Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, SentinelOne, CrowdStrike and others in Endpoint Protection Platform (EPP)."Fortinet FortiEDR's scalability is quite good, and you can add licenses to the solution."
"The ease of deployment and configuration is valuable. It's very easy compared to other vendors like Sophos. Sophos' configuration is complex. Fortinet is a lot easier to understand. You don't need a lot of admin knowledge to do the configuration."
"The stability is very good."
"The setup is pretty simple."
"Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR."
"Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration."
"It notifies us if there's any suspicious file on any PC. If any execution or similar kind of thing is happening, it just alerts us. It doesn't only alert. It also blocks the execution until we allow it. We check whether the execution is legitimate or not, and then approve it or keep it blocked. This gives us a little bit of control over this mechanism. Fortinet FortiEDR is also very straightforward and easy to maintain."
"The solution was relatively easy to deploy."
"The solution's most valuable aspect, for us, is the DLP portion of the product."
"With Sophos, the scanning of viruses and scanning of the disk is done silently in the background."
"Sophos EPP Suite stands out with its user-friendly dashboard and strong web filtering features for enhanced online security."
"It is a stable solution. I would rate the stability a ten out of ten."
"It is doing its job. We use it for standard antivirus purposes and for making sure that people aren't downloading infected attachments. Because we use the cloud version, it is easy to maintain. We don't have to do anything to really maintain it. It gets updated automatically."
"This product is quite stable and there are no problems with it."
"The most valuable features of Sophos EPP Suite are the synchronized threat and ransomware protection."
"Sophos EPP Suite's most valuable feature is ease of use."
"I like the anti-malware features."
"The solution's endpoint protection is the most valuable feature."
"The file integrity and log inspection are game-changing features for us."
"Trend Micro Deep Security is a complete solution and all the threat management has been taken care of."
"Signatures are frequently updated."
"It can scale well."
"It provides security and protection. The endpoint firewall is valuable."
"The most valuable features are web security, email filtering, and content filtering."
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"FortiEDR could add a separate scanning dashboard. In incident management, we prefer to remove the endpoint system from the environment and scan the system. We typically use Symantec for that, but if we want to use FortiEDR for that, then we need a scanning tab to clarify things."
"Everything with Fortinet having to do with their cloud services. They need to invest more in their internal infrastructure that they are running in the cloud. One of the things I find with their cloud environment compared to others' is that they go cheap on the equipment. So it causes some performance degradation."
"The solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection."
"We've had a lot of false positives; things incorrectly flagged that require manual configuration to allow. Even worse, after we allow a legitimate program, it sometimes gets flagged again after an update. This has caused a lot of extra work for my team."
"The security should be strong for the cloud. Some applications are on-prem and some are on the cloud. Fortinet should also have strong security for the cloud. There should be more security for the cloud."
"The support needs improvement."
"Detections could be improved."
"The solution lacks technical support."
"Sophos EPP Suite's support services need improvement."
"We have to use additional third-party solutions to fill the gaps in the capabilities of Sophos EPP Suite, such as using a mobility scanner. It would be helpful to add this feature."
"Sometimes there are issues with the antivirus back logs."
"There has been an increase of about 7-10% in recent months. That's why we face issues with customers who have been using it since 2017."
"One area for improvement in Sophos EPP Suite is the support response time, particularly of the management team. It could be faster because I only got a response from the manager after a few days. If you open a case directly from the website, the response from the technical support agent may have been faster. I didn't open the request from the website, so that could be the reason why the response time took longer."
"In the next release, I would like to see the phishing attached included in the firewall."
"In the future, I would like to see better third-party integration so that it can work in conjunction with our ticket system."
"The implementation can be inflexible and not easy, as it requires knowledge of things like virtualization and administration on Windows."
"Requires simplification, a fair amount of trouble shooting required."
"As for what could be improved, I think it should come with an XDR facility without any extra cost. They're always releasing new features, but we need to pay extra for them."
"f it had the capability of generating retroactive alerts it would be helpful."
"We'd like to see extended capacity in the on-premises versions."
"We want to see improved authentication."
"Deep Security's most valuable features are antivirus and host intrusion detection."
"They are still working on the company integration from TippingPoint because this was a recent acquisition from a few years ago. So, a Tipping Point integration with Deep Security, having one single pane of glass dashboard, would provide us a simple use case."
