Pros
"Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance.""The stability is very good.""NGAV and EDR features are outstanding.""It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of Fortinet FortiEDR was straightforward.""The setup is pretty simple.""Fortinet has helped free up around 20 percent of our staff's time to help us out.""he solution is an anti-malware product that integrates well with other vendor products such as firewalls, SIEM, etc. It captures threat intelligence and gives you better visibility. The product also has sandboxing features.""The price is low and quite competitive with others."

More Fortinet FortiEDR Pros →

"Containment is the best feature of the solution.""It really protects and does its job. It totally blocked every attack attempt, and no attack attempt was successful.""The most valuable feature is the management of end-user machines.""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.""The big advantage is that it has a sandbox if something bad comes into it.""Auto Containment is a valuable feature.""The tool is an open-source EDR with antivirus features. It also has remote support and patch management.""It's stable and reliable."

More Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection Pros →

"Its threat-hunting capabilities and the information about the known threats are the most available features. It can easily catch any threat in our environment.""Its database is better than most of the endpoint protection solutions.""I like Apex Central. We can manage all the Trend Micro products from one console.""The most valuable features are web application features and real-time scans.""The solution offers quick and timely updates.""I'm using the cloud solution, which I really like. I like being able to update policies on the cloud so that when users who are working from home connect to the internet, their laptops will be updated automatically. I also like that this solution is easy to use and is stable and scalable""It's easier to integrate Apex One than Kaspersky. It also performs well, and the customer feedback has been positive.""The initial setup is not that tough. It's easy."

Cons
"I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components.""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.""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.""ZTNA can improve latency.""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've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments.""I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."

More Fortinet FortiEDR Cons →

"The quality of the analysis and the product dashboard is a bit low compared to other providers.""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.""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.""Their support is not very good because they are very late to reply.""The licensing fees are high. The company should work to try to lower them for the customer.""The menu could be cleaned up.""The product must provide a web filter to block websites based on specific categories.""There could be MDRM features added to the product."

More Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection Cons →

"I would like to see better reporting.""Sometimes it will not communicate with the server, and we need to manually restart items.""I am expecting an Apple featured IDLP solution with OfficeScan, where we have only IDLP. Also, the ADR functionality in our Office Scan solution would be a nice addition. Genrally, the ADR solutions are the only failed ends of the solutions we have found with Trend Micro.""It has good signature-based capabilities, but features like “shape detection” can be improved upon.""Whether the license is monthly or annual depends on the deal of the company.""We do not have much control as we have to work with regional policies and regional support.""I would suggest making the on-prem and cloud versions easier to manage via Apex One Central, a centralized management platform for customers and agents.""The scans in Trend Micro Apex One take a very long time and it takes up my system resources. I do not receive alerts. These areas could improve."

    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.

    Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection (AEP) delivers patent-pending auto-containment, where unknown executables and other files that request runtime privileges are automatically run in a virtual contain that does not have access to the host system's resources or user data.

    The Security Agents respond directly to the server to which they were installed. They report event data such as threat detection, Security Agent activity (startup and shutdown), when a scan begins, when a scan ends, and update progress to the server in real time.

    An organization’s designated IT administrators can control Security Agent settings from the server and are empowered to grant users the privilege to configure specific settings.

    Trend Micro Apex One™ uses a host-based prevention system (HIPS). HIPS will create a virtual patch for unknown and known threats prior to the time when the appropriate patch is available or deployable. This will expand protection to important platforms and virtual or physical devices while minimizing the time needed for an emergency patch event and preventing downtime. UsingTrend Micro Apex One™, users receive next-gen XDR robust features to improve detection, response, and investigation proficiencies.

    Reviews from Real Users

    Pawel B., Head of IT Department at a maritime company, tells us that "Trend Micro Apex One is good at detecting zero-day threats. When the solution was in operation I did not notice any system performance problems. Upgrades of the solution were simple to do and there are plenty of features."

    An IT Administrator at a manufacturing company says, "One of the better features, in my opinion, is that it also makes use of a web reputation. For example, if someone accidentally clicks on a link in an email that leads to a malicious website, they will block it."

    A Network Specialist at a computer software company concludes that Trend Micro Apex One is “Quick to install and stable threat protection software.”
