Overall Satisfaction with Palo Alto Panorama
Palo Alto Panorama gives the centralized tool for managing all the Palo Alto firewall gateways across regions, DCs etc.
It gives easy way to manage firewalls, avoids duplication of works in case you need similar policy sets / configurations on multiple firewalls and also gives centralized logs across all the firewalls behind it.
In shorts, you can manage multiple Palo Alto firewalls from single console without login into the actual firewall. So it is highly recommended when you have large environments and you have multiple single or HA pairs of Palo Alto firewalls in it.
