Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Fortinet FortiEDR's firewalling, rule creation, monitoring, and inspection profiles are great.""The stability is very good.""Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration.""The product's initial setup phase is very easy.""We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats.""Fortinet has helped free up around 20 percent of our staff's time to help us out.""Fortinet FortiEDR's scalability is quite good, and you can add licenses to the solution.""Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance."

More Fortinet FortiEDR Pros →

"The ease of deployment and the command center that they have are the most valuable. It is basically self-monitoring. It doesn't require that much tinkering after you deploy or install.""The performance is good compared to other products that slow down the laptop, post-installation.""The solution can scale well.""Avast as a product is as easy as it gets - everything is outlined and transparent in terms of licensing.""It warns you if there is a threat and it's perfect because it runs in the background and doesn't interfere with anything.""Our favorite feature is the PC Patch Management.""The solution is easy to use.""It's straightforward to set up."

More Avast Business Hub Pros →

"Tanium’s linear-chain architecture is valuable.""Tanium's most valuable features are patch management, inventory, and distribution software.""The solution is scalable and helps to understand how infrastructure works. It helps to improve the health of the organization.""I'm not so familiar with the tool but I like the interaction of the console to the picture. Patching is the primary model I have been focusing on for the last couple of weeks. So I have created a proof of concept environment and have been checking the available features.""The interrogation piece was the most valuable feature because it was very detailed.""I like the fact that you can create patching campaigns depending on the area of your network that you want to address first. I like the ability it has to make several campaigns that work in parallel.""Threat hunting is a very good feature on Tanium. We have just started using it and have not used it extensively.""The most valuable features of this solution are the consolidation of all historical data on device endpoints, security drivers, firmware, and Software version gaps."

More Tanium Pros →

Cons
"The only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs.""It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations.""ZTNA can improve latency.""To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced.""I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components.""Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR.""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.""We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels."

More Fortinet FortiEDR Cons →

"I would like to see better protection and more spyware included with the free version.""It reduces network and bandwidth speed.""It could have a 10,000-feet overview of the whole infrastructure because the software is easily installable on the whole infrastructure and not just the infrastructure, but also the workstation themselves. I would love to have a 360 view of the whole network and basically see from where a test is coming, and if there is an instance in the cloud that is actually misbehaving or if there is a workstation that is infected and stuff like that. It can also have some kind of AI to detect all those things and then cut off the connection from that machine. In Cortex, you can link the logs, reports, and all that stuff. You can also see the full picture of when it happened, and you can trace it back all the way to a file or something else. I would like to see similar functionality in Avast Business Endpoint Protection.""Avast Business Endpoint Protection would be improved with more frequent updates.""Where I have faced a challenge is on the reporting. I would like to see something that provides information regarding the next month or quarter, in terms of reporting.""The solution needs to be more secure and work to protect us better from people trying to mess with our systems.""The solution could improve by providing more security.""The accuracy of the scanner could be improved."

More Avast Business Hub Cons →

"The main issues are the network connection because different customers have issues with their networks. It's difficult implementing this type of solution because the network is the main feature in the architecture for these types of solutions. Tanium could improve by creating some network optimization.""The solution can give a lot of false positives.""The reporting could be improved.""I would like to have more integrations and custom plugins to input. Integration is always a big deal in a lot of different environments.""The most painful thing is the interface. It's a bit unclear sometimes.""The solution lacks mobility.""Tanium's limitations should be improved because although it is a great tool, it is limited to only a few classes during a session.""The solution needs to improve the reporting and tracking capabilities."

    Reviews from Real Users

    Below are some reviews and helpful feedback written by Fortinet FortiEDR users.

    An Owner at a security firm says, "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 customer has literally about 800 cash registers. That was the use case for Fortinet FortiEDR - to get that down into a tiny space. The only way to do that was to use this product because it had that ability to unbundle services that were a surplus.”

    Chandan M., Chief Technical Officer at Provision Technologies LLP, mentions, “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.” He also adds, “The security is also very good and the firewall response is good.”

    Harpreet S., Information Technology Support Specialist at Chemtrade Logistics, explains, "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."

    DeAndre V., Senior Network Administrator at a financial services firm, states, “The dashboard is easy to follow and use. The deployment and uninstalling were easy. I like the detailed information about the path of a file that might be suspicious. Being able to check that out was easy to follow. Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance.
