"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"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 solution was relatively easy to deploy."
"The console is easy to read. I also like the scanning part and the ability to move assets from one to the other."
"NGAV and EDR features are outstanding."
"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."
"This is stable and scalable."
"It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of Fortinet FortiEDR was straightforward."
"Two or three years ago when the WannaCry virus struck, the people that were on Cylance were the ones that weren't affected."
"Endpoints are protected in real-time without the need of a centralized server."
"I've found the AI engine in CylancePROTECT to be particularly effective for technology and in preventing unknown threats."
"It handles situations that the other threat management tools wouldn't find. It has worked well covering the weaker sides of the other products that we're integrating."
"What's most valuable in CylancePROTECT is the optics feature. I also like its easy-to-use and user-friendly dashboard and monitoring system."
"What I like best about CylancePROTECT is its accuracy, as it doesn't give many false positives."
"The solution is stable."
"It is extremely simple to manage and deploy."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business's most valuable feature is the ease of management."
"Setting up Kaspersky is easy, but it requires two or three core members from our team, including admins and managers if necessary. And that is because of the administration that I mentioned."
"The solution has been quite stable."
"Easy to deploy, easy to use, and has a good detection rate."
"When comparing Kaspersky Endpoint Security to any other solution, Our customers like mostly the reliability, and the ability to defend against viruses, worms, and attacks. It is easy to use and very light on the end-user machine's resources."
"The solution has been quite stable. The performance is good."
"The most valuable features for us include data security, as well as web browsing and password management security measures."
"The main feature of this solution is it is easy to use."
"The solution is not stable."
"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 solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection."
"The only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs."
"They can include the automation for the realtime updates. We have a network infrastructure with remote sites. Whenever they send updates, they are not automated. We have to go into the console and push those updates. I wish it was more automated. The update file is currently around 31 MB. It could be smaller."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."
"I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components."
"I'd like them to do software distribution too, but they said that that's architecturally not at the product line."
"It could have integration with industrial base HMIS or Human Machine Interfaces Solutions. This is the industrial environment where you have a control center for all the automation that's happening, whether it is oil, gas, or chemical manufacturing. They often have to set up a computer at the back and watch the other stuff to get alerts. In these autonomous or on-premises environments, they often don't have access to email readily. Integration with other industrial solutions, such as HMIS, will allow them to communicate and get an alert that something has been found. This way, they can react to it sooner than having somebody watch the screen and keep checking the screen. Rockwell has its own suite. Similarly, Honeywell has its own suite. There's also an independent HMI/historian solution provider out there called VTSCADA. We actually get asked if we can get it to show up on a screen, which is difficult. Getting those alerts to work within an industrial environment would be a huge plus."
"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."
"The management console needs a little maturity in how it presents data and allows the administrator to drill down or search across systems."
"The OPTICS component could be made more user-friendly with respect to giving people more information."
"It should provide more details about the events that they have detected."
"The product must make the interface a little more user-friendly."
"It is hard to manage."
"When I do a malware scan on my computer it takes a long while. This process could improve in the future. Additionally, the security could improve."
"There are some features built into Kaspersky that do not work at all, so we have to use other products instead."
"There are times when Microsoft Windows's antivirus called Defender interferes with the functionality of Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business. There should be better integration with Windows."
"They can improve the zero-day exploit to be more effective."
"The reporting portion of the solution is quite weak."
"Areas for improvement include signature update management and selecting the respective features on the endpoint side."
"I would like to have more forensic features. For example, if we are hit by an attack, I would like to have tools to investigate what kind of attack, who has attacked, how it was attacked, and what we could do to stop this kind of attack in the future. I would like to have more forensics capability built into Kaspersky."
"It should be more secure and detect new malware as it's released."
