"The console is easy to read. I also like the scanning part and the ability to move assets from one to the other."
"The stability is very good."
"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."
"Fortinet is very user-friendly for customers."
"The solution was relatively easy to deploy."
"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."
"Fortinet FortiEDR made our clients feel secure and more at ease, knowing that they had an EDR solution that would close the gap in their security posture."
"Advanced level endpoint firewall, which helps to block unwanted and malicious traffic."
"I like the integration; it lets you see the product installed on a particular computer."
"The most valuable features for me in ESET Endpoint Security are the antivirus feature and detection."
"The product does not slow down the machine."
"It has a clean and clear interface."
"This solution does not slow down your systems. It is very light."
"The pricing, if compared to other products, is cheap."
"It can block certain web pages that may contain viruses or pose a threat to the computer."
"It provides confidence by ensuring software programs are virus free and file integrity through an online backup."
"There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors."
"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 solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection."
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."
"The support needs improvement."
"It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations."
"We've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments."
"ZTNA can improve latency."
"The tool needs to explore security possibilities to secure iOS and Mac devices."
"The new versions only support no operative systems in Mac and do not support operative systems."
"I would like for ESET to create a central management solution. This would make it practical to use the internet for medium-sized networks."
"The feature is somewhat lacking in security protection."
"In terms of areas for improvement, I didn't see any from ESET Endpoint Security because what's important is that it works as an antivirus solution. I do find its pricing expensive here in Hungary, so if the price could be lower, that would be good. ESET Endpoint Security is an antivirus, so it only needs to stop the virus. If it had other features, I wouldn't need it. Every program or solution has specific functions and in this case, ESET Endpoint Security is worth it as an antivirus, though in the next release of the solution, it would be better if there's some improvement in its antivirus database."
"Its initial setup process could be more straightforward."
"The stability needs to be improved. There are bugs that you have to deal with."
"After we did the initial setup of ESET Endpoint Security, we had to inform users about popups. This solution comes with an in-built software firewall and there can be some popups coming. We must tell the user not to keep, allow, or block anything. That is the main issue on the user side we have faced. The user's experience may not be as good."
"The free online storage capacity is limited."
