We performed a comparison between Check Point Harmony Endpoint and Elastic Security based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats."
"The setup is pretty simple."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"Additionally, when it comes to EDR, there are more tools available to assist with client work."
"NGAV and EDR features are outstanding."
"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."
"The most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure."
"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."
"Its stability during any heavy performance activity 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."
"The most valuable feature is forensics."
"One of the strengths of Harmony is its power to detect threats and keep us safe."
"It monitors data flow across the networking system to enhance comprehensive workflow infrastructure."
"This software incorporates security AI features and effectively manages bandwidth with its DRS capabilities."
"The most valuable feature is the integration with CheckPoint's firewalls. You can have one port, and follow the logs from both Endpoint and firewall security."
"The communication with the console is very dynamic and remote, without the need to return to the computer locally."
"The solution is quite stable. The performance has been good."
"Elastic Security is very easy to adapt."
"The scalability is good. It can be scaled easily in the production environment."
"It is scalable."
"Elastic Security is a highly flexible platform that can be implemented anywhere."
"The most valuable feature for me is Discover."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to collect authentication information from service providers."
"The most valuable feature is the scalability. We are in Indonesia, more engineers understand Elastic Security here. So it is easier to scale and also develop. In features, the discovery to query all the logs is very important to us. It is very easy, especially with the query function and the feature to generate alerts and create tools. Sometimes we use the alert security dashboard to monitor our clients."
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."
"To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced."
"We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels."
"I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components."
"The solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"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 solution needs more alerts to warn of attacks."
"Its customer support services and user interface could be improved."
"The application control and URL filtering features are not very strong."
"We cannot integrate this product with other solutions, which is something that should be improved."
"We would like to have the ability to stop and restart the service remotely, which is something that we can do easily with Symantec but have a hard time with when using Check Point."
"The solution can be made lightweight in order to keep the systems more effective during the background operations of the scanning and security checks."
"They need to make the user interface on the server more intuitive and user-friendly."
"The software requires considerable resources and can strain less powerful computers."
"It could use maybe a little more on the Linux side."
"The solution could also use better dashboards. They need to be more graphical, more matrix-like."
"If you compare this with CrowdStrike or Carbon Black, they can improve."
"Email notification should be done the same way as Logentries does it."
"Better integration with third-party APMs would be really good."
"Elastic Security has a steep learning curve, so it takes some time to tune it and set it up for your environment. There are some costs associated with logging things that don't have value. So you need to be cautious to only log things that make sense and keep them around for as long as you need. You shouldn't hold onto things just because you think you might need them."
"I would like the process of retrieving archived data and viewing it in Kibana to be simplified."
"With Elastic, you have to build the use cases for the specific requirement. Other products have a simple integration and more use cases to integrate out-of-the-box solutions for SIEM."
