Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Palo Alto Networks, ESET and others in Advanced Threat Protection (ATP)."The most valuable feature of this solution is how it keeps up-to-date with viruses."
"Detailed reporting on analysis of content. The inspections are easily applied to security policy profiles and profile groups, and may be assigned on a per-rule basis."
"It catches modified signatures of known viruses."
"You have better control because you define apps. You just don't define ports. You define apps, and the apps are monitored in the traffic. It is more specific than the Cisco firewall when it comes to our needs."
"Using WildFire has reduced the number of viruses and the amount of malware that comes into our system, which means that I don't have to rely on the end-users to identify it."
"I like the analysis they apply to the unknown files, and I think they have good technology to use as a sandboxing tool. I didn't find something similar to WildFire in the marketplace."
"The reporting feature helps our performance."
"Installing this product as a datacenter firewall for segregation and segmentation, and also configuring policies between zones has improved my organization."
"I recommend this solution because of its ease of use."
"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 stops in excess of twenty-five malware events per month, all of which could be critical to the business."
"It is stable and reliable."
"The most valuable features are the administration console and its detection and response module."
"It is very scalable."
"The product's false positive logs could be more user-friendly to understand. They could provide examples of precious cases to learn."

"Many years back an update caused an issue with the firewall. However, Palo Alto not only informed us of said issue, they also sent an update that fixed the issue before I even had time to log in to determine if the issue affected our services."
"Palo Alto Networks WildFire could improve by adding support for manual submission of suspicious files and URLs. Additionally, it would be an advantage to add rule-based analysis. Currently, it uses only static and AI. We need to be able to analyze archive files."
"The initial setup was complex."
"The technical support response needs improvement."
"There are some formats that the solution cannot support ."
"The price could be better."

"Lacks remote capabilities not dependent on the internet."
"There could be a tool that automatically updates all-new Microsoft IPs, which are available for free to connect to the client."
"The initial setup was industry standard complex. It takes awhile and has a lot of planning involved. It could be simplified with product redesign."
