"Additionally, when it comes to EDR, there are more tools available to assist with client work."
"It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of Fortinet FortiEDR was straightforward."
"It is stable and scalable."
"The console is easy to read. I also like the scanning part and the ability to move assets from one to the other."
"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 stability is very good."
"NGAV and EDR features are outstanding."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten...I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."
"Foothold detection is a valuable feature, acting as a valuable second set of eyes for both us and our clients."
"Huntress' best feature is the threat-hunting expertise that is part of their 24/7 SOC."
"Huntress helps by highlighting potential issues, allowing us to take proactive measures."
"I have found it valuable that this solution is always there and always armed."
"It is incredibly efficient for our engineering team because Huntress provides all the information needed to fix issues, not just flag them."
"It catches things that no one else catches. We occasionally have things slip through antivirus and other things, but Huntress catches them. It is awesome as an additional layer of defense on top of other things."
"We don’t have the required staff to watch the issues that are happening. It is good to have a team from Huntress who can watch the logs 24/7. The tool’s automatic remediation is also fantastic. The solution’s interface is also nice and easy to use. The Huntress team saves us time by going through the issues."
"It's a good antivirus software and has a lot of features. It now integrates with their on-premises firewall, which is perfect."
"I am impressed with the tool's common dashboard feature. The solution is also easy to deploy and manage. Reporting is also easy with the software."
"One of the best use cases involves synchronized security staff, which allows us to manage both the firewall and the anti-virus features from the cloud."
"This solution offers very good performance and it has great features."
"I appreciate the ability to use the latest endpoint protection features in case of an infection or cyber threat. This is especially true when using the product with a Sophos firewall solution, like the XG series. They collaborate effectively in the event of a cyber threat."
"The most valuable feature is the anti-ransomware capability. It's been helpful because we have been seeing a lot of information around what the ransomware hit."
"Sophos Intercept X has a host of valuable features, including its anti-malware feature, which we considered key."
"The client isolation feature is a very effective feature."
"We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels."
"ZTNA can improve latency."
"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."
"The solution is not stable."
"To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced."
"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."
"FortiEDR can be improved by providing more detailed reporting."
"The solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection."
"The solution's UI is an area with certain shortcomings that need improvement."
"The application control system could benefit from improvements in identifying and managing both whitelisted and blacklisted applications."
"I'd like Huntress to implement a component that can analyze network traffic for specific sites."
"Their EDR can have increased coverage for Macintosh. They do not fully secure Macintosh computers."
"One area for improvement in Huntress would be to allow for PSA integration from a specific IP address or hostname for better security measures."
"I would like the API to be a little better. They are getting there."
"Some of Huntress' reporting could be improved."
"We need an API to automatically retrieve metrics and data about backend activity so we can generate client reports."
"The initial setup was not very user-friendly."
"We would like more application control in order to be able to schedule times and access."
"It would be a value-add if they can include integration with other technologies or solutions, like Fortinet, Blue Coat, etc."
"They should keep doing what they're doing. Both of them have entered the EDR/MDR space, and they're keeping up with their competitors. I have a hard time understanding why their capabilities aren't garnering more attention."
"The product defends very well on its own but could possibly use enhancement in giving users more controls."
"Technical support can be improved. There could be shared support, i.e. where someone in Egypt can respond."
"There is some issue with the reporting and refreshing information on resources that have been eliminated."
"The performance offered by the product needs improvement."
