Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Firewalls: The application ID capabilities have been very useful for things like Active Directory, and not having to identify every port that Microsoft has decided to use.""The application ID or App-ID feature is a good feature for us. We are also using IPS and content inspection features. The firewall can inspect the packages that are passing through my network.""We use the solution for centralized monitoring.""Our team has the option to make configuration changes at any given time.""The most valuable aspect of Palo Alto Networks Panorama for me is the centralized management of multiple firewalls.""The most valuable features of Palo Alto Networks Panorama are centralized management. We can manage all our firewalls.""The solution doesn't need a proxy for the Prisma Access Firewall.""It has shared profiles for all gateways. If I do not have Panorama, I need to create a separate profile for each and every gateway by logging into that particular gateway, but with Panorama, I can create a shared profile and just push it down to each and every gateway connected to it."

"It allows administrators to visualize the traffic flow, and troubleshoot when necessary.""There are a lot of benefits to using the reporting. It gives us duplicate objects, duplicate services, shadow firewall rules, and the firewall rules not needed for a given number of days or months.""The automated reporting on a regular basis is helping us to be compliant with legal requirements.""My team uses it heavily to audit the changes made by junior engineers, going back and figuring out what they messed up, and correcting their mistakes. We generate reports for customer compliance and audits, as well as for regulatory audits.""Tufin has improved my organization with its configuration management. It has tremendously improved the operation's success and has made life easier.""Tufin has made handling firewall rule request tickets more centralized and easier to manage.""The product is good at auditing the changes that we make in our environment.""We use Tufin to clean up our firewall policies. This makes it a lot easier to find out the things that are wrong."

Cons
"The solution can improve by providing unique reports in relation to the function of which you choose the firewall to do.""It could be easier to manage. In the future, it should be much easier because it's not very easy to manage. So in the next release, I think it should be much easier to manage, especially in the first configuration. It could also be more stable.""Clients need to have an alarm and alert system from which they can forward the trigger. The product needs to improve its integration as well.""The product could use some method of allowing for more customization and open integration with other controls.""The general customer feedback is when saving the configuration, it takes a long time. That needs to be fixed. The troubleshooting, the debugging part is also a little bit of a pain. It's not user-friendly on the interface to do our debugging when comparing it with other firewalls, like Forcepoint.""I would like more dashboard management.""The solution should improve the speed at which they make changes on the system. Historically, they've been a bit slow in that respect. They should apply changes to the box quicker and more often.""It's difficult to implement."

More Palo Alto Networks Panorama Cons →

"I feel that the user interface is a bit dated.""They need to offer more support to vendors, such as Cisco, Checkpoint, Fortinet, and Forcepoint.""The network part of the solution could be improved. It's too hard because of the Tufin licensing model for the routing devices.""I would rate their reports as a four out of ten. I don't like the way that they are shown. It is too hard to export and send them to our clients.""There is room for improvement in the speed of Tufin. It is using so many of my VM resources and yet it is still a bit slow... Even though we are allocating 130 gigs of RAM, we still have to wait for a few minutes for a single report to be generated. Otherwise it would be a perfect tool.""In the next release I would like to see better migration in the Cloud because that will allow more visibility in the network.""The integration with different products needs to be improved.""They are a little bit behind on some of their support for the Palo Alto firewall platform. I'd like to see that catch up, specifically around importing certain objects."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Pricing is high compared to other vendors in the same space. Licensing is also fairly high for different functions to be added on."
  • "With the URL filtering, we probably went down from around four hours in response time to about five minutes."
  • "The licensing is not cheap. There are always hidden costs. You have support costs, or maybe you need to buy more optics on how the solution fits into the rest of your environment. It is possible some of the rest of your environment will need to change too."
  • "It has freed up staff time, which is where we are seeing ROI."
  • "Initially, Palo Alto looks expensive, but if you dig deeper then you will find that it is very comparable, or even cheaper than other solutions."
  • "You only pay for the license and there are no additional costs."
  • "We pay approximately $3,000 a year in order to use the product."
  • "The pricing model is reasonable for this class of solutions."

  • "Tufin and AlgoSec were pretty much in the competitive price range, but this one provided us better integration into the Check Point environment."
  • "The solution has helped us to reduce the time it takes to make changes. With Tufin, it takes ten to 15 minutes. Before, it was 30 minutes or more."
  • "The solution has helped reduce the time it takes us to make changes. It helps make overall integrated changes immediately. It allows us to cut down at least a few hours in the week in regards to changes and monitoring."
  • "We've seen a decrease of about 50 percent in the overall time it takes to complete a firewall change."
  • "Tufin makes things a little easier. It lessens the amount of manual work which we have to do. It has a lot of benefits in terms of revenues, profits, employee costs, and operational costs. We have already seen return on investment."
  • "This solution helps us reduce the time it takes us to make changes. We're probably saving time by 25%."
