We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Containment is the best feature of the solution.""The most valuable feature is the management of end-user machines.""It really protects and does its job. It totally blocked every attack attempt, and no attack attempt was successful.""If you open up an application or a web browser, it puts a container in a sandbox area. So if there's some malicious code, it'll stick there. It also has way better protection for ransomware because it uses heuristics that are pretty effective. We've done a lot of tests with live malware, and it works really well.""They offer the whole package. Remote monitoring and management (RMM) is included with it, which is pretty nice. They also have Windows patching and third-party patching. It was easy to use for protection. The containment engine was pretty nice for securing our environment.""The tool is an open-source EDR with antivirus features. It also has remote support and patch management.""The big advantage is that it has a sandbox if something bad comes into it.""It's stable and reliable."

"Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration.""I like FortiClient EMS. FortiEDR has a lot of great features like lockdown mode, remote wipes, and encryption. I can set malware outbreak policies and controls for detecting abnormalities. You can also simulate phishing attacks.""Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance.""It is stable and scalable.""The most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure.""The product detects and blocks threats and is more proactive than firewalls.""NGAV and EDR features are outstanding.""Fortinet has helped free up around 20 percent of our staff's time to help us out."

Cons
"There are a few minor issues such as package updates and passwords.""The quality of the analysis and the product dashboard is a bit low compared to other providers.""The downside of the product stems from the fact that it is still an unknown product in the market. Comodo needs to invest more in advertisements and promotions.""Their support is not very good because they are very late to reply.""They need to just modernize the infrastructure with something that is next-generation. We have recently moved to SentinelOne. It had been doing good for us for a while, but we needed something modern with new technology.""The solution's online documentation needs to be fine-tuned. It is not up to which solution currently has. There is some inconsistency in the knowledge present. I would like to see MDM in the solution's future releases.""The licensing fees are high. The company should work to try to lower them for the customer.""The menu could be cleaned up."

More Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection Cons →

"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution.""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 support needs improvement.""We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels.""We find the solution to be a bit expensive.""The EDR console should have more extensive reporting. You shouldn't need to purchase FortiAnalyzer. It should be included in the EDR part. The security adviser cloud platform could be improved with more options for exclusive or intensive rules for devices.""The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage.""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."

    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.
