"We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats."
"Fortinet FortiEDR's scalability is quite good, and you can add licenses to the solution."

"This is stable and scalable."
"The stability is very good."
"NGAV and EDR features are outstanding."
"Bitdefender GravityZone EDR's installation is straightforward."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"The most valuable features are the anti-malware and firewall policies. The runtime scans and execution have been beneficial to our business."
"The most valuable feature of Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra is the ETX and ETM endpoint protection."
"The setup was easy."
"The solution is probably one of the top five, best security solutions on the market at the moment."
"The features that are most useful are the simplicity of deploying the package and the cryptosystem for managing all the situations on the computer."
"Bitdefender is a well-supported platform."
"WatchGuard is very user-friendly. It provides us with all of the security services we need."
"I like WatchGuard's network segmentation features. It's easy to configure user policies."
"The analytics are important because if there is an abnormality then it provides that information to us."
"The solution is very easy to use."
"WatchGuard Threat Detection and Response is a reliable solution."
"The most valuable feature, in my opinion, is the dimension logging platform and the network traffic filtering."
"The basic functionality is fantastic. It has been performing well. I generated a report on one machine, using that as the deployment machine. When scanning the network, it discovered machines on the network and deployed the same endpoint protection from that one machine I have on my network."
"When you download the executable file from the internet, it automatically sandboxes to make sure it's not doing anything incorrectly."
"The solution is not stable."
"The SIEM could be improved."
"The solution is not user-friendly."
"The support needs improvement."
"Detections could be improved."
"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 EDR console should have more extensive reporting. You shouldn't need to purchase FortiAnalyzer. It should be included in the EDR part. The security adviser cloud platform could be improved with more options for exclusive or intensive rules for devices."
"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 pricing should be improved. The user interface has been improved on a yearly basis. The key issue is that they need to look at their pricing."
"The main area for improvement is the dashboard of the cloud console, where we manage security policies and groupings. It needs to be more flexible and informative."
"The graphical user interface for EDR could be improved."
"They need to improve their encryption capabilities."
"The software itself is solid. It would be better if it was more of a real-time solution, like SentinelOne. The one thing that holds me back on the SentinelOne side is that I can blacklist websites and stuff like that, but it's not as granular as Bitdefender. With Bitdefender, I feel like I have more control over what I can whitelist and blacklist."
"I have not had used the EDR portion of the solution to do any custom scripting to allow further advanced operations on the endpoints. From what I understand from reading the comments on reviews is that it is not particularly flexible in this regard."
"We would like to see a more advanced dashboard."
"The reporting is much too simple."
"I'd like a few extra features, especially around threat severity assessment."
"The administrative UI/UX could be significantly improved."
"It can have a couple of false positives, but after you add them to your allow list, it works fine. It could have better Mac support. I am pretty sure it doesn't have much support for Mac. It can be installed on a Mac, but it is not that good."
"This product needs to be fully integrated with the firewall. Currently, it only sends logs to the cloud and asks the firewall to correlate them."
"The reporting isn't so good. If they worked to improve this aspect of the solution, it would be much stronger."
"The website must provide more information on the product."
"When it comes to live-monitoring, the user-interface could be improved to make things easier."
"The solution is a bit confusing and there are unusual complications with setup."
