Great VM series Virtual firewall by Palo Alto Networks

Palo Alto vm solution fitted perfectly to Us
What do you like best about the product?
I have worked with global enterprise clients using different Network VM solutions and Palo Alto worked for us for two main aspects: having PA deployed universally on all our firewalls facilated the internal management of our naas by our team and the support from PA when needed was always spot on.
What do you dislike about the product?
VM firewalls can only have 9 DP interfaces that's a limitation that this kind of product has
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For our Naas architecture we benefited in terms of automation of the policy and device management, cost efficiency and scalability. In fact having several customers we often need to modificate policy and configuration and to rather migrate, change the architcture or install or dismiss new firewalls. So having an unique system like the PA solution is huge benefit for us.

Easy deployment to secure Cloud workloads

High cost is the major drawback when compared with other competitors in the market. All firewall features are not bundled being said that need licensing for some advanced features. As virtual VM it consumes high amount of resources and need a larger appliance to run VM.

App based filtering, IDS and IPS, enhanced monitoring etc

The Palo Alto Networks VM-Series Virtual Firewall makes securing cloud and virtual environments way easier by blocking threats, simplifying policy management, and enabling Zero Trust segmentation.
