We performed a comparison between Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks and Panda Adaptive Defense 360 based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Endpoint Protection Platform (EPP) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."NGAV and EDR features are outstanding."
"Fortinet FortiEDR's scalability is quite good, and you can add licenses to the solution."
"It notifies us if there's any suspicious file on any PC. If any execution or similar kind of thing is happening, it just alerts us. It doesn't only alert. It also blocks the execution until we allow it. We check whether the execution is legitimate or not, and then approve it or keep it blocked. This gives us a little bit of control over this mechanism. Fortinet FortiEDR is also very straightforward and easy to maintain."
"Impressive detection capabilities"
"We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats."
"The setup is pretty simple."
"It is stable and scalable."
"The console is easy to read. I also like the scanning part and the ability to move assets from one to the other."
"Stability is a primary factor, and then there's the ease of distribution and policy management."
"The protection offered by this product is good, as is the endpoint reporting."
"One thing that I like about Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, it is detecting all the suspicious or malicious binaries, and it has integration with Palo Alto Firewall."
"Their XDR agent and their behavioral indicators of compromise (BIOC) are pretty nice. Their managed threat hunting is also pretty nice. They also have WildFire, which is a service for actively looking for malware. It's quite useful."
"The most valuable for us is the correlation feature."
"The most valuable features are the fact that it was running in the background and it would intercept any weird stuff, and the fact that it would send things directly to the cloud for sandboxing. It's quite practical."
"The management capabilities, allow an IT organization to get quite a good picture of attempted cyber attacks."
"It's a nice product that's stable and scalable."
"The most valuable feature is the web filter application control."
"The feature I find most valuable is the advance search engine."
"The most valuable feature of Panda Security Adaptive Defense is we don't have to have dedicated infrastructure on-premise because it is cloud-based."
"Great technical support staff."
"We have control over our devices, specifically USB ports, allowing us to block or control the traffic."
"It allows us to stop activation windows."
"I like the Panda Security Adaptive Defense cloud usages. Everything is on a single plane of glass like the dashboards. I also like the information I can get about the computers itself."
"It is stable, and the performance is good."
"We've had a lot of false positives; things incorrectly flagged that require manual configuration to allow. Even worse, after we allow a legitimate program, it sometimes gets flagged again after an update. This has caused a lot of extra work for my team."
"FortiEDR could add a separate scanning dashboard. In incident management, we prefer to remove the endpoint system from the environment and scan the system. We typically use Symantec for that, but if we want to use FortiEDR for that, then we need a scanning tab to clarify things."
"I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components."
"We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"The SIEM could be improved."
"FortiEDR can be improved by providing more detailed reporting."
"The solution's installation from a central installation server could be improved because the engineers had a little bit of trouble getting it installed from a central location."
"The price could be a little lower."
"There are some third-party solutions that are difficult to integrate with, which is something that can be improved."
"Cortex XDR should have a lightweight agent, and the agent size should not be heavy."
"Currently, if you use Palo Alto endpoint protection as the only solution it's very complicated to remove pre-existing threats."
"It automatically detects security issues. It should be able to protect our network devices while operating autonomously."
"I would like to see better protection, specifically to protect email applications."
"The solution can never really be an on-premises solution based simply on the way it is set up. It needs metadata to run and improve. Having an on-premises solution would cut it off from making improvements."
"In reporting they should have a customizable dashboard due to the fact that C-level people don't like reporting to the IT department. They prefer to have a real-time dashboard. That kind of dashboard needs to have various customizations."
"The only part I really don't use as much is their firewall. It's a bit superfluous. Most people have their own firewall in place, so they don't really need that part portion of the solution."
"It would be nice if Panda Security Adaptive Defense could come out with remote desktop usage."
"I'd like to integrate it into my main services."
"Occasionally, we suffer from little bugs that give us the wrong message."
"t would help if it would monitor the network better."
"The gap between the two final conclusions is a problem, whether or not a file is known to be malware or is known to be safe."
"The Linux installation is performed on the command line and they need a package installer for that operating system."
"They need to offer a clear dashboard so you can see everything everywhere all at once."
