    The biggest challenge with this product is it crosses lines. You need somebody who can support servers as well as somebody who supports the infrastructure. And that's usually two different jobs, two different job titles, two different departments. So if you have a lot of silos within your organization and you have groups that don't work particularly well together between the server team and the network team, you will have problems developing and working on this product. If your server team and your network team work well together, then you'll have a lot fewer problems, it'll work pretty well. But if your server team and your network team are like oil and water don't bother.

    Finding specific Cloud Vendor specific Cloud resource configuration, tags, network information and etc. is fairly easy to do. Cloud alert capabilities are pretty good and with proper knowledge top notch alerts can be created. Only downside I can think of is ease of use.

    • Real-time supports would be much appreciated. At the moment they have a third-party ticketing support tool, which can be replaced with real-time support, which can be provided to the user at the time of the issue.
    • The user should be provided with all the learning material by the Palo Alto team at the time of license purchase. This would save a lot of users' time, which is taken up by research and finding the correct documents from the website.
    • Themes can be introduced in the feature set, which would help the user customize the software as per their needs.
