Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks Scalability
The solution is very scalable. You can have 500 users and scale tomorrow to 10,000 with no extra work but just purchasing the licenses needed.
I rate scalability a ten out of ten.

WillAgudo
System Administrator at NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS
It's very scalable. We have it on Macs, Windows, Windows servers, and multiple flavors of Linux.
We have about 460 endpoints deployed. As far as technical users, we have a team of about 10, and that's mixed between server admins and their subsupport users.
The usage is extensive, and we've recently deployed it everywhere. We do plan on probably increasing usage because we have current consultants who use the product in order to access our systems.
View full review »The solution is very scalable. This is due to the fact that it is being managed through the cloud making it easy to deploy to a thousand endpoints. There is no issue at all. As long as there's enough space for the solution to expand, it can grow out to any size you need.

In regard to the scalability, the tool could have additional agents to provide a full installation in the company. This would make the installation much easier when scaling the solution, we should not have to use another tool.
The installation approach is to do it one computer at a time, but if Cotex could provide an additional tool in order for us to reach all the elements of the network would be very helpful. It should be done automatically. I understand that if the tool has the capability to analyze the network, it should be able to read the computers' elements in the network and in other ways.

It is definitely scalable.
Primarily, it is just being used by myself. The help desk also uses it. There are probably a total of around ten users.
We've deployed it to about 1500 endpoints so far. There is a possibility that we may expand our usage, but not in the foreseeable future. We are at pretty much at 100 percent deployment at this point.

It's scalable. I see whatever is written on their datasheets, and all it's real. If I talk to some other vendor and they say that they currently provide 20 Gbps reports, but when you activate it, IPSec and all, it goes to 2 Gbps. With Palo Alto, whatever is there is working, and it's scalable.

Luke Teeters
Lead IT Security Analyst at a mining and metals company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Scalability is great with servers and workstations. At a moment's notice, you can add hundreds of endpoints. With Traps 5 being on the cloud, there is no scalability risk. You're not going to overload it, as it is a cloud portal. It is their problem, not yours. If you have any issues, call support. I'm confident I can push the client out to 1000 machines, and it will still check in.
We have over 2500 people in our organization using Traps (the entire organization).

Traps677
IT-Administration at a mining and metals company with 51-200 employees
Scalability is not an easy question. For us, Palo Alto traps is running on a good environment, so if we have a plan to expand we just adjust the environment and from the Palo Alto side, it is not a problem at all. The only thing I have to do is update the license file and it should work. But in the case of a bigger expansion, you have to separate the servers. For us, it is not a problem at all if we decide to scale Palo Alto traps.

Olivier Regal
Regional Key Account Manager at Orange Cyberdefense
The product is absolutely scalable. It's an enterprise solution. However, one less positive thing about it, is that it's only from 200 users, from 200 endpoints. That's bad. What do you do with clients who have only 100 endpoints? They cannot purchase Cortex. That has to be improved, with high priority. Palo Alto is aware of that.

It's very easy to scale if you have file availability. If it's more clear, we can do high availability, but it's a bit tricky. We deployed this for 4,000 endpoints, and it was very easy. Two ASM core servers were enough to deploy it for 4,000 plus endpoints. These are enterprises, not SMBs. They're government institutions.
