"Fortinet FortiEDR's firewalling, rule creation, monitoring, and inspection profiles are great."
"The price is low and quite competitive with others."
"The stability is very good."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of Fortinet FortiEDR was straightforward."
"Additionally, when it comes to EDR, there are more tools available to assist with client work."
"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 most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure."
"The CylancePROTECT agent is very low on CPU usage, so it has virtually no adverse impact on my servers, desktops, or workstations."
"Endpoints are protected in real-time without the need of a centralized server."
"Blackberry Protect offers endpoint protection. It's easy to deploy. It's scalable and stable."
"The Application Guard and ByteGuard are useful features."
"A user can continue to add endpoints and the solution will continue to perform well."
"Has good RAM capacity for the power I need"
"The solution’s AI is its most valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature of CylancePROTECT is the support."
"I like that Kaspersky isn't heavy."
"The most valuable feature is the central view. With this view, I can see all of the data."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business detects malware and is easy to configure."
"The product is quite scalable."
"The implementation and integration are easy."
"Especially the firewalling, I found useful, as you can control the applications and services on a granular level to tell them where they have access to or not."
"I think that all the features are valuable for our environment."
"I am impressed with the tool's main dashboard, anti-malware application blocking, DDoS, etc."
"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."
"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."
"I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components."
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"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."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations."
"We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels."
"CylancePROTECT's dashboard could be more user-friendly."
"The price for this EPP platform is expensive and could be improved."
"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 needs real analysis of quarantined files. The EDR product isn't showing much right now."
"The management console needs a little maturity in how it presents data and allows the administrator to drill down or search across systems."
"The company that sells us the licenses sometimes doesn't know how to do certain things."
"It could have integration with industrial base HMIS or Human Machine Interfaces Solutions. This is the industrial environment where you have a control center for all the automation that's happening, whether it is oil, gas, or chemical manufacturing. They often have to set up a computer at the back and watch the other stuff to get alerts. In these autonomous or on-premises environments, they often don't have access to email readily. Integration with other industrial solutions, such as HMIS, will allow them to communicate and get an alert that something has been found. This way, they can react to it sooner than having somebody watch the screen and keep checking the screen. Rockwell has its own suite. Similarly, Honeywell has its own suite. There's also an independent HMI/historian solution provider out there called VTSCADA. We actually get asked if we can get it to show up on a screen, which is difficult. Getting those alerts to work within an industrial environment would be a huge plus."
"We would like to see secure integration and multi-factor authentication to be able to access the administration dashboard."
"The solution could be more secure."
"There are times when Microsoft Windows's antivirus called Defender interferes with the functionality of Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business. There should be better integration with Windows."
"When I do a malware scan on my computer it takes a long while. This process could improve in the future. Additionally, the security could improve."
"When it comes to handling the expiration of licenses, the solution should give a company more time to set up a renewal. It happens too abruptly right now."
"We would like to know where attacks are coming from."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security could have more visibility and threat hunting. Right now, if it detects a file, it's quarantined, and then we can't find more details other than the path and the file name. We don't see what process it's warning off and how the virus got in. So, the reporting on the quarantined items, why were they quarantined, etc., could be improved."
"I think it would be good for them to consider and cloud integration capabilities."
"It's grown more expensive and customers are not happy about it."
