We performed a comparison between CylancePROTECT and Sophos EPP Suite 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."The most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure."
"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 is a scalable solution...The initial setup of Fortinet FortiEDR was straightforward."
"Additionally, when it comes to EDR, there are more tools available to assist with client work."
"We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats."
"Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration."
"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."
"Centralized dashboard online which can be used for managing a huge product."
"It secures different entry points into the network."
"Two or three years ago when the WannaCry virus struck, the people that were on Cylance were the ones that weren't affected."
"We are quite security-focused. Blackberry Protect as an endpoint solution for our service really delivers what we are expecting."
"Endpoints are protected in real-time without the need of a centralized server."
"It is extremely simple to manage and deploy."
"The most valuable feature of CylancePROTECT is the support."
"The most functional item that we use is the process to turn off the false flags that it causes."
"It's very simple to use. The managing of the endpoints is very easy."
"We were concerned about the threat posed by malware. The product's effectiveness in addressing this threat and capturing it within the network has been quite helpful."
"The most valuable feature Sophos EPP Suite is that it protects the computer beyond the premise. Whether the user is at home, in the office, or traveling, you are able to apply the policies as the user moves."
"The solution efficiently protects the servers for our customers."
"The solution is easy to set up."
"So easy to deploy and use that you really don't even need their technical support."
"Sophos EPP Suite's most valuable feature is ease of use."
"The product is stable."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"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 encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments."
"ZTNA can improve latency."
"FortiEDR can be improved by providing more detailed reporting."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"The amount of usage, the number of details we get, or the number of options that can be tweaked is limited in comparison to that with other EDR solutions"
"We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels."
"It's a good solution but some features just need to be updated."
"The price for this EPP platform is expensive and could be improved."
"CylancePROTECT could be improved in its technical support and communication."
"The company that sells us the licenses sometimes doesn't know how to do certain things."
"The solution needs better dashboards that are easier to use."
"The management console needs a little maturity in how it presents data and allows the administrator to drill down or search across systems."
"I would say one thing that they might need to bring in is protection for mobile devices."
"The high price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required. The product's price should be more competitive."
"The solution is not easy to use in comparison to other endpoint security solutions."
"It would be ideal if the price could be lowered a little bit."
"Sophos EPP Suite could improve the way it can be installed. They used to have one installer and now they have two, one for the server and one for the client. I don't know the difference, it brings confusion."
"In the next release, I would like to see the phishing attached included in the firewall."
"The solution could improve on the resource management, it is a bit heavy on the resources."
"Lacks delegated administration privileges for large organizations, and differential permissions for admins."
"I would like to have the capability to support legacy operating systems because the majority now don't support Windows XP, and Windows 2000."
"In terms of improvement, the main challenge is setting up VPN connections."
