Your perfect firewall solution!

  • November 22, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Panorama can easily handle, manage various firewalls that are deployed in different parts of the world. I am currently working with 5 firewalls centrally managing them from panorama alone. The GUI is super easy, easy to push configurations from panorama itself.
What do you dislike about the product?
The monitoring logs appear faster in individual firewalls as compared to the panorama. When i am troubleshooting with the customers I want to see the logs as quick as possible for which I connect to individual firewalls instead of panorama.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Acting a perfect product for my perimeter security. The feature set is amazing. Palo alto panorama is leading in the field these days.

Easy to use

  • November 16, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Panorama dashboard looks very similiar to Palo Firewall GUI, which makes it easy to use if you are already familiar with their firewalls. Firewalls are easy to integrate into Panorama, and configuring multiple at a time with templates saves a lot of time.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that some updates break connections.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
it's saving me time in allowing me to configure multiple small firewalls with the same security policies.

Centralized management of Palo Alto NGFW

  • November 07, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It allows management from a single point of all Palo Alto NGFWs, facilitating their configuration, deployment, and collection of logs and statistics. Added to this, it allows easy integration and support in distributed firewalls. From a single point, you can access the configuration most frequently used and apply changes easily, making user support more agile.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be a bit complicated if one is not familiar with the functioning of Pre and Post policies, however, understanding this concept allows for correct work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Thanks to the fact that all administration is centralized in Panorama, this greatly facilitates the standardization of configurations and replication of the same, and it also benefits in being able to obtain logs and records of all the firewalls managed from a single point.

Efficient firewall management with a user-friendly interface

  • September 14, 2023
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

It works as a centralized management solution for Palo Alto Networks firewalls. It allows administrators to manage all firewalls from a single interface, reducing the time and effort required for configuration. Panorama also provides pre-configurations and allows for easy deployment of configuration rules to multiple firewalls. Administrators can also leverage Panorama to change smart IPS rules to Panorama IPS rules, allowing for customization and flexibility in managing security signatures. It also simplifies the process of performing upgrades and complex tasks, making it a valuable tool for efficient firewall management.

What needs improvement?

If a large company uses Panorama as a log collector, it may require setting up multiple local collector devices due to potential limitations in handling firewall logs. It would be beneficial to improve the capabilities of Panorama to handle logs more efficiently, potentially reducing the need for additional local collectors. Adding more predefined dashboards as features would enhance the monitoring and reporting capabilities. The iOPS tools, which are currently offered separately, could be integrated into Panorama to eliminate the need for an additional dashboard or GUI.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been working with it for nearly four years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

It is a stable and reliable solution.

How are customer service and support?

They offer two types of support: Partner Enabled Support and Premium Support. With Partner Enabled Support, partners can open cases with distributors who then relay them to Palo Alto. This process can be time-consuming, leading to customer dissatisfaction. Premium Support allows customers to directly open cases with Palo Alto, bypassing the distributor, but it comes at a higher cost. The majority of high-level clients opt for Partner Enabled Support, despite its drawbacks.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

Among the various high-level firewalls that we previously used, including Check Point and Cisco, Palo Alto Networks Panorama stands out for its stability and ease of configuration. It provides a user-friendly interface that simplifies the process of managing firewall rules. 

How was the initial setup?

Configuring firewall rules is generally straightforward and user-friendly. Certain advanced tasks, such as setting up local collectors and changing log types or indexing can be challenging for end-users. In such cases, assistance from partner companies or Palo Alto Support may be required.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Palo Alto products are generally priced higher compared to their competitors. Its higher price is justified by the reliability, scalability, and extensive feature set that is offered. 

What other advice do I have?

The suitability of Palo Alto products and their pricing depends on the size and the requirements of the company. It would not be a good fit for smaller companies with a limited number of firewalls. For larger companies with multiple clusters or complex configurations, Palo Alto products are highly recommended due to their comprehensive range of features and capabilities. I would rate it nine out of ten.
