"The solution is very useful and easy to handle. You don't need much intervention with this product."

"To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced."

"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."
"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."
"The SIEM could be improved."
"The solution is not stable."
"I would like to see better protection and more spyware included with the free version."
"The solution could improve by providing more security."

"It could download faster during deployment."
"It should have proper and timely updates to deal with new viruses as they come onto the market."
"The accuracy of the scanner could be improved."
"The directions for Splunk are spot on, but it is difficult to find anything on integration with AlienVault,"
"Occasionally, we'll have issues with the latest version and they'll basically tell us that they will improve it in the next iteration. They need to work on their version release quality."
"The GUI and reporting should be addressed and the product's administration features need fine tuning."
"Needs improvement in the area of infrastructure for on-premise installation."
"There's some disparity between the on-premise and the cloud type of application."
"The pricing could be more reasonable."
"What was rolled out to my company are mixed versions of Carbon Black CB Defense, so what I'd like to see in the next release is more synchronization, where it can detect the endpoint that's running an old version and suggest updates."
"Carbon Black needs to do a better job of proving their platform in the industry, and providing a bit more access to do industry testing with real world examples to help prove their platform."
