Find out in this report how the two Firewall Security Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution is easy to navigate."
"It helps us to streamline our firewall rules, identify risks, and provide better visibility. This product has significantly saved the time and human efforts in creating and deploying firewall rules. It is now easier for our cybersecurity team to analyze firewalls rules and ACLs, using them in a more efficient manner."
"We have not seen many faults reported from our customers."
"We have all of the information about the firewall devices that we have at risk, either because there is a firewall policy with some open protocol that can give us security problems later, or because long-unused rules present a security hole."
"It assists us in network security reviews and audits."
"The PCI compliance feature has been helpful in preparing for audits."
"Rather than logging in on separate firewalls, AlgoSec enables you to make changes on all firewalls from one pane of glass."
"It improves audibility and security by having instant access to firewall configurations."
"Palo Alto Networks Panorama has good stability. I didn't see any instability from it, and its initial setup was straightforward."
"The initial setup isn't very complex, it's user-friendly."
"Our team has the option to make configuration changes at any given time."
"You don't need an overly experienced workforce to handle Palo Alto. It's very easy to use."
"The entire ease of use is most valuable. If you're managing firewalls locally with PAN-OS, the look and feel of Panorama is the same. So, you don't have to relearn another product. If you're used to managing firewalls from Palo Alto, you can easily use Panorama to manage them. It looks and feels the same."
"Compared to all of the other firewall vendors, Palo Alto is very secure."
"The solution is absolutely stable."
"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 license rekeying needed for when you need to change a firewall usually takes a bit of time."
"We are running multiple hybrid cloud solutions, working with cloud providers, and looking for API integrations with cloud and related interoperability. Sometimes, when we are trying to delete or disable any rule, it takes more time than expected."
"Some UI experience is a little clunky (for e.g. MAPS module) and could be made more user-friendly."
"I would like more documents and support for the cloud firewall."
"Automate the change documentation in MS Word format. Therefore, we can customize it, if needed."
"It would be nice if it was more variable when checking virtual domain baseline in the same way as Fortigate's firewalls do."
"Some features require a learning curve and may necessitate support from AlgoSec, which can be challenging at times."
"The HA solution is not good."
"It should have more connection with Threat Intelligence Cloud. They can also include features related to SecOps and automation API."
"The solution could improve by having a true single pane of glass environment for unified management. At the present time, you still have to use three or four different solutions to bring everything together."
"Its UI and usability could be improved. The way the UI looks could be improved to make it a little bit more intuitive. Other than that, it is a pretty simple product."
"The initial setup requires expertise and can be a bit complex."
"The ease of use of Palo Alto Networks Panorama is an area for improvement. Another downside is that you need a lot of comprehension to understand what it is."
"Customer support can improve."
"Palo Alto Networks Panorama could improve by making the solution less expensive."
"Price is probably one of the biggest things that we struggle with, specifically with Palo, and that's across their whole portfolio."
