We performed a comparison between ESET Endpoint Protection Platform and Huntress based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Endpoint Protection Platform (EPP) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats."
"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 console is easy to read. I also like the scanning part and the ability to move assets from one to the other."
"The setup is pretty simple."
"The main thing is that I feel safe. Because the processes that have been used to get a handle on the attackers are much better than other competitors"
"It is very easy to set up. I would rate my experience with the initial setup a ten out of ten, with ten being very easy to set up."
"Fortinet FortiEDR's scalability is quite good, and you can add licenses to the solution."
"It is stable and scalable."
"All of our devices are integrated with the solution."
"It's easy to set up and quick to deploy."
"This is a product at the top of its game. That is the reason we choose to support and sell it."
"It rarely gets in the way, and we don't even notice it scanning."
"The most valuable features of ESET Endpoint Antivirus are the search engine, easy firewall setup, and ransomware scans."
"I rate ESET Endpoint Security eight out of 10 for ease of setup. Setting up ESET can be straightforward or complicated depending on the customer's environment. The deployment time varies, but it's typically around five days. We have a team of four or five people involved in the deployment. Only one person is needed for maintenance. The only maintenance is adjusting the configuration of the dashboard."
"Installing and integrating ESET Endpoint Antivirus was easy. It prevents worms, malware, and Trojans."
"The solution provides good accessibility and is not heavy on resources when there are updates or when it is in operation."
"We don’t have the required staff to watch the issues that are happening. It is good to have a team from Huntress who can watch the logs 24/7. The tool’s automatic remediation is also fantastic. The solution’s interface is also nice and easy to use. The Huntress team saves us time by going through the issues."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten...I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."
"The EDR product is simple to install. It is low maintenance. All the alerts go to Huntress first, and their analyst team reviews them and sends actionable things our way."
"It is very easy to use. It is a great solution. They are one of the better vendors that I have ever worked with since I have been in the industry."
"Huntress helps by highlighting potential issues, allowing us to take proactive measures."
"It is incredibly efficient for our engineering team because Huntress provides all the information needed to fix issues, not just flag them."
"I have found it valuable that this solution is always there and always armed."
"The most valuable aspect of Huntress is its 24/7 SOC service."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"ZTNA can improve latency."
"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."
"There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors."
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"The solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection."
"FortiEDR can be improved by providing more detailed reporting."
"The amount of usage, the number of details we get, or the number of options that can be tweaked is limited in comparison to that with other EDR solutions"
"It's not scalable in that you cannot use a license for multiple devices."
"I'm unsure as to if they could actually support a large enterprise."
"The management of the solution isn't as clear as it could be. They could adjust that to make it a better product."
"The scalability could be better."
"The user interface of ESET Endpoint Security could be more user-friendly and more features could be added."
"I don't know if it's possible but I'm always looking for better protection."
"They need to improve licensing for VMs. When ESET is uninstalled from a VM, the seat stays on the license management server. We have to manually delete the seat from that server because it doesn't know how to handle it. I contacted exclusive ESET support here in Croatia and they told me there is no solution for this yet."
"It's hard to get support for ESET in Hong Kong and China. There's a number to call that goes nowhere. You can upgrade to the premium service, but there are a few restrictions."
"I'd like Huntress to implement a component that can analyze network traffic for specific sites."
"Some of Huntress' reporting could be improved."
"We need an API to automatically retrieve metrics and data about backend activity so we can generate client reports."
"In the next release, I'd like to see more intuitive dashboards."
"I would like the API to be a little better. They are getting there."
"I am anxiously watching to see how they evolve their MDR for Office 365. If anything, I would like more automated remediation capabilities in their MDR for Office 365."
"One area for improvement in Huntress would be to allow for PSA integration from a specific IP address or hostname for better security measures."
"The application control system could benefit from improvements in identifying and managing both whitelisted and blacklisted applications."
