"The EDR and reports were helpful in improving our organization."
"To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced."

"An area for improvement in Ivanti Endpoint Security for Endpoint Manager is reporting. It's lacking. For example, Ivanti Endpoint Security for Endpoint Manager reports should tell you if the agent is up to date, if the security patch is updated, etc."
"The solution needs a complete overhaul or makeover. It gets stuck sometimes because they're focusing on the cloud UEM stuff rather than paying as much attention to that particular piece. The ease of use could be improved. It combines many different functionalities that you would need multiple servers like SCCM. If I wanted to train people, I’d move to a higher level from an Apache architect. There are five or six different products. So, training functional staff to use the product can be challenging because it can sometimes be cumbersome. Reporting is challenging. We use Avanti extraction to report off an endpoint. We don't use the reporting because of the need for more functionality, granularity, or customization."
"One of the features that Ivanti could improve is patching for non-Windows settings, such as Linux and Ubuntu."
"When you open a new mobile, you automatically come onboard the mobile on the Ivanti platform but it needs some improvements."

"Needs improvement in the area of infrastructure for on-premise installation."
"As far as I know, Carbon Defense has nothing that can be installed on mobile devices. It lacks a defense solution for mobile devices, especially mobile tablets. I would like to see support for mobile devices and the pricing should be less than the pricing for a normal workstation."
"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."
"When you view the triage, it will show you everything within a given time frame, and not only the attack that caused the alert, which is what I want to see. It shows you all the events during that time, and that can be quite confusing."
"I would like to see improvements made so that we can better see all of the processes."
"Right now, Carbon Black CB Defense doesn't support cloud computing and Kubernetes."
"This solution works well but needs lots of tuning and optimization."
"Certain settings have limitations. For example, I cannot manually block some malware activities."
