MyBib vs. Palo Alto Panorama

I think Palo Alto Panorama is suited for administrators of all levels because certain things can be locked down to certain permission levels. But there are executive dashboards all the way down to the weeds for the highest of administrators. This truly is a single pane of glass tool because you never have to go into the individual firewalls for anything.

• First, it has a very good signature-based Intrusion Detection System (IDS) that shows malicious inbound or outbound network packets. The classification for the critical threats is flawless.
• It has a feature called "Wildfire" which act like an anti-virus and it reports any malware or malicious attachment that have been downloaded or sent through the network.

• The dual WAN functionality doesn't exist in it.
• Better coding in order to make the portal faster
• Hard to apply the templates, too many steps
• It is very slow applying changes once you have committed the changes on its web interface. It could take a nearly 30 seconds until the change has been actually applied on the device, needs some software enhancements. It sometimes crashes for unknown reasons due to bugs.

Panorama has given us much more than we expected and the support for the product, by Palo Alto Networks has been great. We would like to see some improvements that I mentioned in another review, like scheduling changes, but overall Panorama has provided a very capable product and we are very happy with it.

It is a solid product, it allows me to connect multiple devices and to manage my cloud, on prem and vmware firewalling devices. I can assign roles with the required visibility depending on the users. I can also consolidate all my logs into it to have a single pane of visibility.

When you get help it is great. they have different service plans you need to know what plan you have and what kind of turn around you can expect. We have even had a local engineer to help us with questions and solutions. I feel the support team they have is very knowledgable and can help you out. Most of the time there is no need to escalate the issue.

Palo Alto Panorama and Junos Space Security Director have many similar features but Palo Alto Panorama excels in almost all of them. The monitoring tools in Palo Alto Panorama are easy to use and give more in-depth insight into what is going on in your network. Palo Alto's security is ranked much higher and the Web Application Security is also superior to that of the Junos counterpart.

• Panorama seems expensive but when you compare it to other software it really isn't and the features make it worth every dollar.
• Have panorama allow us to have entry-level team members help out even if they don't understand our whole network they can just go to panorama and know that find the info they need and what device the issue is happening on.
• It has brought peace of mind to our security knowing that all policies can be managed through a central system and patches and updated can be centralized.
