Review of Palo Alto VM-Series: Pros and Cons for Secure Virtualized Environments
What do you like best about the product?
Palo Alto VM-Series apart is its ability to provide advanced security capabilities such as threat prevention, application visibility, and user identification in virtualized environments. Its granular visibility and control over application traffic and the ability to apply security policies consistently across physical and virtual networks are particularly valuable in multi-cloud environments.
What do you dislike about the product?
Cost: The VM-Series can be more expensive than other virtualized firewall solutions, and organizations may need to invest in additional licenses and hardware resources to fully utilize the product's capabilities.
Resource-intensive: Running Palo Alto VM-Series requires significant CPU and memory resources, which may not be available on smaller virtualization hosts or cloud instances. This can result in performance issues and increased infrastructure costs.
Learning curve: As with any advanced security solution, there is a learning curve associated with deploying and managing Palo Alto VM-Series. Administrators will need to familiarize themselves with the product's user interface, policies, and configurations, which can take time and effort.
Vendor lock-in: Because Palo Alto VM-Series is a proprietary solution, organizations may be locked into using it for their virtualized firewall needs. This can limit their flexibility and ability to adopt other security solutions that may be a better fit for their needs.
Limited integrations: While Palo Alto VM-Series integrates well with other Palo Alto Networks products and a variety of third-party solutions, there may be some integrations that are not available or require custom development work
