"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."
"Fortinet FortiEDR's firewalling, rule creation, monitoring, and inspection profiles are great."
"The most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure."
"We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats."
"The solution was relatively easy to deploy."
"The price is low and quite competitive with others."
"The product detects and blocks threats and is more proactive than firewalls."
"The potential threat protection feature is the most valuable. In the event that one of my computers is not on the network and gets a virus, ESET Endpoint Security quickly detects the malware, and in most cases, it removes the virus. It also has the ability to remotely shut down the computer. I like the remote control part the most."
"The most valuable features are the sandbox, mail scanning, sandboxing attachments, files, and that it responds to VPN porting."
"ESET Endpoint Security’s most valuable feature is the management console."
"This is a product at the top of its game. That is the reason we choose to support and sell it."
"The solution provides good accessibility and is not heavy on resources when there are updates or when it is in operation."
"The solution is easy to install and configure."
"It can scale as well."
"The administration is its most valuable feature as I can see all versions in one place."
"The most valuable feature is the web filter application control."
"It is stable, and the performance is good."
"I've found it's got excellent web protection."
"We have control over our devices, specifically USB ports, allowing us to block or control the traffic."
"It allows us to stop activation windows."
"It offers an easy initial setup."
"The interface is great."
"The patch management module is very important."
"The solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection."
"The support needs improvement."
"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."
"Everything with Fortinet having to do with their cloud services. They need to invest more in their internal infrastructure that they are running in the cloud. One of the things I find with their cloud environment compared to others' is that they go cheap on the equipment. So it causes some performance degradation."
"We find the solution to be a bit expensive."
"The security should be strong for the cloud. Some applications are on-prem and some are on the cloud. Fortinet should also have strong security for the cloud. There should be more security for the cloud."
"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."
"ZTNA can improve latency."
"The solution should offer more security surrounding blacklisted websites."
"I am a MAC user and my asset cybersecurity is continuously displaying warnings that I am not using their firewall."
"The use of SQL Server can be improved. At times, there is a bit of challenge while linking it with the Javascript. ESET Endpoint Security requires modern technology or modern equipment on site. You will find it difficult to use ESET Endpoint Security with dual-core machines. If they can add the cloud management feature to their product, it will be much easier. If you look at this COVID situation that we are in right now, people are working from home, so you need to control the computers wherever you are. For example, if you are using any email setup and you are hosting it on your own, all the email traffic will be going through the same network. You need to protect all of your computers from the attack. It is best if you can do it remotely rather than having an IT person to come onsite to manage all computers and metrics etc, which isn't a smart way to do it."
"The scalability could be better."
"I've had a few other instances where the program stops running, and then you have to restore and reset it."
"ESET Endpoint Antivirus can improve by having better EDR intelligence and automation. The EDR still needs lots of human interpretation. It can be better if add more intelligence to the EDR part of the endpoint protection."
"ESET's updates are mostly manual. That's my biggest concern. I'd like it to be more automatic. I've had to download the new version and run it manually to install it. I've got several workstations like that right now."
"Dual management for the customer, who needs to access the local on-premise console from a remote cloud-based console."
"Their MacOS support isn't that good."
"They need to expand their offering of add-ons to enhance capabilities further."
"Panda Security Adaptive Defense’s stability could be improved."
"Needs a better way to scan the hardware to detect whether it's valid."
"It would be nice if Panda Security Adaptive Defense could come out with remote desktop usage."
"Panda Security Adaptive Defense is stable. However, when updates are being done on the computers we can experience some troubles because the computers need to be restarted. When we start the computers they are not functioning correctly and we have not received proper feedback regarding this random issue."
"We do get the odd false positive when we're trying to install the software."
"They need to offer a clear dashboard so you can see everything everywhere all at once."
