"Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance."
"Fortinet has helped free up around 20 percent of our staff's time to help us out."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"The setup is pretty simple."
"NGAV and EDR features are outstanding."
"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."
"Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR."
"It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of Fortinet FortiEDR was straightforward."
"One of the best features of the solution is that it's easy to deploy."
"The most valuable feature of CylancePROTECT is the support."
"I rate the tool a ten out of ten when it comes to the ease of use or management part."
"Its setup is simple if you have a Windows device; it is executable."
"What's most valuable in CylancePROTECT is the optics feature. I also like its easy-to-use and user-friendly dashboard and monitoring system."
"I like the AI and mathematical components that they use."
"It does a good job of protecting us."
"The Application Guard and ByteGuard are useful features."
"The price per endpoint is excellent."
"I like the security that this solution provides."
"Endpoint Security is efficient and easy to use. It doesn't slow the performance of your personal computer."
"We have over 1,000 users using the solution in our organization and the solution has been able to handle it."
"The user interface is easy to maintain once it is setup."
"The tool's interface is good."
"The most valuable features for us include data security, as well as web browsing and password management security measures."
"We used to have a lot of phishing attacks and all these kind of things for end-users so we decided that we needed endpoint security. We evaluated some solutions and found that Kaspersky is the most appropriate in terms of endpoint security and the speed of the user machine. The encryption is a major factor from our end."
"The SIEM could be improved."
"It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations."
"The only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs."
"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."
"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."
"We've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments."
"The security should be strong for the cloud. Some applications are on-prem and some are on the cloud. Fortinet should also have strong security for the cloud. There should be more security for the cloud."
"Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."
"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 is hard to manage."
"The product does not do a lot of reporting on what it is taking care of. Enhanced reporting would be a welcome improvement."
"Reporting is an area with shortcomings in CylancePROTECT that needs to be improved."
"CylancePROTECT could be improved in its technical support and communication."
"It should have better support for Windows and Mac."
"The OPTICS component could be made more user-friendly with respect to giving people more information."
"We would like to see secure integration and multi-factor authentication to be able to access the administration dashboard."
"It's very heavy and it affects the computer's performance."
"I would like the solution to be able to allow to have end to end security services from the final user to the server."
"I rate the pricing five out of ten."
"If someone has the older version of the solution, and wants to install a newer version, they must remove all of the previous applications. Otherwise, there will be issues with the solution."
"The solution could be more secure."
"The reporting portion of the solution is quite weak."
"It is hard to maintain the software and upgrade."
"This product could be improved by integration with Linux. The one limitation this product has is that it's not compatible with and doesn't offer protection for Linux servers. It could also be easier to configure."
