Pros
"Additionally, when it comes to EDR, there are more tools available to assist with client work.""Fortinet FortiEDR's scalability is quite good, and you can add licenses to the solution.""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 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""Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR.""Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration.""Fortinet has helped free up around 20 percent of our staff's time to help us out.""We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats."

"They do a very good job of providing multi-stage visualizations of malicious operations that immediately show all attack details across all devices and users. Since it is MalOp-centric model, you can see if there has been a similar operation across multiple machines. If it is the same thing appearing on multiple machines, you see all the machines and users affected in one screen.""What I like most about Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response is the support because the support is good. The solution is also easy to use, and it has a dashboard. Everything is good, and there's no problem with it.""Cybereason's threat hunting and investigation are the most valuable features. Threat hunting is a user-friendly feature that keeps you safe. Investigation offers an added value that I haven't seen with other EDR services. It allows you to find specific policy problems within your environment.""It gives all the information in a clear response.""The dashboard is very good and you can consider it as an interactive UI.""The initial setup is not overly complicated.""The solution is efficient.""The most valuable feature is the capability of the command used by the machine so that we see the kind of performance that is running."

More Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response Pros →

"Both incoming and outgoing traffic is protected.""We use the product for detecting network vulnerabilities and for software update purposes.""F-Secure is useful for keeping user machines up-to-date by pushing out security and critical updates.""The notifications and patch management features are valuable.""On the cloud management page, the solution scales up very highly.""The most valuable features of WithSecure Elements Endpoint Protection are the clear useful portal and overall company protection.""There is a layer of security to prevent a malicious agent (malware) from interrupting or stopping services, deleting or modifying registry entries or even stopping the antivirus from acting, ensuring that there will be no interruption of protection."

More WithSecure Elements Endpoint Protection Pros →

Cons
"Detections could be improved.""I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components.""It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations.""Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office.""We find the solution to be a bit expensive.""The only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs.""Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR.""The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."

More Fortinet FortiEDR Cons →

"The deployment on individual endpoints is more geared toward larger organizations. It might prove to be a bit too complicated for a smaller organization. You need to know what you're doing when you're deploying the sensor.""Ad hoc higher-level reporting to senior management can be improved or can be implemented. That's definitely an area of improvement that they need to focus on.""They need to improve their technical support services.""While the product is very good, there are still some areas for improvement. The initial triage area could be a bit simpler. They get into the weeds real fast; it gets very detailed very fast. I am still looking for an easier triage layer on top with the ability to dig deeper.""Its Microsoft PowerShell protections still need some compatibility improvements. We have run across just a few. It is compatible with 90% of what we have in our network, but there is that 10% that we are still struggling with as far as compatibility with the type of PowerShell scripts needed to run our day-to-day business.""It should be more stable, and the sensor needs improvement in terms of connectivity.""What needs to improve in Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response and what I'd like to see in its next release is a centralized dashboard that allows you to view what is there, similar to what's on Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager: a beautiful display and reporting. Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response has to start with the compliance, the homepage, etc. Everything should be there and should be customizable. The options should be there. The tool is very good currently, but visibility for IT administrators is lacking and needs to be worked on.""The product's reporting isn't great."

More Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response Cons →

"There could be a dedicated security partner with essential knowledge.""But the biggest one for us is patch management because this has been our top priority when looking at alternatives. Every solution needs to have patch management, if that's possible. It would cut costs on our side if that feature were included, so we don't need to pay for two separate pieces of software.""Resource consumption is suboptimal and could be improved.""The solution could improve by having more real-time responses. For example, when a license gets removed from a computer it does not update the records of the change. Additionally, when I installed Microsoft Windows Defender I was not able to send licenses through email to our tenants. The integration with other solutions could improve.""The program and cloud service management is in English. It's not a problem for me, however, it might be for users who don't speak English or use it regularly.""I would like the part of Hash Analysis by external sources to be improved.""There is no technical support available in the Middle East."

    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.
