Find out in this report how the two Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure."
"It is stable and scalable."
"The console is easy to read. I also like the scanning part and the ability to move assets from one to the other."
"Fortinet is very user-friendly for customers."
"I get alerts when scripts are detected in the environment."
"Fortinet FortiEDR's firewalling, rule creation, monitoring, and inspection profiles are great."
"Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance."
"Fortinet has helped free up around 20 percent of our staff's time to help us out."
"The solution has great blocking features."
"The solution is stable."
"The most valuable feature of Symantec Endpoint Detection and Response is its ability to conduct large scans on the endpoints without affecting the network."
"The most valuable features are that it is easy to connect and global settings are good."
"The solution does its job with no issues."
"I like Symantec EDR's device control and USB security features."
"It is very simple to use."
"I have had absolutely no problem with using this solution, it really works well."
"The seamless deployment is very valuable."
"The investigation and forensic analysis have been most helpful."
"A great console with a user-friendly GUI."
"If the network has seen something, we can use that to put a block to all the endpoints."
"The installation phase of the solution was very easy."
"FireEye Endpoint Security is easy to use and lightweight compared to others."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its dashboard."
"It is easy to use, flexible, and stable. Because it is a cloud-based solution and it integrates all endpoints of the cloud, we can do an IOC-based search. It can search the entire enterprise and tell us the endpoints that are possibly compromised."
"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."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"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."
"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."
"Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"The solution is not user-friendly."
"The SIEM could be improved."
"The solution needs to provide better integration."
"That's why I wouldn't recommend it for other systems. It works only with SAP clients. That's why I'm giving it a six. It would get higher if it worked on all networks without the help of SAP."
"It should be easier to deploy Symantec's client for end-users."
"The interface is very complicated."
"While they are quite dynamic, they need to ensure they are detecting threats faster in the future to keep people safer."
"Reporting is a major issue, as it is not user friendly."
"The interface has many issues."
"They do need to minimize the number of agents installed on a server."
"Intrusion detection and intervention seem to be falling behind the competition."
"They have something called Managed Detection and Response. They get intel from their customers, and that intel is shared with the rest of FireEye's customers. I want to subscribe to their intel, but that is not available to us."
"Most of these types of solutions including others, such as Carbon Black and FortiEDR, all have the same features. However, Carbon Black is the leader when it comes to being robust and user-friendly and this solution should improve in those areas to stay more competitive."
"The initial setup can be a bit complicated for those unfamiliar with the product."
"Performance is a problematic area in the solution needing improvement."
"So far, McAfee MVISION Endpoint ticks off all of our boxes, but its pricing could always be better."
"The technical support needs some improvement. When product distribution errors occur, we have to contact technical support, which is a very tedious task."
"Impacts performance of the servers quite negatively."
