"Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance."

"Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration."
"Fortinet has helped free up around 20 percent of our staff's time to help us out."
"he solution is an anti-malware product that integrates well with other vendor products such as firewalls, SIEM, etc. It captures threat intelligence and gives you better visibility. The product also has sandboxing features."
"The setup is pretty simple."
"Carbon Black CB Defense has helped improve my organization by allowing us to have better data so that we can do correlation and get visibility into the alerts."
"We can access computers remotely if we need to."
"Carbon Black Cb Defense has a nice component called Alert Triage. It contains full details of the process execution "kill chain" and "go live" for immediate remediation."
"I like the historical features, interface, and integration."
"The threat analysis functionality is good."
"The product allows us to focus on endpoint and antivirus protection."
"The whole purpose of the product, like application control, is very good, and also if you need to update some policies, it works well and instantly."
"One of the most valuable features is that it will block vulnerable sites. If there was a connection between one of our devices to a known malware site, it will block it."
"Auto-Remediation"
"They have a lot of features integrated from way back, which shows that the product developers know exactly what they're doing."
"The feature we found most valuable is the AI functionality for maintaining endpoint security. This is very powerful."
"The most valuable features of the solution include the endpoint navigation protection, the protection related to the EMS service, as well as the control and the cloud integration capabilities."
"I rate the initial setup phase a ten on a scale of one to ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy."
"It monitors traffic and keeps us from getting ransomware or other viruses."
"The initial setup was straightforward. It took five minutes. I installed the solution myself."
"I like that Webroot is very lightweight. It didn't bog down the machine, and more importantly, it had heuristics artificial intelligence to some degree. It wasn't like full-blown artificial intelligence, but something where you have one endpoint recognizing issues because it maintains a cloud database. If one client recognizes a threat, it would add it to the database, and almost immediately, every agent in the world would also know about that threat. That was very appealing to us. However, now it's becoming commonplace, whereas ventures like Symantec and McAfee were based more on the traditional model of definition and updates, and we were always falling behind. Webroot also has pretty good technical support."
"We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels."
"The only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs."
"The EDR console should have more extensive reporting. You shouldn't need to purchase FortiAnalyzer. It should be included in the EDR part. The security adviser cloud platform could be improved with more options for exclusive or intensive rules for devices."
"To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced."
"There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors."
"The solution's installation from a central installation server could be improved because the engineers had a little bit of trouble getting it installed from a central location."
"Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"Carbon Black has limited capability to integrate with Rapid7."
"Right now, Carbon Black CB Defense doesn't support cloud computing and Kubernetes."
"The application control can be improved. It should also have an automatic update of the agents."
"The product cannot perform an on-demand scan. They could add this particular feature."
"In our company, we also wanted to have network detection, like a host-based IDS on VMware Carbon Black Endpoint, but we did not get it."
"Integration is difficult, but CB Defense is more powerful than others. It is difficult to implement but easy to pick up many detections."
"The feature set for the firewall needs improvement."
"I'm not sure as to the logic of how we've decided to customize it. We've only really used it since February and therefore there may be more to do on that front. That's why it's hard to say if something is missing or if we just aren't utilizing it."
"One of the biggest pain points is that it's not really ransomware-oriented. They will be able to catch some, but that's where Sentinel One is a better player compared to Webroot."
"I did notice that my OS slowed down, but I don't know if that's due to Webroot."
"It needs to improve the problems with the faster connection, and have a huge reduction in false positives."
"We need more control over when upgrades to the app are rolled out."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection needs to focus on how they can widen their area of scope by not just being an antivirus tool anymore. The shortcoming in the customization area of the tool needs improvement."
"An updated UI would be nice, but is not hardly used."
"The solution could improve by providing better ransomware protection."
"They should provide more information on the type of cyber attacks."
