We performed a comparison between CylancePROTECT and Malwarebytes based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."Additionally, when it comes to EDR, there are more tools available to assist with client work."
"Having all monitoring, response, tracking, and mitigation tools in one dashboard provides our analysts and SOC team with a comprehensive view at a glance."
"The features that I have found most valuable are the ability to customize it and to reduce its size. It lets you run in a very small window in terms of memory and resources on legacy cash registers."
"NGAV and EDR features are outstanding."
"The price is low and quite competitive with others."
"The product detects and blocks threats and is more proactive than firewalls."
"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."
"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."
"CylancePROTECT is very stable - we've had no issues with performance and no errors or bugs."
"Specifically for a Windows domain environment, the product can be customized and pushed via GPO or SCCM without issue."
"I rate the tool a ten out of ten when it comes to the ease of use or management part."
"The most functional item that we use is the process to turn off the false flags that it causes."
"On the management side, we liked the way it displays things."
"It provides good insight into the programs, applications, or websites that may need attention."
"It is a good endpoint solution. It is very easy to manage and detect the threat immediately. It will take the necessary actions."
"Centralized dashboard online which can be used for managing a huge product."
"The product keeps our company safe."
"This solution helps us by providing central management of anti-malware and anti-exploit functionality."
"Provides successful ransomware shut down operations."
"The central management of devices from different sites is a very good feature; this has made them much easier to manage."
"The endpoint protection and response that allows us to restore a machine back to a pre-infected state are the most valuable features."
"Being able to carry out a full scan on your system."
"The most valuable features of the solution are malware scanning and malware removal."
"When it comes to frontend protections, it has some of the best definitions. In addition, they do traditional signature and heuristic detection a lot better than Microsoft and some other players in that space."
"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."
"Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"ZTNA can improve latency."
"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 SIEM could be improved."
"The support needs improvement."
"The initial deployment was quite complicated."
"The solution’s technical support could be improved."
"rom my experience interacting with the primary or the central administrative console, it's quite complex. You would need a fair bit of technical experience to set it up, implement and maintain it. That would be one area for improvement."
"The solution should implement AI in the product."
"The solution’s user interface could be improved."
"The process of whitelisting a script that you want to be able to run can be a little bit difficult, or awkward."
"I would like to see a better UI in terms of sifting through more specific data and providing analytics. A little bit more would be nice."
"I'd like them to do software distribution too, but they said that that's architecturally not at the product line."
"It's not good in search hunting."
"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."
"Overall, I haven't found any ways the solution lacks in features or usability."
"They should make it faster, less taxing on the processor."
"Notifications are lacking."
"The product update capability needs to be improved."
"This solution reports far too many false positives!"
"I would like to see a little more detail in the log. So, when an event occurs, I'd like to know not just when it happened and on what device, but what activity was taking place on the machine at the time so that we can drill down. If we get a false positive, we have to do a lot of research and go back and forth with our end-users to know why it was a false positive. So, having a little more detail around detections and events would probably be my most asked feature."
