We performed a comparison between CrowdStrike Falcon and Trend Micro ServerProtect 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."It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of Fortinet FortiEDR was straightforward."
"The features that I have found most valuable are the ability to customize it and to reduce its size. It lets you run in a very small window in terms of memory and resources on legacy cash registers."
"The price is low and quite competitive with others."
"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 solution was relatively easy to deploy."
"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."
"It is stable and scalable."
"Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance."
"The scalability is good."
"Since we deployed CrowdStrike, the network has become much calmer, and we now understand the sources of infections, which helps us prevent them from spreading."
"It helps us to identify the threats according to the behavior of any process that is running on any particular system. It helps immensely to identify any malicious behavior on any endpoints."
"The features we showcase to potential customers are prevention, malware protection, zero-day protection, and application scripting. Vulnerability assessment is another valuable feature."
"The features I like the most are the response time and the dashboard are both excellent."
"CrowdStrike Falcon is a very light solution. It does not use too much processor or RAM."
"The stability is very good."
"CrowdStrike enables the infrastructure managers to visualize all the events and get information about the network."
"The initial setup is very straightforward."
"Able to quarantine any malware."
"Performance is very good."
"The most valuable features are the anti-malware and antivirus capabilities."
"It helps us quickly address potential issues and provides us with valuable insights."
"Allows us to protect OneDrive and SharePoint, and emails too."
"Virtual Batching and the intelligent anti-malware components are valuable security tools."
"ServerProtect's best feature is virtual patching, which takes care of patching even if your servers aren't updated with the latest threat definitions."
"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."
"The solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection."
"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 only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs."
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."
"FortiEDR can be improved by providing more detailed reporting."
"I think cloud security and SASE are areas of concern in the product where improvements are required. The tool's cloud version has to be improved in terms of the security it offers."
"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"
"CrowdStrike Falcon could be enhanced by extending its security capabilities to include NDR and XDR."
"They respond quickly on the weekdays, but the weekend response times are slower."
"CrowdStrike Falcon could improve if it became an XDR. When we look only to an end-point, we lost the context of the environment. I know it's another line of design of the product. However, if CrowdStrike becomes an XDR, it could be very good."
"I would like to see a more accurate integration and an option to check the local machine."
"There are some areas where some customers would prefer a different service."
"CS Falcon sensing capabilities for non-domain machines should be enhanced since the agent doesn't detect the neighbor's IP Address and/or any anomaly which was identified in the network for the non-domain machine."
"If CrowdStrike can further expand its support for XDR compatibility, that would give it an edge over all the other competing new products."
"The solution needs to have integration with on-premises security devices and security facilities. That means all the security products, including the perimeter firewall, the DMZ."
"One thing I have been facing is that some fake threats have appeared that even Trend Micro was not able to clear up. It couldn't tell you why these threats are happening, where they are coming from and what the costs are."
"There are a few areas of improvement. Despite its high performance, there are certain aspects related to the operating system that could be improved. Specifically, I find that the protection for certain actions requires more effort compared to other actions."
"Lacking analytics and a machine learning technique."
"We found that when we push Trend Micro from the console to our client's PCs, we need to manually restart the PC. I have 500 users and the manual input is time-consuming."
"The endpoint protection could always be stronger."
"No built-in vulnerability scanner for management solutions."
"Notifications are not very good with Trend Micro."
"I would like to see SMS notifications sent as alerts, in case we do not have access to our email."
