Pretty Solid Security
What do you like best about the product?
Pretty solid choice if you're looking for a decent combo of an easy to set up and use interface with advanced capabilities. It’s as straightforward as it gets to get the ball rolling, stands up well under heavy load and offers all the features you want out of a NGFW. The support team is amazing andalways reachbale too, always a plus.
What do you dislike about the product?
I mostly appreciate the advanced settings (like IPS or SSL decryption) but they can be a bit tedious if not properly managed and lead to perfromance issues. The centralized management platform is a big plus, especially for larger setups but there can be some lag with cloud-based management when dealing with a lot of logs

It's helping my org meet compliance requirements with all the advanced logging, monitoring, and reporting features necessary for audits.

deep packet inspection and integrated threat intelligence to identify and mitigate these advanced threats in real-time, also i like that integration with AD(Active directory) and radius server ...
System Engineer
What do you like best about the product?
Palo alto offers an intuitive and user friendly interface that simplifies policy management
What do you dislike about the product?
We will need support assistance while configuring from scratch and they have a delay response
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Secure the network
Enhanced threat prevention with advanced security controls
What is our primary use case?
How has it helped my organization?
The additional visibility, which was lacking with cloud-native tools, has improved the organization's cloud security posture. Advanced enforcement and granular security controls help manage potential threats.
What is most valuable?
The most effective feature for threat prevention is the threat prevention model in the VM-Series. This is bundled with advanced URL filtering, decryption, and wildfire sandboxing.
What needs improvement?
If additional web application firewall capabilities could be integrated into the existing firewall, it would negate the need for additional products.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've been working with Palo Alto VM-Series for at least five to six years now.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
We haven't had challenges with failovers yet.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
How are customer service and support?
The technical support is great. We've had no challenges and there are established channels for customer success and professional services.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
In the past, I used to work with Check Point, but haven't worked with them lately. Given the support from Palo Alto, there hasn't been a necessity to explore others.
How was the initial setup?
The integration process involved using a Panorama setup for centralized firewall administration, transitioning from cloud-native firewalls to VM-Series.
What about the implementation team?
We are primarily a consulting firm and reseller, so we've had significant involvement in the process.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The solution tends to add to costs especially when scaling, although measures like using large compute instances minimize the need for scaling.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
Potential competitors mentioned are Check Point and Cisco but haven't been evaluated recently.
What other advice do I have?
For straightforward firewall inspection and basic IPS, IDS requirements, native firewalls might suffice. For more advanced needs, using VM-Series or Palo Alto Firewalls is recommended.
I would rate it an eight out of ten.
easy to use, mostly well documented
What do you like best about the product?
it feels easy to use, for me at least but maybe it's like that because it was an experience I had as a junior with an experienced engineer.
other than that I rarely experienced any bugs that prevented my day 2 day work.

What do you dislike about the product?
I think mainly the cost. for me it meant lower overall budget for other things.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
well it solves the security issue of being exposed to the internet obviosly...
and it benefits me in the way that I'm able to filter (with manual and built-in rules) my incoming trafic.
