployed on AWS and Azure Cloud, making it a little difficult for Prisma Cloud to integrate. In general, it is easy to integrate anything on the Prisma Cloud.

For the product's deployment phase, one cloud admin from the client's end and one from my company's side, one person is required. Two to three people are required to take care of the deployment.

The solution can be deployed in a matter of days.

Though the company's clients have multiple tools, they were not able to integrate all of the cloud accounts in a single SIR tool, which is why we had to use Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks to monitor all of our company's clients' cloud accounts.

The solution provides security scanning for multi and hybrid cloud environments, but it does not provide the details about the product that provides the security. Most of the time, it just provides an overview of the security gaps. In real life, I didn't see any of the scenarios where it is protecting our company's infrastructure. Clients are sometimes not ready to use runtime protection for the Prisma Cloud because they don't want to take any risks in the production environment.

The comprehensiveness of Prisma Cloud for protecting the full cloud-native environment involves network protection. The most important thing is network security, and the second is IAM security, which is important for the banking team. I see that the tool has a large number of containers. Deployment and pipeline security are the main areas for the banking sector. Our clients don't use much of Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks because it contains complexity, and the UI is not user-friendly. There have been multiple cases of their client complaining about the UI. From the standpoint of the client, the tool is too complex.

Speaking about the tool's help that allows users to take a preventative approach to cloud security, I would say that based on the asset inventory, we check the details about the assets and the number of assets. Secondly, we go through the alerts, which consist of IAM and the network security rules. Following the severity, like critical, high, or medium, we first resolve those issues and take steps monthly. The alerts that are generated monthly should be resolved only in that month.

After the deployment, it took three to four months to notice the value derived from using the solution, from my point of view and experience.

The discovery is good. The discovery provides details about the assets and the data, along with the data inside the infrastructure and about the infrastructure. There are some issues because if only about the data, it does not give out any issues for the user and instead gives more information about the infrastructure and some within the infrastructure.

Palo Alto DSPM did not discover much data existing outside of our company's official IT systems.

The solution provides insights into the content that has been discovered, along with some detailed information.

I cannot reveal the type of insights into the content that the solution has provided because our client would not want our company to open up about such details.

The insights into the content have affected the data security operations since following the compliance provides and helps clients regulate their security. It also prevents data breaches. The data breaches open up whatever data can be opened, and it helps clients to determine what data they need to secure and how. Speaking about data security posture, our company's clients take steps to resolve any issues because they want to save their reputation, especially in scenarios involving hacking.

It took around two to three months to see the value derived from the use of the product.

The tool provides an automated discovery of new data assets as they get onboarded. It does take one to two days on an average basis to show all the data.

In terms of whether the solution provides a prioritized list of all the data security posture issues in our company's environment, I can say that as soon as the assets are discovered, Prisma Cloud starts scanning and does all of the data security scanning. It does not take much time, and it can be done in four to five hours. If it is a large-scale infrastructure, then it can take an average of eight to ten hours.

I have not used the solution's connectors for the SOC's DDR solution to help automate remediation since the plant where it is used did not integrate Prisma Cloud with the same tools they use, with one of the reasons being that Prisma Cloud overflows the alerts, and they did not want alerts to overflow with their production in an SIMP environment.

The solution provides visibility and control regardless of how complex or distributed the cloud environment becomes, but when it comes to getting the data from the UI shown to the upper management, things do become complex because the tool doesn't have many options to import or export data.

I cannot say that the solution has reduced all the alerts by prioritizing the ones that have the most impact on sensitive data. The alerts that were critical and high, have been resolved by the team, while also taking care of areas involving IAM and networks.

The prioritization of alerts in the tool has affected our company's operations, and from my point of view, right now, I am able to show my CIS and the upper management team what steps we have taken and how the issues that are there as per the alerts have been resolved based on the critical, medium and high severity basis. I can say that 60 percent of the issues have been resolved as per the alerts. It gives me the flexibility to provide details to the management team that we are on track to provide security to our infrastructure. It gives me the flexibility to provide data to management for some time. As the environment grows, it generates a lot of alerts, and it takes time to resolve all of them.

The solution does not require any maintenance, and one just needs to make sure that the tool is up to date.

