Centralized management and monitoring of Palo Alto firewalls, giving detailed status of the devices, reports on data, logs and events of the firewalls.
What is our primary use case?
Palo Alto Networks Panorama is similar to Cisco FMC, for centralized management and monitoring of multiple Palo Alto firewalls. You can push your configuration from Palo Alto Networks Panorama to all your Palo Alto Networks firewalls. You then receive different data reports, threat reports, threat logs, and system logs. You don't need to log into each firewall to get that information or configure it because you can see or do it all in Palo Alto Networks Panorama. If there is any issue or link failure, you'll find that information on Palo Alto Networks Panorama, so the product is best for the centralized management of firewalls.
How has it helped my organization?
For a few projects, we used Palo Alto Panorama to manage the firewalls.
What is most valuable?
A valuable feature of Palo Alto Networks Panorama is reporting because it gives you different reports on data, logs, and threats. It has easy policy management and control, NAT, PBF, decryption, and visibility.
I also like the centralized firewall management feature of the product.
The technical support for Palo Alto Networks Panorama is responsive.
What needs improvement?
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.
Another area for improvement in Palo Alto Networks Panorama is report generation.
It is expensive and suitable mostly in big enterprise environment.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Palo Alto Networks Panorama for nine years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
It is stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
It is a scalable solution.
How are customer service and support?
The technical support team for Palo Alto Networks Panorama is very responsive. The support staff will call you even after the case is closed, asking you how the support was and that he hopes the same issue doesn't resurface. Panorama support is excellent.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
How was the initial setup?
I found the initial setup for Palo Alto Networks Panorama easy.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
Palo Alto Networks Panorama is more expensive than its counterpart Cisco FMC, although I have some clients who don't care about the budget but care more about extra features.
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.
I'll also tell you that Palo Alto Networks Panorama requires a higher level of technicality, so you must study a lot before using it. It would be best to familiarize yourself with licensing, threat protection, decryption policies, app override, DoS protection, etc. Still, I can say that Palo Alto Networks Panorama is an excellent product to use.
My rating for the product is eight out of ten.
I'm a customer of Palo Alto Networks Panorama.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

A short note on Panorama
What do you like best about the product?
Panorama is a solution offered by Palo Alto Networks, which manages and controls the Firewall centrally. Below is the best part of Panorama :
1. We can centrally manage and controls the connected Palo Alto Firewall
2. We can collect logs from various connected firewalls to Panorama
3. We can configure the connected firewall centrally by Panorama

What do you dislike about the product?
My overall experience with Panorama is very excellent, but there are some points where there is a chance for improvement :
1. In log collector mode, we can't get GUI access of the firewalls.
2. There is no option of dual-homing where we can use IPv4 & IPv6 together on the management port.
3. There should be some default template and device group that the user can use for the basic configuration of the firewall.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are working on a project where we installed multiple firewalls in various locations; now, there is two option :
1. We configure all the Firewalls by physically accessing the device
2. We can configure the management port of all the firewalls, then add the firewall in Panorama and centrally configure all the firewalls from Panorama
I want to go with option number 2. Panorama provides the advantage of controlling and configuring all Firewalls from a central location.

My experience with Palo alto Panorama is great
What do you like best about the product?
The upgrades from Panaroma are quiet smooth and moreover commiting and pushing Security and NAT policies on firewalls is great.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes bug fixes are hurdle but palo alto support team is very quick.

Application IDs , User IDs and Content IDs are great to use, allowing and blocking traffic bases on app IDs make the environment more secure.
Best network security appliance ever used
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use and manage all aspects of my network and protection provided was outstanding.
What do you dislike about the product?
I cannot think of anything I disliked. It did take awhile to find some functions but that normal for any new product you use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Create the rules to allow traffic to flow efficiently and fast while protecting your data without causing any bottleneck.
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.
What do you dislike about the product?
One may find the platform complex in the beginning and may require some training. In the beginning the platform was difficult for me to figure out but post getting some training sessions from the palo alto team, it was a smooth sail.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The centralized management and one shop solution for everything.
