"Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR."
"Fortinet has helped free up around 20 percent of our staff's time to help us out."
"I like FortiClient EMS. FortiEDR has a lot of great features like lockdown mode, remote wipes, and encryption. I can set malware outbreak policies and controls for detecting abnormalities. You can also simulate phishing attacks."
"It is stable and scalable."
"The setup is pretty simple."
"This is stable and scalable."
"The product detects and blocks threats and is more proactive than firewalls."
"The deep visibility is a valuable feature. I can use it during threats or alert signals that we get. I can also use it when we have alert signals from other security tools that we have."
"I have found the most valuable feature to be the rapid threat detection."
"It is purely cloud-based, meaning you don't need to have something installed, such as a server on-prem. You have cloud management and can access it from anywhere, with integration with SSO, with one click. It's also very lightweight."
"In the past, we were not able to identify a few viruses, but now we are able to identify them because of the machine learning feature."
"I have found the activity timeline and threat analysis to be particularly useful."
"It has the ability to rollback a ransomware infection instantly and with minimal disruption to the user & provides robust reporting."
"In terms of the engines that SentinelOne uses, it has stopped various scripts from running and it's highlighted lateral movement that we weren't expecting."
"The fact that SentinelOne is actively looking for threats and runs them against the hash on the Internet to determine if they are malicious or not, is what takes it to the next level compared to other antivirus products."
"The features I found most valuable in this solution are the micro apps. I also value the dashboard that offers better visibility and helps protect machines from attacks."
"Trend Micro Apex One is good at detecting zero-day threats. When the solution was in operation I did not notice any system performance problems. Upgrades of the solution were simple to do and there are plenty of features."
"I like One Endpoint Security. We can manage all the Trend Micro products from one console."
"Its real-time features are valuable. It is in real-time, and it works fine."
"I like Apex One's USB port blocking. We implement different policies for each client. For example, a client might ask us to block certain USB devices or require us to restart a desktop on the network."
"The solution is stable and scalable."
"The product has proven to be very flexible over the years that we have had it."
"The solution is powerful, simple to use, and very flexible. Having the solution in the cloud allows us to do remote work from anywhere."
"The solution is not stable."
"They can include the automation for the realtime updates. We have a network infrastructure with remote sites. Whenever they send updates, they are not automated. We have to go into the console and push those updates. I wish it was more automated. The update file is currently around 31 MB. It could be smaller."
"The support needs improvement."
"ZTNA can improve latency."
"Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete should focus on analytical data. Backend aggregation can make things faster in the front end."
"It would be good to see some small tools to test files or hashes that are a potential threat, I know there are already products offering this."
"We have had cases where Singularity Complete has caused applications to malfunction."
"I would like to see a better mobile app so that I could look through my phone at the alerts and not have to go to the website. They should make it a little more mobile-accessible."
"The solution can use up a lot of resources when scanning. It would be ideal if it was lighter."
"The ability to integrate this product with an antivirus solution would be welcome. Even consolidation with more security products, like Umbrella networking abilities etc. to provide more on this platform, that would be great."
"I would like to have the same features such as ransomware that are available on the cloud version of SentinelOne also made available for the on-prem version because a lot of people in our region are not ready for cloud solutions."
"Singularity Complete's process stream has room for improvement."
"I would like to see behavior analysis capabilities included."
"Some of the updates still require a complete reboot of the system."
"In the next release, I would like to see IBS included in OfficeScan."
"We have to manually log in to the machines and give them an update command."
"They could improve the integration with Active Directory."
"I can't think of any specific areas that need improvement."
"We had a few occasions where we had to turn off our clients' computers to upgrade the drivers."
"Trend Micro Apex One could improve by having better integration in the future."
