Easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
Panorama dashboard looks very similiar to Palo Firewall GUI, which makes it easy to use if you are already familiar with their firewalls. Firewalls are easy to integrate into Panorama, and configuring multiple at a time with templates saves a lot of time.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that some updates break connections.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
it's saving me time in allowing me to configure multiple small firewalls with the same security policies.

The best when comes to Firewall management
What do you like best about the product?
I have worked on several firewall management platforms such as Checkpoint smartcenter, Juniper`s Junos space, Cisco Firepower etc. and I found Panorama as the best among all owing to its simple user interface and one platform for all concept. The best part about is that you get a centralized interface that comprises of all the features at one place. The upgrade of the management platform is fairly easier and simplified as compared to other vendors.
What do you dislike about the product?
One may find the platform complex in the beginning and may require some training. In the beginning the platform was difficult for me to figure out but post getting some training sessions from the palo alto team, it was a smooth sail.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The centralized management and one shop solution for everything.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is well recommended for enterprise networks.
One of the best Product by Palo Alto for NGFW management.
What do you like best about the product?
Managing a firewall could be a tricky task as it handles the security of the infrastructure and all the network goes via that device to the internet. If you have an infrastructure which has more than 10+ sites, it is quite evident that managing a large number of firewall and keeping them updated all the time could be challenging and Panorama solves that problem by providing all your firewall at your infrastructure under a single dashboard.
What do you dislike about the product?
When you try to push a change in the network to mitigate a vulnerabilities, and if all the firewalls is not synced up with Panorama then you might face issues in pushing some change in your network. You need to make sure that all the firewall which sits under Panorama are synced.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing a large number of NGFW products and efficiently solving daily problems with Panorama and Palo Alto Support team.
Panorama is helpful, but not perfect
What do you like best about the product?
Panorama can help for managing the administration of a large number of Palo Alto firewalls. There are device groups and templates that can ease administrative efforts.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is at least one functional issue, one being the timeout. If you're using the context view in Panorama to manage a device directly, it doesn't seem to log that as active time on Panorama itself, so it will still log you out while you're in the middle of an active session. There is also a rather steep learning curve to get the templates/device groups and general mass management down correctly, so plan to spend a good deal of time researching and taking classes if you can..
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have devices all over the globe, so being able to manage devices at scale was a must. We can use templates and device groups in Panorama to push mass changes to all the affected devices rather easily. It is also possible to push software and PAN-OS updates from Panorama as well.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
Purchasing through the AWS Marketplace is a secure way to purchase this solution. Our organization chose to procure this solution via the AWS Marketplace because we have clients who were interested in the solution. Also, for out proof of concept, we decided to purchase it.
The pricing and licensing of this product on AWS should be from $1.28/hr or $4,500.00/yr. Then, it would be a good price for the performance that it delivers.
