We performed a comparison between Check Point Harmony Endpoint and CylancePROTECT 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."This is stable and scalable."
"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"
"Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration."
"We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats."
"The most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure."
"The console is easy to read. I also like the scanning part and the ability to move assets from one to the other."
"It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of Fortinet FortiEDR was straightforward."
"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 most valuable feature of Check Point Harmony Endpoint is it can be used for all kinds of endpoints, including mobile phones."
"The most useful feature so far has been having a functioning and up-to-date anti-malware scanner."
"It scans all the endpoints in your cloud and on-premises for vulnerabilities, threats, and malware attacks."
"The solution has all the standard features you would expect for endpoint protection."
"Harmony's endpoint sandboxing is really good."
"Forensic Analysis provides a complete analysis of threats via detailed reports."
"Information is easily managed and protected (which is particularly useful in lost or stolen endpoints)."
"With the prevention blade, Harmony scales higher than many other solutions."
"The most valuable feature of CylancePROTECT is the support."
"The Application Guard and ByteGuard are useful features."
"I rate the tool a ten out of ten when it comes to the ease of use or management part."
"Blackberry Protect offers endpoint protection. It's easy to deploy. It's scalable and stable."
"It provides good insight into the programs, applications, or websites that may need attention."
"The non-daily requirement to update signatures is the most valuable feature. From a functional point of view, it is pretty spot on. For instance, we compared an algorithm from five years ago to today's algorithm, and it was 98% accurate. It has the ability to detect and mitigate. In the industrial environment that we work in, there's what we call OT versus IT. You are IT Central, but this is OT. Generally, we don't have the same level of skillset as IT individuals or IT professionals have. This particular product doesn't require you to be a computer scientist to be able to understand its proprietary algorithm and to be able to deploy, use, and work within it. It integrates well with a robust SIEM or SOAR solution, and it plays nice with others. We use other detection solutions like CyberX or site provision with Cisco, and it plays nice. That's one of the things we really liked about it."
"CylancePROTECT is very stable - we've had no issues with performance and no errors or bugs."
"Endpoints are protected in real-time without the need of a centralized server."
"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."
"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."
"Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."
"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 only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs."
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"The solution is not stable."
"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."
"Sometimes, with a lot of clients (1,000) the UI is a bit sluggish."
"Infinity Portal sometimes requires more performance."
"Its customer support services and user interface could be improved."
"There needs to be compatibility with the most recent versions of the various operating systems."
"This is one of the most innovative solutions due to the fact that it includes many real-time content filtering features, management, and assurance of the transactions of what went in or out of our peripherals. That said, it is important to integrate other solutions to continue innovating in the market."
"Compared to other brands, we would like a dedicated anti-spam to be included in order to close the full circle."
"The Infinity Portal login is "iffy" at times."
"They could improve memory consumption."
"The process of whitelisting a script that you want to be able to run can be a little bit difficult, or awkward."
"We would like to see secure integration and multi-factor authentication to be able to access the administration dashboard."
"An area for improvement in CylancePROTECT is its pricing, as it's a bit costly."
"While you are working, you are finding these things that were supposed to be waived have come back to being blocked. That's frustrating."
"The user interface is outdated."
"The security scripting needs improvement. It needs deeper security for scripting."
"The management console needs a little maturity in how it presents data and allows the administrator to drill down or search across systems."
"It is hard to manage."
