We performed a comparison between Check Point Harmony Endpoint and CylanceOPTICS based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."This is stable and scalable."
"The solution was relatively easy to deploy."
"Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR."
"Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration."
"Having all monitoring, response, tracking, and mitigation tools in one dashboard provides our analysts and SOC team with a comprehensive view at a glance."
"Fortinet FortiEDR made our clients feel secure and more at ease, knowing that they had an EDR solution that would close the gap in their security posture."
"The price is low and quite competitive with others."
"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."
"Deploying new versions of the endpoint are easy."
"The graphical interface is very easy to use and intuitive, which greatly facilitates the work and greatly facilitates the work and the location of threats on the users' computers."
"We're able to secure all endpoints and manage them from a single console."
"It has extended OS support to ensure your legacy endpoints also have zero-day protection."
"It is very powerful tooling that can be tuned a lot."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint has one of the most user-friendly dashboards I've seen."
"The communication with the console is very dynamic and remote, without the need to return to the computer locally."
"The remote support is good."
"It is a bit early in our evaluation process to give proper feedback, although so far, the overall feedback is good."
"It's pretty unintrusive"
"The initial setup was fairly straightforward. To get a large health care organization sorted, we had to create exemptions because some of the scripts and some of the automations were broken."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to respond to zero-day and unknown threats."
"Cylance is not a signature-based protection solution and instead works proactively using AI and ML models to patrol for malicious behavior."
"The solution has a high level of trust in the industry."
"CylanceOPTICS is easy to use."
"I would rate the stability a nine out of ten. I would give it a close ten as possible because, like SentinelOne, I've seen incompatibility. Whereas Cylance, I've seen none."
"To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced."
"The solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection."
"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."
"We find the solution to be a bit expensive."
"I think cloud security and SASE are areas of concern in the product where improvements are required. The tool's cloud version has to be improved in terms of the security it offers."
"We've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments."
"Detections could be improved."
"The SIEM could be improved."
"There should be some way of managing this solution outside the organization's network, possibly with some type of remote access. For example, if I'm the admin of Check Point who manages the entire network, I would like to have access on my home device or maybe a mobile app to get reports, etc."
"One area of this product that has room for improvement is the disc encryption."
"I would like to see them add features where we can use this license for mobile browsers, too."
"It needs to include built-in deployment. This will make the job easier rather than having to go and dig up an Active Directory deployment along with policy objects."
"Improvements are required in two key areas: notifications and setup simplification."
"Technical support needs to be improved, along with the response time."
"I have a few issues when attempting to install Harmony on some of the machines."
"We need a higher maximum file size in the sandboxing feature."
"One minor issue that somebody mentioned was that they didn't like their management console."
"The product's initial setup process could be easy."
"Our customers would like to see more automation with respect to how threats are handled once they have been detected."
"CylanceOPTICS could benefit from more granular control in the timeline-building process. Ideally, users would be able to drill deeper into the analysis rather than have the machine dictate the direction."
"The product's technical support is slow."
"The reporting is very weak and not very good at all."
"The detection component is something that they have to work on."
"The tools are ineffective. It flags a lot of things. To give you an example, it detected Google Chrome and blocked the user's access to it. That it mistook for malicious, which turned out to be a false positive."
