"NGAV and EDR features are outstanding."
"It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of Fortinet FortiEDR was straightforward."
"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."

"Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"It is intuitive and easy to use. For the most part, it does a good job of catching things. It is good at stopping stuff. I did a couple of tests with a password cracker. I tried to load that on, and Malwarebytes didn't let me do that, which was pretty good. It has a rollback feature that I haven't seen with any other company. If one of your endpoints are hit with mass ransomware, you could actually roll it back. I watched a demo of them do that, and it was pretty sweet."
"Being able to carry out a full scan on your system."
"I was very satisfied with Malwarebytes in terms of its antivirus abilities."
"We don't have to spend any time remediating bad things happening: Not viruses nor ransomware."
"The platform is straightforward to install."
"Being able to cloud manage it from just a cloud login is valuable. We can get to it from anywhere, which is really helpful. The fact that we can remediate from the cloud console is one of our favorite features."
"Ten times a day, improved signatures will be downloaded, so it is very up-to-date in terms of malware experience."
"This solution helps us by providing central management of anti-malware and anti-exploit functionality."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"The triage feature that shows you the whole chain of the malware is useful."
"The EDR and reports were helpful in improving our organization."
"VMware Carbon Black Endpoint is a highly stable solution."
"The most valuable feature is that it detects and stops malicious executables."
"The new feature that we're deploying, the new offering from Carbon Black, is MDR, which stands for manage, detect, and response. It's the most valuable feature because Carbon Black will be continuously checking the logs, and they will be advising us on how to improve some of the policies as well as review the logs. If there are any nefarious agents or things happening on the end points, they will know."
"For Carbon Black Endpoint, the possibility of integration with different other software's log servers is the important thing. Having just one point of view is more interesting so you don't need to go to different places to see all the information."
"Once the solution is installed and configured correctly it does not require a lot of hands-on attention until you need upgrading."
"We've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments."
"The SIEM could be improved."
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"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."
"Detections could be improved."
"The only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs."
"The solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection."
"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."
"The online reporting needs to be improved. Currently, we have to look at it online, and if we want to download a report, it just downloads as an Excel file. It's just raw information. There needs to be some way to better display it when it's downloaded."
"I would like to see integration with other vendors going forward."
"The stability and performance of the solution are areas with shortcomings that need improvement."
"It's not good in search hunting."
"Requires increased efficiency in terms of detecting false positives."
"My clients have frequently encountered some tech support scams where when you go to a particular website, it throws up a fake warning to you and states that you need to call this number."
"Strictly in terms of cyber security, the release cycle should be quarterly, at most. It shouldn't be more frequent than that because, for one thing, keeping up with tech support is difficult."
"They could come up with better reporting capabilities."
"I haven't run into anything that needs improvement. The website interface can be a little bit better, but it's still good as compared to most others."
"The solution needs expanded endpoint query tools."
"Its compatibility can be improved. It did crash a server during deployment, which is not something that I want to happen. Its deployment should also be easier. The whole deployment cycle needs to be simplified. It is an enterprise solution, and to set it up right now, you have to be an expert."
"This solution could have greater granular control on how certain applications work."
"Carbon Black CB Defense has helped improve my organization by allowing us to have better data so that we can do correlation and get visibility into the alerts."
"In my company, we face issues sometimes when there is a need to write custom rules or we want to write for some rules that are different from the standard rules provided by the solution."
