Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Palo Alto Networks, Fortinet and others in Advanced Threat Protection (ATP)."The most valuable feature of Palo Alto Networks WildFire is its ability to adapt to environments and its robustness."
"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."
"We get support in the free version."
"The most valuable features of the solution are user-friendliness, price, good security, and cloud-related options."
"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 reporting feature helps our performance."
"Being an application-based firewall, this is one of the critical focus factors along with the threat prevention services it provides."
"The most effective feature of WildFire for threat analysis is its collaboration with other security profiles on our Palo Alto firewall."
"The initial setup was very quick. The first time it was long because I didn't know it yet. I was only using Windows. The first time was very difficult because of the operating system."
"It provides high scalability, alerting, notification, templating, and end-to-end security."
"We like the user-interface for this solution, which makes it an easy to use tool."
"The solution allows for good integration with other products."
"We are able to do problem determination on runaway processes."
"It meets my organizational needs. It's pretty easy to use."
"It not only provides the preconfigured item monitoring feature, but it is also easy to configure custom items."
"We use Zabbix to monitor our organization's IT infrastructure and workstations. We don't use Microsoft Intune since it's expensive. The tool's real-time alerting system has proved crucial for us, particularly when a new device joins a network that is not one of our own devices. It notifies us about the presence of this new device, allowing us to investigate further. Additionally, it alerts us about disk usage, memory usage, and the software installed on the machine."
"The free version does not have real-time updates. It is slow."
"The size of Palo Alto's cloud is big but it could be easier to use from a product management perspective."
"Any enhancements should likely be focused on the firewall appliance to further strengthen overall security capabilities, such as refining app and user identity features."
"The deployment model could be better."
"The threat intelligence that we receiving in the reporting was not as expected. We were expecting more. Additionally, we should be able to whitelist a specific file based on a variety of attributes."
"The initial setup was complex."
"In the future, I would like to see more automation in the reporting."
"The cost of the solution is excessively high."
"The only improvement I would suggest, revolves around its AI and ML capabilities."
"I had problems using Zabbix when working with SUSE Enterprise; many companies use SUSE."
"Having a more customizable interface and dashboard would be an improvement."
"I would like to remotely connect to the computer, and Zabbix doesn't have this capability."
"Sometimes, the documentation is a little bit written in Estonia – a country in Europe. The language barrier and translation to English can sometimes make it difficult to understand what they're trying to get at. It's just a language thing."
"There are some features of Zabbix that are not good for reporting. The DX Spectrum solution has better reporting."
"The GUI could be more intuitive. Also, we'd like streaming telemetry. Zabbix might have this feature, but I haven't seen it yet. It took us a long time to get started because the documentation isn't very descriptive. We had to go through various sources like YouTube and forums to get this solution working."
"The performance reporting could be improved."
