    Palo Alto Networks
    I still think Palo Alto Networks Prisma Access is the best SASE/SSE product out there. It just has such good granular controls and up to date security definitions that you can feel absolutely secure in your purchase. GlobalProtect was a lifesaver for me when COVID hit so yes I had to work my butt off to get it up and running quickly and as secure as I possibly could but it worked amazing and had excellent performance after we got it running and tied to MFA, certificates and security policies.

    • Prisma allows automatically opens an IPsec/SSL VPN connection to Prisma Access.

    Palo Alto Networks
    • With all of it's unique features it does take some time to get folks up to speed in regards to supporting/managing the software.
    • Doesn't always play nice with non Palo Alto software.

    I still say that Palo Alto Networks Prisma Access is the best. I love their GUI, their policies are easy to manage, the sales team is VERY helpful (especially when support is not). I still recommend them to everyone I talk to.

    The McAfee product really isn’t a great option. The configuration is a nightmare and requires a lot of time. The policy management has a high learning curve.

    Palo Alto Networks
    • It is extremely easy to manage who has remote access in our organization now.
    • It has allowed us to more fluidly get remote workers up and running.
    • Another tool to mange is never a good thing and the Panorama UI could use a little work.
