Overall Satisfaction with Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR
Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR is one of several layers we use to secure our endpoint devices. Harnessing the power of AI and machine learning, Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR quickly recognizes and stops threats that may have otherwise gone unnoticed. It also offers the ability to remotely take systems offline while still giving you some level of access to perform forensics or repairs.
- Endpoint Protection
- Detect and Response
- Antivirus
- Interface can be confusing
- An "Admin Bypass" feature to proceed with a false detection would be nice
- Better out-of-the-box reporting
- Saves IT time by blocking the installation of many apps that would have otherwise gone unnoticed
- Multi-year contracts allow for more consistent budgeting
- Bitdefender Managed Detection and Response (MDR) and SentinelOne Singularity
SentinelOne was a close equal in capability. In the end, we decided to go with Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR because we are already established using Palo Alto hardware and Cortex XDR is part of the same ecosystem. Now that we have experienced using Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR, I see us re-evaluating SentinelOne again in the future to see if it would be easier to manage.
