"This is stable and scalable."
"Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR."

"Fortinet is very user-friendly for customers."
"The main thing is that I feel safe. Because the processes that have been used to get a handle on the attackers are much better than other competitors"

"Some of the valuable features I have found are the online documentation of the solution is well organized and thorough. I like the simplicity of bypass and the visualization of the active components."
"The whole purpose of the product, like application control, is very good, and also if you need to update some policies, it works well and instantly."
"It is a stable solution...The initial setup of VMware Carbon Black Endpoint was easy."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"It is stable and easy to set up."
"Carbon Black Cb Defense improved our endpoint level security. It helped to identify endpoint and infrastructure loopholes."
"You can deploy it through the cloud so that even if your stuff is outside of your controlled environment, you are still under control, based on the policies you create. The policies are controlled through the cloud. For example, if I don't allow anyone to do a certain activity or to install a particular app, and a consultant or a partner who is not part of our environment is doing so, it will stop them as well."
"This antivirus is regularly updated, and the updates can be scheduled."

"The solution really focused on giving more security than an antivirus."
"It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations."
"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."
"Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."
"ZTNA can improve latency."
"Detections could be improved."
"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."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"Sensor deployment requires extensive fine-tuning, and creating deployment packages is time-consuming."
"The device control feature could also be compatible with the user’s profile as well."
"The endpoint machines need improvement."
"The local technical support is very poor, but the support from headquarters is very nice."
"The product's reporting capabilities are an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The EDR portion could be better. I'm not a big fan, but it works."
"The solution needs expanded endpoint query tools."
"I am not sure whether Carbon Black CB Defense can be considered as a stable solution or not."
"We'd like better performance of the network equipment. There are high-speed environments where an immediate response is required."
"Currently, the client is only available for the Windows Operating System but it would be good if it were released for Mac OS as well."
"I would like it to be integrated with the Check Point centralization solution like Infinity Portal. It would be great to be able to manage it through the same website."
"They should release a single update with all the necessary characteristics to avoid being in a cycle of consecutive updates."
"The support is not always so effective."
"Some of our users say that the interface is a little bit outdated for 2020, and want it to be more modern and cozy."
"ZoneAlarm should be a light application that does not take too much memory in mobile phones."
"They need to update and improve the features available for Mac."
