Next Gen Firewall VM Series with complete app control
What do you like best about the product?
The Palo Alto solution allows us to provide protection to private and public cloud environments, enabling the full power of application and threat identification, including logging and reporting features within the same virtual appliance.
What do you dislike about the product?
One of the details we have is that the cost can be a bit high for a small business, however the security subscription offering is very comprehensive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It offers a robust and intelligent Next Gen Firewall solution for the identification of applications and threats that could travel within each app. Likewise, the ability to identify unknown threats through the Wildfire platform.
Horribly Slow!
Earlier versions are super slow to launch (pass basic status checks), and super slow to bootstrap (respond even on ssh port). The latest version fails to launch fast enough to get past the basic status checks (10 minute timeout), and there is no means to alter this timeout for an auto scaling group (not the same timeout has HealthCheckGracePeriod). If you're designing for high availability, this is not the product for you.
Good solution with new feature
What do you like best about the product?
easy to deploy , tracking security policy while VM is moving & dynamic address object
What do you dislike about the product?

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
visibility of network traffice
Once a mighty company
I've been an advocate for using Palo Alto firewalls for over a decade. They were so far ahead of everyone else. The gap has closed quite signficantly, and they still shine when it comes to being a full layer 7 firewall. The problem is that the company has grown too large and the product has tons of bugs, support is non-existent. They hire people off the streets to support them because they have such a large customer base, and these "off the street" people in turn hire people with even less skill than them. It's a crap shoot when deploying PANS these days, as you run into all kinds of issues, and don't even think about opening a case. You will have to invest tons of times to over explain the issue, be fed with useless documents (you can find those yourself), and escalate multiple times, and then if you're lucky, you may find someone that can find a bug , which will almost never get fixed.
