We performed a comparison between CylancePROTECT and Webroot Business Endpoint Protection 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."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."
"The product detects and blocks threats and is more proactive than firewalls."
"The console is easy to read. I also like the scanning part and the ability to move assets from one to the other."
"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."
"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."
"The solution was relatively easy to deploy."
"It is stable and scalable."
"The setup is pretty simple."
"CylancePROTECT is very stable - we've had no issues with performance and no errors or bugs."
"The solution is pretty easy to scale."
"The most functional item that we use is the process to turn off the false flags that it causes."
"Specifically for a Windows domain environment, the product can be customized and pushed via GPO or SCCM without issue."
"In most cases, the solution's ability to detect in the MITRE framework, and its ability to be able to detect attacks in any one of seven or eight different areas of the life cycle of an attack is very useful."
"It is extremely simple to manage and deploy."
"The most valuable features are script blocking and macros within Word documents for stopping unwanted applications from running in the background."
"One of the best features of the solution is that it's easy to deploy."
"The Webroot cloud console is very powerful."
"Speed"
"Webroot's tech support is pretty good; they've given me some pointers."
"They have a lot of features integrated from way back, which shows that the product developers know exactly what they're doing."
"It is an easy-to-use and easy-to-configure product."
"It is excellent endpoint protection for mobiles that does everything it says it will."
"The solution has many features. It is very easy to define and set the policies based on the user groups, it does not take up a lot of resources in operation, and has provided us with a good track record of protection."
"We've not had any issues with scalability. If an organization needs to expand, they can do so quite easily."
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."
"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."
"I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components."
"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."
"ZTNA can improve latency."
"To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"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."
"The initial deployment was quite complicated."
"The AI of CylancePROTECT has room for improvement. I'm on a trial license of SentinelOne, and its AI is much better than what's on CylancePROTECT."
"Having worked with SentinelOne, Cylance is good, however, it probably needs to add a feature similar to SentinelOne's rollback functionality. With this feature, if you get infected, with a click, you can go back to the pre-infection state. If Cylance could add this functionality to their offering as well, that would be ideal."
"It needs real analysis of quarantined files. The EDR product isn't showing much right now."
"Reporting is an area with shortcomings in CylancePROTECT that needs to be improved."
"The solution needs better dashboards that are easier to use."
"While you are working, you are finding these things that were supposed to be waived have come back to being blocked. That's frustrating."
"The user interface is outdated."
"Reporting system could be improved."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection needs to focus on how they can widen their area of scope by not just being an antivirus tool anymore. The shortcoming in the customization area of the tool needs improvement."
"Its detection capability for certain attacks should be improved. It should have better and wider detection for certain malware attacks. It could also have some sort of RMN."
"Unified threat management (UTM) integration."
"Technical support is not the best. It's hard to get a hold of them if we need help. It's something that definitely needs improvement."
"We need to know more details about how the virus interacted with the computer."
"An updated UI would be nice, but is not hardly used."
"There needs to be more advanced analytics. It would make it a more powerful antivirus solution within the marketplace."
