Manage security with leading firewall features while navigating AWS cloud challenges

What is our primary use case? Mostly, my partners and customers are connected through VPNs. I have VPNs for my enterprise, which work with multiple customers for online solutions and payment gateways. I also have a contact solution for payments. How has it helped my organization? My firewall solution allows me to manage stability and security effectively. I ensure the stability of security solutions through routine checks and updates. What is most valuable? The most effective features of the solution are its Magic Quadrant positioning, making it a leading firewall on perimeter areas and internet edges. It functions very well in data centers. Its effectiveness is highly dependent on budget and approach. Moreover, the return on investment is calculated according to my organization’s sizing and has never been an issue. What needs improvement? I experienced some problems with AWS cloud parameters connected to Palo Alto firewall. However, I haven't thought of a specific solution for improvement. For how long have I used the solution? I have been using this firewall in my current organization for eight years. What do I think about the stability of the solution? I rate the stability as ten out of ten. The solution is very stable for my needs. What do I think about the scalability of the solution? Scalability depends on picking the right box. For my case, it is rated nine out of ten. The solution can handle more than ten thousand users in my organization. How are customer service and support? The support has been shaky. Initially, it took one or two hours to get a Palo Alto engineer, which is quite slow. I expect faster response times. How would you rate customer service and support? Negative Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch? No other solution was evaluated on the perimeter side or the edge internet side in my region. How was the initial setup? The initial setup is straightforward and mature. If you're experienced, it’s rated eight to nine out of ten in terms of ease of process. For beginners, it might be a six or seven out of ten. What was our ROI? The return on investment is maintained according to my organization's sizing, and no issues have arisen. What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing? The firewall is expensive for every company, but the cost is worth it to ensure maximum security. However, I do not have exact figures on the financials. What other advice do I have? If you have the budget, go for Palo Alto without any doubts. I rate the overall solution nine out of ten. Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Works as a gateway for users and network devices

What is our primary use case? We use the solution as a gateway for users and network devices. What is most valuable? When I compare the tool with other firewalls, it’s the most powerful. It's the most powerful security engine. All the traffic going to the Internet passes through it as the first layer of protection. Because of its good performance, we also use it for decryption. The product's most useful function is its performance. I also appreciate the ability to create rules as groups and apply filters to each group. Each application has its own rules, which can be combined using a group, which is very effective. Additionally, we use Palo Alto Networks PA-Series for decryption, applying encryption policies on the firewall. The encryption policy works for all traffic going to the Internet. We integrated it with Active Directory, specifically with our three or five Active Directory servers. This integration works well for user analysis and policy authentication. The tool is rated high in Gartner reports. What needs improvement? I had opened a case before with the tool because I could not create a wildcard for the security address. We can create wildcards for security addresses in Fortinet, but this feature doesn't exist in the product. We use it as a decryptor using the decryption policy. Any site with a certificate chain with some intermediate CAs not in the CA database already downloaded in Palo Alto Networks PA-Series will not open until I extract the certificate and import it manually into the CA database. This is a workaround. I opened a ticket, and they guided me to upgrade the firewall to a specific version, but I haven't done it yet. For how long have I used the solution? I have been working with the product for three years. What do I think about the stability of the solution? I rate the tool's stability an eight out of ten. What do I think about the scalability of the solution? I rate the tool's scalability a nine out of ten. We have approximately 2,000 to 2,500 users working through the firewall. In addition to the users, we have around 2,000 non-user end devices, such as printers and cameras, connected to the network. How are customer service and support? I haven't contacted the tool's support directly. We seek assistance through our vendor. Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch? Fortinet has some features that surpass the Palo Alto Networks PA-Series. While Palo Alto Networks PA-Series' performance is very good, Fortinet offers some advantages not found in Palo Alto Networks PA-Series. One of the best features is the wildcard security and address. Another significant advantage is the built-in SD-WAN feature with the FortiGate firewall. These features are not available in Palo Alto Networks PA-Series. How was the initial setup? The tool's deployment is simple because of its intuitive dashboard. What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing? The solution's pricing is high compared to that of Cisco and Fortinet. What other advice do I have? I rate the overall product a nine out of ten. I recommend it. If you search the Internet, you'll find reports and customer reviews that highly recommend it at various levels. Which deployment model are you using for this solution? On-premises Disclaimer: I am a real user, and this review is based on my own experience and opinions. What is our primary use case? We use the solution as a gateway for users and network devices. What is most valuable? When I compare the tool with other firewalls, it’s the most powerful. It's the most powerful security engine.

