Overall Satisfaction with Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation Firewalls - PA Series

The PA is used for the entire company. It has been used as a stand-alone for the one building as well as site to site VPN with a second building and mandatory VPN access for remote employees.

Pros

  • The URL filtering is awesome.
  • Wildfire is an amazing feature.
  • Traffic reporting is very useful.
  • Expandability is easy, you can easily add additional services.

Cons

  • Configure ability is not as simple for someone who isn’t an expert.
  • Support goes overseas and while they have been very helpful, there are often issues communicating.
  • Positive: It has stopped malicious downloads.
  • Positive: allowed us to easily scale as we quickly grew.
PA was cheaper than the managed services I would be purchasing with Sonicwall.
Any small to large business that wants high availability. The redundancy of the PAs is well worth the extra cost.
