    Usability
    Palo Alto Networks
    It is very easy to use and setup. It integrates well within all of Palo's products such as NGFWs and Prisma Access. There is a dedicated log inside of Palo products for URL filtering to aid in troubleshooting. It integrates with AD/Azure so that different users can have different URL filtering rules. Filtering can be adjusted in real-time

    Return on Investment
    Palo Alto Networks
    • Palo has been an excellent investment for us.
    • Having robust URL filtering built into the same device as the firewall saves the cost of a separate appliance and improves performance.