Based on my experience, I would recommend Prisma Cloud because I have hands-on experience with the solution. The integration is easy. The tool provides visibility in the infrastructure and for the alerts about the security gaps, the tool provides precise details. Talking about the new app in the tool, I would say little improvements are required. The tool is quite informative for me, but from the client side, it does require some improvement.

If someone has a large infrastructure, I won't recommend Prisma Cloud to them. If they have medium and enterprise, then I will recommend Prisma Cloud to such people because it can handle and, as per the working out of the tool, it can change the details about the small-scale, medium-scale, and enterprise businesses, but not for the large scale enterprises.

I rate the tool an eight out of ten.

Our enterprise customers tend to use it for compliance. 

A big drive towards Prisma Cloud came during COVID-19 when many organizations were moving away from traditional VPNs. There was a drive to facilitate people working from home, and traditional VPNs were not the right solution for large customers who had a huge amount of staff working from home. Prisma Cloud offered multiple solutions that facilitated the ability to work securely from anywhere. That was one of the big things, and that continues to be a big thing today.

Prisma Cloud provides security spanning multi- and hybrid-cloud environments. That is what its big strength is.

It is one of the most comprehensive solutions available. If you compare it with the likes of Netskope and Skyhigh, Prisma Cloud is fairly similar in terms of features and depths of features. Automation capability is built in. It has got extensive logging. Automation is there, but it is not extensive. You can combine it with other tools like XO. The integration capability is already strong. That itself makes it a good contender.

Prisma Cloud takes away a lot of manual work for our clients. It has reduced costs by not having to work with pre-COVID-19 traditional networking scenarios. It has given them the ability to have staff working securely from anywhere on the globe. I do not have the metrics for cost savings, but all customers who bought the solution from us say that it has reduced their costs. Over the last three years, we have not had a customer who has not renewed, and it is based on the reduced costs.

As long as it is set up correctly and it is integrated correctly with the SOAR and the SIEM components, it provides very good visibility. It is a very good enterprise solution. No one toolset or platform can protect every single cloud resource, but it can cover a lot of cloud resources.

They claim to secure the entire cloud-native development lifecycle, across build, deploy, and run, but I am not 100% sure. It probably can do 80% of the job.

Visibility is a key feature. Integration with other technologies across the board, whether they are Palo Alto technologies, Windows technologies, or cloud technologies, is probably the biggest thing.

They can improve the integrations into the SDLC lifecycle.

Their support is good. I would rate the Palo Alto technical team an 8 out of 10.

Positive

It is not easy, and it has to be well-planned. You need good skills to deploy any of these tools, but that is the same for many solutions. These platforms are complex, and it is important to understand exactly what outcome you want when you are deploying any tool like this. 

The deployment duration depends on the size of the environment. It can take anywhere from two weeks to four or five months depending on the size of the environment and the complexity of the environment. Some customers have a very simple setup in Azure only or in AWS only. It is very quick to deploy. Other customers have complex hardware environments where they are in the process of migrating to the cloud. Those implementations typically take much longer. It depends on how many global offices they have.

It is an expensive tool. It is not cheap technology. It is a serious investment for any customer. Customers typically buy it together with services. In my experience, customers buying Prisma Cloud are prepared to pay for the implementation and the tool itself.

Overall, I would rate Prisma Cloud an 8 out of 10.

The solution is integrated with cloud environments such as Azure, Alibaba, and Oracle. After integrating, we do check the network logs, including what are the config logs or configuration issues clients are facing. We see what their cloud requirements are. There are email use cases specific to the modules, and we do have visibility over the entire cloud environment. We handle vulnerability management and can block according to the rules and policies. 

We can manage identities as well, right down to a particular machine. 

We've been able to solve various problems. It's helped with cloud security. It problem solves for threat detection and compliance. 

It's helped clients with cloud security. When it comes to the financial aspect, we have clear visibility into what is going on, and we have a clear idea of how we can inspect and prevent issues. 

It offers full visibility.

There is auto-remediation capability with this solution. 

It offers threat detection across multi-cloud environments. Many clients are using hybrid setups and different clouds in India. When it integrates, it's helpful in gaining visibility across the entire environment.

