Chose Palo Alto Networks Prisma Access
Palo Alto Networks Prisma Access is better than all the choices we looked at. With our in-house knowledge, ease of use, and Palo track record for innovating and having excellent security, it was a no-brainer to go with Palo Alto Networks Prisma Access. That being said, watch …
Chose Palo Alto Networks Prisma Access
Overall the main features are similar but we liked the ease of creating different configurations and security groups within Palo Alto and thought the cost was better for the overall value.
Chose Palo Alto Networks Prisma Access
The management of connections is much more seamless with the Palo tool. Anyconnect was always a nightmare to get in and manage individual connections to what can and cannot be accessed based on IP addresses. We ended going with the newer methodology of remote access so that our …
Chose Palo Alto Networks Prisma Access
The Mcafee product really isn’t a great option. The configuration is a nightmare and requires a lot of time. The policy management has a high learning curve.
Trellix Cloud Workload Security
Chose Trellix Cloud Workload Security
We use Mcafee Endpoint Security on user PCs and I must say that it is an excellent antivirus. The alerts we have had have been resolved without any problem. I totally recommend it.

Likelihood to Recommend
Depending on the complexity of your equipment, devices, the network you are with, the size of your company, or the budget you are willing to pay, you should consider buying Prisma. I have in mind that it is a tool to make the leap to extra security for your devices; it is a complex tool that cannot be learned in a single day. Without a doubt, I would recommend her to a company that has a proven track record and knows what it wants.

Suitable scenario: The McAfee Cloud Workload Security console has helped me a lot in saving physical resources. We no longer have to have a server and spend resources to maintain the console, everything is in the cloud. Unsuitable scenario: After the change to the cloud the McAfee Cloud Workload Security reduced many things that were made very easy when it was on a physical server. Active directory server integration with the console is a bit tricky. That should be improved and be somewhat more friendly when connecting to be able to migrate user machines.

Cons
  • It has created another area for us to manage some of the internet traffic for our users. Sites being open on-site and not on remote access or vice versa.
  • In general, the certificates are easier to handle than while on Cisco solution, it is still a pain to get the remote device a cert in place if it has "broken."
  • We would like to lock in the ability of which gateway we use to connect to the network. While it's not been an issue for us we have seen some oddness when using a different gateway than the preferred one.

  • Improve integration with windows server active directory.
  • The monitoring of the implementation of missing components of the antivirus should be improved.

Usability
I still say that Palo Alto Networks Prisma Access is the best. I love their GUI, their policies are easy to manage, the sales team is VERY helpful (especially when support is not). I still recommend them to everyone I talk to.
