We performed a comparison between CylancePROTECT and NetWitness XDR based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Endpoint Protection Platform (EPP) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration."
"The setup is pretty simple."
"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."
"It is stable and scalable."
"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"
"Fortinet FortiEDR's firewalling, rule creation, monitoring, and inspection profiles are great."
"The most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure."
"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."
"On the management side, we liked the way it displays things."
"I rate the tool a ten out of ten when it comes to the ease of use or management part."
"It actively monitors the behavior and activity of processes and will, without hesitation, terminate at root anything it determines to be suspect."
"Endpoints are protected in real-time without the need of a centralized server."
"You can manage all the threats and everything from a centralized dashboard."
"What's most valuable in CylancePROTECT is the optics feature. I also like its easy-to-use and user-friendly dashboard and monitoring system."
"Has good RAM capacity for the power I need"
"Specifically for a Windows domain environment, the product can be customized and pushed via GPO or SCCM without issue."
"The log correlation is good."
"It is stable. We have been using it for some time, without any issues."
"Ability to isolate the machine when there are malicious files."
"We've contacted technical support several times. They've been very good. They have been able to help us resolve our issues."
"The interface of this solution is very flexible and easy to use."
"Technical support is knowledgeable."
"The stability of the RSA NetWitness Endpoint is very good."
"RSA NetWitness does market analysis in a more granular form. It gives you full visibility."
"The support needs improvement."
"The solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced."
"The solution is not stable."
"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."
"We've had a lot of false positives; things incorrectly flagged that require manual configuration to allow. Even worse, after we allow a legitimate program, it sometimes gets flagged again after an update. This has caused a lot of extra work for my team."
"It needs real analysis of quarantined files. The EDR product isn't showing much right now."
"It should provide more details about the events that they have detected."
"I would say one thing that they might need to bring in is protection for mobile devices."
"If they can add more features on top of their Persona feature that would be ideal."
"It is hard to manage."
"CylancePROTECT's dashboard could be more user-friendly."
"The OPTICS component could be made more user-friendly with respect to giving people more information."
"The initial deployment was quite complicated."
"I would like to see Security Orchestration and Response Automation (SOAR) integration."
"When analyzing something, you have to click several times. It requires a lot of effort to find something."
"Its price could be improved. It is an expensive product. Its training is also too expensive. It would be great if they can have a better pricing scheme for the training."
"This solution needs an upgrade in reporting. I have heard from RSA that they are working on this, but as of yet it is not available."
"The initial setup requires a high level of skill."
"The solution lacks a reporting engine."
"The integration of the solution needs to be improved. The dashboard needs lots of updates as well. In the next release, we would like to see advanced fraud detection features."
"The solution is modular, for example you can buy the RSA ePack, which you buy as a module is not part of the conduit solution. They could include it and have it as an all-in-one solution."