It is comprehensive. It's very easy to define rules and auto-remediation. It's basically one click. It's great for protecting the full cloud-native stack. 

The security automation capabilities are very good. It's played an important role with auto-remediation, which is important to the automation process. We can decide how we want to respond as well. We can arrange logs and alerts. All of this can be automated. 

It allows us to take a preventative approach to security. When I started with Prisma, we had sessions about how we could work with the capabilities. We have a lot of features in Prisma Cloud. The UI has improved and helped us gather information about vulnerabilities and compliance issues.

The build, deploy, and run lifecycle is good. We have particular pipelines, and we have out-of-the-box policies defined. We can see what is going on. We can move faster within the environment with it. 

It provides complete microservices that we can check on a micro level. The solution provides visibility and control regardless of how complex or distributed our cloud environments become.

The solution enabled us to enter our CI/CD pipeline and touchpoints into existing processes. It provides us with a good backbone. 

We are provided with a single tool to protect all of our cloud resources and applications without having to manage and reconcile compliance reports. It can fetch the reports for us. We have APIs and pretty refined plugins to get the reports. We can get it all from the console. We can also schedule reporting. The third-party integrations are very helpful.

The runtime policy is very helpful. We can define runtime rules and go through alerts or blockages. It's one of the best parts of the solution. It's reduced the number of alerts, sometimes by 80% to 90%, depending on the situation.

With the amount of visibility we get, we've been able to reduce alert investigation times. We can investigate if we need to, or we can make custom answers to specific alerts. Depending on your level of expertise in the tool, it barely takes any time at all. If you understand the case, if you already know the type of answer, you can put it in. With Prisma, we've been able to reduce investigation times by 80%.

While, as a cloud security engineer, I can't say how much money it saves, I can see the credit, and it looks like less money is spent.

When there are updates, whether daily, weekly, or monthly, it needs configuration or permission adjustments. There is no automation for that, which is too bad. 

I've been using the solution for two years. 

This is a very stable product. 

Prisma users are increasing day by day. We have a team of around 12 people using the solution. We have a variety of clients coming onto Prisma, and we work to help them become more compliant using the solution. 

It's very scalable and very easy to use. 

We used technical support during deployment, and they were very good. Technical support is awesome. 

Positive

I haven't really worked with other tools. I started with Prisma Cloud.

The initial setup is pretty straightforward. We had good support to help with learning and the capabilities of the solution. 

The training took two to three weeks. The deployment would take around two to three days. 

There isn't too much maintenance. There are updates. There's nothing other than that. 

Prisma's support helped with the deployment. 

We are a Palo Alto partner.

After using the solution for about two years, I would rate it nine out of ten so far. 

Our environment consisted of a cloud-native stack, including Kubernetes, OpenStack, and OpenShift, running alongside additional virtualizations. This hybrid setup required securing both the cloud-native components and the virtualized instances. To address this challenge, we implemented a comprehensive CI/CD pipeline with cloud security in mind. Following vendor code pushes to our environment, we use rigorous scanning and verification procedures to ensure the code's safety before onboarding. Once onboarded, Prisma Cloud provides continuous posture management and security monitoring.

Our current Prisma Cloud deployment utilizes the Registry Scan, Runtime Protection, CI/CD Integration, and Vulnerability Management modules. While we have opted for the Complete Edition, it does not include Posture Management, a feature frequently inquired about by our customers. Currently, Posture Management is only available in the SaaS model, and we are utilizing the on-premise edition, also known as the Complete Version.

We are a system integrator for the telecom sector.

Clients utilizing cloud-native environments often face challenges in scanning and securing their containerized solutions and clusters. Prisma Cloud offers a comprehensive solution, providing end-to-end protection for these clients. 

Prisma Cloud is a crucial component of our clients' security, particularly for their billing environments.

It offers comprehensive security across multi-cloud and hybrid cloud environments. This is particularly valuable for hybrid environments because it unifies all security needs under one platform, simplifying management and providing a more consistent approach.

It helps us take a preventative approach to cloud security. It is a comprehensive solution with a lot of features.

We have improved our clients' organizations by offering unified monitoring that directly connects their SIEM, SOAR, EDR, and XDR within their environment. The benefits are usually seen within six to eight months.

