We performed a comparison between Symantec Endpoint Detection and Response and Trend Vision One based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."I like FortiClient EMS. FortiEDR has a lot of great features like lockdown mode, remote wipes, and encryption. I can set malware outbreak policies and controls for detecting abnormalities. You can also simulate phishing attacks."
"The price is low and quite competitive with others."
"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"
"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."
"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."
"We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats."
"This is stable and scalable."
"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."
"In Symantec, we have found that the most important feature is Application and Device Control."
"The most valuable features of Symantec Endpoint Detection and Response are its immediate response and investigation."
"The solution does all that we expect it to do."
"The pricing is pretty reasonable."
"IPS and the user interface are good features."
"The most valuable features are that it is easy to connect and global settings are good."
"The Detection vulnerability is very effective."
"The most valuable feature is that the same agent can act as the endpoint detection and response agent."
"Scaling is not a problem at all."
"The proactive approach is the best feature."
"The telemetric report is the most valuable feature."
"The zero-day vulnerability is valuable."
"For our day-to-day use cases, the correlation and attribution of different alerts are valuable. It is sort of an SIEM, but it is intelligent enough to run the queries and intentionally detect and prioritize attacks for you. At the end of the day, it is different data that you see. It correlates data for you and makes it meaningful. You can see that someone got an email and clicked a link. That link downloaded, for example, malware into the memory of the machine. From there, you can see that they started moving laterally to your environment. I quite like it because it gives visibility, so Workbench is what we use every day"
"It is a stable product. It works very well."
"It has good vulnerability protection."
"It helps us with investigations."
"I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components."
"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."
"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."
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"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."
"The solution is not stable."
"We've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments."
"The solution needs to provide better integration."
"Reporting is a major issue, as it is not user friendly."
"It would be nice to see more granular timeline analysis."
"The solution can always be more stable and more secure."
"It would be good if it can anticipate zero-day attacks. I don't know how it can be done and if it is even a feature of this product."
"Symantec Endpoint Detection and Response could improve the reporting. It is very difficult to create reports from the user interface."
"The GUI could be better."
"One potential area for improvement in Symantec EDR is the reporting engine."
"They should increase their potential for third-party integrations."
"The agent system is very slow, it needs to improve its performance."
"I think that continued optimization of the environment towards automation and orchestration, a kind of layer that sits underneath all of the technologies, would be extremely important."
"The product needs to have a lot more maturity, and they need to improve the overall technical support framework for getting the value out of XDR."
"We've received some mild complaints that the documentation is sometimes not up to date."
"Also, XDR should improve its coverage of the latest IOCs. Their suspicious object management works, but the coverage should be improved. It will take one or two months to get those things covered. XDR will detect on a behavioral basis, but these databases will not get updated daily like some other solutions. If you're dealing with new ransomware or malware, it may take around a month before it's covered by Trend Micro."
"The support has been delayed at times."
"It should integrate with more tools. There are a lot of tools that can do the PTP dump."
