The sandboxing tool offers great prevention for cloud feeds.
The solution is granular and able to recognize more applications with respect to firewall inspection.
The new, advanced URL filtering capability has cloud integration that runs analysis and fetches the latest signature categorization.
The solution is very easy to operate.
View full review »We are currently using the URL filtering feature, which is the most popular.
We are not implementing the value of service professionals. This is something I intend to propose to use to better implement threat prevention.
As previously stated, we are not using those advanced features. However, I need to present some use cases to the company in order to convince them that we need to add another layer of security.
We can either enhance the service to match the same level of performance or implement new policies to effectively manage the traffic.
I need to present the use of those use cases.
Most of the threat defense, and URL filtering that I have used I used in Cisco firewall.
But they are pretty much similar. They use both in city, state, state, and Palo Alto. They use similar architectures.

The user interface is a bit more professional than some free products. Palo Alto also provides virtual machines that support the technology.

The solution offers a feature to show which traffic is the highest on the network, and which traffic is the lowest. There's also a feature that scans incoming and outgoing traffic, and one feature that is able to flag a suspicious IP address. These are all valuable features. With the IP address flag, I was able to see that I was being hacked. The moment there was an interaction between somebody on my network and that IP, the solution was able to flag it, and we were able to protect ourselves.

It's very easy to use and configure.
What is nice about Palo Alto is that even if you don't understand how to use it, you can just click on upload and upload everything that needs to be blocked.
It also has signature-based prevention.
The interface is really user friendly. You can easily see what sites you have been blocking and their criticality.
You can also capture packets from this tool, which is really nice.

Edge protection is a valuable feature. Also, WildFire I think has been the most valuable active protection against a zero-day.
It's also very intuitive and user-friendly.

It's a monster, it's got so many beautiful features. We do deal with other firewalls and we've got a better idea of what other firewalls' capabilities are. In any comparison with the Palo Alto, I liked the quality of service on the applications that you can control the amount of bandwidth an application is allowed to consume. The best feature is the quality of the application quality of service.
