"Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance."
"Fortinet is very user-friendly for customers."
"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 stable and scalable."
"Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration."
"The stability is very good."
"Fortinet FortiEDR's firewalling, rule creation, monitoring, and inspection profiles are great."
"The most valuable feature is the monitored support behind it."
"The dashboard is beautiful, overall easy of use, and the UBA and NBA features are valued."
"It is quite stable. I would rate the stability of the solution a nine out of ten."
"It is a very stable solution...It is a very scalable solution...The initial setup of Cynet was easy."
"The level of automation is very good because the majority of the time, it blocks the attacks without requiring anything from our side. The technicians don't have to do anything. They are just alerted about what happened. So, the user intelligence works quite well."
"If some unusual activity happens on the network, such as I open administrator sessions in a short duration of an hour on many computers in the lab, it sends me an alert about my network saying that one user opened three, four, or five sessions in one hour. Similarly, if I try to play with the disk size on a computer, it will send me an alert, and it will also stop the operation."
"I have found the continued support and pretty much all the features to be valuable. They all stand out as being positive. It continues to detect unusual activity when it's supposed to, and so far we haven't had any issues."
"We are protecting all our workstations."
"The tool's interface is good."
"find some of the most valuable features to be the anti-malware, encryption, and the EDR launching service."
"The most valuable feature is the central view. With this view, I can see all of the data."
"I like that Kaspersky isn't heavy."
"We found the installation to be very straightforward and the deployment process to be very fast."
"It's flexible, and Kaspersky Endpoint Security's performance is good. Also, the pricing is fine."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business is a strong yet lightweight tool. It allows us to control machines even when disconnected from the network. In offline mode, we can generate passwords and access the system. The policies it offers are robust."
"We swtiched to Kaspersky Endpoint Security because we found our previous solution did not meet our requirements."
"The SIEM could be improved."
"Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office."
"The only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs."
"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 support needs improvement."
"We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels."
"Everything with Fortinet having to do with their cloud services. They need to invest more in their internal infrastructure that they are running in the cloud. One of the things I find with their cloud environment compared to others' is that they go cheap on the equipment. So it causes some performance degradation."
"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."
"Most of their times are in Greenwich Mean Time. I would like to see more local time zones."
"The reporting functionality in Cynet may not be as comprehensive or flexible as desired."
"SIEM - Although with their Centralised Log Management Cynet has created the basis for SIEM functionality, this is to be expanded in the near future."
"I cannot provide more details about Cynet's automation features. While Cynet claims to be automated, the specifics of this automation are unclear. They claim to have a high capability to detect and block attacks, but I am cautious about companies that claim to solve every problem without limitations. It does help in identifying malware on the network but doesn't specifically identify vulnerabilities."
"Automation could be improved, and orchestration could be added to the features."
"The command line interface could be improved."
"Cynet fails to deploy the same technology in mobile devices."
"There is room for improvement in terms of support. The support should be faster to respond."
"It is expensive, it could be cheaper, so I think the solution's pricing could be better."
"I'd like to see them improve encryption and remote management in the future. Kaspersky could also improve its scanning technology. Other solutions have adopted machine learning and deep learning, but Kaspersky still uses signature-based scanning."
"It's does not have the architecture or structure to scale up."
"Kaspersky and most other security products have a lot of modules. They recently added several new ones. You find yourself buying and deploying so many things. There are some modules that everyone uses, like, for example, the orchestration module. Instead of selling them separately, it would be better to have bundles or an all-in-one license."
"The performance of our machines tended to slow down under Kaspersky. That definitely needs to be addressed. I remember I had a pretty good Dell Notebook, and this product slowed it down quite a bit."
"The support must provide quick responses."
"We need a more complete Mobile Device Management (MDM) system."
"From time to time, some users loose connection via the Network Agent."
