We performed a comparison between Palo Alto Networks WildFire and Trellix Advanced Threat Defense based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I give the initial setup an eight out of ten."
"Scalable ATP solution that's quick to set up. It demonstrates good performance and stability."
"They have many different options with Palo Alto WildFire and the set-up is quick. If you have all the details in hand, it does not take more than 15 minutes to deploy a firewall."
"The analysis is very fast."
"It catches modified signatures of known viruses."
"The most effective feature of WildFire for threat analysis is its collaboration with other security profiles on our Palo Alto firewall."
"The way that the solution quickly updates to adjust to threats is the solution's most valuable aspect. When there's a security attack, within five minutes, all Wildfire subscribers have access to updates so that all systems will be safe. Its threat prevention is way better than other vendor products."
"The solution is completely integrated with all the other Palo Alto products. I think that it is the best part for endpoint protection. The firewall features include URL and DNS filtering, threat protection, and antivirus."
"Provides good exfiltration, and is an all-in-one product."
"Its greatest strength is the DXL client which can rapidly disseminate attack information to all clients via the McAfee Agent instead of going through the ePO server."
"It is very scalable."
"It is stable and reliable."
"I recommend this solution because of its ease of use."
"It stops in excess of twenty-five malware events per month, all of which could be critical to the business."
"The most valuable features are the administration console and its detection and response module."
"It's not really their problem, it's a problem across the board. There will always be problems with interrupted traffic. We have to set it up where we're playing a middle man game where we're stripping it out, looking at it, and then putting it back together and sending it on its way. That requires CPU cycles. And there's some overhead with that."
"Management and web filtering can be improved. There should also be better reporting, particularly around web filtering."
"Our main concern is that everything has to be synced with the WildFire Cloud and has to be checked through the subscription."
"The cyber security visibility and forensics features to receive more information about incidents could improve in Palo Alto Networks WildFire."
"It would be nice if there was an easier way to install and deploy it, such as through the inclusion of wizards."
"The product fails to offer protection when dealing with high-severity vulnerabilities, making it an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The initial setup was complex."
"I don't think it needs to improve anything, except maybe the speed to deploy the changes."
"Make the ATD system a part of the whole product and take the whole thing onto the cloud. While it is there already, it is not to the same level as the on-premise version."
"I would like to see future versions of the solution incorporate artificial intelligence technology."
"There could be a tool that automatically updates all-new Microsoft IPs, which are available for free to connect to the client."
"Lacks remote capabilities not dependent on the internet."
"This solution needs to be made "cloud ready"."
"The initial setup was industry standard complex. It takes awhile and has a lot of planning involved. It could be simplified with product redesign."
"We'd like them to be better at dealing with script threats."