The Prisma Cloud SaaS version's comprehensiveness secures the entire cloud-native development life cycle.

Prisma Cloud delivers comprehensive visibility and control over our client's cloud environment, regardless of complexity or distribution. It provides a complete map of the environment, visualizing traffic flow for enhanced understanding.

The touchpoints in the DevOps process are seamless. We can integrate them with our registry and the CD platform, so there are no challenges during automation.

Integrating with a CI/CD pipeline and incorporating a vulnerability assessment process are highly effective features, especially when combined with runtime protection. This synergy provides a comprehensive view of how our application is performing while it's running, which is immensely valuable.

Prisma Cloud's Complete edition is not a complete suit. Only the SaaS version includes posture management and IDE integration.

The visibility on the SIEM needs to be streamlined so we can get the data without any issues. 

I have been using Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks for two years.

Prisma Cloud is stable.

Prisma Cloud scales well. In addition to our main site, we recently added Prisma Cloud to our disaster recovery site.

We acquired the services of their technical support several times which was helpful.

Positive

I have experience with Trend Micro Cloud One as well. The pricing is what differentiates Trend Micro Cloud One from Prisma Cloud. 

Initially, we deployed Prisma Cloud quickly, focusing solely on the containerized environment. The remaining deployment across the entire environment took two months to complete. From the solution's perspective, the deployment is straightforward. Some customers have complex environments but that has nothing to do with the solution itself.

Three people were required for the deployment.

Prisma Cloud licensing works on credits.

I would rate Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks a seven out of ten.

Maintaining Prisma Cloud is generally straightforward.

We have Prisma Cloud deployed in a single department used for the billing system in our hybrid cloud environment. We have eight users.

While Prisma Cloud Complete offers runtime protection, organizations seeking a comprehensive cloud security solution should implement Prisma Cloud SaaS. 

My company provides solutions for Cisco customers and helps them secure their cloud environments. Most of our clients are adapting to the cloud, and we're trying to resolve vulnerabilities in their configurations. I use all of the Prisma Cloud modules but have expertise in the CSPM and CWP modules. We work with SMEs but also have some enterprise clients. 

Using Prisma Cloud has improved customer satisfaction. Our customers are happy with the solution and the level of security we can provide with this. Prisma can secure a cloud-native development cycle. We can configure Prisma to run a scan before we build the images. 

Prisma is known for its visibility and comprehensiveness. It provides insight into our entire inventory of assets and everything happening in our multi-cloud or hybrid environments. We want to know all the services working in our environment and who is accessing them. 

It provides a single tool for protecting all cloud resources without the need to reconcile compliance reports. All of our reports come into Prisma's CSPM module via the APIs. It's easy to get the reports coming into CSPM. We can get the inventory, asset, and alert reports containing all of the alert notifications coming into the CWPP and the reliability and compliance. It has enhanced our overall reporting experience. We can do a deep dive into alerts from various integrated third-party applications and get alerts sent via email or SMS text to keep track of any incidents in our environment.

My favorite feature is the CWPP module. We can define various kinds of rules for vulnerabilities, incidents, or suspicious activities. Prisma Cloud covers various cloud providers, including AWS and GCP. It covers every cloud on the market. 

Many customers in finance, healthcare, and other industries are adopting cloud or hybrid environments. Some of them are using GCP, AWS, and Azure services together, and Prisma is compatible with all of them.

Prisma's ability to protect a fully cloud-native stack is comprehensive. We benefit from Palo Alto's technical knowledge, training sessions, and learning programs to develop robust solutions for our customers. Prisma's automation features are helpful. We can set up automated remediation, messaging, and alerts. The CSPM module can be automated directly, and we can automate runtime rules in the CWP module. We can also automate some code scanning. 

Prisma is integrated into our CI/CD pipeline through the CWP module. We can load the images into Azure DevOps and scan them for vulnerabilities or compliance issues. We can block the vulnerabilities or disable the application so it cannot run with the vulnerabilities in place. 

Runtime alerts are among the best capabilities. In CWP, we have to block malicious or suspicious activities to stop the incoming attacks against our workloads. Using various templates, we can reduce our runtime alerts by 60 to 70 percent. 

I have some challenges customizing and personalizing some of the capabilities in the CSPM in terms of new policies and services. We have to reconfigure and rebuild the CSPM.

