Cons
"In Africa, the technical support is probably not as good as in Europe and the USA because it's a specific premium support, partner-enabled premium support and all of that. But it's really good, I don't really have any complaints, it's fairly good. I'll give them 80%.""The documentation needs to be improved. I need better information about how to configure it and what the best practices are.""Right now we are focusing on email. If Palo Alto can increase the features related to email filtering and the new malware, it would help us protect our systems.""Mission learning techniques should continue to expand and detect unknown threats on the fly.""Sometimes when you want to group a set of ports, and communicate with Palo Alto, you cannot group TCP and UDP ports together. This needs to be adjusted.""The organization mail security solutions could be improved. There is no mail security solution available.""The pricing has improved with the newer generation of their Firewalls, but the price could always be lower. In comparison with other solutions, I believe they're quite competitive.""The initial setup is complex."

More Palo Alto Networks Advanced Threat Prevention Cons →

"I would like to see integration with third-party tools to improve the visibility of the dashboards.""The product's security features need enhancement.""Trend Micro Deep Discovery is a very expensive solution, making it very hard to sell.""There are certain aspects of flexibility in the policies that should be added to Deep Discovery.""Scalability becomes an issue when managing a higher number of customers.""Trend Micro can improve the pricing in general. There is nothing else they can add or improve in the solution.""The scalability is sometimes limited.""The solution should support multiple platforms in Windows, Linux, and Mac. Customers can have different software types. The virtual environment should be able to install and analyze them. The tool also gives only a minimum level of extension support. It may not be able to extract files and give details about them. I would also like to see third-party product integration in the tool. The solution's current integration is only with Trend Micro products only."
