"The SIEM 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."
"We've had a lot of false positives; things incorrectly flagged that require manual configuration to allow. Even worse, after we allow a legitimate program, it sometimes gets flagged again after an update. This has caused a lot of extra work for my team."

"They've got all this training that's available, but it involves stuff that doesn't really encompass the solution as a whole."

"The price has increased marginally recently and I would prefer if they didn't raise rates."
"I like the Application Control feature, but it's a bit tricky. Managing it can be a bit cumbersome sometimes."
"There are compatibility concerns as Bitdefender does not support Windows 7."
"Overall, Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security is quite good. It always has new features which customers can use for free, so I can't say that something is missing in the solution, though one area for improvement is that the cloud version of Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security still can't connect to a central SIEM. The on-premises version has that capability, but the cloud version doesn't."
"One area for improvement in FortiClient is the speed of connectivity."
"While we like patch management, it would be nice if it could handle patch management for other solutions, like Microsoft."
"We would like Fortinet to add the function or the possibility to use all FortiClient features for free."
"The solution could be more secure. I would like to see more safety features."
"Fortinet FortiClient could improve the connection because sometimes it drops."
"Initially, the support was very poor. It is getting better, but they should continue to improve this."
"We do not use the solution every day and there are times when the new users have trouble reconnecting. The technology itself works but our users getting adopted to it is a major problem. Having the user adapt to the desktop landing page that it begins on is throwing them off a bit."
"The documentation could be improved."
