Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros | |
I like to install Palo Alto mainly on the data center side to have visibility into all VLANs. That gives full visibility into the core. It has the typical features of a next-generation firewall. It can do application control, antivirus, content filtering, etc. | None of my clients has had a ransom or breach using Untangle. Web Filter is effective, Web Cache offers bandwidth savings, and the VPN setup is easy. It is very easy to deploy and monitor. It is not attached to an appliance, meaning if you get a good PC/server, then you can already run a firewall. |
Cons | |
I'm thinking about a new feature. They have decryption. It's a good idea to use decryption on Palo Alto. It would be good if they had offloading of the traffic, and if they could decrypt the traffic and offload it. Like, for example, ASM on our site. We have an SSL decryption to offload the traffic. We could use that on Palo Alto. I would like to see more in terms of reporting tools and the threat analysis capabilities. | It would be much easier if there was a mobile app. The ability to setup a DDNS for each WAN independently would be a very handy feature. The product needs to have a better support group for its online support, specifically for its help desk. The management console for partners is a bit tricky (buggy). |
