"It fully protects colleagues from visiting insecure sites and browsing in unhealthy environments."
"Its analysis or emulation in the review of each file using the cloud and Check Point helps make each interaction via email more secure."
"The main benefit is that hackers can't steal information."
"Encryption of emails enhances safe communication that ransomware attacks cannot compromise."
"The anti-phishing feature is the solution's best feature."
"It is fast and quite effective in terms of preventing any security incidents."
"The dashboard provides information to investigate more about malicious activity and blocked emails."
"Check Point adds value with east-west protection in the data center."
"My favorite feature is the CWPP module. We can define various kinds of rules for vulnerabilities, incidents, or suspicious activities."
"The most valuable feature is its cloud security posture management."
"The ability to monitor the artifact repository is one of the most valuable features because we have a disparate set of development processes, but everything tends to land in a common set of artifact repositories. The solution gives us a single point where we can apply security control for monitoring. That's really helpful."
"The solution's dashboard looks very user-friendly."
"Prisma Cloud has enabled us to take a very strong preventive approach to cloud security. One of the hardest things with cloud is getting visibility into workloads. With Prisma Cloud, you can go in and get that visibility, then set up policies to alert on risky behavior, e.g., if there are security groups or firewall ports open up. So, it is very helpful in preventing configuration errors in the cloud by having visibility. If there are issues, then you can find them and fix them."
"It has helped us understand the dynamic topology of our containers, and manage security through the application of policies that our pipelines apply straight from Git."
"The policies that come prepackaged in the tool have been very valuable to us. They're accurate and they provide good guidance as to why the policy was created, as well as how to remediate anything that violates the policy."
"The support is excellent."
"We are unable to export the reports from the dashboard, and if it is possible to do then it is not intuitive."
"Support can be a bit quicker in helping the customer."
"Check Point has to continue refining the intelligence engine to minimize the number of false positives."
"They must provide security to more email service providers."
"There is always room for improvement and growth."
"They could help us be integrating features with solutions from third parties."
"It would be good to have the option to export the respective record data from dashboards or logs to .csv or other files."
"They should consider a module that allows the customizing of reports so we can generate executive information for the client (to explain in simple language the general security situation in the SaaS environment)."
"They could improve more features for the enterprise version of the solution."
"Prisma is good about compliance, and their support is excellent, but they struggle with automation and integration. They need to stay on top of the newest types of connectors. How can you connect other applications and other tools in order for this to work cohesively? That's a challenge."
"Palo Alto should work on ease-of-use and the user-friendliness to be more competitive with some competing products."
"Getting new guys trained on using the solution requires some thought. If someone is already trained on Palo Alto then he's able to adapt quickly. But, if someone is coming from another platform such as Fortinet, or maybe he's from the system side, that is where we need some help. We need to find out if there is an online track or training that they can go to."
"We face some GUI issues related to new permissions for AWS. So far, we don't have any automation to complete them through the GUI. We have to manually update the permissions. Our customers have faced some issues with that."
"I would like Prisma Cloud to improve its mapping feature to increase usability."
"There are hundreds of built-in policies for AWS and Azure, but GCP and Oracle are not covered as much as AWS. There is a lot of work to do on that part. There is, obviously, a tiny bit of favoritism towards AWS because it has the most market share."
"We are encountering issues with the new permissions required for AWS integration with Prisma."
