Palo Alto, Reliable High Performance Firewall Solution!
What do you like best about the product?
Palo Alto is a solution that provides software and hardware as a complete setup. The other vendors could be deployed as an open server. I mainly consider Palo Alto like iPhone which develops it's own software; iOS and produces the hardware as iPhone. Also, I consider the other rival vendors like Android as an OS and this OS is capable to work with Samsung, Google, Sony, Xiaomi, Oppo, etc. hardware.
What do you dislike about the product?
The zone limitations give me a headache always. And also log screen and log searching syntax are very complicated and not user-friendly. This interface needs to be revised by a UX Designer
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Palo Alto is one of the leaders in Next-Generation Firewall solutions. We can do App-ID, Content-ID, and User-ID based on Application Control. Also, we can manage security policies and NAT policies which are based on Access Control or port control. Site to site VPN works well without any problem but is hard to configure on the Dashboard; you can add the definitions as objects and use them in VPN policies
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Sizing is important before deploy. Initial setup is supposed to be done by an experienced expert.

Rock Solid Firwall Platform

It is one of the most fully-featured and well-supported layer 7 firewalls on the market.
What do you dislike about the product?
The user interface is still somewhat less intuitive than I would like. A moderate learning curve.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Replaced and consolidated out-dated firewall technology, URL filter appliances, and IDS sensors. We did find PaloAlto to be surprisingly willing to negotiate and acquired firewalls at a very competitive price. This came as a pleasant surprise.

The best of breed for your next generation firewall
What do you like best about the product?
Palo Alto provides a complete and comprehensive solution to secure your in office, in datacenter, and in cloud presence. The security modules alone set this solution so far apart from all of the others. The visibility into the traffic, the integration of rules, and the power behind the physical and virtual appliances are beyond expectations.
What do you dislike about the product?
You get what you pay for. Palo Alto pricing is not for the feint at heart; it is expensive. The UI is powerful, and in some ways that is a draw back because you need to have expertise with it in order to be effective at standing it up. If you are doing a conversion, definitely utilize a VAR's resources to implement a new build out or you will fail.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The appliances we replaced were straight up firewalls. Typical rule creation, exception handling, etc. The Palo Alto does so much more than that. The threat modules are dynamic, the intelligence on the appliances is amazing, and using Panaroma as a central management console hooks them all together to simplify management.
We realized very quickly what really is happening on our network with the instant visibility, and we were able to take instant action. The visibility on the network and the ability to act automatically to mitigate threats is so powerful.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be sure you completely understand your requirements. Document them. Do your homework. Palo Alto can do so much. Don't go into it thinking you will turn everything on and it will all go wonderfully. The Palo Alto is a powerful device that can, if not configured correctly, take down your entire network.
HA Palo Alto Firewalls
What do you like best about the product?
Palo Alto firewalls are great at securing the network. Not meant for all environments as they do not allow any white listing.
What do you dislike about the product?
They do not allow any white listing, no white list based on static, MAC or VLAN. Their support is only break fix, there are really no options for configuration assistance.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The benefits here is the device is solid. They work well do rarely give a problem.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do not use in a school. Do not plan on their support helping you with any configurations.
