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."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 solution was relatively easy to deploy."
"The ease of deployment and configuration is valuable. It's very easy compared to other vendors like Sophos. Sophos' configuration is complex. Fortinet is a lot easier to understand. You don't need a lot of admin knowledge to do the configuration."
"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"
"Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR."
"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."
"The price is low and quite competitive with others."
"The standout features are primarily EDR and MDR."
"It scans all the endpoints in your cloud and on-premises for vulnerabilities, threats, and malware attacks."
"The solution has good threat intelligence features."
"Cost-wise it's cheaper than other options."
"The zero-day threat prevention is excellent."
"It helps us to detect running malicious activity in our network and after the COVID situation, most users are working from home where it becomes very difficult for IT admin to maintain security so such type of solution definitely helps us to prevent cyber attacks."
"We are able to manage all our endpoints from a single cloud console."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"All the features of Fortinet FortiNAC are valuable."
"The solution is good at giving a deep dive into each product. It tells you, for example, what is connected to the network. It gives us good reporting tools."
"The most valuable features are the ease of deployment and ease of use."
"It is a good product."
"The interface is good and simple to use."
"FortiNAC has enhanced our network visibility because FortiNAC monitors MAC addresses and other network devices, like Cisco, Catalyst, or HPE switches."
"The features are more expandable."
"This solution is very easy to implement and use. The interface is user-friendly."
"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."
"Intelligence aspects need improvement"
"The amount of usage, the number of details we get, or the number of options that can be tweaked is limited in comparison to that with other EDR solutions"
"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."
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."
"The solution is not stable."
"Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."
"It needs to include built-in deployment. This will make the job easier rather than having to go and dig up an Active Directory deployment along with policy objects."
"Sometimes, the Cloud Management Portal can become unresponsive or take a long time to process a query. This in turn will cause the browser to freeze, which will require closing and reopening of your browser."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's agent is a bit heavy."
"We would like to make the documentation for more modern solutions like the Harmony family easier to find."
"It would be useful if you could also mark blocks as safe from a client. Now users always have to ask an admin to make exclusions."
"Check Point offers solutions with only a few features for our company's customers' sites."
"As I understand there will be a URL filtering feature included with the browser agent in the future. This will allow URL filtering without the need for a Gateway Device. This is something I am looking forward to and would be a great addition to list of features."
"They should also add new functions such as threat hunting."
"Classifications and visibility need to be improved a lot. They have to start work on being agentless. Agentless means they need to have strong integration with Windows."
"Fortinet FortiNAC's device compatibility could be improved, particularly for VoIP devices."
"The technical support is bad. We've had to escalate to Tier 2 and Tier 3. My customer relationship manager on the other side of this has stopped returning phone calls and emails, because there has been such a constant back and forth."
"I would like to be able to compare the configuration backup before and after."
"The user interface and the product's intuitiveness could be improved."
"Fortinet FortiNAC could improve its hardware for use with cloud-based firewalls."
"The dashboard needs to improve."
"The course content could be improved, it's not that simple to work through."
