I also like the centralized firewall management feature of the product.
The technical support for Palo Alto Networks Panorama is responsive.

A bottleneck in Palo Alto Networks Panorama is the licensing. The pricing and licensing model for the product is expensive and can be complicated, or it could be because I'm more familiar with Cisco licensing, which I find brilliant and easy, compared to Panorama licensing, which could be hell.

What other advice do I have?
Recently, my company upgraded the version of Palo Alto Networks Panorama for one of the clients, version 10.0.
If you are using Palo Alto Networks Panorama for the first time, I'll advise you not to use it if you only have one to two firewalls or if you only have a small environment. Better use the product if you have four to six firewalls and want centralized management.

The best when comes to Firewall management
What do you like best about the product?
I have worked on several firewall management platforms such as Checkpoint smartcenter, Juniper`s Junos space, Cisco Firepower etc. and I found Panorama as the best among all owing to its simple user interface and one platform for all concept. The best part about is that you get a centralized interface that comprises of all the features at one place. The upgrade of the management platform is fairly easier and simplified as compared to other vendors.

How Panorama easy our problem of manage multiple Palo Alto Firewall from difference-2 location.
What do you like best about the product?
With the help of Panorama, we can manage multiple firewalls at a time and change the configuration of any firewall and also see the logs of all firewalls on a common GUI which is Panorama GUI. and also collect long-time logs of multiple firewalls and reduce the risk of losing logs with the help of deploy panorama in a log-collector mode and forward all logs of firewalls to log-collectors & manage those log-collectors from panorama which it may be in only Management-mode either Panorama mode ( Log-collector + Management mode).
What do you dislike about the product?
The thing I don't like about Panorama is that many times after an upgrade either panorama or firewall reachability breaks due to a particular pan-os bug.
for ex from Pan-OS 10.0.1 to 10.0.5 if you integrate the firewall with panorama you will require auth key which is generated from Panorama and pasted to the firewall through the command line.
Also on that version, if you import firewall configuration to panorama you must be enabled the feature of import object tab configuration in Panorama as a shared object and due to this existing firewall data storage must be full or high.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main problem which I achieved from panorama is that managing multiple firewalls from one place like doing any configuration change, checking the logs of any firewall, upgrading multiple firewalls, checking the serial number of any firewall checking the license of firewall and also login in another firewall without the login credentials with the help of Panorama.