I have used Prisma Cloud for around three years. 

I rate Prisma Cloud nine out of 10 for stability. 

I rate Prisma Cloud nine out of 10 for scalability.

I rate Palo Alto support 10 out of 10. They come and help us a lot. 

Positive

Deploying Prisma Cloud is straightforward. We received some training from Palo Alto's technical team. The deployment time varies depending on the client and the modules you deploy. It may take a few weeks or a couple of months. After deployment, Palo Alto handles the maintenance. They notify us by text or email when there will be a scheduled maintenance window. 

I'm not involved on the financial side, but I know that Prisma Cloud isn't cheap. 

I've seen some other solutions with CSPM and CWP capabilities, but they do not have the same coverage of multi-cloud or hybrid environments. That's an area where Prisma stands out from its competitors. 

I rate Prisma Cloud 10 out of 10. 

We use the CSPM (Cloud Security Posture Management) module that provides good visibility across workloads. The solution in general provides visibility, compliance, and governance across all of our workloads. 

Prevention along with Prisma Cloud's detection capabilities can be leveraged by deploying Defender on your workloads. Additionally, out-of-the-box rules, like compliance rules, runtime rules, or vulnerability rules can be further created to secure any cloud-native workload.  

You can identify any access details and over-privileged permissions using the CIEM (Cloud Identity and Entitlement Management) module by running IAM queries.

You can ingest your Flow Logs to Prisma Cloud and further analyze them using the network queries. You get a detailed view of network flow, configuration details of each resource, mapping of how resources are connected to each other, etc. 

The cloud identity security and cloud network security capabilities are very helpful.

Prisma Cloud helps you identify vulnerabilities and misconfigurations in your code by integrating with your VCS (Version Control System) for example GitHub repository. You will get an overview page as well as a detailed view based on the type like vulnerabilities, IAC misconfigurations, secrets, licenses, etc. There are different options available. If you want full visibility, you can also go to the supply chain graph and see these details. It helps in identifying these risks. It also shows the package dependencies that need to be mapped. In a case where a package is dependent on something, both are provided so that you can see the vulnerabilities. That's a good feature. You can further integrate security into our CI/CD pipeline like Jenkins.

Prisma Cloud provides security that spans multi and hybrid cloud environments. It provides security across AWS, GCP, Azure, Oracle, and Alibaba. We usually engage with customers with workloads across multiple clouds and Prisma Cloud is a good fit for these environments.

The comprehensiveness of Prisma Cloud for protecting the full cloud-native stack is great. It's a single tool that does everything. When Prisma started off, it was more of a CSPM and CW tool. Now, they have also expanded towards Code Security, which is also increasing. It covers a lot of features in terms of its CNAPP (Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform) capabilities and yet the ease of use is exemplary. It offers great automation as well. It's not just about security, it is also about automating these procedures as much as possible. For example, if you want to deploy Defender, you get auto-defend rules. 

It supports taking a more proactive approach to Cloud Security. We can modify existing policies or create policies if required and get alerted if there are any security violations. It can be further integrated into third-party solutions, by alerting channels like Slack. 

Prisma Cloud provides the visibility and control you need regardless of how complex or distributed your cloud environments become. With it, you can view all of your assets on your cloud account. You can even filter. There are different filters based on the cloud providers, and from there you can filter based on the service that you are looking at. Those are grouped in a particular order so that you can go to those resources. For example, if I want to check for an AWS EC2 instance, once I go there, I can select that instance name and get the config details as well. There is an audit trail if I want to see any changes that have been detected in these resources. It gives me complete visibility to the most granular level.

Prisma Cloud provides us with a single tool that protects all of our cloud resources and applications without having to manage and reconcile these other security and compliance reports. There is a compliance section. You can even have compliance available out of the box. You can filter the alerts based on the compliance rules. You can further generate a report for a compliance standard by creating an alert rule. You can add your email address and you can get your weekly report sent to you. All of those things are available and customizable. You can do a deep dive for your workloads, as in your VMs, your container, serverless, etc.

Prisma Cloud provides risk clarity at runtime and across the entire pipeline showing issues as they are discovered during the build phases. If it's colored in red, it indicates there are serious alerts. If it's green, it means it's all good. That's a high-level overview of visibility. However, it also indicates all the risks and categorizes those. 

