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 setup is pretty simple."
"Having all monitoring, response, tracking, and mitigation tools in one dashboard provides our analysts and SOC team with a comprehensive view at a glance."
"It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of Fortinet FortiEDR was straightforward."
"Fortinet FortiEDR's scalability is quite good, and you can add licenses to the solution."
"Fortinet FortiEDR made our clients feel secure and more at ease, knowing that they had an EDR solution that would close the gap in their security posture."
"This is stable and scalable."
"It is stable and scalable."
"The stability is very good."
"It efficiently investigates security incidents."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"If you detect a virus, you can isolate the PC from the network and prevent access to the internet, network and routers. Once fixed, you can give access back to the client. We have not had this functionality using other solutions."
"The initial setup is easy."
"One of the most valuable features is the signature updating in near real-time."
"The Ultra is a valuable feature."
"Bitdefender is a well-supported platform."
"The most valuable feature of Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra is the ETX and ETM endpoint protection."
"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."
"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' best feature is the threat-hunting expertise that is part of their 24/7 SOC."
"I have found it valuable that this solution is always there and always armed."
"While threat hunting is undoubtedly the most valuable feature, the combination of IP scanning, foothold identification, and canary monitoring has also proven to be incredibly beneficial."
"The most valuable aspect of Huntress is its 24/7 SOC service."
"Foothold detection is a valuable feature, acting as a valuable second set of eyes for both us and our clients."
"Huntress helps by highlighting potential issues, allowing us to take proactive measures."
"The only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs."
"Intelligence aspects need improvement"
"The support needs improvement."
"The solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection."
"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."
"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."
"We find the solution to be a bit expensive."
"Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."
"There is a need to work on the deployment, when it comes to deploying to Windows machines with regards to downloading the size of the package."
"Occasionally websites are unnecessarily blocked due to monitoring software on those sites."
"The solution is sometimes resource-intensive."
"I have not had used the EDR portion of the solution to do any custom scripting to allow further advanced operations on the endpoints. From what I understand from reading the comments on reviews is that it is not particularly flexible in this regard."
"I would like to see a remote desktop for installed endpoints so administrators can see what is on a user's screen or what a user is doing."
"They were working on the encryption management for laptops, and if they complete it then it would be helpful."
"The one thing that we are missing and want to see is user analytics. So, that is what I'm really interested in: behavior analytics and end user behavior."
"The areas of Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) and Extended Detection and Response (XDR) could benefit from improvement in terms of how problems are reported and displayed. The way the problems are presented and the information provided could be improved."
"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."
"We need an API to automatically retrieve metrics and data about backend activity so we can generate client reports."
"The solution's UI is an area with certain shortcomings that need improvement."
"In the next release, I'd like to see more intuitive dashboards."
"The application control system could benefit from improvements in identifying and managing both whitelisted and blacklisted applications."
"The Huntress is not a standalone solution. It really needs to be used with something else such as Microsoft Defender or another antivirus solution. It would be nice to see the product fleshed out by the Huntress team and include the antivirus solution part as well. I want it to be a full-fledged XDR product. It would push the tool to a higher price range but it would be nice to see the fleshed out features. I want them to integrate more features from the XDR realm."
"Their EDR can have increased coverage for Macintosh. They do not fully secure Macintosh computers."
