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."The solution was relatively easy to deploy."
"The setup is pretty simple."
"Additionally, when it comes to EDR, there are more tools available to assist with client work."
"The price is low and quite competitive with others."
"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."
"It is stable and scalable."
"Fortinet is very user-friendly for customers."
"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."
"It warns you if there is a threat and it's perfect because it runs in the background and doesn't interfere with anything."
"The solution can scale well."
"The ease of deployment and the command center that they have are the most valuable. It is basically self-monitoring. It doesn't require that much tinkering after you deploy or install."
"It's not heavy on the system."
"It's straightforward to set up."
"Avast as a product is as easy as it gets - everything is outlined and transparent in terms of licensing."
"It has increased productivity. IT threats are kept at a minimum because of this product."
"The performance is good compared to other products that slow down the laptop, post-installation."
"The initial setup is a very fast process."
"The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon for me is its unified sensor, applicable across all models."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"The initial setup is very simple."
"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."
"We are happy with CloudStrike's ease of use and touch notification."
"Because it is security product and acts like an AIML smart product, not merely based on daily/weekly updates and signatures."
"There's almost no maintenance required. It's very low if there's any at all."
"The solution is not stable."
"We've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments."
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."
"We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels."
"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"
"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 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."
"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."
"The solution could improve by providing more security."
"It should have proper and timely updates to deal with new viruses as they come onto the market."
"I would like to see better protection and more spyware included with the free version."
"Where I have faced a challenge is on the reporting. I would like to see something that provides information regarding the next month or quarter, in terms of reporting."
"It could download faster during deployment."
"The accuracy of the scanner could be improved."
"The solution needs to be more secure and work to protect us better from people trying to mess with our systems."
"It reduces network and bandwidth speed."
"The console is a little cluttered and at times, finding what you're looking for is not intuitive."
"The detection time has room for improvement."
"We'd like to see more integration capabilities."
"The dashboard area must be improved. We have integration with Splunk, and we are creating a dashboard there. Their dashboard area must be up to date. It should have more details and more options to create the reports and things like that."
"The Integration with tools, SOC tools, could be better."
"I would like to see a more accurate integration and an option to check the local machine."
"The solution could improve by providing more types of reports because it's in the detection span you cannot re-export anything. If it could be exported to a CSV file directly there it would help a lot. I currently need to do this by API to get what I need."
"I would like CrowdStrike to provide some correlation in the threat analysis, so we can visualize things better."
