We performed a comparison between CylancePROTECT and Malwarebytes 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."Fortinet FortiEDR's firewalling, rule creation, monitoring, and inspection profiles are great."
"The stability is very good."
"he solution is an anti-malware product that integrates well with other vendor products such as firewalls, SIEM, etc. It captures threat intelligence and gives you better visibility. The product also has sandboxing features."
"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."
"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."
"Fortinet has helped free up around 20 percent of our staff's time to help us out."
"The product detects and blocks threats and is more proactive than firewalls."
"What's most valuable in CylancePROTECT is the optics feature. I also like its easy-to-use and user-friendly dashboard and monitoring system."
"Has good RAM capacity for the power I need"
"CylancePROTECT is very stable - we've had no issues with performance and no errors or bugs."
"It provides good insight into the programs, applications, or websites that may need attention."
"A user can continue to add endpoints and the solution will continue to perform well."
"Two or three years ago when the WannaCry virus struck, the people that were on Cylance were the ones that weren't affected."
"The most valuable feature of CylancePROTECT is the support."
"The deployment of updates is easy."
"It's very versatile and thorough."
"The protection is really good with Malwarebytes. It's also user friendly and quite easy to set up."
"It gets the job done, and they are consistently updating it monthly."
"It allows us to have better knowledge of the way people use the tool and how we can improve their workflows."
"The central management of devices from different sites is a very good feature; this has made them much easier to manage."
"The pricing of the product is very good."
"Provides successful ransomware shut down operations."
"Ten times a day, improved signatures will be downloaded, so it is very up-to-date in terms of malware experience."
"FortiEDR can be improved by providing more detailed reporting."
"It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations."
"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."
"I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components."
"ZTNA can improve latency."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"I'd like them to do software distribution too, but they said that that's architecturally not at the product line."
"It was not effective. There were a lot of false positives, even when we use Adobe, and everybody uses Adobe, which is not a threat."
"It's a good solution but some features just need to be updated."
"The stability could be improved."
"They could improve on the false positives, reporting and whitelisting features."
"It should have better support for Windows and Mac."
"An area for improvement in CylancePROTECT is its pricing, as it's a bit costly."
"The AI of CylancePROTECT has room for improvement. I'm on a trial license of SentinelOne, and its AI is much better than what's on CylancePROTECT."
"Requires increased efficiency in terms of detecting false positives."
"Every once in a while, it gets clobbered by updates from other places. I don't think this should happen."
"The product is a little bit more expensive than the other brands."
"The interface could be improved. Currently, you need to really dig around to find the elements you need."
"The EPP solution lacks the sophisticated artificial intelligence required for automating reports and letting you know about things in real-time. It stops a suspicious activity in real-time, but it doesn't let you know in real-time. You have to look at a report, and then you find out that something is wrong. You have to manually kick off a scan. With the Advanced EDR solutions, Malwarebytes has the ability to alert you in real-time, but they still don't do automatic remediation or quarantining of devices. That is something that you still have to do manually. So, the endpoint protection piece, which is just like their basic endpoint protection, lacks AI. For the advanced detection and response piece, there is an add-on that comes with it, but it still doesn't go far enough in terms of automatic remediation of viruses. It won't separate that virus from your network if something happens. You have to manually go there and do it."
"I would like to see integration with other vendors going forward."
"We had a little performance problem with the solution, but that's been resolved. Since then, it's been running well."
"We have noticed that when the solution is doing the scanning, all the scanning activities make the device heavier. It slows down your machine."