Prisma Cloud helped to reduce runtime alerts. You can even create runtime rules. If you want to apply it globally, you can have it for all of your workloads. Once you create these, you will also get alerts for all those runtime rules that you have created for your workloads.

So far, we've reduced investigation times. The visibility on alerts helps you investigate more easily and see details faster. It helps you investigate similar alerts and take action accordingly. 

It is one solution that has multiple capabilities. It's not just a CSPM (Cloud Security Posture Management); it has CWP (Cloud Workload Protection), CCS (Cloud Code Security), CNS (Cloud Network Security), and CIEM (Cloud Identity and Entitlement Management) capabilities. Since it's all under one product, we don't have to buy multiple solutions. In that sense, we have saved money.  

We could not use the data security module. It's not available to our Indian customers.

The automation must continue to become much smoother. There are automation capabilities, however, there are certain challenges with that as well. The approach we generally take is we have to raise a support ticket and have multiple calls with the support engineers. That takes some amount of time. If it's a POC, proof of concept, or something like that is still fine. However, if it is the customer's production workloads that we are testing, that delays that entire implementation. Errors need to be resolved or there has to be faster support for these aspects.

At one point, one of our customers was looking for a compliance standard, which is not available out of the box on Prisma Cloud. Maybe not all standards are covered at this point.

When we face challenges and need to raise a support ticket, it takes time for them to get back to us and investigate the issue. We'd like the process to happen faster. We'd also like to have a dedicated source of support. If you have five or six consecutive issues, you have to follow up across five or six separate tickets. It would be easier if we just had one touchpoint that could manage multiple requests. 

I've been working with the solution for close to two years. 

I've dealt with technical support, They are good, however, the turnaround time is slow. When you are working on a POC, it's fine, however, when you begin to deal with production workloads, issues need to be resolved faster. 

Neutral

We're an implementation partner. 

It took me some time, first of all, to understand the product. However, that is important. You need to understand the product, and then get the value. There are different aspects of the product that have different scanning times. Once you onboard, it takes a certain time to get all the details. Also, there will be certain alerts that might not be default alerts. After a certain amount of time, you might have to funnel them. Or, you might want to narrow down to those alerts which are important to you. After that, you'll begin to see the actual value added and to get there, it will definitely take a certain amount of time. 

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten. 

We are running multiple VMs on GCP and use Prisma Cloud to monitor the CICD pipeline for any issues. If there are issues, we raise tickets in Jira. 

Prisma Cloud keeps our servers secure in most cases. We get the most value from the alerts when we have security issues. The runtime protection is also a good thing. We're also exploring the possibility of automating the CICD pipeline. 

We realized the benefits immediately after we integrated or connected our account.  We used to get a lot of false positives, but we took steps to fix that. In most cases, we get help with that. It doesn't take much time to identify the problem.

Prisma covers the full development cycle and helps us a lot. We use it in the development phase and get a good value from it. We catch issues before the production stage.

Prisma Cloud's real-time detection and monitoring of our entire system is the most useful. We also value Prisma's runtime protection and security alerts.

We like Prisma's preventative approach to cloud security. It alerts us about security issues before they become a problem. If our cloud system has outages, our clients may switch to another competing platform. With the preventative approach, we can ensure our servers are always up. 

The UX part of Prisma's user interface could be simplified and the metrics tool should be highlighted more.

I have used Prisma Cloud for three months.

Prisma Cloud is stable. We haven't had any downtime, crashes or lag. 

Prisma Cloud is highly scalable. 

It was easy to deploy and integrate Prisma Cloud. We connected to our account and chose the platforms and environments we have. When we first deployed Prisma Cloud, we didn't know much about it, so it took 30 minutes to an hour. Deployment was a one-person job. It doesn't require any maintenance on our end because it's a cloud platform, so we just receive alerts. 

I rate Prisma Cloud 10 out of 10. The first thing a new user should do is check the documentation and the official YouTube videos. You can always contact their technical support if you have any issues. I don't think they will require technical support because the videos are useful and the documentation is also good. You can also easily integrate and see the reports on the UI.
