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."
"It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of Fortinet FortiEDR was straightforward."
"Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance."
"The price is low and quite competitive with others."
"Fortinet FortiEDR's scalability is quite good, and you can add licenses to the solution."
"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"
"The product detects and blocks threats and is more proactive than firewalls."
"It is very easy to set up. I would rate my experience with the initial setup a ten out of ten, with ten being very easy to set up."
"The non-daily requirement to update signatures is the most valuable feature. From a functional point of view, it is pretty spot on. For instance, we compared an algorithm from five years ago to today's algorithm, and it was 98% accurate. It has the ability to detect and mitigate. In the industrial environment that we work in, there's what we call OT versus IT. You are IT Central, but this is OT. Generally, we don't have the same level of skillset as IT individuals or IT professionals have. This particular product doesn't require you to be a computer scientist to be able to understand its proprietary algorithm and to be able to deploy, use, and work within it. It integrates well with a robust SIEM or SOAR solution, and it plays nice with others. We use other detection solutions like CyberX or site provision with Cisco, and it plays nice. That's one of the things we really liked about it."
"It provides good insight into the programs, applications, or websites that may need attention."
"What's most valuable in CylancePROTECT is the optics feature. I also like its easy-to-use and user-friendly dashboard and monitoring system."
"Very easy to deploy. It can be done one by one or deployed by customizing an MSI file for GPO push."
"The solution is stable."
"The solution is pretty easy to scale."
"The solution’s AI is its most valuable feature."
"The deployment of updates is easy."
"It seems to be more scalable than we thought."
"The technical support from Fortinet and local vendors is good."
"I use the tool to connect server to an ISP Data Center."
"This is a solid and stable solution."
"From an application perspective, this solution is stable."
"It is very powerful."
"The most valuable feature of Fortinet FortiClient is its performance."
"It's very stable."
"We've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments."
"FortiEDR can be improved by providing more detailed reporting."
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced."
"Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office."
"The SIEM could be improved."
"The only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs."
"We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels."
"We would like to see secure integration and multi-factor authentication to be able to access the administration dashboard."
"I would like to see a better UI in terms of sifting through more specific data and providing analytics. A little bit more would be nice."
"CylancePROTECT could be improved in its technical support and communication."
"An area for improvement in CylancePROTECT is its pricing, as it's a bit costly."
"I would like to see them fix the alerting system so that the endpoint reporting is a bit more streamlined."
"If they can add more features on top of their Persona feature that would be ideal."
"CylancePROTECT's dashboard could be more user-friendly."
"It needs real analysis of quarantined files. The EDR product isn't showing much right now."
"For buying or deploying it with additional features, apart from VPN client, web security, or antivirus, I would like to see the USB key blocking function included in this solution for endpoint security. For endpoint security, you need antivirus and all of the features included in antivirus software these days, web security, and USB key locking feature. If it is implemented in a way that in one package, you have all the primary features needed for security these days, it would be nice. All of those features will probably be additionally charged as it is a web security feature on FortiClient."
"Fortinet FortiClient could improve the connection because sometimes it drops."
"The memory check needs to be improved, giving better visibility into the run-time memory."
"There is room for improvement by increasing the solution's knowledge base."
"The features of Fortinet FortiClient could be improved."
"As far as I can tell, the solution only has one single function, so they could expand its functionality."
"It would be extremely useful to have an automatic updating feature."
"Technical support is awful. Their online response time is not prompt. They should not respond after four or five days. Their support guys are not competent enough. Small issues are taking time."
