We performed a comparison between CrowdStrike Falcon and Webroot Business Endpoint Protection 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."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."
"Additionally, when it comes to EDR, there are more tools available to assist with client work."
"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."
"The most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure."
"Fortinet is very user-friendly for customers."
"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."
"This is stable and scalable."
"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."
"Scalability is good. We have had no issues with it."
"Scalability hasn't been an issue for us."
"The managed services are distinguished, responsive, dynamic, flexible, and assertive when taking action."
"It has an extremely low footprint, so it has got minimum impact on the user end points in terms of CPU and memory usage."
"There are two things which customers really like about CrowdStrike. If they buy managed services from CrowdStrike, it offers them detection of security issues in one minute. If you buy their professional services, they offer insurance where you can claim up to $5 million if there's a breach. This is a huge upsell for customers."
"The most valuable aspects of CrowdStrike Falcon for me are its device observability, identification, and software and OS recognition."
"CrowdStrike Falcon's most valuable feature is the fact that it's not getting in the way of our workforce and their workflow."
"The features I like the most are the response time and the dashboard are both excellent."
"The most valuable features of the solution include the endpoint navigation protection, the protection related to the EMS service, as well as the control and the cloud integration capabilities."
"I rate the initial setup phase a ten on a scale of one to ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy."
"Speed"
"It is very light. It is the only solution that can be installed on a machine that already has an antivirus. It is a pretty complete solution."
"I haven't observed any of the instabilities in the solution. It is a stable solution."
"Probably, compared to other antivirus programs, what we like about it is it is lightweight."
"The solution has many features. It is very easy to define and set the policies based on the user groups, it does not take up a lot of resources in operation, and has provided us with a good track record of protection."
"The Webroot cloud console is very powerful."
"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."
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels."
"It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations."
"Intelligence aspects need improvement"
"The SIEM could be improved."
"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"
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."
"We can do a threat analysis of any machine at any time, but that threat analysis is very limited."
"The Integration with tools, SOC tools, could be better."
"We sometimes get false positives."
"They need to strengthen the forensic capabilities of this product, for e-discovery."
"CrowdStrike Falcon could improve by adding manual scanning or serverless scanning. It is not available at this time."
"CrowdStrike Falcon could improve the logs by making them free to the API."
"The skillsets needed to run CrowdStrike Falcon are extensive if you want to get the most value out of the tool."
"I think there's an opportunity to enhance the AI or at least the traps to say, if something changes from this baseline, let us know and flag it."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection needs to focus on how they can widen their area of scope by not just being an antivirus tool anymore. The shortcoming in the customization area of the tool needs improvement."
"The solution could improve by providing better ransomware protection."
"We need to have a stronger defense against CryptoLock and other attackers."
"I believe that Webroot Business Endpoint Protection should offer a more modern UI."
"One of the biggest pain points is that it's not really ransomware-oriented. They will be able to catch some, but that's where Sentinel One is a better player compared to Webroot."
"There should be a Webroot Business Endpoint Protection mobile app."
"Unified threat management (UTM) integration."
"It would be nice if it had a feature for automatically generating reports on the client end for device status, security status and backup information."
