Best security device in industry
What do you like best about the product?
Various security features like Anti Threat protection, Vulnerability protection, and Palo alto is working at layer 7 i.e Application layer which is very secure where application blocking is using application signature instead of port.
The dynamic Address group option is one of the best features I like as it reduced the time-consuming process of creating address groups manually.
One more interesting feature I like is "DNS Sinkhole" which is very effective in blocking C2 command control traffic.

What do you dislike about the product?
The main thing I dislike about the Palo Alto NGFW is, its booting time, if Power goes it takes too much time to restart the service
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
1. Securing user traffic going to the internet by applying strict Firewall rules with more restrictions.
2. Solved the problem of accessing office servers from remote locations (WFH).
3. We applied strict data leak prevention profiles available in NGFW and those are working very effectively more than expected.