What is our primary use case? We use the solution to connect to the internet. It is for a company that produces dog and cat food. We have enabled threat prevention. What is most valuable? The product makes me and my users feel safe. I like the URL filtering. I don't have to change or add something. I like the security analyzer a lot. I use it a lot to see if there are any configuration errors. It points me in the right direction. The documentation is great. We can find everything we want in the knowledge base. We can learn how to set things up. It is understandable. Even I know how to do it. What needs improvement? The web interface is slow. It is a pain. However, the rest of the device does what it's supposed to do. I rate the web interface a two or three out of ten. I rate the rest of the solution seven or eight out of ten. Integrating the tool into our security system was not quite easy. It has a steep learning curve. We have to think about things like security profiles. It would be nice if the vendor provided a penetration testing tool. For how long have I used the solution? I have been using the solution for a year and a half. What do I think about the stability of the solution? I rate the tool’s stability a nine out of ten. What do I think about the scalability of the solution? The box is a bit small for us. I think it is a purchasing error, though. We have 300 users. How was the initial setup? I rate the ease of setup a six out of ten. What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing? The licensing is great. We renew it, and it works. The pricing is fair. I rate the pricing a five out of ten. Which other solutions did I evaluate? We also use CrowdStrike for threat prevention. The Check Point products I worked with were very old. I have also used OPNSense and pfSense. OPNSense and pfSense are open-source solutions. What other advice do I have? We don't do much decryption of the encrypted traffic. I will recommend the tool to others. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten. Which deployment model are you using for this solution? On-premises Disclaimer: I am a real user, and this review is based on my own experience and opinions. What is our primary use case? We use the solution to connect to the internet.

What is our primary use case? It's our basic firewall, mainly web filtering and application filtering. We use it in a multi-site environment, especially with cloud-based firewalls. What is most valuable? Web filtering and application filtering are the most valuable features. The cloud-based aspect helps significantly. It integrates seamlessly with other Palo products like Prisma Cloud, offers robust VPN protection, and it's all in one convenient package. What needs improvement? The UI definitely needs work. In my opinion, the UI could be simpler and more user-friendly for the average user. For example, I encountered complexities with policy management. Policy management is one of the areas where the UI is not intuitive, and managing policies can be quite complex. For how long have I used the solution? I have been using this solution for one year. We work with all the technologies from Palo. What do I think about the stability of the solution? It is a stable product. I would rate the stability a nine out of ten. What do I think about the scalability of the solution? I would rate the scalability a ten out of ten because cloud deployment makes it incredibly easy to scale. High-tech, multi-site, or multi-region companies, regardless of size, can benefit from Palo Alto. How are customer service and support? Faster response times would be more beneficial. How would you rate customer service and support? Positive Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch? I have experience with Palo Alto's PA-Series and Fortinet FortiGate. However, my preference depends on the setup. If I'm looking at a single site, a straightforward deployment, I'd go with FortiGate. If I'm looking at multi-site, complex deployments and a cloud-based design, then Palo Alto. How was the initial setup? The initial setup is fairly complex. There's a definite learning curve involved in setting it up correctly. What about the implementation team? We require assistance from a third-party company for the setup. What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing? The prices are pretty high, definitely on the upper end. They're among the highest in the pricing tier Firewall category. What other advice do I have? In general, I'd rate this solution at least an eight out of ten. It has some room for improvement. Which deployment model are you using for this solution? Public Cloud Disclaimer: I am a real user, and this review is based on my own experience and opinions. What is our primary use case?
