Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"What I like most about this solution is that it allows me to push multiple policies on multiple followers at the same time.""The interface is very easy to use. You can do most jobs from one single console.""Centralized firewall management and update management are the most valuable features.""The solution doesn't need a proxy for the Prisma Access Firewall.""I found it easy to learn how to pull information from the logs.""Technical support is helpful and knowledgeable.""All of the reports and events from different locations can be managed centrally.""The most valuable item is centralization and we can get all of the router bases in a single window."

"The stability is bulletproof.""SecureChange makes our lives easier with automation.""The APIs are the most valuable feature of this solution, as they facilitate integration with ServiceNow and other solutions.""Tufin allows our say junior guys to learn how to view policies. It gives them a tool that will help them consolidate and optimize.""The Topology Map, which feeds into our SecureChange - the latter being an automation platform - there's a lot of synergy between the two.""The filtering of lots of criteria is very valuable.""One of the biggest quick wins that we had with Tufin was cleaning up our firewall policies and rules. We cleaned out a lot of rules which helped our devices, longevity-wise, as well as speed-wise.""The technical support is pretty good."

Cons
"We have had some issues in the past because integrating a new device is not intuitive.""There could be more integrations with third parties.""Palo Alto Networks Panorama has some bugs that could be fixed.""I would like to have better analytics.""My pain point is the automation process is not well-documented. There are some things that they could improve on there.""At times we have noticed that we get into issues where Panorama is going too slow or has other little problems. The performance can suffer occasionally.""The central firewall management could be better.""The licensing costs are quite high."

"I would like to see them get rid of the REST APIs and use something more modern.""I would like to see the hardware specifications improved.""Their pricing can be better. It is not very transparent.""I think that the interface could be cleaner, and easier to use.""They are sort of at the pilot stage on some of their products. I saw the Orca and Iris products yesterday. My initial impression of these products were that they were good products, but I felt like some of their features overlapped with SecureTrack and SecureChange, which they are already doing. So, I just wondered what direction they're going in? I understand that they are cloud products, but are these security products going to overlap each other's features at some point? This is my initial concern.""It could be a little more intuitive.""The initial setup can be tough.""One feature that is missing is the ability to assign a step in the workflow to a specific user at a specific time, based on how the previous steps of the workflow have been handled."

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."

  • "This solution helped us to reduce the time it takes to make changes. We used to spend up to an hour to do a change, and now, it's around five minutes."
  • "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%."
