I haven’t faced any issues with the solution’s scalability. Our clients for the solution are large corporate or global customers.
How are customer service and support?
The solution’s technical support is very good.
How would you rate customer service and support?
How was the initial setup?
The solution's initial setup is easy if you have training and know what to do. The solution's deployment time depends a lot on the customer's requirements. It takes around half an hour to install the solution.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The smaller firewalls, like the PA-400 Series, are very good priced. Some of the challenges come with licensing and support on the larger boxes. Sometimes, it's cheaper to buy a new firewall with licensing instead of renewing the licenses of an old firewall.
Suppose you have a PA-3000 Series firewall. By the time of its renewal, Palo Alto will come up with the PA-1400 Series with better performance than the old PA-3000 Series. If the customer had one of the older ones, it would be cheaper for them to buy a new firewall on a lower tier and then get the licenses.
What other advice do I have?
The solution is deployed both on-premises and on the cloud. Palo Alto Networks VM-Series helps in securing our public cloud infrastructure. It is easy to integrate Palo Alto Networks VM-Series with other solutions. We have integrated the solution with Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager. It is easy to maintain the solution.
It is very important for users to get the solution implemented properly in the customer's network.
Overall, I rate the solution ten out of ten.
